BILL SAVED

- Uncle Sans rent bill in the
District has decreased by more
than $500,OO0 since 1929, Harold
Candland, secretary of the Pub

revealed. His estimate of a $685..

survey made of all offices and
warehouses leased by the Gov.
ernment, maintained either by
the owners or by Federal depart.
mentS.
The greatest saving is shown
in rents paid for office space
maintained by the owner
Whereas in 1929 the Government
paid out $4,000 at an average
rental per square foot of $1.13.
in 1882 it expended only $169, 900
at an average of only 83 cents.

A LICE DAVIS, daughter of the
" donor of the famed tennis
~ trophy, was to battle Reba
Kirson in the semi finals of
the women's singles in the City of
Washington net competition this eve
ming on the Rock Creek Reservoir
courts, starting at 4 o'clock. The win
ner will face Mrs. Ruth Martinez, who
gained the final as the result Of VIC
tory yesterday over her old foe, Frances
Walker, Ga, 60.
Maj. James A. Dorst, y. S. A., and
Lieut.. Gerald Smith, U. 8. NJ, both
Leech Cup players, today boast the
doubles championship. They vanquished
the seeded No. pair, Alan Staubly
and Fred Sendel, yesterday, 6-3, 4-6,
IS. "a, and succeeded to the mantle
of Tom Mangan and Bud MArkey, who
did not defend their title.
The Davis-Kirson match was ex-
pected to produce fine battling. Miss
Davis, who is playing in her first tour
ney here, has shown strongly. She is
q particularly hard hitter. Miss Kirson
has gained decided prestige through the
defeat of Mrs Charles Stone who won
the tourney last year.
It is probable the final in the worn-
ems singles will not be played until
next Monday. as Miss Kifson has been
placed at No. on the Middle Atlantic
Sears Cup team which will meet teams
from the New England and New York
districts this week end in Philadelphia.
and Mrs. Martinez, Mrs. Stone and
Clara Tabler were expected to take
part in tryouts for the team scheduled
today in Baltimore.
Steadifless was the big factor in the
victory Of Maj. Dorst and Lieut.. Smith.
They played conservative tennis from
the outset, refusing to take chances
until opportunities for scoring were pre-
sented. In the third set the Staubly-
Sendel combination fared, but the
service pair soon again were in the
Miss Walker appeared to advantage
in the first set, when she won three
straight games to tie the score at four

7 INDIANAPOLIS, May 31.-Five hun
dred miles Of daring, record-smash-
ing speed over the rough bricks of
the Indianapolis motor speedway
brought victory to Fred Frame, Los An

international automobile classic yester-

The 37-year-old driver bounced his
little eight-cylinder racer past the
checkered finish nag to win the S20, 900
| first prize money in 4:4s 03.79 to average
| 104.144 miles per hour for the 500 miles.
The best previous speed was 10l1 miles
per hour, made by Peter De Paolo in
1925.
Ten years of driving experience rode
with Frame, but finishing less than A
seconds behind him was Howdy Wilcox
! Indianapolis youth, winning second in
ms f1rst major race at an average of
lO3.88l. A former Howdy Wilcox, vet
eran OF the speedway won the 1919 race
here, but was killed soon afterward.

the Governor pronounced the cham

As far as the writer knows. Gov
Roosevelt's knowledge Of the Queens

fact that the opinion Of all the So

gubernatorial estimate Of Maxs physi-
cal fitness and skill
IT WAS a great day for all hands at
the training camp Schmeling was
no happier over the opportunity Of

only foreign driver competing, was
forced to relinguish his bid for Ameri-
can driving honors after 66 laps around
the 2l2mile course left him bruised
and sore. His Americana built. eight
cylinder racer developed trouble and
was forced of after ITS miles.
The setting of the new speed record
for the race was aided by the daring
duel staged by Frame and Wilcox over
the final hundred miles. The veteran
from the West Coast held his lead, but
the sensational Indianapolis youth, who
got his chance at the controls by the
inability of Shorty Canton 10 drive,
chased him right down to the finish line
and at one time was but eight seconds

without relief and with only three stops

pilots, always in money positions after

in the field. The name is Jimmy Foxx
Of Mr.. Mack's Athletics. Foxx so far
has made double assault-one against
Al Simmons for the leagues batting
leadership and the other against Babe
Ruth and Lou Gehrig for the home
run display.
Foxx has all the materials needed
power. youth and experience A
natural hitting knack. He was q good
ball player when he was is years old
He is still one Of the youngest Of the
stars with the experience Of veteran
to help on the side.
Young Foxx has another helpful at
titude-this is coolness and relaxation
in big spot. He doesn't tighten up in
pinch. He Is always dangerous and
rival pitchers know it.
It is hardly in reason to expect Foxx
to continue his present pace, but he
will be hard young man to overhaul
for the two main honors In the School
Of Swat. The same j. Foxx was the
big rallying point of the Athletics when
they looked to be on the verge of diving

A BYSTANDER writes In to COM
~ plain Of the great interest taken
~ in sport today, with so many
people out of work and 50 much
worry and suffering assailing the world.
He overlooks the point that sport IS
one Of the best Of all tonics in situ-
alton of this sort.
In the first place, Avery Brundase,
this point: 1T Is remarkable fact
that in this period Of economic dis
tress there has been practically no dis
turbance, disorder or social unrest
This "a due in a large measure to the
training that sport gives-the knowl-
edge that the game isn't over until the
last whistle is blown, the spirit of never
say die learned on the playing field"
More than this there is the keen
human interest Of sporting competition
that is badly needed in morose or mel
ancholy days. If all sport was abol-
ished a large block of drabness would
be added to the lives of millions Hun
dredS of thousands are still keen about
base ball-the two pennant races, Babe
Ruth, Jimmy Foxx, Burleigh Grimes.
HornSby and McKechnie and Mack and
McGraw, Grove and Earnshaw.
Others can look ahead to the day
Stranger Lewis attempts to coil a head
lock on Dick Shikat. You can hear
others arguing over the chances Schmel
ing and Sharkey will carry into the
ring-not overlooking the interest in
the two coming open golf Champion
ships where the turn may hang on
final putt.
The approach of the Olympic games
with a bunch of records under fire,
means still a new set Of thrills For
the two reasons named above any gen.
eral curtailment of sport now would be
o new form of insanity, of which the
world already has its share.
IF the numerical team strength of the
i United States Is cut down for the
Olympic pageant. the competition for
places will be keener than ever. Take
the case Of 100-meter race, which in
cludes Wykoff, Tolan, Keisel, Topping
and at least one or two more, where
the margin will hardly be more than
q few inches.
Even a world record holder will have
his share of nightmares before the final
elimination is over. In many cases 1t
will take the equal of record to break
through. What q race there would be
with Wykoff, Tolan, Keisel and TOPPING
sweeping down the stretch, each one
knowing that an inch or two, or less
than a tenth Of q second, might tell the
story.
