The name of every contributor to
this home paper service will be pub

of everyone entered for a subscription
will be published as well as the num-

If the amount of money received

and there where tiny stars are turned
from blue to gold, where anguish grips
the heart, the nation stands in silence

POTTER CLAMPS DOWN
LID ON ALL SPORTS

PHILADELPHIA. Jan. 26.-The
sport lid will be clamped down tight
on all Mondays Fuel Administrator
GARFIELD has set aside for the suspen-
sion OF business.
Starting next Monday. the authorf-
ties will tolerate no sporting ventures
to be open.
The action was taken by William
Potter. fuel administrator of Pennsyl-
vania, who declared that all boxing
clubs. pool and billiard rooms. basket
hall matches. indoor track meets and
every other form OF sport must sus
pend on heatless Mondays.
Only the theaters and movies will
be permitted to open. Last Monday
boxing clubs ard other forms OF sport
we're running full blast. and il was be
lieved that they were classed as
Amusements. like theaters and movies.
But 4 new Interpretation comes
from Washington and now all sport
must be closed down Mondays.
The new Interpretation OF the law
affected the Olympia A. n, which
gives its weekly program on Monday
nights. Business Manager Leo Rains
conferred with Mr.. Potter yesterday
afternoon and was told that he must
not open Mondays.
Mr.. Rains said he would obey the
mandate and change the weekly Olym-
pia show to Tuesday nights. On this
night none OF the thesters Is open. so
boxing and other indoor sports will
have a clear field.
