Jo C key Club Announces Schedule of Racing
 Starting Sept. 2l

ST. LOUIS, Sept. 1-The Fair mount Jockey club will try this fall to regain the position it held in national racing before the decline that saw it abandon partly com pleted meet in despair last year.
 The club opened at nearby Col linsville, H., in 1925 under favor able conditions, with noted racing men in charge and splendid thor oughbreds competing in rich stakes By last year the track had become a mere question mark
 With decreased purses and ad- mission as free as the Illinois com mission would permit, it's racing has not profited.
 But, although the memory of last years premature closing is still poignant, General Manager Robert IS. Eddy, Jr., and his associates have decided to take a chance on the 25-day meet starting September I21.
 Our meeting will open just be- fore the American Legion conven- tion in St. Louis," Eddy said, "ano we feel this will help us consider ably"
 Eddy advances the change in the "breakage rule" as another reason for the promising fall outlook. The last Illinois legislature voted to permit the mutuels to break te the dime" instead of breaking te the penny" as formerly. This will increase the mutuel handle so the track will get 8 percent of all mon- ey wagered, instead of 6lz percent

ON HIGH-PAY JOBS
Move Follows Failure Of Attempt
for Senate Confirmation of All
Getting Over $4,000.

As a sequel to the unsuccessful eff
fort he made last week to require
Senate confirmation of all Govern
ment officials hereafter appointed at
$4,000 or more year, Senator Gore,
Democrat. of Oklahoma introduced a
new resolution yesterday. seeking data
on such positions. While this reso-
luton is confined to a request for in
formation as to the number of such
jobs, its introduction indicated the
movement to require confirmation has
not been abandoned.
The resolution, which went over for
future action, asks Controller Gen.
eral McCarl to submit to the Senate
a report showing the names and an
nual salaries of all persons who have
been appointed under any act Of Con-
gress at $4,000 or more a. year. He
asks also that the list show those who
are now required to be confirmed by
the Senate and those who do not have
to be confirmed
When the N. r. A. continuing reso-
luton was up last week, Gore sue
ceeded in having his amendment to
require confirmation of all such ap-
pointees attached to the resolution,
but the following day the Senate re-
versed its action and killed the
amendment.

CHEVY CHASE BUS
APPROVAL AWAITS
DOWNTOWN ROUTE
Utility Commission and
Company Engineers to
Act Tomorrow.
WHITEHURST WARNS
AGAINST BRIDGE DELAY
Roberts to Oppose 10-Cent Fare
Proposed for Express Buses.
To Inquire Into Paving.

Approval tomorrow by the Public
Utilities Commission of the Capital
Transit Co.'s proposal to abandon its
tracks on upper Connecticut avenue
and substitute bus service Is con-
tingent on the ability of commission
and company engineers to map out an
acceptable route for the buses
through downtown Washington.
Since conclusion of the public hear
ing on the company's petition late Fri
day, Traffic Director William A. Van
Duzer, F. A Ssger, chief engineer Of
the commission, and transit company
experts have been studying the
problem.
Spurred on by the necessity Of
making an immediate decision so as
not to hold up construction of the
new Calvert Street Bridge, which
would carry tracks serving Chevy
Chase, the commission has indicated
it will ask for a report on the matter
tomorrow morning
The noon hour is the deadline for
filing of additional arguments or facts
with the commission, which will meet
in the afternoon to reach a decision.
One Route Considered. --
At present the commission has be-
fore it only one route. which was pro-
posed by the company.
It calls for buses to travel south
on Connecticut avenue to Seventeenth
street, south to 1, east to Thirteenth,
south to E, east to Eleventh and south
to Pennsylvania avenue, looping back
along Pennsylvania avenue to Thir-
tenth street, north to H, west to Con-
necticut avenue, thence north on Con-
necticut avenue and Seventeenth stree
to K, west to Connecticut avenue and
north to Chevy Chase Circle.
The need for prompt action con-
corning the change was emphasized
yesterday by Capt. H. C. Whitehurst,
District highway engineer. who said
delay is likely to interfere seriously
with work on the bridge. The span is
expected to be completed october l,
which is about a month and q half
ahead of time. The north side prob
ably will be opened to west-bound
traffic around September Is.
Already troughs for the tracks and
the underground trolley have been
constructed for q short distance on
the span. but this work was stopped
about two weeks ago, when the pro-
posal to abondon the Connecticut ave-
nue. tracks was first put forward.
Contract Date Extended.
The original contract date for COM
pletion of the 750-foot span was Sep
TENDER IS. but because of the carpen-
ters strike last year and extra work
in laying foundations, the conStruc-
ton period was extended by some two
months.
Peoples Council William A. Roberts
said yesterday he will oppose the 10
cent fare proposed for the express
buses. Roberts pointed out that it
costs less to operate an express than
local service. He said he also in
tends to inquire into the distribution
Of the cost of paving where the tracks
now run, and other items.
