Church School
The church school which was held
in the M. e. Church on Sunday
morning was slimly attended. Sixty
one teachers and scholars being
present. This is a falling off OF
about one-third. The absence of tea
chers was noted. 1t is essential to
have prosperous school school
and teachers should be present
/ They cannot expect the scholars to
attend when many of the teachers
are often absent. Keep your church
school up to the highest standard
during the summer months. Many
schools lose out by abandoning the
school when the warm weather sets
in. Keep the fires burning.
The lesson for the day entitled
''True Brotherhood" This lesson
treats also of the life of Joseph, but
the student must read some of the
preceding chapters of Genesis to
get a true insight to the meaning of
the lesson of today. Joseph is
great man. though only thirteen
years in Egypt and some of them
spent in prison. Yet through his
ability to interpret dreams of Phar-
aoah he has become a great man
and next to the king in his adopted
country. OF course the reader is fa-
miliar with the sale of Joseph by his
brothers and their regret after
wards, which brought forth true re-
pentance. In the lesson of today
Joseph tested his brothers in every
way until convinced of their true re-
pentance. Then he did for them and
his father Jacob the things which
they asked, food, as a famine existed
in the land where Jacob lived. JOS
eph took his father, mother, broth
ers and wives and their children to
dwell in the land of Egypt where
they became a great nation. A true
brotherhood was established be-
tween Joseph and his brethren
which was lasting in effect. The
worl dtoday needs the pardoning
power of God, shed abroad in HUI
man hearts to make this world
united in that love which leads to
universal brotherhood. Gold text
Behold, how good and how pleasant |
it is for brethren to dwell together
in unity. Psalms 1851.
Morning Sermon
The pastor in his morning sermon |
used the text as found recorded in
st. Mark, 4th chapter and part of |
the 28th verse. First the blade, then |
the ear, after that the full corn in |
the ear. The pastor was at his best I
and preached a great sermon.

has prospects for a successful
meeting been as bright as that
which faces the 12-day session
which opens Friday.
There are over 1000 thorough
breds already quartered In TINS
State. Among them are budding
two-year-olds, prospective stars OF
the three-year-old division, ana
tried and truer olders horses, who
will be fighting it out in the
stakes throughout the year.
Bowie Plant Improved
The Bowie plant has been
greatly improved since last NO
Vember's meeting, and with ex-
cellent automobile roads running
into the course from both Wash
ington and Baltimore, the only
thing that can mar the sport IS
a bad break from the weather
man. However, regardless OF track
conditions there are more than
enough horses available to enable
capacity fields to go postWard dur
ing the 84-race program slated 10
wind up on April IA. =,
The approaching session Will
enable race goerS to get an eX-
cellent line on the years three
year-old situation, especially the
candidates for the $4,000 Ken
lucky Derby slated for May Z.
Due to the race being earlier
than usual the men handling
star three-year-olds shipped to
Bowie with view of testing
their charges thoroughly in an
effort to find if they are made
of Derby timber. This means a
break for visitors at Bowie, for
it will provide topnotch sport in
the early spring.
Inaugural Is Feature
Fridays opening program will
be featured by the tenth renewal
of the $4,000 Inaugural, a dash
of six furlongs. Although The
Heather holds the time record
of Ill 3-5, many horsemen look
for the record to go by the
boards. They base their opinion
on the quality of sprinters al
ready on the grounds, together
with the excellent times being
noted in morning trials.
In addition to the star thor
oughbreds slated to perform,
every first class race rider in
this country, who is in shape,
will be seen under silks during
the States inaugural spring meet
ing. This includes Hank Mills
and Sonny Workman, pair,
who are slated to be fighting it
out for the lead when the final
days sport begins.

Fate favors Hokie, for he rolls
his final set on his own drives,
King Pin, and will be facing Pet
worth, a crew who can force him
to step out fast. Red Megaw has
three sets to go, but must shoot
around 800 in each to overhaul
the youngster.

