nonia and the effects OF the

Before she swallowed the
poison, the girl had three mys-

he has not revealed AT one Of
the conferences the girl Is said
BY police to have told Shearer
she had q pistol and poison In

Met by appointment
The Rev. Mr.. Shearer said his
first meeting with the girl was
in the lobby Of the Lafayette
Hotel by appointment. He called
the attention of the clerk to the
girl and the time she left him,
for his own protection, he said.
The girl never had anyone with
her when she came to see him.
the Rev. Mr. Shearer said. Some
one was always near when he
met her at their several confer
enceS, he asserted.
He knows Of no one In Wash

has no idea who she actually Is,
the Rev. Mr.. Shearer told the re-

FUCHS OVERPLAYED
HIS HAND AS PILOT
Judge Long on Courage, but
Errs in Holding on to
Reins Too Long.
. BY WALTER TRuMBULL.

FUDGE EMIL FUCHS made no
mistake in appointing himself
manager of major league base
49, ball club. 1t was merely that he
picked the wrong team.
If Judge Fuchs had possessed the
forethought to appoint himself manager
Of the Athletics, the Yankees, the
Giants, the Pirates the Cubs, or either
of the st. Louis clubs, he might not
have won flag but he surely would
have been hailed as remarkable
strategist.
There was another thing he might
have done, and that was to retire at
the proper moment. On Sunday, April
az, for example, the Boston Braves were
in first place. Suppose that Judge
Fuchs had, with great foresight, dis
covered important business In Europe
about that time.
The worst of which he could have
been accused would have been of run
ming out on his team, but it would have
been in an hour of prosperity Prob
ably he would have been hailed as the
great lost leader, and much would have
been written Of the triumph that might
have ensued If he had remained in
command.
1t looks as If the Judges one mis-
take was In overplaying his hand. His
courage was great, but his Judgment
bad. He held on little too long.

pigeon flyer of the District Of
l. L Columbia for 1929 by virtue of
having won the average speed
for three 506-mile races from Cleveland,
Tenn, participated in by the racing
pigeon clubs of this city.
In the first race, flown on June 8,
there were a. lofts competing. The
first bird and its speed to each loft was
as follows: Hile, 6l2: Simpson, GIL:
Worch. 500; Copenhaven, SEQ: Bethesda
Loft, 565; Heine, 500; Flaherty, sac;
Kaufman, 500: Matthews, 442, and
to reach home the second day. The
race was a smash" the birds having
to contend all the way against north
east winds.
In the second race. on June Is. the
winners were Copenhaven, l,07e; Fla
herty, 1,o76, and lille, 1851. These were
the only returns for the first day, the
birds again having winds and rain to
contend with.
Mr.. Hile won the championship on
June 90, when he captured the third
race by 1875 yards. The others were
Flaherty, l,274; Lyons, l,273; Copen-
haven, l,272, and Worch, 1871.

And then Bobby missed two puts Of

the championship: the round of 10 that
finally let him into tie and the worst
round Of golf Jones ever has played In
an open championship since 1921. Per-
haps Jones was slipping on the putting
green. For those puts were missed at
time when the pressure was bearing
down hard. Either one Of them would
have won the championship outright
had it been holed. Bob Jonas looked bad
on the putting green when the pressure
was bearing down.
But then he holed 12-footer on the
last green to tie!

round Of the championship was played
