SPORTS
10000 FANS
TOW|TNESS
AUTORACE
It
BY DAVIS J. WALSH

ny DANAS y. WfAAoN
NEW YORK, May 21.-Hap-
piness is only relative and so,
when am assured today that
the greatest crowd an American
sport feature has ever known
will achieve satisfaction Of its
soul hunger, or something, by
witnessing the 500-mile auto
mobile race at Indianapolis on
Memorial Day, the information
is accepted without question.
Satisfaction, indeed, should know
no bounds after 500 miles OF
automobile racing. 1t ought to
feel so good when they stop.
AS a matter of fact, the appeal
of this event is immemorlal, al
most incorrigible. It did business
with 10000 persons last year,
thus placing it beyond compari-
son with anything else that
American sport can vouchsate'
and the word now is that, If 1t
doesn't draw 10000 this time,
they are thinking of throwing IL
back in again in order to comply
with the game laws.
The Indianapolis race
needs nObody's approval. 1t
is the only thing America
has that compares with the
English derby at EPSON, with
this exception: They won't
take haircut money at the
gate.
The latest check up, according
to official figures, shows that
there are less than 5000 seats
left in a grandstand that accom-
modates 10000 and this takes no
cognizance of the 212 miles of
track, around which the parking
spaces for motor car parties are
allotted. Perhaps football and
boxing would outdraw it, were it
possible for 175,000 people to see
either of them without first prov
ing their fitness by writing Lin
coins Gettysburg address on the
head of a pin. The point is that
neither football nor boxing can
or ever will outdraw it.
The formers bumper attend
ance is the 10000 crowd that
witnessed the Notre Dame-South-
ern California game at Chicago
last fall. Boxing's high-water
mark, numerically and liquidly,
was the Dempsey-Tunney fight
at Philadelphia, where 10000
souls are presumed to have
peered knowingly at the proceed
ings.
This pair just about rep
resents the limit attendance
for both sports. More people
won't see boxing and foot
ball conducted. They won't
because they can't.
There are no secrets at the In
dianapolis event If a man leaps
unerringly through the rail and
into the hospital. he does so quite
without the benefit of privacy.

ing q rare lithographic print Of
George Washington, valued at
$4,000. The 81 that he passed
over the counter was for the
dirty old frame.
When Milholland was asked
$40 for the print he refused to
pay such a sum. remarking that
the picture was nothing but .
newspaper clipping.
The newspaper clipping" how
ever, has developed into q print
adjudged by authorities to be
the greatest likeness of the lirst
President. The print is also a
rarity much priced In art circles
which was made in the early part
OF the nineteenth century by
Rembrandt Peale, one of the
11rSt Americans to venture into
the art Of TYPOGRAPHY.
Another portrait made by the
same artist was bought some so
years ago by the United States
Government for $4,000. to be
hung in the Capitol. That por-
trait, however, is considered in

 WITH SUICIDE PLAN
Despondent Man Saved From Killing Himself
 by Police

Frank Verdi, 35, of g Star street, became discouraged last night and determined to end his life with q knife, he told Judge M. D. Saxe ill police court today. He was charged with breach of the peace and car rying a knife without a permit from Chief Hart of the police department, and was fined s25 and costs on the first charge, judgment being sus- pended on the second.
 Officers Daniel J. Cosgrove and James Sullivan testified to making the arrest and finding Verdi with the knife, at his boarding place. He was about to go out to stab him- self, the policemen were informed.
 Questioned by Prosecuting Attor- ney Woods, Verdi said he had nc intention whatever of killing anyone but himself. He admitted that he had been drinking.
 Judge Sake advised Verdi to be more careful of his conduct in the future and leave liquor alone. When you feel discouraged so to bed until you feel better" the court con- cluded.
 Prosecuting Attorney Woods agreed with Judge Sake that 1t was not a typical case of carrying con- cealed weapons. as Verdi had just picked up the knife from the table and had not gone out with 1t con- . cealed about his person.

