WINS NINE VARSITY
LETTERS IN SPORT
Rudolph Payor of Erasmus a
Leading All Round
Scholastic Star.

The rare combination of a scholastic
record of covering four year high
school course in three years and never
failing in a subject. and an athletic
record OF nine varsity letters IN four
sports-football track, baseball and bas-
ketball--is credited to Rudolph "Bub-
bies'. Payor Of Erasmus Hail Payor
made every scholastic football team in
this vicinity and in the other sports
he is in the>sclect group of topnotchcrs.
Which college he will attend next fall
Is still a matter of doubt. hut the choice
has narrowed down TO Brown. Dart
mouth and Columbia.
Although New York elementary
school graduate, business affairs OF hts
parents made a sudden change To Pitts
burgh necessary, and Young Payo-
started his high school days in Cres-
son High. situated on the outskirts OF
the Smoky City. In his freshman year
Payor vert out for the football. track,
baseball and basketball teams. and
made his letter In each. The second
year he repeated nd established him
self as the best all round athlete in
cresson.
Weighing only 148 pounds at that
time. Payor was a sensation on the
gridiron. He played halfback, where
his ability to plunge or flash through
any kind OF ield was utilized to a
marked degree. In one contest he ran
92 yards from kickoff for touchdown
In track he was none the less brill
liant In the single meet held there. a
county affair, in which sixteen schools
were entered. he made a remarkable
showing IN the sprints and in the field
events In his first competition he ran
dead heat FOR first In the 100 yard
dash in IL seconds fiat, and accom-
plished % 3-5 seconds In the 220 yard
dash. winning that event In the same
meet the following year Bubbles took
first in the 100 yard dash in 10 AS Sec
onds. second In the running ,road jump
with II feet inches. and second In the
standing jump. an event not contested
here. with 3 feet Z inches.
He caught on the nine. and proved
power with the stick. In his second
year he batted close to 500. and made
but three bad pegs 10 second He was
hardy youth who took a chance 1T
stealing "A base with Payor behind the
bat. He played center and guard on
the basketball team.
When Payor moved back to this city
In 1921 he entered Chnton.--but after a
week at the school lie transferred TO
Erasmus the school nearest his home in
Flatbush. His football work last year
earned for him all-scholastic recognl-
tion. While basketball Is not an import
ant factor In the F'latbush institution.
Payor devoted his attention to the squad.
Payor will make his farewell bid to
high school athletics on the track team
this spring, with the certainty that he
will add another insignia 10 his collec-
tion. He Is running in fine form at
present--in practice has approached 10

that Francis Hussey has never been

The one outstanding figure where stale

case Of Bob Gardner. and no doubt his
college training in track athletics mas
done much toward telling him when he
was approaching the edge Of fitness and
too much play. The time will probably
come when colleges viii have golf
trainers who will prescribe for the play

general copying Of methods by the rank
and file of championship golfers.

Mrs. Hanan's Estate Must
Pay for Mourning Fur
Court Rules Husbands Prop.
erty Should Not Be Taxed for
S3.354 Baby Lamb Coat

The Appellate Division decided yes
terday that the estate of Mrs. Edith
+. Hanan and not the estate of her
husband. John H. Hanan. should pay
the claim of s3,334 of the Bergdorff &
Goodman Company for & baby lamb
coat bought by Mrs. Hnnan.
The executors of &c estate of Mrs
Hanan opposed the claim, declaring
that it should be paid out of the
estate of her husband. 1t was admit
ted that Mrs. Hanan had several other
fur coats. The one in question, a
black Persian lamb coat. was neces-
sary. it has been said, because Mrs.
Hanan was in mourning for brother
of her husband and she had no other
black fur coas. The executors also
contended that the wife of very
wealthy man should not be limted
in the matter of owning fur coats, but
should have two, or even three, of a
kind If she desires it.
The Bergdorff & Goodman Con rany,
in reply to the contention of her cXeCu-
tors said that trade smcn might hesi-
tate to sell to people of wealth, if the
extraordinary wealth of a husband is
to be used as trap. The plaintiffs
obtained a Judgment in the Supreme
Court against the estate Of Mrs.
Hanan, which was appealed, but the
Appellate Division upheld the view
that the estate of the wife and not
that of the husband was liable for the
mourning fur coat
