Dilatory tactics of District
forces in cleaning snow from
city streets provoked Represen-
tative Virginia Jenckes to ask
for consideration of her bill to
force property owners to clean
snow from sidewalks, at a re-
cent meeting of the House
District Committee.
Explaining the features Of
the bill, Representative JencEes
asked that it be referred to
subcommittee.
Representative Loring Black
Of New York, one of the most
facetious members of the COM
mittee. said:
"This may be a good bill.
But / do not think it should
be sent to subcommittee
which is headed by South
erner for consideration.
"a SOutherner wouldn't know
what snow was all about.
"He might think it was cot
ton and try to sell it,"
Repeal has sadly affected
one of the sororities on the
George Washington University
campus.
The girls were having a
dance the other eve at a
house and invited professor
or two with their wives to act
as chaperones.
In the midst of the dance
q professor, whose wife is a
member of the sorority. rushed
toward the orchestra frantlcally
waving his arms and announc-
ing:
"The dance must not go on"
Three of the sorority sisters
had been discovered on the Sec

The idea that oculists sell
glasses to improve vision is er-

recent court testimony.
Attorney Eddie Buckley, inter
ested in the case of a defend
ant charged with driving while
drunk, was questioning a wit
ness and endeavoring to esta5-
1ish the fact that the witness
had poor eye-sight.
Said Eddie:
"YOu wear glasses and isn't
It true that you wear them be-
cause of poor eye-sight?"
The witness, a woman, haught-
fly replied:
"That is not true. My eye
sight is perfect.
GAS a matter of fact it is so
good that I have to wear glasses
to cut down on my visiOn!"
Col. Charles Lindbergh was
in conference with Secretary
of War Dern the other day
and outside the office a corps

to snap the ColonePs picture.
A few of the picture takers
were grouped down the hall to
prevent Colonel Lindbergh
from slipping out through a
side door, while the vast ma.
jority of photographers waited
by the main entrance.
A flash lamp down the hall
suddenly went off among the

The others, who had been
standing by the main door,
gathered cameras, bulbs, tri-

and dashed down wildly.

illinois Commission Insists Title
Will Not Be involved
Friday Night

Chicago, Dec. 2S.-(A)-Max Baer
will risk his box office power. and to
some extent, his world heavyweight
championship, In q four-round bout
with King LeNnsky at the Chicago
stadium Friday night.
The Illinois state athletic commits
sion insists that the champions title
will not be involved-that the affair
will be an exhibition-but a knockout
victory for the Kngfish would give
him . claim difficult for anyone to
laugh off. There will be no Official
decision, but in the event both wal.
lopers are on their feet at the finish,
= poll Of sportwriters at the ringside
will be taken.
Both Baer and Levinsky apparently
intend to make . fight Of 1t, for they
will use six-ounce gloves, instead Of
eight-ounce ones. Also. they will
use about half the usual yardage Of
tape and gauze in bandaging their
hands, which indicates It will be
more Of fight than an exhibition.
The commission has ruled that In
case Of Z knockdown, the regulation
maneuyers, such as sflooing the boxer
on his feet to the farthest neutral
corner, will be observed. However, the
referee will not count. The counting
will be done by the timekeepr, and
II the man on the canvas fails to re-
gain his feet at the count Of ''ten,'
the referee will retire from the ring
without saying anything.
