CRASHES
PRECEDENT

Charles "Chuck" Egan pays no
attention to precedent, else he
wouldn't have won the Cleland
Cup for the second time. Egan
led the sports writers in their
annual golf tournament yesterday
at the Army War College course
with a net card Of SO. He had
a handicap Of II strokes.
Chuck started off with a burst
of speed and covered the first
nine holes in a So. He found
cred somewhat in the afternoon
but managed to come home in "a
blows.
Walter r. McCalIum was
the low scorer with 35-33-68,
but the handicappers added
four strokes to his card, Civ
ing him ~. This put him
in a three-way tie with A. S.
W., "Gus" Frailey and Henry
TAFT ROdier, who also netted
72 each. Frailey had q gross
SO but was compelled to add
three strokes, while ROdier
crossed SO but deducted II
strokes from his total.
George Simpson set a new
high record with 130 but Simp-
son blames this on his caddy,
Ed Fuller, who refused to dive
into the water for balls that
landed in the Potomac.
The scribes were royalty enter

NEW STADIUM
To Be USED
BY TECH
By JOE HOLMAN

Tech High Schools football
team viii use its brand new ath'
letic stadium as a practice field
this Fall.
And there's a chance that al
least one major game will be
played In the new enclosure, the
GonZaga-Tech game, December s..
AS soon as q financial agree
nlent has been reached the bat
tie site will be made known.
Happy Hardell, miracle man
athletic director Of the Techities,
has announced that, beginning
September 8, Mckinley will repair
to College Park, Md, for warming
up purposes. His team will train
II days.
Hardell, though having good
reserve strength, will be forced to
rebuild his line. The backfield
will present a duet Of quarter
backs featuring Dick Nelson and
AL Reichman.
Bang-up haIf-back last Fall,
Nelson seems destined to get
the call. His able team d.
rectiOn and forward passing
gives him q big edge.
Also young Yznaga, 200-pound
fullback, should do the Manual
Trainers plenty Of good.
Though lacking the polish Of
a Dunbar Goss, Yznaga's power
may go far toward counteracting
the plunging tactics Of Larry
Finckney. Central ace.
Defensively Hardell is center
ing most Of his confidence around
Capt. Kolker, on the line. Kolker,
a team player from first to last,
carries plenty Of drive and fig.
ures to get somewhere.
There's better than an even
chance that the 1881 inter
high baseball series will be
played on the new Mckinley
diamond.
School officials, it is under
stood, are strong for shifting the
scene Of baseball activities from
Eastern and Central to the newly
sodded Tech field.
Even at this early date Happy
Hardell carries a healthy respect
for Central's eleven. Hardell con-
cedes that Larry Pinckney is the
mainStay Of powerful club.
He said today:

REPORT SOUGHT
ON COURT PACT

Prospects for prompt action by
the Senate Foreign Relations
Committee on the new protocol
for American adherence to the
League Court were heightened
today when Senator Swanson
CD of Va, it's principal sup
porter, announced he would aid
in having it reported to the
Senate.
Swanson, who led the success
ful fight five years ago for Amer
ican adherence upon specified
reservations, declared he would
insist upon a favorable report
but otherwise would brook no
delay. He contended the Senate
itself should not act on the
treaty until the long session of
the new Congress.
Senator Borah (R.) of Idaho,
committee chairman, also favors
immediate action. He announced
he would press the treaty to a
decision in the Senate, even
though he opposes it.

TRAFFIC ABUSE.

Charging that Policeman G. ..
Garry, Third precinct, cursed and
abused him in q traffic argument.
october 10, Representative jeff
Busby Of Mississippi appeared at
the Trial Board and told q lively
story Of the encounter.
One bit of the repartee between
the two as reported today by MI.
Busby was that the officer said:
eff You don't keep your mouth
shut, I'll send you to the hos
pital instead Of the police sta
tiOn."
To which Mr.. Busby said he re-
piled:
"H you hit me, you win re-
member it for q long time"
Representative BuSby testified
that the argument began at Seven
teenth and H Streets Northwest,
during the heavy traffic at $50
o'clock, when Policeman Garry
stopped him from crossing the in
terSection. He testified that the
policeman came over to his car,
and, after arguing about the
traffic, jumped into the car and
cursed him. Then came an order
to drive to the Third precinct.
The car in which the two were
riding started north on Seven
teenth Street while a running
argument continued about going
to the police station, Busby testi-
fled, and several times Policeman
Garry pulled on the emergency
brake and stopped the car. At
the intersection of Seventeenth
and I Streets Sergt. John j.
Knight was called in to settle
the argument. He ordered Garry
to cite BuSby to court and go
back to his beat.
Despite a plea for time to get
witnesses, the case continued with
Policeman Garry on the stand.
He admitted using some profanity
but only after he had been irri-
tated by BuSby.
He said he did not lay hands
on Mr.. BuSby at any time.
The case Of Policeman Burke,
scheduled for trial today, was
continued until next Wednesday

BY international News Service
Speedy passage Of the 44-hour
week bill for employees Of the Fed
eral Government as one means Of
relieving the employment situation
will be proposed when Congress
convenes in December, it was
learned today.
The measure having been de-
feated in the last session only
after hard fight. chances for its
passage now are regarded as favor
able.
Representative Wright Patman
CD of Texas predicted the meas
ure would pass IN the short ses-
sion. He said:
"One Of the niailr problems In
relieving . period Of depression
is giving the people more jobs.

firms are beginning to realize
that every time they discharge q
man they are discharging a Gus

"The 44-hOur week bill for
Government employees has
gained considerable ground in
the last few weeks because Of
the employment situation.
II believe it will be passed this
winter. Industry will have to
come to the five-day week, / am
