BOXING BILL

House and Senate conferees on
the District boxing bill will be
called into session tomorrow to be-
gin ironing out differences in the
measure, as passed by the two
Houses, Senator William H. King
CDO Utah, chairman of the Senate
District Committee said today.
The Utah Senator declined to
predict what the outcome of the
conference would be, asserting he
personally is opposed to the PROPOSE
ton presented by the House, but
if the House conferees can submit
satisfactory reasons for their posi-
ton, he may be willing to yield to
some compromise.
AS passed by the Senate, the bill
would legalize amateur boxing
only, but the measure which
passed the House would permit
pro fights as well.
The House proposal was ap-
proved by that body without op-
position, and it is expected the
conferees, representing the House,
will make a determined effort to
seek conference, as we'll as Senate
approval, of the prizefighting pro-
vision.

Race Bill In Doubt
McCGrrGn Should See
d. C.. Cars Go to BOlUie

Proponents of horse racing for
the District of Columbia are
much diSheartened by the state
ment Of Senator Pat McCarran
that the measure has little
chance of gaining the sanction
Of the upper branch Of Congress.
In view of the speedy action
secured in the House, there was
for a moment some hope that
this fascinating sport might soon
be added to the strictly local
program, but unless the chair
man Of the subcommittee which
is considering the Senate bill can
be persuaded to withdraw his
opposition, the outlook for horse
racing here is not particularly
bright.
Senator McCarran is quoted
as saying that his objection to
the measure is not personal, but
rather based on a conviction that
Washington residents do not
want the sport.
Tour of Inspection
The good Senator might revise
such a view were he to drive
out the Annapolis Washington
boulevard to the point where the
automobile traffic turns into
the Bowie track proper, and note

bia cars which daily take Wash.
ington residents to the after

The Senator will have to
find another line of reasoning
than that Washington people
don't want racing here, in
order to sustain his opposition
to it.
Bowie and Laurel, the two
nearest tracks to Washington,

Washingtonians, it has been

Hopkins New Role
Freddy Hopkins, race horse
trainer, has been placed in a
role which is quite awkward to
him, racing against one OF his
earliest favorites of the turf.
Hopkins trained the great
Euuipoise in his juvenile cam
paign and also as a four-year-
old, but because of economies
instituted by the Cornelius
Vanderbilt Whitney st BILE,
Freddy was released some time
ago.
He caught on with Allan
Ryan's Anal Stable, for which
he has been in charge this
winter of the training of Lar
ranaga, a potential handicap
champion. Both Equipoise and
Larranaga are nominated for
the more important events for
older horses this spring and

about an element of rivalry

Ferrell Independent
Yves Ferrell, the Cleveland
holdout pitcher, declares he is
independent of baseball and
that he has enough money to
live on for the next 80 years.
That may be so and it may
not. However Yves has a repu-
tation among his fellows in
baseball of being about as
frugal as they come.
Ferre1l is estimated to have
earned about $65,O00 since he
started pitching for the Indians
half a dozen years ago, and
since his living habits are quite
modest, it may be that he has
$4,000 of that socked away.
Some of his teammates believe
he might have that much in the
bank or safely invested.
Believing his arm was shot,
this year, the Indians offered
Yves a $4,000 contract with a
bonus which would be in oper-
alton after 10 victories. Yves

tion his arm is o. K. General
Manager Billy Evans offered to
sell Ferren his release for $685.
600 but Yves wasn't sure enough
of his future to take up that
proposition, nor could be find
another club that was willing
to take the risk.
Ferrell's Record
Ferrell's major league pitch
ing career has been filled with
odd incidents.
He was picked up in 1927
from the semi-pros and given
$4,000 for signing. He pitched
one inning that year and re-
ceived $3.50 therefor.
In 1928 he was farmed to
Terre Haute where he won 20
games and lost eight and was
paid $500 a month. Late in
that season he was taken back
by Cleveland where he pitched
Is innings, lost two games and
drew down $1,603.32.
His first big season, 1929,
found him winning 81 games
for Cleveland, and losing 10.
For this he was paid $2,899,
plus a $4,000 bonus.
His contract for 1880 called
for $4,000 and he received a
bonus of $1,000, winning 25
games.
The following season, 1881,
his salary was $4,000 for
which he turned in % victories.
In 1882 Ferrell would have
received $4,000 except for the