MAYOR WALKER IN EXHAUSTED STATE
Doctor Says He Has Breakdown From Over-
 work at Desk

New York, April 26 R1Mayor James J. Walker was confined to his home today with what his physi- elan described as complete physical and nervous exhaustion, due to over work"
 The mayor was directed by Dr. William Schroeder, Jr., to remain at home and in bed for at least a week and during that period to receive no visitors He also ordered that the patient be kept entirely free from all cares of office. At the end of the week, Dr. Schroeder said. he would determine whether it would be necessary for the mayor to leave the city for a longer and moro com- plete rest period.
 The news of Mayor Walkers ill- ness came as a surprise to city hall yesterday. He had complained late ly of severe headaches but had con- tinued to fulfill the varied and heavy program demanded of his of- flee.
 This afternoon he was to have reviewed the annual police parade and tonight to have presided as toastmastcr at the Jefferson Day dinner of the National Democratic club. Both engagements have been cancelled. During the mayors ill., ness his office will be filled by Jo- seph V. Mckee, president of the board of aldermen.

Numbers on Revolvers
 Clue in Waltham Case

Waltham, Mass, April 26 (UP)- Numbers of two new revolvers found beside the body of Joseph Collura, 51, Waltham hootlegger, in an alley near the First Baptist church here early yesterday today constituted the most substantial clues to the slayer or slayers.
 State police and Waltham detec- tives believed Collura was put on the spot" because he failed to listen to demands of racketeers that he abandon bootlegging.
 Collura served a three-month sen- tence on a rum charge a year ago. Police said they found a bottle of "alcohol splits'' on his person.

DISPUTED IOWA TREE

Nearby Eggs Are Matched, Removing Last of Many
 Obstacles

Onawa, Iowa, April 26 R>-The spreading branches of Nonona county famous maple tree have bud ded for the last time. An explosion, a tremor of the weathered trunk, and the old monarch toppled to the ground yesterday-dynamited.
 A month ago county supervisors issued orders that the tree must be removed. A new road was being put through and the tree blocked, the way.
 But when wouhd-be choppers ar rived, an American flag huttered high in the trees branches, placed there by Mrs Ida Reitan, whose father planted the tree half cen- tury ago.
 Supervisors, nonplused, appealed to County Attorney Harry Miller For several days the latter search cd many tonnes of laws but could find no precedent. Then Mrs. Reitan agreed to remove the flag.
 By that time Pete Peterson be- came concerned. He had an incuba- tor full of eggs nearby and implorcd officials to wait until they had matched. The explosion, he said would "addle' them.
 Yesterday the eggs hatched. The tree fell. Monday steam shovcls vii be poking long noses into the earth

 PARKER'S CHOICE.
Throws Whole Administration Weight Behind Court Appointee
BAKER RUM0R CIRCULATED
Report McReynolds Will Retire and That Democrat Will Be Appoint ed-Opposition Weakened By Story, Observers Say.

Washington, April 26 (UP)-The whole weight of the istration, with it's power to punish it's enemies and reward it's friends, was thrown today into the senate breach over the nomination of Judge John J. Parker, southern republican, to the U. S. supreme court.
 While republican leaders were do, ing missionary work among party bolters preparing for the opening Of debate Monday. the inspired Vport that there would soon be a demo- cratic vacancy on the court was arousing senatorial speculation.
 McRcyno!ds to Quit
 An unofficial report that James Clark McReynolds, conservative democratic member of the court IS about to retire and that Newton b. Baker, noted Cleveland attorney may get his place, was being circulated apparently with White House ap- proval. McReynolds, i'll at his home here, declined to comment.
 This news had dhsquieting effect upon democrats who are about to oppose Parker.
 The most optimistic republican polls showed no more than 40 of the 96 senatorial votes was for the North Carolina republican nominee
