SHRINE DANCE IS
 SPLENDID AFFAIR

With the pastel shades of the ladies gowns adding color and with the wearing of the Shriners' fez by the gentlemen lending a certain amount of dignity, the Shriners' Dance given last night in the beautiful ballroom of the new Scottish Rite temple proved to be. a most enjoyable affair The ballroom was tasefully decorated with simbols and flags emblematic of the Shriners.
 During intermission, the Shriners and their guests retired to the ban quet hall and were given choice of the following Shrine bill of fare; Cancels Milk, Yum-Yum, Zem-Zem, Oriental Whatnots, Jaybird Salad. Fried Rumble Bees, Baked Palone. Candied Running Birds and Green Persimmons Fried. Most of the guests, however, chose delicious punch and cake.

GIRL ATHLETES DENY SPORTS
 DETRACT FROM THEIR CHARM

E NEW YOi;h, Jan. 19.-Four women athletes came forward to- lay to deny that sports and the "competitive spirit detracted from feminine beauty.
 Dr. Frederick Rand Rogers. state director of health and physical ed ucation, started the controversy when he told the women's division of the National Athletic Fedora tion that competitive athletes make women manly"
 q don't think what Dr. Rogers says is true at all," said Aileen Riggin, former Olympic fancy div CT, who turned professional.
 q have been swimming twelve years and don't see that it has hurt me. Running is a different matter was at Amsterdam as spectator and saw girl runners collapse"
 Competitive spirit i5 the oppo- site or what Dr. Rogers says sa. s Beatrix Loughran, Olympic fancy skating champion. q think i. is the most beautifying thing in our modern life. After all, beauty depends on health"
 Miss Helen Meany, Olympic div CT, considered Dr. Rogers state ment amusing"
 Exercise in the sun and air is good for everyone" she said. q don't see what harm competition could do."
 q do not see how anyone could say anything but that vigorous exercise in the air makes bodies stronger and more healthy and better able to stand the wear and tear of life," said Miss Helen Wainwright, another Olympic swimming star.

SPEED TRIP SOUTH IS NOT HAZARDOUS,
 SAYS K. L. HAYNES

R. l.. Haines, who is going to attempt to beat steamer time from Juneau to Seattle in the spring in a 13-foot sea sled with outboard motor power, when asked as to the dangers involved, replied that he did not consider the risks of the venture as a great personal hazard. That every possible de tall is going to be thoroughly worked out before the actual start from Juneau is shown by the fact that at this early date the motors and the boat have been decided upon and they, with other equip. ment will be shipped from the East as soon as some more minor details are settled.
 An inflated air life raft, distress signals and emergency food sup plies, are to be carried on the trip, expected to take about 55 hours from start to finish. The sea sled type boat will have a speed of 24 miles an hour fully loaded, which speed will enable Haines to gain good margin over any steamer as long as fair weath- CT is experienced and mechanical trouble does not force the little boat out of the running. This is not likely as Haines has had considerable experience in rae ing also having made the long cruise north last summer in an outboard motored boat.
 The trip, acc cording to MT Haines, will be conmercialized only as a last resort. He said that it is his intention to carry some legend boosting Juneau and the country on the boat, which, Of course, would be in the news reel pictures and all other publicity that is given the adventure. The trip to Seattle will be with only four stops for gas and if success ful will be the greatest small open boat achievement on the Pacific Coast and the greatest yet from an out-board motor standpoint, ac- cording to Haines. The attempt is to be made during the last of May or the first of June.

Written For The Associated Press
 LOUISVILLE, Jan. 19-Reigh Counts trip to England marks the first invasion of an American thoroughbred to enter the classics on the flat in a quarter of a cen tury.
 While Billy Barton, an American bred steeplechaser, was sent last fall to train for the Grand Nation- al, in which he finished second, no other American-bred horse has en- tered the major races abroad since the Belmonts, Whitneys and other famous turfmen took their stables overseas in 1912 and 1913.
 In the Belmont contingent were several famous racers, including Tracery, Fair Play and the great sprinter Priscillian, but none were good enough for an Ascot Gold Cup, for which Reign Count will compete. No American-bred has won an English classic since Cap Bells took the Epson Oaks in 1901 in the colors of Foxhall Keene. w c. Whitney won the Epson Derby with Valodyovski the same year, but the latter was a foreign horse leased by the American sportsman for the occasion
 In 1912 Sam Hildreth sent sev. eral of his best racers abroad, but they raced chiefly in France. The stalwarts n c l uded Restigouche Fitzherbert and Novelty, but none succeeded in winning any of the coveted classics.
 Many American turfmen have been successful in late years in winning the historic stakes of both England and France, but with fore ign-bred horses. The late w. H Vanderbilt for years led the win. ming owners of France. A. B Macomber. who races an extensive stable abroad, won both the Cesar awitch and Cambridgesh in 1925 with his Forseti and Masked Mar. vel, but these two horses were bred in France, although both de- seconded from American ancestors ogden Mills. under secretary of the United States treasury. was leading winner in France last year,
 In 1910 John E. Madden leased Sir Martin and many track foilov-- CTS said the colt was an apparent winner of the Epson Derby before he fell at Tatenham Corner. Sir Martin won one or two of the mi nor English fixtures.
