FIND OLD FLINT LOCK
 FORGOTTEN BY PIONEER

LAS CRUCES. N. M., Jan. 23- An antique flint lock rifle, left leaning against a stone in the Ca billo mountains by an absent minded frontiersman, has been found by cattlemen during the an nual roundup in the mountains. The gun was found standing against a rock where it had evi- dently been since it's pioneer own- CT walked away nearly century ago.
 The makers name is stamped on the lock. and inquiries have revealed that the gun was made in about 1910. It is surmised that the gun came into New Mexico over the Santa Fe trail in the late twenties, about the time the Santa Fe trade was opened, or it may have belonged to trappers who came into the mountain ter ritory under the Patties in 1924 and with Ceran St. Vrain in 18ZS to catch beaver on the Rio Grands the Gila and the Colorado rivers.

YALE PROFESSOR
 UP AGAINST IS

BERLIN, Jan 23 - Carl F. Schreiber, Yale university profess sor now on sabbatical leave in Germany, finds it embarrassing to have suddenly been projected into the lmelight in Germany. He was principal orator at the Steuben exercises held under the auspices of the Carl Schurz So- ciety, and shared platform honors with Foreign Minister Gustav Stresemann and American Charge daffaires De Witt c. Poole.
 No sooner had the papers re- ported his speech. than hundreds of requests for advice poured in upon him. How can get to Americag Can you tell me any thing about my son who left for America last year?" Wont you help me get position with an American University?" These were some of the typical requests.
 "I find that America is still the promised land for many Ger mans" Schreiber observed to the Associated Press. They seem to think 1t is the easiest thing in the world to find a job for them. might as well open up an eni- ployment office, he humorously added. Then, becoming serious, America could we'll be proud Of many of the earnest. industrious Germans who'd like to become American citizens"

BERLIN. Jan. 23-Gray haired but otherwise youthful and lively, Germany's oldest pony, Rich" is spending it's declining years on the stud oi Herr Weinberg near Frankfort-on Main.
 Until quite recently, Rich" was one of the most popular horses on German race tracks. Its special task was that of accompanying nervous horses to the tracks. For twenty-four years it performed this service for the horses of the Weinberg stud.
 Rich" was imported thirty years ago from Argentina as a polo pony. Gray hair about the eyes and grey spots on various other parts of the body are thu only outward signs of its advanc. ing age.

By F. C. voSBURGH Creature Service Sports Editor,

(Feature Service Sports Editor,
 NEW YORK, Jan. 23-Ameri- ca's efforts to retain the track and field supremacy of the world in the Olympics next summer de- spite the Nurmis, Wides and Pelt- gers of Europe have begun to the tune of Lloyd Hahn's pounding feet
 This sturdy Nebraska middle distance star who runs under the colors of the Boston A. A. is starr ing in on the indoor boards where world records and a victory over the Swedish sensation, Edwin Wide, to his credit
 In his first start at New York recently, Hahn sped a half-mile in 1:53 4-5, missing world record only because the track was not marked off in accordance with the rules.
 His participation in the annual series of indoor athletic carniva's in the east this winter is part of well-laid campaign which began in his home town of Falls City. Neb., and may end at the finish line of the 800 or 1.500 meter event or both at Amsterdam. Holland.
 Trained Carefully
 After his spectacular perform ances of last winter, Hahn retir- ed to his Nebraska home to awalt the coming of the present indoor season. There he contented him self with keeping in condition. With the coming of cold weather he turned east and after tuning up for a few weeks in Boston an nounced himself ready for fair ly active indoor season.
 If Hahn can beat off the young CT generation of American chal- lengers and regain his Olympic berth, he hopes to do consider ably better in the games at Am sterdam than he did at Paris m 1924. In the 1,500 meter event there which Nurmi won Hahn could finish no better than sixth.
 Nurmi then was at the top of his career, winning four first places.
 Hahn, on the other hand, has come a long way since then, mak- ing his greatest achievements ir- doors. In 1925 he surpassed Nur- mis indoor record for mile in a race in New York, set worlds record of 3:55 4-5 for 1,500 meters indoors at Washington; and clip ped 2-5 of a second off Nurmi's mark for the three-quarter mile run. Last winter he set new worlds. records for the 1000 yards and 1000 meters events and de- feated Wide by four yards in mile race in which he came with in a fifth of second of the worlds record.
 Best on Boards
 If the Olympic events were run on boards, Hahn probably could make any of the Europeans step including Peltzer at his own fay orite distance of half.mile and Nurmi at 1.500 meters. Should Hahn come up to expec- tations outdoors. there is a strong possibility he might be given double duty in the 800 and 1.500 meter events with the probable task of beating Peltzer in the one and Nurmi in the other. TheJe events have been favorite double-up in Olympic history. Mel Shepard, now engaged in efforts 10 produce American distance run ners who can beat the Films, achieved victories in both in 1908.
