Zerolene, because we employ only selected crude

third less than eastern oil

WINTER SPORTS LOSE
Outlay for Olympic Events 5000, 900
Francs. Inccme 100000.

Paris. April 5.-The winter sports
competitions held recently at Cha
monk as part of the Olympic games
proved a success in every respect with
the exception of the financial returns.
An outlay of 100000 francs
brought,i in gate receipts of only 250.-
900 francs. The excessive number Of
free tickets was responsible for this
as the attendance was never below
1000 a day.
Notwithstanding the financial loss
there was no disappointment because
the Olympic authorities expected it.
Of the fund for the winter games the
city of Chamonix subscribed 100000
francs. the French government half n
million and the Department Of the
Haute Sayoie similar amount.
The loss is partly offset by the fact
that the take-off and slides for ski
jumping. the bob sleigh chute and the
stands and dressing rooms at the skat-
ing rink are all permanent and in the
future are expected to increase the
prestige of Chamonix as a winter re-
sort.

If Pitchers Come Through,
Hendricks May Lead Gin.
cinnati Team to Flag That
Moran Felt Sure His Team
Would Win This Year.
BY JOHN Il. FOSTER.

Copyright by The San Antonio Light.
Orlando. Fla, April 5.-Tarrying
late at Orlando to obtain the best re-
suits of training here where the sooth-
ing air favors old ball players, the
Cincinnati Reds are trying TO get
themselves into shape to win the PEN
nant that Pat Moran was confident
would come their way this season.
No National League team ever
trained under sadder conditions. All
winter the Cincinnati players had
dreamed of winning the championship
under Moran's leadership. Even
while the defeat of the Giants by the
Yanks in the world series was the up
permOst topic Of baseball. Moran was
scheming ways and means of winning
the 1924 title.
Il think my chance has come"
Moran told the writer at Chicago dur
ing the wintr. Il firmly believe will
be able to defeat New York next sea-
son. My team is unchanged except
for the pitchers where / think l have
added great strength"
And then, just as the training sea-
son opened. Moran fell i'll and died.
= ne CuTTltu WITH nllu the pan VI CuIl-
paign he had mapped out for the sea-
son. Probably, however, his idea was
to perfect as much as possible team
batting methods that would score the
run or two which the Reds so often
failed to get in 1923.
Must Play For Runs.
At any rate. this is the theory that
Jack Hendricks, who knew Moran and
his ways. is trying to work out. 1t
is a system which is essential to
team like the Reds. most of whom have
passed the stage where they can be ex-
pected TO do anything radical. Youth
is too far behind them for that. They
must get all they cen out of straight
forward plugging for every run in
sight by the sacrifice and hit-and-run
game. They are not fast enough to
run loose on the bases. .
Il have found every player on the
team ready and willing to cooperate
with me-" says Hendricks gratefully.
Not one of them has thrown the
slightest hindrance in my way. Some
people have said that it would be very
hard for me to take Moran's place,
because his ways and methods had be-

Lawsuit Develops Fact
That Parisians Dined
on Irish Race Horses

Paris, Apr. 5.-'Irish race horse
stew" was the Characterization
French judges applied to story,
lfnfolded in the Paris courts today,
of how two race horses bred and
owned by David Brindley of Dub
lin, and shipped to Pierre Vert
heimer. in Paris, with the intention
that they become stable mates of
the great Epinard, instead of flash
ing past the winning posts to the
plaudits of the multitude by
strange irony of destiny ended their
careers in the frying pans of kitch-
ems in the Paris slums.
Brindley sued Wertheimer for
10000 francs as payment for the
two Irish jumpers, Villora and
Mediator, which were shipped TO
Epinard's owner in 1922, after
Brindley alleged, Wertheimer had
accepted his terms and conditions.
Wertheimer contended that ne
never bought the horses but accept
ed them merely on trial, and turn
ed them over to Eugene Leigh, the
American trainer, with orders that
they be fed and taken care of until
the Irishman disposed of them.
Leigh later applied to Wertheim-
or for the amount of the horses
board. Wertheimer referred him
to Brindley who in turn told them
to collect from Wertheimer. Leigh
declared that, buffeted between
Wertheimer and Brindley for sew
eral months. he finally lost patience
and sold the horses for 14O0 francs
to Paris butcher shop licensed to
sell horse meat to its customers.
Judgment in the case will be
given next week.

BY WALTER CAMP.

