WELFARE EXCHANGE
HANDLES MORE CASES
9S, ,349 Registered in 1882, as Com.
pared to 40, 1878 for Year
of 1880.

An increase in the number of cases
referred to the Social Service Exchange
from 4O978 in 1880 to 52,709 in 1881
and 98,349 in l9e was revealed yes
terday afternoon in the report of the
executive secretary, Mrs. Mary F. c.
Leute, to the annual meeting Of the
Social Service Exchange Committee,
Council of Social Agencies, at the
Y w. C. A.
The exchange maintains a conflden-
tial file Of all applications for social
service in a systematic effort to dis
tribute aid as fairly as possible through
the elimination of Implications. In ad
dition to indexing local applications.
the exchange contacts agencies as far
away as California and handles many
inquiries from adjoining States.
Mrs. Leute reported that more than
SO per cent of the people applying for
help have never been registered with
any charity agency before This is par
ticularly true of the applications being
received by the Emergency Relief Di-
Vision - the Board OF Public Welfare.

DISTRICT INCLUDED
IN DISTRIBUTION
OF HIGHWAY FUND
Amendment to Recovery Bill
Is Accepted by Senate
Committee.
SHARES WITH STATES
IN GOVERNMENT AID
Arguments Presented by Spokes-
men for Board of Trade Be- Z
fore Finance Group.

The Senate Finance Committee today
amended the industrial recovery bill to
include the District of Columbia along
with the States and Hawaii In the dis
tribution of the $400,oo0,ooO Federal
highway program.
The committee has not completed
consideration Of the bill, but it was
learned that an amendment offered by
Senator King. Democrat. of Utah, plac-
ing the District on parity with the
States in the highway section was ac-
cepted.
This action is in line with a plea
made to the committee at hearings
earlier in the week by the Washing
ton Board of Trade and officials of
the District government. who en-
phasized that residents of Washington
are heavy Federal taxpayers and they
will have to join also In paying what
ever new Federal taxes are put into
effect to meet the carrying charges
on the new public works program. In
view of this fact, the local witnesses
told the committee it Is only fair and
just that the District should share in
the distribution Of the highway fund.
Speak for Trade Board.
The arguments in support of the Dis
trict amendment were made on behalf
of the Board Of Trade by Robert j.
Cottrell, executive secretary, and DR..
Llewellyn Jordan, chairman of the
Streets and Avenues Committee.
District Auditor Daniel j. Donovan,
who filed brief in support of the
amendment, called the committees at
tention to the fact that while the House
bill included the District in another
section authorizing Federal aid for mis-
cellaneous construction projects, this
city will not be able to receive any
substantial benefit from that section
and that the only real benefit to WASH
ington could come from a share of the
highway program.
The reason for this is that construc-
tion work to be carried on by the Dis
trict government must first be author
lied by Congress and at the present
time there are only two municipal prof.
ects to which that part of the bill could
apply.
Appropriation Plan Outlined.
The s400, ,OOo, 900 highway fund is to
be distributed in the form of Federal
grants and would be apportioned as
follows: Three-fourths in accordance
with section 81 of the Federal highway
act of 1921, and one-fourth in the ratio
which the population of each State
bears to the total population of the
country. 1t was brought out in the
hearings that a number of streets in
the National Capital are links in cross
country Federal aid highways and could
be given needed attention by including
the District in this bill
Senator Capper, Republican, of
Kansas, also urged the Finance Com
mittee to adopt the District amendment

.P|TT-HOyA BATTLE
3-GAME CARD
American U. and GaIIaudet
Fives Also Play Tonight
on Local Floors.

A LTHOUGH four of the District
~ college basket ball teams are In
~ action tonight, three of them
here, Georgetown, in playing the
powerful Pitt Panthers in Tech High
gym at o'clock, presents the big home
attraction.
Other games here find Virginia Medi-
cal College at American U. and Gallau-
Diet entertaining Baltimore U. on the
court at Eastern High. Maryland is
playing in the opening round Of the
Southern Conference tourney with
South Carolina, favored to annex the
title, as its foe.
Georgetown is given only an outside
chance to beat Pitt, leader and pros
pective champion of the Eastern Cole
giate League. American U. figures to
win its game and Gallaudet is given
at least a $3.50 chance. Maryland Is
a decided underdog.
O'Connor, who started his first game
as a regular against Carnegie at Pitts
burgh last Saturday, will be retained
IN the Georgetown lineup, Coach
Freddy Mesmer of the Hoyss has an
nounced. This will be the only change.
Georgetown Freshmen and Tech
High quintets will play preliminary
game, starting at 1880. !
WHILE Pitt and Georgetown are set
w ting their differences. Carnegie
Tech and Temple will clash at
Philadelphia, with second place at
stake. Carnegie, victor In three out Of
four games, now holds the runner-up
spot. but Temple, with the leagues
leading scorer in Howard Rosan and
with the advantage of playing on its
own floor, will be a slight favorite. A
victory for the Owls would give them
record Of five triumphs against two de-
feats. The teams met at Pittsburgh
early In January, Carnegie winning a
1884 overtime decision.
Maryland's slim chance against South
Carolina Is told in the fact that the
Gamecocks rate as the kings Of basket
ball IN Dixie. They have won all their
games. including a rather decisive win
over Kentucky, picked by the majority
to annex the title in the new South
eastern Conference.

THE efforts Of the American Gov
i eminent to check the foreign
invasion in sports by placing a
high tax on the incomes Of those
who compete here recently brought
a statement from Jack Curley,
wrestling impresario, to the effect
that such a tax would not affect
the sport to any extent because of
the many American boys who have
made good in the mat game. He re-
called how when he toured the
country with Frank Gotch, then the
world champion, our mat stars ruled
the world in catch-as-catch-ca
style, the style now almost univer-
sally followed.
In those days Uncle Sans talent
was at the head of the profession,
with such stars as Gotch, DR.. Roller,
Fred Beell, Tom Jenkins and Farmer
Burns, among others, setting the
pace. OF the old American group
only Gotch is gone. Jenkins is an
instructor at West Point; Burns has
a school for wrestling out West;
DR.. Roller is a famous surgeon in
New York, and Beell is a sheriff in
Mansfield, Wis. Beell is the only
member of the group who entered
politics. He Is well-to-do and Is as
enthusiastic a wrestling fan today
as he was when in his prime.

~ But for the determination of
~ Buster" Berries to become
naval officer, the Naval
Academy would not have got
ten one of its most promising
athletes of recent years. Berries
made three attempts to get into the
Academy before his physical and
scholastic assets passed muster.
Now he has shone in foot ball and
is star member of one of Navy's
greatest basket ball teams.
Berries, who halls from Louisville,
KY, began his athletic career in 1928
when he was a member of the
church team which won the national
class "A" championship for Ken
lucky.
In 1880 he was captain of the
All-State Kentucky high school
team and then entered Cavenaugh,
a small prep school for the Naval
Academy, where he was all-State
forward of championship team for
two years.
Failing to get. into the Naval
Academy he then went to Culver
Academy, where he became 1885,
pound boxing champion. While there
he made two efforts to pass the
Naval Academy tests before succeed
ing. In addition to backfield post
on the foot ball team he played
shortstop on the Culver nine.
Blessed with an unusually powerful
pair of hands as yell as all the
