Of an actress new to this city we
observe this startling claim:
tShe as the champion croquet
player of Australia"
The declaration startles. not be-

else was the champion croquet player
Of Australia but because it is so rare
to read that anybody is croquet cham

Croquet has been neglected by the
masses. They will go miles and wait
hours to see Big GEORGE KELLY whale
out home run. They will cross
continents and pay $50 to observe
JACK DEMPSEY soak somebody on
the beezer. They win food the Yale
bowl to see lads toy with football.
But never is there a hullabaloo about
croquet; never headlines thus:

Board viii Submit u. S.
Mail Debts to Congress
Bullitt Completes Investigation
OF Obligations OF Former
Ship Company

The question OF payment of obliga-
tions which the Shipping Board may
assume from the former United States
Mail Steamship Company probably will
be passed along to Congress, Marshall
Bullitt. special counsel for the board,
said yesterday.
Mr.. Buliitt said thai the investiga-
tion Of the debts of the company had
practically been completed This shows
claims from the reconditioning of the
ex-German ships chartered to the COM
pany of s2,493 900 and claims from op-
erations of $2,100, 900. total Of 4,593,-
coo. A large part of these might be
just obligations for payment by the
board Mr.. Bullitt declared, but many
viii be contested. 1t is practically GER
tain that Congress will be asked for an
appropriation to cover the necessary
expenses, he said.
Counsel for the board will cross-ex-
anime the Mayors, former heads of the
United States Mail Company, when the
case is heard in the courts, it was
learned yesterday.
The looks of the company were in a
state Of confusion when the board took
them over, Mr.. Bullitt said. AS re-
suit it has been necessary for the at
torneys to ask the creditors for the
original records to give an accurate
outline Of the situation.