Copyright by The San Antonio Light.
New York, April 5.-One of the
most drastic steps taken by the foot
ball rules committee to prevent STALL
ing was the giving of arbitrary power
to the referee to refuse to take time
out when, in his judgment, a team at
tempts unfairly to gain time, by send
ing in substitutes or by other means.
Another rule which is expected to
have quite an effect on efforts to de.
lay the game is that which provides a
more severe penalty for captains TAX
ing time out too frequently in half.
Under the old rule, n CAPTAIN could
take time out three times in a half
without penalty. Thereafter, a pen-
atty of two yards was inflicted for
each taking of the time out. The rule
allows time out four times in a half,
but makes the penalty for additional
delays five yards for each offense.
The committee also voted to author
lze the field judge to increase his
sphere OF operations by assisting the
referee and other officials in the mat.
ter of determining fouls. A special
committee consisting of Messrs. Var
nell. Okeson and Morice was named
to draft a more definite extension of
the duties of this official, to be acted
upon at the 1926 meeting.
The 1924 referee probably will
pack" a gun-not to enforce his de-
crees, but to use in place of his whis-
tie to indicate the expiration of a
period. Committee members from the
Pacific Coast reported that the pub.
lie out there was much pleased at the
innovation of pistol shots to mark the
end of periods and it was generally
understood that the practice would be
brought East. 1t has always been a
bit confusing not to know whether the
referees whistle was for time out or
for the end of a period.

And there's the player limit. All
right, Bob Coleman. it's your job.
The Austin ball club is in town
Saturday and the Bruin manager will
have furyher opportunity to study
closely his surplus talent. Gradually
he'll form his opinions and six pitch
ers and three outfielders will stand
out as better than the rest.
Plays Two Games Here.
Austin plays the Bears Saturday
at o'clock and Sunday at 3.
George Brovold says he's ready TO
play third base again. the sore thumb
having improved somewhat. But
Coleman may give him few days
more of rest and keep Everett Booze
at the hot corner a while longer.
Everett. tits said, sparklcd at this
task in the two games played at
Austin.
Fans are hereby requested not to
be too hard on infielders until the
experiment now being conducted on
the grounds at League Park is COIN
pleted. The infield looks smooth but
under the light covering Of loose dirt
it is hard as concrete and. in places.
knobby. Bad hOpsr are likely to be
plentiful for a time. But. after the
Austin series, the whole infitld will
be oiled and raked deep and a vel
vety top is expected TO be the result.

Reds Hopes for Pennant Are
Built on the Hurting CORPS

come a part of the clubs scheme. /
haven't found single player who has
even suggested that what ] propose
would not have been Pats way. I'm
not going to borrow trouble when
men are so willing to do the right
thing"
ROush's Presence Counts.
One point must not be overlooked
which favors the Reds. Roush is with
them at the very start of the season.
In other years he has not reported for
spring training because of salary diff
ferences. This year he looks fit and
is fielding beautifully. If his absence
from the team meant a difference of
ten games, as some critics have COM
off. Even five games more in the won
column would go a long way toward
winning the pennant.
The other great factor is the pitch
ers. There is no need to take into ac-
count the remaining infielders and out
fielders who seem to be up to last
years standards. The catchers are
admirable. If the Reds can field and
bat as they did last year. will the
pitchers pull them through?
Luque. the best in the league last
year. looks strong and fit. and is pitch
ing with the easy grace of 1923. Don
ohue is in better shape than he was
this time last spring. Mays is physi-
caly as good as he ever was with the
Yankees. Jake May is wild, but Hen
bricks. who knows him well, says he'll
come through when the season starts.
Sheehan from st. Paul. tall youth
with good arm, looks pretty good and
the opinion has been ventured that he
will become regular pitcher; maybe.
but not right at the start of the sea-
son. Benton is much overweight and
probably will not be at his best at the
start. Rixey is coming along easily.
He may be the left-hander who will
get the first assignment against the
enemy.
All in the Pitching.
If every pitcher could be figured as
600 winner the Reds would be i'm
mediate contenders for the pennant.
The question is whether they can de-
liver that much pitching. Occasion
ally the Reds may turn in a good bat
ting day and run up a big score, but
if they are to win regularly their
pitchers have got to hold the opposi-
ton to low scores. If the Reds win
and it is not at all certain that they
will not-they will win more because
they are one Of the best defensive
teams in the league than because of
any brilliant or concentrated attack.
Cincinnati will try to get off to
runaway start in the West right at
the opening of the season. This open
ing will be the feature of the early
season play. If they succeed. their
stonewall defense may keep them in
the lead.

Putney. England. April 5.-Cam-
bridge University's varsity eight
sprang a surprise today by defeating
the heavier and more experienced Ok
ford crew in the 10th revival of their
historic race on the Thames from
Putney to MOrtlake. The Light
Blues won by four and a half lengths.
Cambridge was leading by quarter
of length at the mile and was two
lengths ahead at the two-mile mark.
Oxford pulled up during the third
mile at the end of which the Cain
bridge advantage had been reduced
to one length.
Dhe official time was 1S minutes,
Al seconds.
Bright sunshine tempered north
east wind. The Oxonians were fav-
critics in the betting at three to one.
Cambridge won the toss and chose
the Surrey or southern side Of the
course. This choice was a surprise
to many of the experts. as it was
generally expected the winner Of the
toss would choose the northern side.
which afforded much protection from
the wind during the first two miles
and at the finish.
