nal Action Waits
picture on Page p

After a two-day hearing the
Senate Judiciary Committee
today recommended the inn
mediate removal of David s.
Barry, suspended Sergeant-at-
arms of the Senate, for
writing an article in the
magazine New Outlook charg-
ing a few members of Con-
gress sold their votes for
money.
I1ne committee will file this
recommendation with the Senate
at 4O'c1ock this afternoon. - +.
It took no action on the walsh
resolution directing criminal
prosecution of the publishers of
the magazine for alleged criminal
libel.
Meets Again Thursday
The committee will meet again
Thursday to consider the Walsh
resolution for a probe Of the
charge Of vote buying. Alfred e.
Smith is editor of the magazine.
Frank A. Tichenor. of New York
city, owns it, and Francis Walton,
Of New York city, is it's managing
editor.
The vote to recommend Barry's
removal was unanimous after the
committee rejected a counter pro-
poSal to permit him to resign.
The substitute offered by Senator
Robinson (R.) of Indiana, was de-
feated, 4 to II.
The proposal to let Barry resign
was supported by Senators Rob
inson, Hastings, Hebert and
Austin, all Republicans. It was
opposed by Senators Norris,
Borah, Blaine, SchaIl and Schuy.
Ter, Republicans, and AShurSt,
Walsh (Montana). Dill, Bratton,
Black and Nicely, Democrats.
This action was taken after
the committee held two public
hearings at which Barry at
tempted to justify his charge
against Congress by declaring ne
had intended to defend it
against unjust criticism.
Unable to Give Proof
Barry was asked time and again
for proof of his charge. Each
time he said he had no knowledge
whatever Of any Senator or Repre-
sentative taking a bribe.
Before passing judgment on
Barry, the committee called VIII
liam c. Cheatham, a student at
George Washington University,
and William Crane JohnStone, jr.,
one of its professors in political
science. Barry had said the stu.
dent told him the professor was
teaching his students that mem.
bers of Congress were corrupt.
The student, on the witness
stand, denied this. He said the
professor had lectured on lob.
bies" and given instances in an.
other lecture as to how a city
councilman might be bribed. The
professor denied before the com.
mittee of ever having taught any.

QUEBEC BEAVERS
 FINISH AT ARENA

New Haven, Feb, 25-Aided by three new additions, namely Ray Kinsella, formerI yof the New York Amerks, Connie King, who was traded for Roy Burmeister with the Boston Bruin Cubs and Eddie Jere- miah of Toledo, the New Haven Eagles skate out against the que bee Beavers at the New Haven Arena tomorrow night. It will mark the last meeting of the Eagles and the Beavers this season according to the Canadian Amer ican hockey league schedule.
 Finis will be written to the long established rivalry between these teams for this season at least when the teams face off tomorrow night. and 1t can be expected by state and local enthusiasts that a bitter bat tie will be witnessed. The Eagles have been largely responsible for keeping the Beavrs in the cellar position for all but one day when the Eagles bowed to the Canadians. but returned the following day to denote them.
 As in the past both teams will be out for the win in spite of the fact that the Beavers have almost no hopes of reaching the play offs. but nevertheless if they are to be left out they will seek to spoil the Star-Spangled sextet's chances, too.
 The locals are confident of vic- tory having emerged from pro- tracted string of setbacks by SCOT ing a 2 to 1 victory over the Beav- CTS last Sunday and feel that they can repeat. s

 FOR THIRD GAME WITH CROSBY TEAM

For the third time this season, Crosbys fast moving basketball squad hooks up with the Torring- ton high tossers coached by Tracey Carey, this time under better con- ditions than those of the last two meetings which were held on the New City court.

After their impressive win over Wilby, the Crosby sharpshooters are ready for their big effort. Though their own state tourna- ment chances were killed by their own effort in regard to an inehg- ible player, Crosby will cause plenty of trouble for other teams Wltn tournament ambitions.

