WHAT little promises to be spent on
w the big race this afternoon will
be very scattered. If Col Bradley
decides to take a chance with his frail
entry, Burgoo King, in this wrinkled
footing, the Kentucky-bred horse will
share the customers favors along with
Tick On. While those who will be look
ing for something paying more for the
high dollar will sprinkle their bets
among the field While the race is
colorless it is open, and for those who
come to play and not to see, this will
be both an advantage and a disad-
vantage.
But. like the Derby, a pack OF
nlang goats could march to the bar
Tier and still drGlU q crOlCd here on
PreakneSS day. Background and ira
dition are the lure to thousands from
the East, 1DhO 1UiH lay you 2 to 1
that the PredkneSS is as good as the
Derby any day. And there are plenty
OF picturesque boys tolloWing the
bGngtdtlS here 1Uho 1CiH lUdger upon
the size OF your collar and merit
lCeek'S heather.
EVEN tradition suffers when the
IL weather has been bad and frog
skins are scarce. Only long-Shot
will send home few thousand custo-
mers talking about tradition and back
ground, as they count the greenbacks.
The others will tell you it is the bunk.
As the Hill Top gates were swung
open to the waiting customers, and
those being projected from taXicabs by
the dozens, there was no indication
that either weather or money was the
chief worry among them. What those
boys wanted was a winner, while the
folks back home could take care of
any worrying to be done.

What the boys lack they cannot
spend on the bangtaiis. And, from
all i can gather, they have plenty
of what they haven't. Watching a
Preakness without being financially
Interested still is not much sport, no
matter what the turfmen tell you
about liking merely to see the best
horse win.

Kaufman'S much defeated
3-year-old will come laundering
down this pasty racing strip at

Two BARRIERS, the man at the
delicateSsen store and a taxi
driver have relayed this informa-
ton to me direct from Tick On'S
feed box. Maybe it was old Tick
On himself who told my pals
when he was downtown last night
mixing around with the turf
crowds that are filling up the
Monumental City night clubs and
hotels.
From all can CLEAN from these
boys and the hundreds OF other
tipSterS milling around before the

hope is going to spread eagle the field
this afternoon as it 1UdS HeUer con-

PreaEneSS entry list, outside OF Tick
on, and then they'll add that he, too,
has been beaten 1DoetuIly at Louis
Uille Hare de Grace ana IN the
Derby this season.
DUT the boys with the knowing winks
ID and the wads Of dope sheets in
their pockets say that they are
betting on Tick On because what he
may lack in class he has in gameneSS.
If he can get away from the barrier
without kicking the starter, Jim Milton,
on the shinS, and chewing the peak off
Alfred Robinson's cap, he will romp
away from the field, including Burgoo
King, War Hero and Mad Pursuit, en-
tries when this was being typed this
morning.
That's how the boys are Speculat-
ing, but there are tears in the eyes
of the Old-time PreakneSS fans as
they gIim the entry list. Ii is poor

and there is no doubt that the old

BEER THROUH THE AGES: (1) Brewing is an ancient practice, dating back to BabyIOnian times. This statucttc of an ancient Egyptian kncading mash comes from a tomb dating back to @O0O BIC. (2) The vastncss of the modern brewing industry in Eu- ropc is shown by this storage ccl- lar of the Piiscn brcweries in CzechOsI0yaI5ia. There are many miles of such cellars storing the famed Pilsencr.F (3) Americas modern brcwcrs-a home -brew bottle-capping contest at Port land, Ore.
 other breweries, not licensed to make near-beer, can make all the wort they like.
 MICHIGAN TAXES WORT Michigan placed tax of cents q gallon on wort in 1929, and began collecting $3,000 a day.
 Inspectors collect the tax and affix revenue stamps to each con- tainer of wort. The federal gov- ernment also inserted a wort tax in it's most recent revenue bills. Much of this wort goes. obvi- ously, either into homes for home brewing, or else in hidden base ment breweries. Detroit espc- cially is full of these illegal brew cries who buy legal, taxed wort and turn it. into illegal, outlawed, untaxed beer.
 Nobody knows, of course, how much home brewing is going on. That is one of the, distinct disad- Yantages of prohibition and the

 MADE THEM SIT
 UP ANDLEIEN
Came All the Way From Texas at Own Expense to Take on Waterways Down in His Region
By RAY BLACK


