BY International News Service
Use of the prestige of the Fed
eral government to curtail school
opportunities of rural children
was assalied today by Miss Jessie
Gray, president of the National
Education association.
Citing activities by the Federal
Land Bank, in Omaha. to induce
farmers to demand a slashing of
school expenditures, Miss Gray
appealed to Secretary of Interior
1ckeS, who supervises the Federal
Bureau of Education, to halt the
practice.
Aroused by the land bank ac-
tivitieS, the N. E. A. authorities
were considering a request for a
congressional investigation n d
an appeal directly to President
Roosevelt.
Miss Gray made public cir
cular of the Federal Land Bank

Miss Gray's letter to Ickes said:
"The National Education AS
sOciatiOn looks with alarm on
this unwarranted use of govern
ment influence to restrict edu-
catiOnal advantages within the
States. We are sure that nei-
ther the President nor Congress
anticipated any such use of gov
ernment funds and prestige.
"Since the interests of educa-
ton, so far as the Government
is concerned, are entrusted to
the Department Of the Interior
and to the office OF eHucatiOn.
we hereby request you to in
vestigate the activities of Fed
eral land banks to control edu.
cation policies in rural areas,
and we urge you to take what
ever action necessary to put an
end to any such use of govern
ment funds, and to any such
abuse of the rights of the school
districts in the States"

Tribute to Honored Dead.
In its inception the Easter sunrise
service at Arlington contemplated a
ceremony by the local Grand Com
mandery of knights Templar, which
should be in the nature CT tribute to
the horored dead Of the order who are
buried at Arlington. Immediately the
event took on an interest and assumed
proportions which made it something
more than one of purely local impor-
tance. The service from the start be-
came general in its aspects and the
attendance is from every walk of life
in the Nation The first service was
held in 1881. at which time President
and Mrs. Hoover were among the guests
and visitors who numbered more than
10000. Last year Mr.. and Mrs. Hoover
again were present, and although the
weather was extremely inclement, more
than 1000 made the pilgrimage to the
cemetery.
Anticipating a large attendance on
Easter morning, arrangements on an
extensive scale have been made to take
care of the crowd. Soldiers from Fort
Myer will assist the regular staff at
Arlington. Ample parking space has
been allotted on the Fort Myer reserva-
ton, just outside the west gate of the
cemetery.
The Religious Services Committee of
the Grand Commandery, having the
ceremony in charge, is composed Of
Eugene E Thompson, che eirman: Will

Arthur M Poynton, Arthur c. Shaw
and J. Claude KEEPER.

CORKING good ball player in the

A CORKING good ball player in the
IA minors for four years, Boken still
was virtually Unknown when the Wash
ington club bought him from Kansas
City for little more than song last
Winter. Then it developed that several
other big league clubs had bid for the
lanky blond, but had failed to press
for a deal. . .-..
Boken had little chance to do any
thing with Washington this year until
Myer, the clubs regular second sacker,
was hit in the head by pitched ball
in a Detroit game early in May. Sent
to second base, Boken socked soundly
to make that Western trip fairly re-
spectacle for the Nationals.
Boken crashed professional base ball
in 1929, joining the Tyler club Of the
old Lone Star State League. He soon
moved to Midland of the Western Texas
circuit, and in 1880 he was with Joplin
OF the Western Association. Then
Kansas City had him for two seasons.
His big year in the minors was 1880
when he was the offensive star of his
circuit and was voted the most valuable
player in the Western Association.

COLUMBUS BETERS
LITTLE SERIES LEAD
Takes Fourth Game, lis, to Gain
81 Margin as Battling
Shifts to Buffalo.

By the Associated Press
COLUMBUS, Ohio, September 80.
With Columbus holding two
game edge, the little world series
battle shifted today to Buffalo. where
the Red Birds and the Bisons will
battle tonight in their third successive
night game.
The Columbus engagement ended
with an 11-to-5 victory for Columbus
last night. That brought the score to
three victories for Columbus and one
for Buffalo.
The sixth game will be played Sum
day afternoon at Buffalo, the series
continuing there until one of the
teams has won five.
Four Buffalo pitchers paraded from
the dugout to the box last night in a
vain attempt to halt the Red Bird at
tack, which netted II hits. The Bisons
garnered 10 blows, but except in the
sixth inning, when they pushed across
four runs, they were held in check by
Clarence Lefty" Heise, the associa-
tion's leading pitcher.
After Heise was taken out for q
pinch hitter in the seventh Bill Lee fin
ished up, allowing only two bingles
1t was Lees first pitching in artificial
light.
Perkins lasted four and one-third
innings for Buffalo. Gould finished the
fourth. Lucas succeeded him and al
lowed only one hit In two innings, but
went out for a pinch hitter and was
replaced by Wilson. Jack Rothrock
was the hitting star for the Birds
He made three singles and batted in
four runs. Carnegie's home run, double
and single in four times at bat, and
the two runs he batted in, gave him
the Bison slugging honors.

Who's Who With the Nationals

COMMERCIAL art is a noble calling,
~ but money comes to young fellow
faster in professional base ball. Which
makes Burke a left-hand pitcher. The
art business will be taken up later.
When youngster, Burke did great
deal of ball playing for st. Patrick's
and township high schools in Joliet
and was star on the sandlots, too.
The late Joe Cantillon was managing
Little Rock in 1926. From Joliet friends
he heard of the promising Burke and
signed the boy. At the end of the 1926
campaign Burke was drafted by the
Washington club.
Excepting a brief spell with Birming-
ham and q lay-of due to illness part
of last year, Burke has been a Wash
ington active since.
Although used mainly in relief roles,
Burke has done some starting of games.
On August 8, 1881, he pitched a no
hitter against the Red Sox in Wash
ington, and once he was credited with
beating the Red Sox in Boston, although
making but one pitch in<1he game.

In his schooldays, Kerr earned lau-

He took up base ball seriously in 1922
when he joined the Calgary team of
the Western International League. Then
he moved to Albany, Salt Lake City and
Hollywood before landing with the White

Chicago in a Winter trade made after
the 1881 campaign.
While playing at second base with
the White Sox Kerr in game against

With Hollywood in 1928, he was an