Another State High school swim ming record went by the boards when 16 year old Reville Fox fin ished his 100 yard free style test last night in 56-4 seconds and an- other Crosby High school swim ming team was virtually assured a state championship by trouncing New Haven Hillhouse 53-22 in a meet that was expected to be very close. The largest crowd of the season, some 300 men, women and students crowded into the Crosby pool to cheer the excellent performance of the youngsters coached by J. o. P. Manherz.
 Charron also showed unquestion- able superiority in the diving event while Captain Bill Leary of Cros- by was awarded first in the 220 yard dash after a hairline finish that looked for all the world like a dead heat. Fox also took first honors in the 40 year sprint, but his performance in the century after trailing Bob Johnson of Hill house until the last length of the pool was something to cheer about.

 The Pirates are sporting lead of seven games over their nearest rivals the Cubs and Giants who arc deadlOcked in second place. The Red Sox who took over the Pirates last week are trailing the second place teams by 4 games and are bound to finish higher up in the standing.

TODANS SPORT sIPARADE .; AAAkAt9ltENaAD9
By GEORGE H. BEALE

By GEORGE II. BEALE Limited Press Staff Correspondent (Pinch- Hitting for Henry Me- LemOre) Los Angeles, Feb. 25-(UP)- Memphis Bill Terry, manager and first sacker of the New York Giants, should be-by every known means of reckoning-a very merry fellow, chock full of muscle strain- ing laughs and light-hearted hum- or.
 He hit somewhere in the vicinity of 1850 last season, and he mana ged to dray the Giants out of last place, where some unking people thought they belonged.
 Next he traded off Freddy Lind strom, who somehow figured he was the logical successor to John J. McGraw at Giant bossing and then he shed? his big base ming problem by passing Shanty Hogan on to the Boston Braves.
 He arrived for spring training in Southern California and found that Travis Jackson's legs were fit to carry him through a tough year Of ShOrt-StOpp1ng.
 Surely Memphis Bill Terry's horn was filled to overfiowing, so, when he finished telling about how he needed more pitching strength this year and how his team was young and untried, it was suggested he tell a few funny spring training stories.
 There's going to be nothing fpy y,fv +r,af fv.fv o said Memphis Bill, tits very ser ious business"
 "Yes, it's serious all right, but can't you tell story about some rockies that talked about joining the 'Jernits' or something like that?"
 1T don't believe in that silly stuff," said Memphis Bill, talking a new grip on his cigar.
 "Not anything silly, MT Terry? Something fhimsical like Charlie Grimm said. He's goining to make the Cubs chase goats all over Catalina Island, He says. Can't you tell something like that one?
 "Naw," said the cold-eyed Terry. "I don't believe in any of that nutty stuff.'
 Shanty Hogan, who weighs a bit more than a man should and a bit less than an elephant does and whose slowness on the bases is proverbial, was the last change.
 Getting rid of Hogan, ha, ha. takes big load off the Giants doesn't it?'
 "I don't get you." said Terry.
 "Well, won't you miss Hogan'o baserunning ability this year?"
 "Naw." said Memphis Bill. "H0s gan wasn't any good on the bases paths"

FO-CHARS DISPUTE
 ETTA BETTAS TITLE

Sports Editor:-
 In reading yesterdays Democrat I noticed the item which was head ed 'Etta Bettas Cop First Round in High School Loop at the Gen. tral Y. M. C. A. The Etta Bettas have yet to play the Fo-Chars. They have said that at a managers meeting in which there was no rep resentative of the Fo-Chars club that they were voted winners of the first round. They have used an ineligible player in the game they played with the Fo-Chars and it was considered no contest. They were to play that game over but they have not done so as yet. The managers who have voted the Etta Bettas as winners of the first round have no authority in doing so. The Y Juniors should be entitled to some consideration as the Etta Bettas have used an ineligible player in the league game they played with them.
