MAT PROWESS

Local wrestling fans are firmly
convinced today that it will re-
quire something more than hu.
man strength to take the meas.
ure of Hans Steinke in the wrestl.
ing arena.
The powerful German last
night fulfilled his promise to dis.
pose of two opponents within 45
minutes at the Washington Audi
torium with some 5000 onlookers
giving approval. He dispatched
Leo Bacigalupi in IL minutes
with a toe-hold and arm-press
and Jack Macarthur in 1919 min
utes with a body-press. In fact
Steinke had several minutes left
in which to take on a few more
opponents.
AS Steinke stood over the fal
len Bacigalupi, Macarthur rushed
into the ring and rained blows
on the Germans back. Puzzled
by this unexpected attack but as
little hurt as though a flea had
jumped on him, Steinke wheeled
to face his attacker and dished
out punishment that found Nc
Arthur begging for mercy.
Jim Mcmillan defeated Joe
Dusek through the use of a fly
ing tackle in the headline bout
requiring 40 minutes for the task
The youngest member of the
Dusek wrestling tribe gave his
more experienced foe a tough
battle for half an hour but
kened under McMillan's
straight-arm punches.
Andy Rascher, of Indiana, and
bare footed Scotty McDougall
went 80 minutes to a draw as
did DR.. Arlen Hall and Ernie
Zellers. Henry Fields, OF Penn
flipped Gentleman" Mike Ro
mano, the veteran Italian, in 16
minutes with a body-slam.

: The BOOkies Can Help
! But So Must Officials
| This Is Only a Start

} officials, or powers that were,
in the sport who appeared to
give a tinker's damn what was
done to the public within the
confines of their race tracks, or
what the public got for its
money.
Now as I understand it
there'l be two more racing
measures presented to Governor
Lehman during the current SeS-
sion Of the legislature. With the
Dunnigan bill, which calls for
the appointment of a state rae.
ing commission, this bureau Is
not concerned. It doesn't matter
who runs the sport so long as it
is run fairly and decently and
with some thought Of the public
that pays, as is the case in Flor
ida, New Hampshire, Illinois,
Maryland, Kentucky, Texas.
But the Twomey resolution to
permit pari-mutuelS, which
would necessitate an amend
ment to the constitution, and
which must pass the legislature
again next year and then be
voted on by the people, interests
me.
Ak Over Sport
From where I sit it looks
mighty like an axe hanging
over the sport as it will be con-
Quoted under the new law this
summer. If the return to the
open ring proves as happy as
its champions insist, then there
will never be any need for
mutuels. In which case we are
not likely to get them.
Everybody who reads this
knows I have always been in
favor of the iron men," but
I'll fight 'em tooth and toenail
if the boys can show me bet
ter game. simply have never
seen anything better thus far
for the run of the mine, every
day, John @. Public horse
player. When do see something
better, I'll be for that. That's
fair, isn't it?
But I go back to my theme
song that the bookm a kers
mustn't and can't reasonably
be expected to do it all.
Must Get Horses
The racing folks must get
some horses out there on the
track. Six horse races are few
enough for the price Of admis-
sion they are going to ask.
Every one of them should be a
horse race. No more Of this two
and three starters gag, because
some trainer wishes to wait and
get his nag in where he's a
mortal cinch.
The old game died because
everybody was out to cinch
things for himself-to make it a
sure thing. Because all any,
body around the track could see,
and would see, was his own
selfish interest. Because with a
few notable exceptions, such as
the Whitneys, Mr.. Woodward,
The Wideners, Mr.. and Mrs.
Kilmer and a few others, it got
to be q sport in which there
was no sport and no sporting
blood.

STOCK MARKET
NERVOUS OVER
WHEAT DROP
By WALL STREET SPECTATOR

By WALL STREET SPECTATOR
NEW YORK. April 20 Q.N.S0.
Wall Street is jumpy all over
again as a result of the new
spill in wheat. The market is
still able to show a lot of Stub
borness but won't be able to
stand up indefinitely. Appar-
emily some big money is coming
into stocks, which explains why
they are holding up.
However, the big decline in
grains since Monday has created
too wide a discrepancy in pur-
chasing power between what the
farmer gets and what he has to
buy.
There are whispers in Chicago
that the Farmers National Grain
Corporation, a Government
agency, sold a lot of wheat in
the last few days; and no one
can find an explanation, other
than the possibility the break
will stimulate curtailment of
paintings in the spring wheat
area.
March rail reports will show
some sweeping gains compared
with a year ago. New York
Central is acting better in antici'
patton that the pressure from its
refinancing plan will be off in
two weeks.
Delaware & Hudson has sub
scribed to $6,000,000 of the
Central bonds, convertible into
10000 shares of common. Added
to the 495,000 shares it already
owns, this makes 645 900 shares
against its own capitalization of
$4,000 shares. Buying of General
Motors looks confident. Strength
in the U. S. Rubber issues is
attributed to activity of the
du Pont interests.
Some buying in the tire shares
is attributed to London.
The BritiShers are hopeful
over the prospects of getting pro-
duction curtailment soon.
Westinghouse is understood to
have been in the black in March.
Simmons Company net this year
is being estimated at $1.75 a
share. Statisticians are forecast
ing car loadings of 100000 cars
by this fall with the total for
the year of 32,325,000 cars, or
lis per cent over last year.