A Good Sport Town

The fact is that Washington
is a good fight town, yea, it is
a great fight town, just as it
is good horse racing town, a
splendid baseball town, a better
than fair golf town and an AL
wrestling town.
We should like to know, just
as a matter of curiosity, how
the Commissioners arrived at the
conclusion Washington doesn't
want a law permitting the hold
ing of box fighting.
Of course the Commissioners
are supposed to know all about
the wants of their fair city,
but they are only human; they
can't know it all and the only
logical manner for them to ar
rive at certain determinations
is to inquire from those best
fitted to give them guidance.
Did they inquire? Who did
they ask? Did they just ask each
other at a board meeting, or
did they send for people famil-
lar with such matters? And if
they did get guidance on the
subject, from what source did
they get it?

Who Did They Ask?

Did they call in sportsmen?
Did they call in the District At
torney or his assistants? Did
they ask any sports writer's or
managing editors to determine
If they think the fight game
holds sufficient interest in
Washington to print the amount
of news and comment which
every Washington newspaper
does, not only with regards to
local fights but out-of-toWn
fights?
Did they call in the radio
broadcasting officials to ask If
they find it of public interest to
pipe into Washington the many
fight round by round descrip-
tions which they do?
Did they station a clocker at
Highway Bridge to learn how
many more D. C. automobiles
drift down toward Alexandria
Tuesday nights eight night),
than on other nights?
What do they want D. C.
fans to do to assert their in
terest-picket the District Build
ing like lot of Communists?
The anti.fight law which now
governs Washington is the vim
tage of February 7, 1896. 1t
includes a law against man
fighting beast. The Territory
Of Hawaii was embraced in
the same law. which prohibits
fighting in the district. On Feb
ruary 8, 1929, Hawaii was
granted fighting. Two-thirds Of
the States have athletic COM
missions to regulate the sport,
but not Washington.
Mrs. Mary Norton, chairman
of the House District Commit
tee, recently said over the ra-
dio she was in favor of new
code for the District of Co
lumbia, a code which would do
away with antiquated laws
our fight law here would be
a fair starting point for the
good Mrs, Norton.

The Comment of the Commits
sioners on Mr.. Blacks effort
follows:
I'm the judgment of the Com
missionerS there is no large pub
lie sentiment in favor of this
bill. They do not believe that
the National Capital should be
an arena in which such exhi-
bitions should be staged. Exist
ing laws on this subject have
been sufficient to regulate the
matter, and it is not believed
that any change in such laws
Is desirable"
If the good Commissioners
could have taken the trouble
to step around to some of the
pugilistic enterprises staged in
the vicinity and patronized
rs per cent by the Washington
public, we don't believe they
could have honestly have said
that there is no large sentiment
in behalf of boxing here in
Washington.

Winner Sought
There are many things on the

give washington a winner this
year is his chief aim, and the
good condition of players is
step number one.
The Griffs won another game
from the Baltimore Orioles yes
terday, making the sixth time
since the opening of the grape
fruit season that they have
downed their Gulfport rivals.
The score was 10 to 3.
Bob Friedrich pitched the first
six rounds for Manager john

turned in a very good effort.
Frank Ragland hurled the last
three frames.
The contest was a real battle
while Friedrich was on the mound
for the Griffs and Ken Holloway,
former Detroit Tiger singer, in
the box for the Orioles. The
count stood to / in favor of
Manager Johnson's men until the
seventh.
On Batting Spree
In this inning, the Griffs went
on a batting spree against Pitcher
Smythe, who took up the duties,
and after it was all over the
Griffs had scored four runs to
take a big lead. Three more
markers, counted in the final two
frames, turned the game into a
rout.
Heine Manush performed at
first base because Joe Judge re.
ported stiff neck to Trainer
Mike Martin. Dave Harris was
in left field. In regards to the
stick work of the team, Carl
Reynolds came to life at bat by
pounding out four hits in five
trips to the plate. One of Carl's
bingles was double.
