STE|NKE STARTLES
MAT CROWD IN WIN
Steals Show as He Upsets
CIinkstock-Londos and
Pesek Triumph.

n EsP1TE the presence OF two
world championship claimants,
it remained for the old war
horse of the mat, Hans Steinke,
light-footed mammoth of that great
fraternity of "uncrowned champions, y
to furnish the highlight Of Promoter
Joe Turner's weekly wrestling show last
night at Washington Auditorium.
Before more than 1000 spectators,
Steinke, member Of the old school OF
wrestling, stole the show from beneath
the schnozzles Of Jim Londos and John
Pesek, co-claimants with Henri Dc
Glane and Jim Browning Of the heavy
weight title. Steinke, cast in q prelim-
mary role, displayed the best wrestl ng
of the night when he threw Jim Clink-
stock, giant Indian, in l0:40.
The German giant, who generally re-
ceives only rythmic handclasps. de-
noting craving for action on the part
OF the fans, seemed somewhat non
plussed by the ovation he received fol-
lowing his neat exhibition of tossing
about the 2s5-pound Clinkstock.
Frank Judson, clashing with LondoS
for the second time here, staged a poor
match, never caused the leading
champion" much trouble, and was
greeted with q chorus Of Bronx cheers
as he left the ring after losing in 38l2
minutes. Londos toyed with Judson and
finally destroyed the former fair-haired
boy with Japanese toe hold and frog
scissors
Pesek, champion in part of Ohio,
also failed to receive much in the way
OF opposition and after playing with
John Maxos for 14la minutes back
dropped the Greek into submission.
Two Commute draws rounded out
the card. Paul Jones and Ernie DuSek
and Rudy Dusek and Abe Coleman

definitely yet. but the chances
now are that his 15-round heavy
weight duel between Max Baer and
Max Schmeling will be held IN the
Yankee Stadium here June or 8.

Chicago as a possible site, but the
death of Mayor Anton Cermak, ne

gross almost $500, 900 at the Yankee
Stadium under a seat price scale OF
81 to $40.

"BR0ADCASTING DAY"
REGULATION IS EASED|
Radio Commission Permits Stations
to Suspend Part of Time
on Air.

Taking .cognizance Of the present
financial and economic situation, the
Federal Radio Commission has relaxed
Its tron-clad regulations requiring sta
tions to utilize their wave agreements
to the fullest degree in presentation Of
programs.
Partially suspending this requirement
the commission has rotif1ed stations
that upon proper application they may
point where they will not lose money
The temporary suspension is in force
until June !, but probably will be ex-
tended II conditions warrant.
The first station to take advantage Of
the order was WDEt. Wilmington, Del,
which had on file an application re-
questing authority TO stay on the air
only two hours daily. The commission
approved the request.
Many small stations, hard hit by
curtailed business, have been forced to
''f1ll in" their program schedules with
photograph records and other make
shift programs holding little listener
appeal. They have implored the COM
mission to modify the "broadcasting
day" requirement
Promulgated q year ago, the broad
casting day" regulation specified that
each station should operate q minimum
OF two-thirds of the hours assigned to
1t on its particular channel. The broad
casting day waas prescribed as 10 hours,
30 that q full-time station was forced to
operate a minimum of IL hours A
part-time station had to operate a pro-
portional period Of its licensed hours.
The theory behind the regulation was
to force all stations to give maximum
service to listeners. II station failed
to meet the requirements, the commits
sion made known at the time that
it would curtail its operating hours and
award the extra time to other stations
or to applicants who have been clamor-
ing for additional time or for new sta
tIen facilities.

San Francisco. May 24-(UP) = The self-imposed trial of Tom Mooney. on a charge of murdering one of 10 victims in7the 1916 Pre- paredness Day bombing was ex- pected today to reach a swift end in a directed verdict of acquittal.

But the state reiterated 1t did not even intend to establish that Q crime had been committed.

Scranton, Pa, May 24-(UP)- Walter Shawinski, 28, Colchester, Conn, on trial here for the alleged murder of a Scranton detective during a holdup, took the witness stand in his own defense to-day and said:
 II didn't mean to shoot the offi- cer.'
