Eight-year-old Stanley Wiener
of 48 v st. N. w., never played
fiddle for the czar, but he expects
to WELD a sophisticated bow to-
morrow morning at Central High
School for "SiStie" and "Buzzie"
Dali and a thousand or more
young ladies and gentlemen who
will attend the National Sym
phony Orchestra students con-
cert.
And is Stanley all a-fever over
the opportunity to be the featured
violin soloist for an audience in
cluding the Presidents grand
children!
At the age Of 5, young Stanley
Wiener had so developed his violin
technique and showed so much
evidence of his ability that his
teacher, Frank Gittelson, concert
master of the National Symphony
Orchestra, obtained a scholarship
for the youngster at Peabody Con-
servatory of Music, Baltimore.
And that's no mean tribute to
Stanley's genius, for in the annals
of American music it is not re-
called that any person so young
has been so signally honored.
DR.. Hans Kinder, director of
the National Symphony. is a
warm friend Of Wiener Pere.
One day DR.. Kinder. visiting the
Wiener home, was attracted by
the sounds of violin music ema-
mating from another part of the
house. The maestro, with his
usual vigor, shouted:
"ShadeS Of Paganini! Who's
playing?"
Wiener smiled and modestly
replied the double-stopping and
portamentoes, not to mention
the technical gymnastics, we're

RICHMOND, Va, Jan. 12.-vir-

Of REVENUE To
EDUCATION
-Loudoun Delegates Measure
LegaIizes Pari-MutueIs, But
Provides ReferendumS
Times staff Correspondent

RICHMOND, Jan. 12.-Schools
and State and county fairs would
benefit financially under the terms
of two bills legalizing pari-mutuel
betting in Virginia, introduced in
in the House of Delegates by Dele
gate Wilbur c. Hall, Of Loudoun.
One of the bills merely legalizes
the particular form of gambling
while the other sets up a comph-
Gated method of appointing a rae
ing commission, licensing tracks.
setting the license fees, and fixing
other details of running a racing
plant.
Schools Benefit Most
To get around much Of the op-
position such a proposal is bound
to raise, Mr.. Halls bill specifies
rs per cent of the revenue reach
ing the State shall be used for
free public schools.
A second thought of Mr.. Halls
is that the remaining IS per cent
shall be used for purchase OF
premium awards for agricultural
and live stock exhibits at State
and county fairs.
While the bills theoretically
legalize pari-mutuel gambling, vot-
erS in counties where tracks are
proposed must vote on the ques'
ton. Upon petition of so or more
qualified voters, the judge Of the
Circuit Court would set a date for
a county referendum on the issue.
Commission Provided
Although he earlier said the
bill would limit the number of
tracks in the State to three, there
is nothing in the bill as filed
that places any limit on the
number. He also said, a few
days ago, racing would be limited
to 80 days in one year. The bill
calls for 100 days of racing in the
State.
The Governor would appoint
three members of the Virginia
Commission and also would desig-
nate the chairman. With the ex-
ception of the first commission
ers, who would be appointed as of
July l, 1884. their terms would
be six years each.
One member of the first COM
mission would serve until January
l, 1886, another until the cor
responding day in 1888. and the
third until January /, 1910. Each
would be required to furnish bond
Of $4,000. They could be re-
moved on sufficient cause after a
public hearing by the Governor.
State Share In Gate
Three and a half per cent of
the pari-mutuel machine pools"
; would be paid to the State. This
would constitute the tracks IL
Cense fee.
In addition the track would
turn over to the State 10 per
cent of it's gate receipts.
The Washington times., 1934-01-12

Permission Urged
It opposed licensing any place
for the exclusive sale of alcoholic
beverages by the drink and asked
that no license be issued within
400 feet of a school, university or
church.
The report suggested that per
mission should be secured from
residents within 600 feet of the
proposed establishment and hotels
and restaurants should serve
liquor at tables only.
Off sales licenses should be
confined to grocery and drug
stores and a small Federal and
local tax should be levied to dis
courage bootlegging.

deliver a copy of his resolution
to Senator William H. King and

Reasonable" Share Sought
As League Petitions Off
ciaIS of municipalities
BY Times Staff Correspondent

RICHMOND, Va, Jan. IL.
Virginia's cities and towns are
preparing today to demand a
reasonable" share Of the rev.
enues expected to be derived
from the liquor business into
which heretofore bone-dry Vir-
ginia is about to embark.
The communities are rallying
under the banner Of the League
Of Virginia Municipalities, which
yesterday sent out a letter to
officials Of the "a independent
cities and a number Of towns in
which the league said:
"SOme Of our leaders openly
favor the retention Of all liquor
revenues by the State. This
would seem to be eminentIy
unfair to the municipalities
and counties, and out Of line
with the action that has been
taken in q majority of the
States which have acted upon
the liquor question TO date.
FINANCIAL AID NEEDED
TN the first place, the IOcali-
ties as well as the State need
financial assistance.
"The police problem will be
increased by reason of the
liquor stores, and this burden
will fall upon the municipali-
ties and the counties, as well
as the burden Of seeing the
State secure its liquor revenue"

CINCINNATI CLUB
 | MUST WIN TODAY TO PREVENT TIE
Brooklyn Itching to Get at Giants in Two Game
 Series Tomorrow

New York, September 28 - (UP) = The St Louis Cardinals can deadlock the idle New York Giants today in their grand scram- ble for the National eLague pen- nant by beating the tail-end Cin- cinnati Reds.
 Yesterday's 8-5 victory over the Reds in the opener of their final four-game series left the Cards a meagre half-game behind Bill Terry's world champions who start ed two days of rest.
 If the Cards beat the Reds again today. while the Giants are idle. the standing for both New York and St Louis will be:
 Won Lost P. c.
 93 58 .616
 Tied for the top, each club then would try to break out of the dead lock as the Giants wound up the season with two games against Brooklyn, and the Cards finished two contests with Cincinnati.
 Real Rivalry
 Peculiarly, both the Giants and Cards are finishing against clubs which hope each loses in the pen nant fight. Manager Charley Dresser of the Reds is one of Bill Terry's closest friends. He and his Cincinnatins will battle to the last out against St Louis, so the Giants will win. Terry brought Dresser nup from Nashville in the closing stages of the 1883 pen nant chase for third base insur- ance and saw to 1t that Dresser got cut of the World Series swag. Charley hasn't forgotten. But Casey Stengel and his Brooklyn Dodgers hate the Giants like cynide. Metropolitan rivals for years. tactless Bill Terry wid- ened the breach this spring by in, uuiring scornfully of baseball writers. ''are the Dodgers still 1T the lcague?"
