MD. RACING BOARD
Says Private Business Too
Pressing-0ther Withdrawals
Are Regarded Probable.

BALTIMORE, Aprils s.-Joseph p.
Kennedy resigned last night from the
Maryland Racing Commission, OF
which he has been a member since It's
organization last July.
The resignation was made In a let
ter to Governor Ritchie, in which
Kennedy states that recently acQuir-
ed business interests prevent him
from devoting the time he feels neces-
sary for the proper performance OF
his duties as a racing commissioner.
The resignation of Kennedy marks
the passing OF the first Of the several
appointees of Governor Ritchie which
were of a purely personal, rather
than OF a political, nature.
Some of these appointees, generally
regarded as favored members OF the
governors oficial family, have been,
according to generally expressed be-
liefs, the chief cause for the weaken
ing of the prestige with which the
Ritchie administration entered office.
That the original prestige OF his
administration has been considerably
weakened, Governor Richie Is now
realizing. The realization In par
ticularly keen because Of the COVER
nors earnest desire to get through
the legislature his program of admin
istrative reform which he believes
will put Maryland on a more eficient
basis than that on which any other
State in the Union rests.
To accomplish this program the
governor. it is reported. is determined
to forget everything else; and "every-
thing else" Is said to include some OF
these appointees. If. to silence some
of the major criticisms of his admin
istration, 1t will be necessary to cut
off the official heads of some of those
now reputed to be his closest advisers,
the governor is reported ready to
perform the decapitation.

THE ASSOCIATIVE SPIRIT.


AS you look over any Ameri-

how universally the idea pre-

working itself out. Just as soon
as the pioneers begin to get their
breath and look around and plan
out their common existence,
they begin to form organiza-
zions to accomplish certain def
mite ends.
Old world towns also have so
cial forces fairly well organized.
But this spirit is more highly
developed in this country than
! elsewhere. The Americans are a
restless and determined people.
always looking on toward larg-
er accomplishment.
In any live community there
are a lot of things that people
want that they have not gor
1t is their first instinct to get
together and attempt to accom-
plish by united force, what the
individuals could not accomplish
separately.
1t is astonishing what a group
of people can achieve when they
unite for a common end. Indi-
vidually they might seem COM
monplace or insignificant, and
people would regard the express

a common purpose, their sepa-
rate individualities are fused in

notice.
n Organizations are the machin-

ference schedule Friday night,
when they set back the quintet

lop-sidded score Of 29 to IL. The
game began very slowly and
most attempts at baskets went
awry. This half ended with
Wentworth leading IL to A, Mis-
souri, making only one basket
and two free throws.
In the second half Wentworth
speeded up and made II points.
Their work in this half was at
times brilliant. The passing was
snappy and with Walter and
Pratt under the basket, only a
second was needed to score.
Here, too, Fannin, who surpass-
ed them all in floor work began
to count with throws from about
the free-throw fine. On the 9TH
er hand Missouri was unable to
penetrate Wentworth's defense
