yesterday, Dy unanimous con-
sent, the Walsh Hartley bill, de-
signed to legalize amateur box
ing in the District, passed the
Senate. At the same time, it
became known that concerted
opposition and lack of concerted
support bid fair to kill all chance
of passing the Black bill. The
Black bill would legalize horse
and dog racing here.
Bill Goes To House
The House is expected to get
the Walsh-Hartley bill on Mon
day. Public hearings on the
Black racing bill are to start
Friday at 10 a. m. before the
District Commissioners in the
District Building.
Representative Loring Black,
also author of the horse racing
bill, today made preparations to
tack on an amendment to his
own boxing bill. This amend
ment would legalize professional
boxing, as we'll as amateur. If
the amendment gets the ap-
proval Of the District Committee
it will be offered in the House
Monday.
The Walsh-Hartley bill allows
boxing for boys 8 years old and
upward, while the professional
measure contained in the Black
boxing bill calls for boxing by
youths over 18 years of age.
In passing the Walsh-Hartley
bill yesterday the Senate agreed
to allow a maximum charge Of 50
as admission fee. This bill
further permits prizes not exceed
ing $35 in value.

4 COUNTY F|VES
To COMPETED IN
TOURNAMENT

Takoma-Silver Spring, Sher-
wood, Damascus and Rockville
are the four teams that will con-
test in the sixth annual Sports
manship Tournament in Rock
vile High School gymnasium on
Friday night, March 2.
The tournament, sponsored by
the Rockville chapter Of the
Sportsmanship Brotherhood, is
unique among sports events. It
is an invitation event and has
nothing whatsoever to do with a
championship. The sole purpose
Of the tourney Is to develop
sportsmanship among players
and spectators.
Endorsed by President
Throughout the United States
and abroad many chapters Of
the Brotherhood are active in
progressive secondary schools and
colleges. The organization is en-
dorsed by such famous men as
President Roosevelt, Owen D.
Young, MATHEW Woll and others.
The first game will start at 1880
o'clock, the second game will be
staged at $3.50 o'clock, and the
winner will meet in the final con-
test which will start at 10 o'clock.
A bronze cup, now a coveted
trophy because Of the activities OF
the Rockville Chapter OF the
Brotherhood, will be presented to
the winner of the tournament.
Method of Deciding
The method by which the win
ner of the cup is determined is un-
usual. Twenty points are given the
winner of a game. However, two
points are taken away for every
foul committed, while IS points
are taken away from a team los
ing two games.
In the five tournaments preced-
ing this one, Takoma-Silver Spring
has won three, Rockville one and
BetheSda-Chevy Chase one. Ia
koma-Silver Spring won in 1929,
again ip 1881 and third time in
1888. Rockville won in 1880, and
Bethesda Chevy Chase in 1882.

of horses and not "a racing
man." nevertheless Commissioner
Hazen has a number of friends
who feel that he should support
the racing measure.
Hearings on the racing measure
will be held Friday morning in
the District Building and at that
time Commissioner Hazen hopes
for a clear showing of sentiment
by those attending. The hearing
will be open to anyone who
wishes to express views on the
proposed legislation.
Commissioner HaZen pointed
out today that the surrounding
States have a large investment
in the breeding of horses and
that this makes racing beneficial
to the industry.
Only Bad Reaction
The District, he pointed out,
would get only the bad reaction
without the benefits of the in
dustry.
Commissioner Allen pointed out
that there was plenty of racing
all around the District and ex-
planned that for this reason he
did not see any reason the bill
should be passed for the District.
He stated:
'If this were a State or a
larger territory and there were
no racing tracks within easy
distance Of the city, might
be inclined to favor it, but un.
der the present circumstances
I am unalterably opposed to
the BILL"

