DAVIS OPPOSES
ACCUSATIONS

SAN FRANCISCO, May 6.
"GOrman doesn't know what
he's talking about when he
says / tried to sell anybody .
half interest in Phar Lap.
That's absolutely untrue"
In those words, D. J. Davis,
owner Of Phar Lap, the late
great Australian wonder horse,
took direct issue today with
statements made in New York
by Thomas Patrick German, man.
ager of the Aqua Caliente race
track.
German had been quoted as
declaring that two weeks before
Phar Laps big race at Aqua
Caliente, Davis had offered a
half interest in the famous
horse to Jim Crofton and others
for $4,000.
Davis told International News
Service he also resented a state
ment by German to the effect
that Phar Laps untimely death
was caused by too much hurry
in getting the big gelding from
Aqua Caliente to the Tanforan
track, near San Francisco.
According to German, the re-
suit was that Phar Lap was
rushed from the hot climate of
Mexico to one less warm, thus
catching the intestinal cold from
which he died.
"That'S all wrong" Davis de-
clared.. There was no undue
hurry, and Phar Lap didn't
die Of a cold contracted in that
manner. In the first place
Phar Lap was up here for 10
days before he took i'll, and in
the second place he died
within six hours after he be-
came ILL.,"

Two of them made national
amateur boxing history with the
savagery Of their battle for indi-
vidual supremacy in Madison
Square Garden last night.
The thriller ended with a ire
mendous upset. John Kilcullen,
of Yale, was knocked out by
Fred Feary, of Stockton, Cal.
Kilcullen being knocked out
was a sensation in itself. It was
the handsome Yale mans man
ner of being waited out Of the
picture which brought everyone'S
heart to mouth, and the stupid
handling of game, Sorely in
jured young athlete which made
the folks swallow them.
KiIculIen OutclaSSed
Kilcullen, after being woefully
outclassed but not dismayed in
the first two rounds, was knocked
out cold in 2:15. OF the third
and last. .
It took four knockdowns, all
told, to Subdue Kilcullen. He
was spilled for nine in the first,
the bell saving him.
Norbert Meehan, of the Unlver-
sity of San Francisco, lost a close
decision to plucky Sal Reslnol, OF
The Washington times., 1932-05-06

New York after the most furious
battle of the tournament.
Resinol was down for nine from
the southpaw's left in the second
but he got hunk by dropping
Meehan for nine in the third.
It was so close that it was a
pity that one of them had 10 lose
It was Resinol's daring rushing
against a harder hitter in the last
round that clinched it.

John Daniels, from the Missouri

Lorraine splurged with a 377 set
in her final appearance.
Elizabeth MinSon, however,

THE CHESS BOARD
L, NORMAL PAUL

The last and deciding game of
the District Of Columbia tourna-
ment championship is being
played at the Capital City Chess
Club, GIT Fifteenth st. N. W., this
afternoon. The present incum-
bent, F. B. walker, plays the
present tournament leader, Vladi-
mir Sournin. Should Sournin
win he will become the next
champion; draw will place him
in a tie with A. C. often, and a
loss will permit the latter player
to win premier honors. The
standing of the players is ap-
pended.
The showing in this tourna-
ment of Mr.. J. w. Byler, District
match champion, has been a
grave disappointment to his
friends, and certainly no criterion
of his ability as a chess player.

TEAM ON EDGE

STRUGGLE:

University of Maryland's Ia
crosse team, except for a warm.
ing up drill late this afternoon.
Is all set for the important game
with st. Johns at College Park
tomorrow afternoon that will be
the climax of the annual field
day program. The game starts
at Ais p. m.
st. Johns, the national cham
pion, again is boaSting a team
up to the 1881 caliber, while
Maryland feels that it will take
the field as fully prepared and
possibly better balanced than last
year, when it lost, to 2, in a hec-
tic battle after Ed Ronkin. ace Of
the attack, went out in the first
three minutes with a broken
ankle. Ronkin, fully recovered,
has demonstrated by his work for
the basketball team, again is on
the job and going strong.
st. Johns makes its only big
bid for honors in spring sports
in lacrosse. throwing every ath-
letic asset at the historic old
school in the stick game. This
material, ably handled by Coach
Dinty Moore. one-time Hopkins
player, has won three successive
national titles, with the assistance
given by Maryland in disposing
of Hopkins and Navy and the
Old Liners feel that it is time
to call a halt.
Maryland will take the field
with a lighter team than st.
Johns, but will have a little
margin in the number of vet
eranS.
Those in the know regard the
game as a $3.50 affair. with the
wellknown breaks" likely to de-
eide the issue. Probable line-upS: /:

Hit by Pitched Ball,
Muer Pronounced Fit

Reports that Buddy Myer,
second sacker of the Griffmen,
had been seriously injured when
hit by a batted ball during the
Griffmen's practice yesterday,
were dispelled today when CLUB
headquarters advised that Buoy
was o. k. and would be available
for this afternoons game against
the Chicago White SoX.
Myer, it seems, was hit quite
hard on his right leg, frocing
his hobbling about all yesterday
afternoon and last night. But
ice packs administered by Trainer
Mike Martin this morning re-
lieyed the swelling to the extent
that the infielder was pronounced
fit to play.

ond floor, and to assign a home
room to each class. 1t has also en-
abled us to divide our largest class
in the elementary grades, and to
move the special class from the tea
chers' room to a regular classroom.
The school now has a special room
for music, and a modern art room
for the teaching of that subject. The
addition has made possible an up
to-date cafeteria where pupils Sc
cure each day a wholesome lunch
con at a reasonable price. Three of
the most important improvements
that the addition has made possible,
however, are the large study hall
and library combined, the splendid
ly equipped manual training room,
and the use of an additional room
for home economics.
The library of the Millsboro
school, which is located on the sec
ond floor, is equipped with shelves
placed along two sides of the wall,
fifteen beautiful oak reading tables
with chairs and ample table space
for ninety pupils, a large magazine
rack, a nine-try cabinet file, and a
large movable bulletin board.
The manual training room of the
Millsboro school is equipped with
the following: An electric bench
hand jointer with solid one-piece
casting; an electric ball bearing va
riety saw; an electric variety oil
stone tool grinder; an electric wood
turning lathe; an electric jig saw;
an electric glue heater; twelve man.
ual training work benches, and
complete set of manual training
tools ample to take care of the
needs of the school.
So many girls have been taking
home economics in Millsboro that it
has been necessary to use an addi-
tional room for sewing. Several new
sewing machines, sewing tables and
chairs have been installed. An extra
stove, sink, cupboard and other
equipment have been put in the or
iginal home economics room, which
is now used solely for teaching
cooking.
The State Board of Education, at
