TRACKS AIMING
At TLOWERLEVY
IN MARYLAND
BY PADDOCK


Unless some relief is obtained
from Governor-elect Harry w.
Nice, Of Maryland, the four major
tracks in that State will not open
it's doors next season.
Due to the slump in wagering
this year of 100000, the race
tracks will not be able to carry on
with a $4,000 tax levied for each
racing day. In addition, the
State collects l per cent of the
mutuel betting at all tracks and
Is per cent of the net revenue OF
each track, this, of course, for the
general admission.
Yield Near 100000
Racing this year is expected to
yield to the State in the neighbor-
hood of 100000. In addition to
the per diem State tax, the Mary
land Jockey Club, of Baltimore, ID
assessed $4,000 day by Baltimore
county.
Representatives of Maryland
tracks met yesterday in the Of
flee of Stuart S. Janney in the
Baltimore Trust Building, fol.
lowing which Matthias L. Dagger,
secretary of the Maryland Jockey
Club, acting as spokesman for
the group said:
UP TO NEW GOVERNOR
Eve discussed Maryland'S
racing situation thoroughly.
We made no plans and don't
intend to do SO until we find
out exactly what GOvernOr-elect
Harry w. Nice does in the
matter of giving us relief from
the present $4,000 per day tax.

The owners of the four major
tracks also have refused to make
up their yearly schedule until
they heard something definite
from the governor.

King David although losing

fought consistent fight to main

Potomac bowlers winning 8 out

a position that leaves all the

has not been expected. and JACK
Ulrich and the old reliable
Stevens are more than holding
their own.
Petworth Looks Good
Petworth duckpinners with a
team average of only one point
less than the leading team have
been my mysterious pets" for
several seasons-always having
good talent but never clicking.
This might be their year. Belk,
who is plenty off form at present,
might be just what they need
when he gets going.
Lebanon, Takoma, Whiting and
Hope, the next four teams, prob
ably will not keep their present
high standing although Lebanon
is at least 80 per cent better than
they were last year.
Columbia, West Gate, National
and Congress in the next group
are just about where they will
finish.

imbued with the winning spirit.

KIDNAPPED GIRL IS RECOvERINC;
 GIVES DETAILS
Description of Two Men Who Visited June Robles
 Is Given Authorities
FlNGERPRlNTS ARE
 BEING EXAMINED
Little Body Roasted by Sun Death by Knife Threat
 ened If She Cried

TUCSON, Arizona, May 16.-The authorities are piecing together the bits of weird story told by six year-old June Robles, found Mon day afternoon in a desert tomb like prison, after being kidnapped April 25, and are pushing ahead on the search for her abductors.
 June is greatly aiding the auth critics as she is recovering from her horrifying experience.
 The authorities indicated that her description of the two men who visited her during her trench confinement might lead to their apprehension.
 Examine Fingerprints
 The utensils found in the sand trench have been examined for fingerprints for comparison with those on the letters mailed from Chicago which gave Gov. B. B. Moeur the tip as to where the little girl would be found 2
 Little Junes body is simply roasted from being shut in that awful box and the sun beating on her.
 Ate Mouldy Food
 Her forehead has sores from eating mouldy food.
 The doctors said her legs are sore where the chains on her little limbs wore into the flesh. Knife Threatened
 June's grandmother said the child told her they would put the knife to her if she cried and the little girl did not cry during her long confinement but kept expect ing something would happen to release her.
 June is resting quietly, trying to forget and is looking forward to her return to school.

ROME PLIERS FORGED DOWN
 IN IRELAND
Leaky Gasoline Line and Coughing Engine Given
 as Reasons for Landing

LA LYNCH, Irish Free State, May 16-Capt. George R. Pond and Lieut. Cesar Sabelli, who hopped off from Brooklyn Mon- day morning at 6:24 o'clock on an attempted nonstop flight to Rome, landed here after 32 hours in the air.
 A broken gasoline line was given as the reason for the interrupted flight, and the fliers plan to con- tinue on to Rome.
 They told story of missing death by inches as they flew across the Atlantic, fighting leaking gas- oline and smoking, coughing en- zine. The motor was in bad shape when they landed, and the under carriage was badly damaged in a crackup landing.
 The the last hundred miles the aviators flew over the water with their engine coughing terribly. They expected to fall into the water at any moment, and were only 80 feet above the surface at one time, travelling only 30 miles an hour.
 Sahelli crawled down the fusilage toward the rear tank in a bowling wind and patched up the faulty gasoline line.
