 LOUISVILLE, Ky, March 2-- Walter J. Salmon, New York turf man, who races one of the most pretentious stables in the coun- try, has uncovered possible Kentucky Derby factor in Polar Sea. the gelded son of Polymelian- Snow Cap.
 The three-year-old recently won two straight races at New Orleans and in his second start made an impressive six-furlong sprint over muddy track. His winter racing should benefit him i'm mensely. as it gives him an ad- vantage in his Derby training that the colts, geldings and fillies re- tired at the close of the Kentucky and Eastern meetings will not possess. The majority of these horses are now in training.
 Many horsemen consider this short period of preparation dan. gerous in that some trainers have tendency to rush their charges. Leg trouble often develops to ne- cessitate retirement of the racer until the injury heals.

HEENEY GETS DECISION
 OYER DELANEY IN HARD
 FOUGHT Is ROUND BOUT

NEW YORK, March 2-The heavyweight ambitions of Jack Delaney crumbled once again, this time before the bull-like iron jawed batterer from New Zealand. Tom Heeney, before a crowd of 1S,000 fans who paid a total of $175.000 to see the fiery heavy weight elimination finals.
 Heeney carried off the decision over the erstwhile French Canadi- an sharpshooter in 15 mauling. bruising rounds.
 It was not a one-sided victory for the blocky square jawed box. CT from the Antipodes but deci- sive nevertheless and was gained as a result of a determined rally in the last four rounds in a strug- gle that was fast if not spectacu- lar, punctuated by bruising cinches.
 Heeney emerged the victor be- cause he was the aggressor all of the way.
 Tom seldom gave Jack chance to get set for knockout swing.
 Outboxed, outsmarted and out stepped by his rival, Heeney nev- ertheless kept charging in, pun ishing Delaney severely about the body with attacks as persistent as damaging.
 Delaney, conceding 20 pounds to his far more rugged rival, stood up gallantly under Toms steady pummeling.
 The sharpshooter's main weap- on was the left hook to the jaw. He used this repeatedly with jar ring effect but it seldom gave more than fleeting impression on the grey and rock like counte- nance of the Anzac

here say they will submit will ingly to the investigation and that every effort will be made to pun, all the evidence before the sen. ate investigators.
 Searles traces the beginning of the trouble to an abrogation of the Jacksonville agreement by the Pittsburgh Coal Company, the largest producing company in America, in August. 1925. About 16,OOO union employees of that company went out of the mines at that time. A little later other owners decided to close their mines, and when the agreement terminated April 1, 1927, the rest of the large operators refused to negotiate a new contract on the scale sought by the miners.
 Operators in Pennsylvania de clare they are running their mines successfully with the non-union labor and profess to see no reason for parleying further with the union. Searles, however. says production has fallen off and that the owners could operate profit ably with union labor under the terms of the Jacksonville con tract. He says the fight sinners down to question of whether the coal fields shall be unionized or not, and asserts that radical agi- tators are in the fields working against the United Mine Workers of America in the hope of taking over leadership of the miners.

escorted the child back to the

the grocer and tell him she had
taken 1t, and ask him II she
might have 1t.
Away down in the small heart,
there was a feeling that she really
should not have taken 1t, also her
pride was hurt at having to ask
for it, but she understood the
WHY of it all, when her mother
said, seriously, but with no trace

never take things which belong

them IL we may" Then the
grocer, who had three children of

to buy my little children warm
clothes, and give them nice
house to live in. II everyone just
came in and took things like you
took the apple, / wouldn't have

more things from stores without
paying for them, because then
the mans little girls won't have
any new dresses
