no difficulty in closing negotia-

That these games will be

BELMONT PARK, N. Y, Sept.
13.-The forty-first renewal of the
historic Futurity stakes. eldest,
richest and most distinguished of
American racing classics. will be
run at Belmont Park today.
One of the finest fields of two
year-olds ever to face a starting
barrier has been named in the
overnight entries. The winner
will earn the right to the cham
'pionship crown of the juvenile
division.
A crowd estimated at close to
$1,000 will be on hand to cheer
the winner home.
The forty-first renewal is likely
to be one of the hardest fought
revivals of the famous American
stake. More than a dozen named
is the overnight entries look to
have a fair chance at the win
ming share of the purse.
G. d. Widener's JameetOwn,
son of st. James Mile. DaZie,
winner Of five of his starts is
likely to parade to the post
public choice.
Jamestown has won the admira-
ton of the racing world by the
courageous way he has stuck to
his knitting in all his races. The
plucky colt carried the top bur-
den of 130 pounds when he lost to
G. A. Cochran'S Epithet, son of the
great French star, Epinard, in the
Hopeful Stakes at Saratoga. Epi-
thet was in receipt of 13 pounds
from jamestown in that classic.
Today the pair will be meeting
on even terms. Both stars must
shoulder 1870 pounds. This is
going to make a heap of differ.
ence in the way they finish.

-VERY|TFID>NG
MhEH0ZMAH

CHICAGO, Sept. 13. - Still
another ex.Washington ball player
may do a comeback with his old
pals. Ed Kenna, sturdy receiver
of the Chattanooga Lookouts. will
likely be among those present
when the Griffmen report at
Biloxi next spring.
Kenna, who was purchased
from Minneapolis midway in 1928,
showed not at all badly during his
brief fling with washington. As
a matter Of fact some wonderment
was caused when he was turned
back to Minneapolis a year ago.
Ed Jared not so well with the Mil
Iers in 1929 Therefore his pur-
chase by Chattanooga this season
was taken as a matter OF course.
Since transferring to the
LOOkOuts Kenna has evi-
denced much of his old prom
ise, not only has he stood out
as a Southern Association re-
ceiver, but his OppOrtune
hitting also argues in his
favor.
The Washington Club is badly
in need of an experienced back
stop. And Kenna, backed by a
years major seasoning, will
likely fit in snugly with Walter
JohnSon'S plans. When Ed was
released to Minneapolis in 1929
his only comment was:
"Ill be back"
He probably had little idea. at
the time, that he would renew his
association with the team that
gave him his first big league
start.
Rumor has it that Red Har-
grave, newly acquired Washing
ton receiver, may transfer to
Chattanooga in 1881.
Certain it is that if Kenna is
disposed of Chattanooga will
need another catcher. And, if
the circumstances warrant it,
Washington will probably ex-
perience little difficulty in getting
waivers on Hargrave.
Hargrave, who reported in st.
Louis yesterday, will likely be
used exclusively as pinch hit
ter for the remainder of the sea-
son. Determined to fight to the
finish, Manager Walter johnson
declares Roy Spencer will handle
the brunt of the catching here
after.
For financial reasons as
much as anything else, the
Washington club was more
than glad to check out Of st.
Louis last night. Only 2,4S6
paid admissions were recorded
during the three-game series
at SpOrtsman's Park.
In other words, fewer than 900
cash customers per game were on
hand when the Brownies copped
two of three starts from their arch
rivals.
The Washington club is still in.
terested in Carl Reynolds. hard
hitting outfielder Of the Chicago
White SoX. Fred Schultz, of the
Browns, is also being considered.
Certain it is that Clark Griffith
must bolster his outfield before
1881.
If Reynolds is landed he will
see plenty of service. Primarily
he will be available to protect
Sammy Rice if an emergency
arises. And again, If necessary.
he can alternate with Sam West
in center field.
Although Reynolds is the man
most desired, Schultz, good pail
player despite periodical sieges Of
stomach trouble, could also fill
the bill in an emergency.
Clark Griffith. figuring on a
1891 pennant winner, will ur1-
doubtedly talk trade during the
winter season. And don't be
surprised if he follows through
with more than one.

SURVEY SHOWS

That nearly every school in the

the results obtained from the re

Quoted the survey and each room
in every SCHOOL was given test. in
the various subjects taught =, we'll
rs the group intelligence tcsts.
The average for Inc room was
compared with The established
norms and it was then possible to
compare the groups achievement
n compared to the normal. \ com
Plctc record Of each child's work
in the tests is available as we'll Is
thc group records.
The value of such survey lies
in the fact TINT il shows exactly
where the teaching is strong and
where it is weak, enabling the
teacher to lay less emphasis on
work which is above the average
and devote more time to those sub
iccts in which the children axe
weak
As an example, nearly every
school in the CITY was above the
average in regard to reading, bat
in a number Of g~9dcs, the average
for arithmetic was below the norms.
Teachers in these grades can well
afford TO spend less time on read
ing and more on arithmetic
These surveys are oi' aid both

shown the test results in
each school, 50 that the individual
teacher can see where she is weak