50 EXPECTED
To COMPETE
IN EVENT
BY DANNY GILL

You've heard of open tourna.
ments Of various and sundry
kinds, but it's doubtful If you've
heard Of any which is open wider
than the first annual Lorraine
GULL Sweepstakes tomorrow after
moon and night at Lonnie Krauss'
Columbia Alleys.
There's a great big cavity wait
ing to be filled by an opportunist.
for the premier woman bowler
Of the United States. who is spon-
Soring the event, has promised to
refrain from participating in the
stakes. which are sanctioned by
the National Duckpin Bowling
Congress and the Washington
Women's Duckpin Association.
The entry fee is 81. There will be
10 games, with five starting at 3
p. m. and five at p. m.
Scores Are Safer
Not only will the girls scores
be relatively safer, but the psyche
logical effect will also be a de.
cided factor. Knowing they will
not have to pit their skill against
that of Miss Gulli, the contenderS
will be able to concentrate more
on the pins.
A field of more than so is ex-
pected to be on hand, with at
least 10 coming from Baltimore
and possibly three from Rich
mond. From the latter city will
be Ida Simmons, Mary Stapleton
and Dot Keel O'Brien, while Bal
timore expects to include in its
delegation Lotta Janowitz, who
has been kept from winning sew
eral titles because Of the pres
ence of Miss GULL in the same
event; Mary Galloway and Frances
Krieg.
Fear Mrs. Lynn
Neither Miss GULL nor Lonnie
Krauss was willing to venture an
opinion as to the possible winner,
believing it anyone's race. Miss
GULL did say, however, inasmuch
as the GULL Sweepstakes is a
10-game affair, and the Chesa-
peake Sweepstakes, held Sunday
was the same sort Of a test, Mar
garet Leaman Lynn, who finished
behind her for second place,
should have a slight advantage.
Billie Butler, too, is rolling
good now, and finished fourth in
the Chesapeake. Rena Levy, the
leading southpaw, is another good
bet, although she has done her
best work over the 15-game route,
finishing second in the only two
Stakes in which she competed.
Not to be overlooked, however,
are such pin-pounders as Evelyn
Ream, Lucille Young, Catherine
Ouigley, Sammy" Fortney, Irene
Scott, Mrs. Merceda ISemann,
Mrs. Evelyn Ellis, Marie Whalen,
BesS Ackman, BeSs Hoffman,
Lucy owen, Pauline Bradburn,
Elsie Fischer, Pauline Ford and
others of that class.

LOVGREN CHILDREN
GIVEN BIG PARTY

Pacific coast newspapers on Wednes-
day carried the following Associated
Press story from Alameda, California:
Gwen if they are only IL and 9
years old, Yerol Lovgren and his little
sister, Marie, will remember this
Christmas for long time.
"a week ago they lost their mother
and father, Mr.. and Mrs. Harold
Lovgren, in motorcycle accident near

"They were guests at Christmas
party in the home of a neighbor, Mrs.
E. L. Winters, where Santa Claus,
aided by merchants of this city, the
American Legion, Red Cross and
others, contributed clothing and other
useful articles-and, too, some toys and
candy. School chums were guests OF

ering.

TRAPPERS WARNED
AGAINST OFFENSES

The state game department calls at
tention to the law which requires that
licensed trappers must tag their traps
with an indestructible tag with the
true name and address of the owner
of the trap in English letters not less
than quarter inch in height. Since
the opening of the trapping season
game protectors have placed under ar
rest several persons who did not have
their traps so tagged. Persons using
"any steel trap of larger size than
that commonly known and called a
number three trap shall post a notice
printed in English, or a placard at
least six inches by ten inches in size
in plain sight, above said trap, stating
that large steel trap is set below and
sretching wire not less than four
feet above the ground and not less
than ten feet from each trap, around
and on all sides thereof"