'Heine Manush'S catch fea-

nent part. Heine ManuSh went
on another batting spree TO-
day."
These headlines among many
others have followed the career Of
Heine Manush, veteran outfielder
of the Griffmen, ever since his
first day in Washington uniform.
And many more such stream
ers" are due to keep the man
mountain of Manager Cronin's
select outfield department into the
worlds sportlight if an indication
of his work this spring offers any
idea of how we'll he promises to
keep up the good work.
For Heine has delivered in high
gear again this Spring-delivered
in a manner that foretells another
season Of successful feats-such as
happened to be his fortune in 1888
when he finished only behind the
great Jimmy Foxx, of the Phila-
delphia AS, for the batting cham
pionship of the league; led the
Griffs at bat with an average OF
1886, and went on hitting Sprees
which had records attached to
their respective results.
In Best Condition
Added to this, the veteran has
worked himself into the best Of
condition among the Griffmen.
He didn't have to do a great deal
to arrive at this point as he re-
ported at the Biloxi training camp
on schedule full of pep, win and
'wigor and ready to go.
AS early as his first day in camp,
Heine demonstrated to his team
mates that he was feeling in the
greatest of fettle. He jumped
around on the ball field every mo-
ment, had plenty to shout about
when he stepped up to bat and
slapped several line drives to the
outfield, and had even more, to
say when Manager Cronin allowed
him to take a long workout around
first base after Joe Kuhel had fin
ished his chores there during the
infield drill for the day.
Following this first day. Man
ush continued at his rapid pace,
which fact kept him so alive that
it was he who was able to sock
out a couple of typical Manush
base hits when the actual games
began. And how the big outfielder
liked that!
Heine has been in the big show
for over 10 years now. When he
first arrived he was with the De-
troit Tigers. At that time he had
to sit on the bench because such
potent and talented outfielders as
Bobby VeaCh, Ty Cobb and Harry
Heilmann were the regulars in the
Detroit outfield.
Becomes Regular
But it was not long after
that Heine broke into the line
up, from which point he's been
a regular ever since. Heine
learned a great deal about pep.
win and 'wigor," before his
entrance in those days. It was
because all three of the veter-
ans before him-Veach, Cobb and
Heilmann-posSessed so much VI
tality and aggressiveness that

to practice the same style to be.

Today, one would be almost
"at large" if he said Manus had
not reached the peak of his
success in this baseball business.

high beyond a doubt and it's
every reason why he's such an
aid to the washington Griffmen

Unprepared for War.
Europeans are neither physically
nor emotionally prepared for war,
Davis said. adding that there might be
further political upheavals.
He saw no possibility OF the United
States becoming entangled in the
event OF a European war.
For two months Davis has been par

at Geneva and in conversations on
naval questions at London.
Regarding the bilateral naval dis
cussions between the United States
and Great Britain, Davis said they
were purely exploratory-an exchange

Hungarian Envoy Shocked.
Also arriving on the washington
were John F. Montgomery, United
States Minister to Hungary, and John
l.. Lewis, president of the United Mine
Workers of America.
Montgomery was shocked to learn
of Chancellor Dollfuss' assassination.
He had known the chancellor we'll, he
said; had seen him about a month
ago during an agricultural conference
at Budapest.
He did not think that the Austrian
disorders would have any repercus-
sions in Hungary which, he declared
is the most peaceful spot in the
world"
Lewis, one Of four official United
States observers at the recent Inter-
national Labor Conference in Europe,
said he was disappointed at the iner-
tia displayed by the conferees. He
regretted that the conference deferred
approval Of the 40hour work week.
Labor representatives, he declared,
were ''hopelessly outnumbered, the
majority of delegates representing the
commercial interests of the various

Constance to Austria Saturday was
to be made today by Switzerland.
The Minister to Berlin was In
structed to act after the government
here was informed the shipment was

The incident is officially viewed as
the most serious violation OF Swiss
neutrality since the war.

smuggling and yesterdays putsch in
Vienna was made by the Journal de
Geneva.
1t said an official Swiss investi-
cation showed "the young German
Nazi smugglers were obeying orders
coming from German Leader Gau at
Lindau. Bavaria"
The events yesterday in Austria
caused much alarm In Switzerland,
as the government feels the inde-
pendence of Austria is one of the
corner stones of Swiss neutrality and
independence.
If Austria were to be absorbed by
Germany the whole balance of Switz-
erland's four country boundary would

"CRIMINAL" ACTION
Pontiff Held More Stirred Than
at Any Time Since Begin

VATICAN CITY, July 26.-Pope
Plus expressed deep grief today over
the criminal assassination" of Chan
cellor Dollfuss in lengthy telegram
to President Wilhelm Miklas of Aus
tria.
II take the liveliest part in the
profound sorrow brought upon you,
upon beloved Austria, and the whole
civilized world by the criminal assas-
sination of Chancellor Dollfuss," the
Pope's message said.
The pontiff, through Cardinal Pa
celli. also sent condolences to Frau
Dollfuss. He assured her he was
praying for divine comfort for her
children and gave them his blessing.
In telegram to DR.. Kurt Schusch-
nigg, for a few hours head of the
Austrian government, his holiness
said he was praying 'fervently to
omnipotent God to place the troubles
of Austria under His divine protec-
ton and liberate her from the spirit
of odium which brought this
eXecrable act"
Prelates of Vatican City said no
other event which they can recall
since the present pontiff assembled to
his throne has so thoroughly stirred
him. This profound impression was
caused, the prelates said, not only
because of Dollfuss' political promi-
nence, but because of his personal
and sympathetic contact with the
holy father himself.