 Chicago, Nov 1s-(UP)-sandis Acheson, who is s3 and so nearly deaf that he has missed much of the four days of testimony before the Shannon committee, succeeded in getting his own story into the Record to-day--the story he came at his own expense from Denison, Texas to tell.
 Acheson's plea for waterway de- velopment to aid the Red River valley, where he has truck farm, brought cheers from the congress sional committee Investigating gov- ernment competition with private business. That was more than any of the other briefs, arguments, sta- tistics and papers asking waterway development got, no matter what their merit.
 The bent, white haired old man who had sat faithfully through day tafter day of tedious sessions, fall ing asleep often, it is true, injected a thrill into the routine when he testified late last night. "Gentlemen,'' he Doomed, giving his testimony standing as if a pion- ger riverman and farmer had no need of a chair, T speak the cause of the land that Uncle Sam forgot, a land 1000 mills up the Red river of the south in what many of you doubtless think is the Great Ameri-
 can Desert"
 Congressmen leaned forward in their chairs. Nodding listeners
 woke up. Reporters picked up their pencils. Here was new sort of version on the controversy over development of inland waterways.
 That valley is the richest in the world. The $7.000,000 read came out of Alaskan gold mines in 3 year wouldn't buy the cucumbers and squashes we raise to send up | north.

illegal liquor trade. Nobody knows how many men are en- gagged in 1t. how much money is being spent for it. what kind of poison Is being circulated.
 KINDRED INDUSTRIES GROW
 However, the sale of malt syrup has gained steadily ever since pro- hibition. It has many uses in the kitchen. But the rumor persists that it is used greatly in making beer at home. It's sale is legiti- mate, unless it can be definitely proved that the sale was made for the purpose of making beer. It pays a tax of 3 cents a pound.
 Also there is the tremendous business done by more than 60 seals, more than 40 metal crown ufacturers of bottle-stopping de- vices. Add in the corks and the rubber tubing, the jars and jugs and all the paraphernalia which you can see in the. window of your home town home-brew store.
 Lastly, production of hops has risen steadily since prohibition. Most of the more than 33,000,000 pounds of hops produced annu- ally go into the brew kettle.
 These all give some picture of the e-brewing industry.
 BEER LEAKS MANY
 Leakage from legal breweries is hard to prevent, and probably will never be stopped, says no less an authority than the Wicker sham commission. After outlin- ing the rise of an enormous num- Der of illegal alley breweries' with the attendant rule of the racketeer, the commission re- ports: ''The making of cereal beverage is a legitimate business and cannot reasonably be elim- mated. But so long as it is car ried on and there is demand for beer in the larger cities, the gross margin of profit in supplying beer, the possibilities of escape from the plants, and the manu- fracture of wort will give trouble for effective enforcement of pro- hibition."
 It is only fair to state that most of the larged and more rep utable breweries have been care ful. In fact, many of them have cried loudly to the government to stop wildcat plants from sell ing real beer, as it killed off tht demand for near-beer.
 The process of making near. beer, which demands that large quantities of, real beer be stored in the breweries awaiting dealco i holization, has made it easy at al times for dishonest employees even without permission of thu owner, to draw off this real beel from tanks into near-beer kegs and ship it out as near-beer.
 The beer industry, in othel words. has never died.

clarified and drawn off as wort (and pronounced wurt). This is collected into vats, yeast is add ed, and fermentation does the rest.
 Until the yeast is added, the wort is n-alcoholic. and prohi- bition laws haven't been able to touch it. So some breweries make beer right up to the point of ada ing yeast. Then they peddle the wort. Anyone can buy legal wort, add yeast, and await beer.
 This business has been quietly growing. Curiously enough 1t is not permitted to breweries li- censed% to make near-beer. They must finish the process, make real beer and dealcoholize it. But

Harry Richman, George Price,

Dooley, ThurSton the Magician,
John Charles Thomas, Kate
Smith, Chic Sale, Fred Allen and
the -Four Marx Brothers were
among others whose talents were
not hidden under a bushel until

Radio has given them a much
greater audience and loud speaker
addictS like to feel they have dis.
covered entertainment finds. y
They seem to be disappointed
when they learn these stars have
been twinkling in the entertain.

To give the radio celebrities
their full measure of credit, they
are better box office magnets to.
day than many of the old stand.

National to Have
Blossom Time

Years have increased rather
than diminished the luster of the
melodies of Blossom Time" the
operetta which will be heard at
the National Theater for three
days only, beginning December
20. This music play of the ro-
nance of the famous composer
Schubert has been played and
sung not once but several times
in practically every city and town
in the United States, and yet it
is as warmly welcomed today as
when it first swept across the
country.
No one but a master would
have composed the melodies
which Franz Schubert woVe into
undying music, and a master of
the present day, Sigmund Rom
berg, arranged those ageless com.
positions into a score which re-
tanned all the beauty, witchery,
harmony and charm of the i'm
mortal Schubert.
