ROBINSON VISIONS
INSURANCE ACTION
Says Congress Will Prob
ably Deal With Pensions
Also.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
LITTLE ROCK, December 26.-Pre-
pairing to leave today tor Washington,
Senator Joe T. Robinson, Democratic
leader, said yesterday he believed
Congress would give speedy considers-
ton to unemployment insurance, old
age pensions and health insurance.
Adjustments of the Mississippi flood
control plan also will be undertaken,
said Robinson, who in a lengthy
statement also admonished Senator
elect Holt Of West Virginia not to
present himself to the Senate until
he has attained the required age Of
80 years on June S. 1895.
"Then," said Robinson, "he will be
entitled to be seated. The age limita-
ton applies to the right to be Sena-
tor; that is. to service, rather than to
election"
Foresees Amendments.
Robinson said amendments to the
Agricultural Adjustment Administra-
ton and national industrial recovery
acts probably would be adopted. He
did not say what these amendments
would be.
The subjects of unemployment in
surance. old age pensions and health
insurance will receive attention, and
I believe" he said, "as soon as these
subjects can be properly studied by
committees having jurisdiction of
them, appropriate legislation concern
ing them will be brought forward"
Mentions H. o. l. c.
"A considerable number Of addi-
tional subjects are likely to be taken
up. such as providing funds for the
Home Owners Loan Corporation, ad-
ditional public works. and perhaps
modification of the administrative fea-
lures of the Bankhead act"
The time for adjustment of the
flood control plan has come, said Rob-
inson, who indicated he favored a
plan sponsored by Chief of Army Engi-
neers Markham, as opposed to the
original Jadwin plan for fuse plug
levees, and the plan he referred to as
the Ferguson proposal for a restricted
and controlled spillway area for out
let Of surplus waters.

WILLIAM MARY.
PROBE ORDERED

Sweeping investigation into the
activities Of the board of visitors
Of the College of William and
Mary Of Williamsburg has been
ordered by Governor Peery, Of
Virginia, it was disclosed today,
following complaints of the par
ents Of Charlotte Eleanor Foster
that their daughter had been
dismissed from the school with
out cause.
There is little likelihood of
action during the summer months
since the investigative commit
tees of the Virginia State SEN
ate have no power to act during
recess Of the legislature.
Miss Foster was dismissed from
the school after she is alleged
to have visited q man in the
school town whom officials had
put on the blacklist. Her father
is q Washington attorney.

Mercy and Justice to Clash
In Deportation Case

Less than a year later he OBJ
tanned a British quota visa,
which, it now develops, appar-
emily was issued by mistake.
Investigation has satisfied au.
thorities that the visa was not
obtained through fraud.
The question, therefore, to be
decided by the Secretary Of la
Dor is whether Mr.. Mifsud is
entitled to his visa, now that
he is in possession of it, or
should he be deported because
of technicalities. The case was
argued recently before the board
Of review of the immigration
and Naturalization Service by
Mr.. Mifsud's attorneys, Peter F.
Snyder and Arthur E. Cook.

Coach Glenn s. Pop" Warner,
the "Old Fox" who now coaches
Temple University Of Philadel-

grid rules announced by the foot
ball rules committee in Atlanta,

aren't major changes, but they
add their influence to the air

-hObby-but now that get
money for playing it it's a
business. Nest ce paS?"
Thus did the great French star,
who with Martin Plaa engages
Bill Tilden and Ellsworth Vines
in the first Of a series of inter-
national matches ct Madison
Square Garden Monday night,
explain today the remarkable
change which has taken place in
his physical condition since his
last visit to these shores.
WEIGHED $50.
When Cochet lost his first pro-
fessional match to Tilden in Eu-
rope last year he weighed about
$50 pounds and there was more
than q hint Of flabbiness about
his mid-section. Today, how
ever, he weighs a bare 1873 pounds
and is as hard as the proverbial
nail.
81 have trained very hard"
he explained. "It didn't mat
ter 80 much before whether 1
won or lost when I played ten
mis-. But now 1t matters q great
deal. I can't afford to lose
very often.
Il am in very good condition.
My speed has returned and also
my old steadineSs. / do not grow
tired very easily. And I have
perfected my backhand. It is
not 50 awkward as it was"
Practices Regularly
Since his arrival here from
South America last week, Cochet
has been practicing religiously on
an indoor court and he expects to
give both Tilden and Vines plenty
Of competition when they clash.
He refuses, however, to venture
any definite predictions as to the
outcome Of the international pro
matches.
Both he and Plaa are intensely
interested in the lighting arrange
ments at the Garden. They have
been, attending the hockey matches
there and watching the action of
the puck in an effort to familiar
ize themselves with the shadows.

any bets" COchet declares DhilO-

BY DANNY GILL

Before any individual cham.

the suburban alleys mean to have
their say.
This was made clear in no un-
certain number when the subur-

Uncle" George Isemann, secre-
tary Of the National Duckpin
Bowling Congress, asking they be
included in the Match Game
elimination Tournament. in which
alleys send representatives against
ZACH other to find the District
champion.
Drew Up Schedule
"Uncle" George promptly drew
up a schedule for the outlying
alleys, which gives eight more men

then a world record.
College Park will be represented
by the unmaSked marvel-George

three.time winner of the Mary

eled about the country a few
years ago as the masked marvel,
betting that none could beat
him. If he won he unmasked
