(United Press Staff Correspondent
New York, Feb II - CU.P.) -
Many a COW has been MIXED since
I went to school and read in my
red reader that this was the land
of opportunity and look what Lin
coin did.
But somehow this fact didn't i'm
press me then. Perhaps I was too
busy making spitballs, or dipping
Lily Smiths pigtails in the inkwell.
Anyway, 1t wasn't until to-day,
when fell to thinking about one
Bill O'Brien, that realized that
in this country Of ours opportunity
doesn't contest itself with sitting
on its launches just around the
corner, but comes galloping up 10
knock on front door, back door,
and window pane.
Not SO long ago Bill O'Brien, If
his biographers are not up to some
knayery, was a rubber. A rubber Is
a gentleman with a cap on who
takes an athletes tired body, plops
It on q table, and beats out of it
the commodity sometimes referred
to as hell. Because Of some strange
psychological power in the rubber,
the athlete, worse off than before,
gets up thinking he feels swell.
Or perhaps it isn't strange
psychological power at all, but the
fact that the horse liniment. snake
oil, bear grease and herbs that the
rubbers use to rub with, leaves the
athlete smelling so strongly he
runs faster simply to get away
from himself.
Anyway, Mr. O'Brien was rub

DAYS with offers to Helen wills

whose handclasp still retains the
pressure he used to exert in keep
ing C. C. Pyle's athletes glowing
with the pink that Is health, who
is keeping the United states Lawn
Tennis Association awake these
nights.
Rubber O'Brien has offered con-
tracts to all of tennis big box
office names. He insists most OF
them will soon be under his ban
ner, already he has shared such
renowned figures as Vines and CO.
chet and Plaza. A little more jang--
ling of the coin in his pocket, and
don't be surprised to see the pro-
fessionals on top in this country.
I doubt II anybody will be sorry
II Rubber O'Brien's plan works
out. Excepting, of course, those

amateur tennis their business. 1t
would be sort of nice to see the
old gentlemen of amateur tennis
who have fought so long and SO
senselessly against an open tour
nament, forced to ask the pros for
just such a meeting in order to
keep their uncovered stadiums
from crumbling with decay.
So ends to-day's little sermon.

HAUPTMANN HAS
 WON FIRST BLOW
 IN CONTROVERSY
Had Hearing on His Habe. as Corpus Writ Put over Until Monday

New York, Oct I1- lUP1 - Bruno R. Hauptmann won tho opening skirraish in his fight 44 gainst extradition to face charEe1 of murdering the Lindbergh baby in New Jersey when hearing on . habeas corpus writ was postponed today until Monday.
 Postponement was on request Of the defense, over opposition of New Jersey officials. x
 Judge Barrett rescined the $100.s 900 bail fixed for the Bronx car~ penter-which he had never fur~| nished-and released the prisoner on his own recognizance so that Jersey could immediately serve q bench warrant for his arrest. This was a technicality observed so that extradition to New Jersey might not be delayed because Of tho formalities connected witL bail.
 The formality of serving the ex- tradition warrant from New Jersey on James M. Fawcett, Hauptmann'a attorney was carried out and tho last legal obstacle to Hauptmann'G . removal to face murder charge at Bennington, N. J.,-except for defense attempt to obtain a habeas corpus writ-was removed.
 For three seconds only, Haunt mann was a free man. That was after the judge released him on his own recognizance. Then the New York police, ;.cting on the ex- tradition request approved by Gov. Herbert H. Lehman. took him into custody.
