NEW YORK, Feb. 21.-The VIM
ter books on the Kentucky Derby
have opened and the government, if
it's as interested in the citizenry as
il seems to be, should order sucker
warnings flown from HatteraS TO
the Golden Gate.
For the winter books, with their
magnetic odds of 100, 200, 500, and
even 1000 to l, draw the suckers
even as the candle does the moth,
the poultice the pain. The urge to
get a whole lot of something for al
most nothing is so Overpowering
that the sucker forgets to remember
that the gentlemen who offer such
luscious odds are wise in the ways
of the world, and are not in the
commission business for their
health.
When such robust figures are
quoted on a horse, you may rest as
sured that somebody knows some
thing. This "somthing" usually is
the knowledge that the horse in
question has gone amiSS. and
couldn't win the Council Bluffs
claiming race, even with the aid Of
an cupboard motor.
: One has only to take peek at
the odds quoted on the decent
nags TO realize that the commits
Sioners aren't giving anything
away. For example, Mr.. Tom
Kearney, noted ST. Louis philan-
thropist, whose heart, like his wallet
runneth over, offers winter book

MEXICO TO SEIZE
CHURCH PROPERTY
Naturalization viii Be
Completed Soon.
By Omitted Press

By United Press
MEXICO CITY, Feb. 2l.-Attor-
ney-General Emilio Portes Gil
issued a decree today that was re-
garded as foreshadowing the early
complete naturalization of church
property of all sorts and denomina-
tons.
Church edifices. residences, schools
converts, aSylums and any other
buildings used directly or indirectly
in religious teaching were covered
by the decree.
1t was held that many churches
had transferred property to groups
and individuals who held title under
dummy sales, and that the church
remained the real owner.
Therefore, Attorney Portes Gil
said, the government intended to
force transfer of such property to
the government in addition to that
owned directly by religious denom-
nations.

Seeking to regain prestige lowered
when Pitt beat them for the second
time this season here last week
end, Notre Danes netmen will en-
gage the fast Michigan State quin-
tet on the Irish floor tonight.
Until the first Pitt victory sew
eral weeks ago, the Spartans had

of the year, holding them to
single-point victory in triple over
time on the East Lansing floor

A capacity crowd of more than

BY CARLOS LANE.

Generosity to a fallen foe is swell
stuff in a sermon, but it's apt to
catch you on the rebound in the
wrestling ring. Take it from Roland
Kirchneyer = and how did any
hombre named Roland ever get
mixed up with the grunters and
groaners?-that from now on his
charity inside the ropes will make
a Scotchman look like a careless
philanthropist.
The Tulsa tomboy dropped the
main event on the weekly Hercules
A. C. wrestling card in the Armory
last night only after he declined a
decision that eventually would have
given him the decision over DR..
Karl Sarpolis, the Chicago dental
expert.
The big grapplers went at each
other in the opening minutes OF
their joust like couple Of college
boys, which they we're only few
seasons ago, Kirchmeyer tossing
e-holdS around for the Oklahoma
Aggies and Sarpolis wearing the
Maroon tights of Chicago uni
versity'S matmen. They broke clean
from the ropes and banished the
usual mat spices of gouging,
smuggling, and such, from their repor-
toire. The two thousand fans
around the ring were shocked into
applause.
Suddenly Sarpolis tipped Roland
with a back body drop and took the
initial fall. Then only few
minutes after the boys came back
to the ring the Chicago dentist
threw himself while trying to down
Kirschmeyer with a leg split.
Referee Heze Clark's decision on
the fall summoned a storm on the
Doctors face and he ragged in pro-
test that Clark had not counted off
the three seconds his shoulders were
on the canvas. GraciouSly Kirch-
meyer called it no fall.
Il can lick that lug without him
throwing himself" said he.
Most of the fans believed that
when shortly afterwards he bounced
high off the ropes with a flying
scissors that carried the Doctor
across the ring and down on the
back of his head to knock him out.
Had the other decision stood it
would have been the finish.
SarpoliS returned to the ring still
groggy. Roland tipped him all over
the canvas with headlOcks, and
thrice threw him into the ropes,
following each time with a leap
in an attempt to fasten another
flying scissors on the fading Sar-
polls
But each attempt only upset
Kirchmeyer, head downward on the
canvas as the Doctor lodged away.
Then one flight left him hanging
with his neck on the floor, only
half conscious from the blow as he
fell. Sarpolis was on him in a
flash and pinned him with spread.
The drop-kick, made famous in the
mat rings by Jumping Joe Savoldi,
came to the Armory ring last night
in the bag Of tricks that Abe Cole
man, New York Hebrew, brought