CHRISTMAS SCENE
CHARMS AUDIENCE

About $50 people attended the COM
munity Christmas program in the
White Bluffs high school auditorium
last Thursday evening, December TO-
The short operetta presented by the
grade school, assisted by a chorus Of
high school and eighth grade girls,
was very impressive. Many beautiful
effects were obtained by the use of
colored lights, especially in the last
act, which pictured the Three Wise
Men, chorus Of angels and Mary and
the Christ Child in the manger.
A huge Christmas tree at one side
of the auditorium added to the effect.
Also, Santa Claus appeared near the
end of the program with short mes
sage to the children. He also assisted
in giving out 240 bags of Christmas
candy and popcorn to the children.
The success of the program was due
to the combined efforts of many
groups in the community The pro-
gram itself by the schools; the Christ
mas tree by Harold Keen lighting by
the P. P. & L., decorations by the
Presbyterian church, donations for
candy by the teachers, Legion Auxil-
larry, business men and members OF the
community, and popcorn by the Junior
Women's club. A vote of thanks is also
due the members of the Woman's club
who helped sack the candy and pop
corn. The teachers who had charge
of the program wish to thank the
community as whole for it's whole
hearted SllpDOrt

To Attend Meet
Local Directors Will Be
Voted Upon Monday,
January z

"We want every one of our stock
holding members in Benton county to
be present at their first annual meet
ing of the Yakima Valley Production
Credit Association in Yakima Janu-
airy 7th'
This urgent invitation is extended
by directors of the Yakima Valley Pea,
who emphasize that matters OF real
Importance and interest to members
will be taken up Secretary Ray Tate
says that all farmers are welcome to
attend the meeting, but only those
owning Glass B stock will have the
privilege of voting. Glass stock
holders have one vote each, regardless
of the number of shares they own.
1.-THE Yakima Valley Production
Credit Association is the farmers own
cooperative organization for making
production loans on business basis
at actual COST" Mr.. Tate points out
"It isn't a government agency and 1t
doesn't loan government money. The
federal government, through the farm
credit administration, helped provide
the machinery, but 1t is up to farmers
themselves to operate this machinery
successfully
1--WE want all farmers to learn more
about this cooperative credit system
by attending the annual meeting jan
uary 7 at Yakima. A full report Will
be given on the past seasons opera
lions and there will be opportunity
for full discussion. Everyone is going
to have better understanding when
they leave this meeting-and we hope
they will become enthusiastic boosters
for cooperative credit"
Local directors to serve for the COM
ing year will be esectad by members,
and plans will be made for the coming
seasons operations. Ernest E. Henry,
president of the Production Credit Cor
poration of Spokane, will be present
to explain the whole farm credit ad-
ministration system, with particular
reference to the production credit di-
vision.

BUY GOOD CHICKS
FOR REPLACEMENT

Buy vigorous chicks bred to lay large
numbers of large eggs, is the advice OF
w. D. Buchanan, State College extern
sion poultryman, to those who WILL
soon be purchasing stock to build up
their focks. Good chicks inherit prac-
tically all the qualities which later
make for high producing pullets and
hens. For this reason, the flock records
of the hatchery where the chicks are
purchased should be thoroughly in
vestigated for these qualities.
Ability for high production of large
eggs must be bred into a bird or It
will be of no value. Although 1t is not
always possible to buy chicks from
trap-nested dams, it is possible to
know the flock average which is be-
hind the chicks. AS the rooster is
nineteen -twentieths of the flock, chicks
should always be purchased from a
flock mated to pedigreed cockrels. The
ROSTERS dams and sires should show
breeding for number and size of eggs
for generations back.
Vigor is another important inner
tied quality. This can be easily OBJ
4 served. Chicks should be ready to Jump
out of the box on arrival and should
live. Death may be due to misman-
agement, chilling, overcrowding, over
heating, poor feeding or disease. Spe-
/ cial precautions should be taken to
see that chicks are from flock tested
for bacillary white diarrhea or pull
forum disease If proper care is given
the chicks, no one but the owner Is
responsible if they die.
Chicks bred to lay 100 eggs year
or more repay the added initial cost
many times when compared to those
with no background of breeding for
egg production. Mortality Of good
chicks is much lower than that of the
ordinary run and consequently re-
placements in the flock are cut to a
minimum The poultryman will always
be far ahead by paying five cents more
for good chick than by buying stock
that has no pedigreed ancestry or In
herited ability for egg production.
