MUST WIN TO STAY

Card Tomorrow.
BY H. C. BYRD.

TINE lacrosse game Maryland
has tomorrow with Rutgers
i as the finale of the Spring
field day program at Col
lege Park is looked upon as the
most important of the season,
with the exception Of the Mary
land-Hopkins tilt May 20. And
1t may become even more i'm
portant than that II national
lacrosse honors are given main
consideration. If Maryland gets
by the game with Rutgers, there
is hardly any doubt that it will
meet Hopkins for the highest la
crosse honors the Nation offers.
Many lacrosse experts already ere
picking Maryland and Hopkins to play
for the title. but they are overlooking
the possibilities of Rutgers, with its
veteran team. If Maryland wins, it
will have only Penn State between it
and Hopkins, and it should win from
that ten. Hopkins. in beating Army

ten over its most difficult hurdle.
Anyway, the tilt between the Old
Liners and the boys from the Banks

absorbing feature of almost whole
day of athletic competition. Rutgers al
ways has hard-fighting aggregation,
and Maryland is not going to allow its
record to be broken if the hardest kind
Of play will prevent it. Actually, those
in close touch with both teams expect
the closest kind of q contest.

n 4 EXICO CITY. May 5.-America's
An tennis forces plunged into the
annual campaign to regain the
Davis Cup today.
Confidently anticipating victory over
Mexico in the three-day series slated
to open this afternoon, the American
squad was looking ahead to later
matches, particularly place In the
challenge round against France, holders
Of the cup since 1927.
Although the United States squad Of
Wilmer Allison, Cliff Gutter, George
Lott and John Van Ryn ruled a heavy
favorite, Mexico expected to put up an
interesting fight. DR.. Ricardo Tapia,
ace of the home team, is a first-class
player, able to meet all comers on about
even terms.
For the opening singles matches
Tapia was paired against Allison and
Esteban Reyes against Sutter. These
pairings will be reversed for the final
two singles matches Sunday. Lott and
Van Ryn will play the doubles tomor-
row against a Mexican team not yet
definitely decided upon.
The winner of the series will meet
the survivor Of the Cuba Canada con-
tests, to be held at Hot Springs, Va,

Not SolGood

According to the distribution of federal funds to cities and towns of Connecticut for relief work, this city is we'll down on the list. There are several towns. much smaller than Waterbury. whose grants were considerably larger. This is explained easily enough, yet there will continue to finger in our minds suspicion that in the final analysis the city did not get quite fair deal from the authorities. Of course. we were forewarned of this and should have been prepared. Waterbury is not slack in its relief work nor in the amount of money that it is spending to cafe for the unem- ployed and those actually in want
 The amount sent to this city = $l9,34e - is supposed to represent sum equal to one-thrd of what the city spent on relief work during the first three months of l933. At that rate Waterbury spent some S58.O47 for relief. That isn't very much for city of 100000 souls where so many people must have been unemployed and actually destitute during the winter months. But it must be remembered that it does not in- clude the amount of money that was dis pensed by the Mutual Aid Fund during the same period. Efforts to have this sum used in figuring out Waterbury's allotment of fed eral funds was evidently denied.
 City officials believe that when further funds are sent to Waterbury the Mutual Aid Relief Fund, to which all of the employed of the city contribute in varying percentages. will be recognized and our federal aid nat -urally increased. We certainly hope SO, be- cause it is not fair to ignore the fact that Waterbury's methods of aiding the unem- ployed are perhaps as scientific as any con- eeved in the nation. We sincerely hope that the state commission named to admin ster the fund will acquaint itself more thor oughly with the local situation and act ae- eordingly. We are not deficient in relief work, although the figures would seem to indicate so.

Captains Curio" Is Good Mystery Yarn

It is always pleasant to be able to recommend a detective story whole -heartedly - good detective stories being uncommonly rare, these days - and that pleasure comes to me to-day in connection with "The Captains Curio," by Eden Phillipotts (Macmillana $2).
 Here is a mystery yarn which tells an ingenious and puzzling story, presents characters that are drawn so you could recognize them If you met them on the street, and has detective who might con- ceivably be copied from life.
 %rItj has to do with old Martin Knox, retired pawnbroker,> >who is stabbed to death in. his bedroom and robbed of two fabulously valu- able rubies. A Scotland Yard man reaches the scene-an of this hap speedily finds that one of three people, none of whom can conceiv- ably be the murderer, must be the guilty party.
 There's an r innovation in that this detective holds nothing back, You can see the solution coming, but you can't quite see how it's to be attained. The story is out of the ordinary in the way it.is handled
 and. also. in its entertainment value. f
 Inspector Frost in Crevenna Cove" by H. Maynard Smith (Min- ton. Baleh: $2), is just another de- tective story. In this one a man is found murdered on an English beach, and policeman gets to the bottom o things by enlising the aid of an artist, a, clergyman and two small boys. It might fill in an idle evening for you if the weather isn't too warm.

And if this happened we would find in few months that Uncle Sam was a heavy stoekholder in our banks. Ultimately many people believe 1t would be nothing more nor less than federal ownership of banks. While We don't believe that this is being encouraged at Washington. as an ad- min;stration policy. we do believe that Pres ident Roosevelt and his aides are hopeful that all banks. even with federal funds, will find their way to secure and solid footing. Where the federal government became a heavy stockholder it might even be forced into active management or operation of the institution. And this is not for private in- stitutions like our savings and trust com panies, let alone national banks.

 Connecticut has long been noted for it's beautiful elm trees New Haven is called "The Elm City" be-
 cause of it's stately, symmetrical elms, and the famous Wethersfield elm is nationally known. There is no handsomer tree in this state
 than the elm, and its extermina-

 We in Connecticut have not for gotten the epidemic of a few years ago which completely exterminated the chestnut tree. For generations the chestnut tree was one of our most valuable products, prized not only for its edible crop, but
 also for its quality as timber. AL most over night the chestnut tree
 was gone. Most of us will never see it again in this vicinity. In view, of the present threat
 to our elm trees, we believe that the State Department of Agricul- tnre. or any, other body asso ciated with matters of this kind, should give utmost publicity to the situa- tion. Warnings should be posted far and near, and If there is any way that the public can assist or cooperate they should be so ffi- formed forthwith.