end and took the oath Of a
benedict at that time.
Bishop Cannon started his tes-
timony as his own witness pretty
calmly yesterday, but District
Attorney Leslie C. Garnett may
get the clergyman's goat with one
of his innocent tactics.
Mr.. Garnett was recently pre-
sented with new gadget which
resembles a fountain pen, but is
bright red in color and is a COM
bination bottle opener, corkscrew,
and other convivial conveniences.
May Lose His POise
He has been nonchalantly whirl-
ing the thing about in his hands
during the trial-sometimes as
sembling it for it's proper func-
tionS and then reassembling it
for carrying purposes.
If the bishop sees the thing, it
is calculated to cause him to lose
his poise, for, it is said, the
churchman has referred to cork
screws and mint patches as i'm
plements of the evil one, and he
flies into a fury when such things
are even mentioned to him, to say
nothing of having a corkscrew
manipulated under his nose.
That other Cannon witness who
testified the other day that he
had been raised to believe that
the gates of Heaven were opened
only to Democrats and MethodiStS,
amused the spectators.
OF course John Wilson and
Roger Robb were too considerate
of the witness feelings, he was
clergyman, to call him to account
for falling from grace in 1928,
when he was fighting AL Smith.

CLOTH MARKET

NEW YORK, April 20 QN.S.).
Once again the coarse yarn cloths

business at about the same rate as
in recent quiet sessions, although
throughout the primary trade quota
tions were we'll maintained in prac-
tically every instance.
Opportunities which had previously
presented themselves to cover at con-
of last week remained available. The
day found a number among buyers
and sellers prepared for brisker
trading market.
They came to such conclusion on
the basis of reviving interest during
Thursday. 1t failed to materialize and
encouraged those who like to plan
purchases when the outlook is be-
ginning to appear better to put off
laying down new commitments.

An Honest Gal NOW
Old Lady Racing Game
Let Us Keep Her So

NEW YORK, April 20.-With
o stroke Of the pen yesterday,
Gov. Herbert H. Lehman made
horse racing in New York State
an honest woman. 1t now re-
mains to be seen if the people
who run horse racing in New
York State can keep it that
way.
Under the provisions of the
Crawford -Breitenbach bill, now
law, we will have what is
called an open betting ring
when the metropolitan racing
season opens at the Jamaica
track tomorrow afternoon.
An open betting ring means
cash betting. It means that
you can walk up to any book
maker in the ring, hand him
the money you wish to bet on
the horse your fancy Cor tout)
dictates, get a ticket, and If
the horse wins, come back i'm
mediately after the race and
collect.
This system Of wagering has
90 many advantages over the
one it displaces-the Socalled
oral system-that I would not
even attempt to discuss them
all in a single column.
But it's basic advantage is
that it gives the player some
thing more nearly approaching
an even break.
House Gets It
So long as there is gamoling
OF any nature, from a two-bit
crap game to the ''big board"
in wall Street, the house will
always have the better Of the
player. The point is not to
allow this advantage to become
too great. Open betting is a
step in that direction, because
it will make competition, and
competition is also the life Of
trading in your good money
for a good thing.
My friends, the bookmakers-
and many of them are my
friends, I am glad to say-will
tell you, with tears in their
eyes, that we have not been
having a syndicate book on
the races at the New York
tracks these past few years.
A syndicate book means the
same price on a horse in all
books, which also means that
the bookmaker can give the
player exactly what he chooses
to give him-and no money!
But the bookmaker was not
the only guilty one. Not by
any means. Perhaps not even
the one primarily at fault. The
racing officials and jockey club
officials let him get away with
it. They said because of the
law their hands were tied. And
what they let the bookies get
away with on the line wasn't
a patch on what they let
trainers and jockeys get away
with on the track.
Few Officials Care
So far as I am concerned in
my fifteen years Of following
horse racing around New York.
I haven't come into contact with
more than two or three racing

purpose, but neither of them pro
vided a means of making neces
sary funds available.
The new bill authorizes the
insurance of an additional 1,OOC
million dollars in bonds to carry
out the provisions of the Home
Owners Loan Act.
These bonds, bearing 3H pei
cent interest, would be exchanged
for long-term 6 per cent first
mortgages covering up to IS per
cent of the construction cost OF
70 per cent of the combined value
of the dwelling and real estate on
which it is built.
Capitol Hill was center of in

Water rates will also be re-
duced approximately so per cent
through operation of the bill
which reduces the charge by Is
per cent and increases the mini.
mum meterage sufficiently to
amount to approximately another
Is per cent reduction in the total
rate.
But the Senate will iron out
the little matter of $1,335, ,705
which the House struck from the
lump sums appropriation on
grounds that the District owes
the Federal Government that sum
as reimbursement for PWA al
lotments.
In the first place, there was no
understanding with Public Works
Administrator Ickes that any part
Of the money was to be repaid,
District officials say.
The sum of $1,759,509 was al
loted for sewer work as an out
right grant and there were no
strings tied to it, according to
Major Gotwals, Engineer Commis
sioner.
Moreover, the officials say. they
could not have accepted the allot
ment if it stipulated repayment,
without first having obtained per
mission of Congress.
Eight realtors, prominent in at
fairs of the National Association
of Real Estate Boards, have been
asked to serve as members of the
Code Authority for the Brokerage
Industry, it was announced yes
terday by Herbert U. Nelson, and
their acceptances or refusals are
expected to be available today.
Some people have all the luck
and Robert D. Graham, Fairfax
real estate operator, seems to have
more than his share.
While other operators are tax

q new spring suit, Mr.. Graham
already sporting a new suit, spends
his time pleasantly planning the
Fairfax Hunt horse show.
If a horse show at Sunset Hills

ophy.
The public will see the pic
turesque country and determine
it's desirability without pressure
and the demand, a natural one
will take care of itself.
