- I'm the pool room veruacular,
$4.40 may get you 500, If you
are dealing in Rose Bowl
tickets of the right location.
With approximately $4,000 seats
available and more than 100000 per-
sons clamoring to see the foot ball
game here New Year day between
Stanford and Southern Methodist, the
scalpers are riding high.
One hundred dollars is top price,
of course, but a prominent Hollywood
motion picture producer paid it with
a smile. He bought only two tickets.
Most tickets are being scalped, how
ever, at from $50 to $50 piece for
tbs best Of the $4.40 variety with those
back of the goal posts around $40
each.

Brisk Scalping Business.

WHILE every effort Is being made
w to keep down scalping, the ducat
bootleggers report a brisk business.
Actual profit to each individual in
volved is, however, small. The mid
dleman is cutting into the racket.
One Illicit ticket dealer told Of pay
ing an original purchaser $A each
for eight. They burned his jeans for
day until the Christmas shopping
rush forced him to unload for q $50
profit to a "middleman," who was
peddling the Autographed pasteboards
to a prominent motion picture actor.
A check-up showed the actor paid
S25 each for the tickets. Texans Of
Southern California also have been
searching out the bootleggers with
heavy bank rolls.
At the present trend it was expected
that prices would be out of reach by
the morning of the game, with few
tickets available at any figure.

Texas Gets 1000 Tickets.

OF THE $4,000 tickets, 1000 were
~ sent to Southern Methodist for
distribution in Texas. While this SUM
proved entirely inadequate, 1t was dou-

ever requested before.
Every effort Is being made to fortify
against gate crashing. The fences

SESSIONS TOPIC
Various Groups Meeting in
New York Also Discuss
Payment of Athletes.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
N YEW YORK, December 26.-Slx
M organizations directly or indi-
VI rectly connected with college
l. athletics meet here this week
to discuss foot ball rules, spectator
behavior, subsidizing and recruiting.
Although the possibility of action to
alter conditions was seen, the groups
efforts in the last few years have
found little success.
The annual luncheon of the sports
manship brotherhood today starts the
ball rolling.
Other meetings, getting under way
today and tomorrow, are those of the
National Collegiate Athletic Associa-
ton, the Foot Ball Coaches Associa-
ton, the Physical Education Associa-
ton, the Student Health Association
and the Track Coaches Association.
The last five will hold joint meet
ing tomorrow in honor of the thirt1eth
anniversary of the N. c. A. A.
Want Goal Posts Moved.
WHILE the coaches are expected to
w devote most of their time to dis
cussing the technical side of their
trade, there will be the usual agitation
for changes in the rules. Many OF
them still favor returning the goal
posts to the goal lines, although the
Rules Committee has not been able
to agree.
Dan McDugan, former Vanderbilt
pilot, proposes three alterations. He
says the rules should set standard
penalty for interference with pass re-
ceivers, rather than giving the ball to
the offended team at the point where
interference occurs; they should pro-
vide penalty for roughing the pass
er, Just as a kicker is protected; ana
reduce the penalty on the offensive
team when a forward pass strikes an
ineligible player.
Spectators on Spot.
"THE spectator problem
= caused gray hairs to sprout On
the head of more than one gridiron
official during the last season, not to
mention the dented skulls of some
who took part in goal-poSt battles
Is the topic of discussion for the
craftsmanship brotherhood.
The N. C. A. A. will take up the
same question, especially that angle
Of 1t which concerns excessive drink
ing by spectators, at its round table
discussions, conducted by Dean E. L.
Mercer of Pennsylvania.
This organization, which last year
declared ''unjustifiable" any none
tary subsidies for athletes, is expected
to give serious consideration to the
action of the Southeastern Confer
ence in letting down the bars against
granting scholarships to athletes.

Three veal chops a day is the
tasty diet enjoyed by "Teddy,"
half angora and half plain cat.
Even such food is not half good
enough for him thinks his mis-
tress, Miss Mae Holland. OF
course he has his salmon, too.
We can vouch personally for
Teddy" He visited us here in
the office, where he was photo.
graphed. Teddy" is as pretty
a cat as you would want to see.
He is in the pink of condition
with a bright carrot-colored
coat, the result of proper food
and a lot of brushing.
Miss Holland isn't interested
in giving Teddy to just anybody.
Unless she can be assured that
he will have a good home and
that he will receive the good
care he has always enjoyed, his
owner is not interested. She
feels she can no longer keep
him in an apartment, where she
also has a French Poodle. iSe
cat and dog, however, are the
best of friends.

but not in the usual sense. His
owner found him in the woods
several years ago. If you are

With 80 cents in his pocket to
forestall any police charge OF
vagrancy, David Carliner, 16-year-
old Mckinley Tech High School
senior, nicknamed "Red" be-
cause of his alleged Communist
activities, today risked expulsion
for the second time by passing
out pamphlets defending partici-
patton, by the National Student
League, in the football riots two
months ago.
Distribution was stopped a min
ute before 8 a. m, as he was
preparing to go to his English
class, by youth whom he could
not identify, who hit him in the
face and scattered the pamphlets
to the winds. Three other dis.
tributors were not moleSted.
Summoned to Office
Carliner was summoned imme-
diately to Principal Frank c.
Daniels office, then told to go
to his class until further notice.
Principal Daniel said:
eff this warrants any dras-
tic action, it will certainly be
taken. 1t may be nothing; on
the other hand, it may be
serious"
He will confer with school
board officials. He said there
are but two members of the
student league in the school,
Carliner and another. Carliner,
Clarendon (Va. youth, said
there are at least 10.
The pamphlets defended the
leagues fight for continuation of
high school football, for non
censored student newspaper and
for a free four-year city college in
Washington.

It was printed in answer to an
editorial in Tech Life, school pub
lication which assailed recent
charges in magazine the football
riots were led by the Communistic
N. S. L., and declared but two
members of the league attend
school. Others who have shown
interest, the editorial stated, were
enticed to meetings by promises of
refreshments.
Carliner was "excused' from
classes for a period following the
riots, then reinstated. He said

SEN. LOGAN BILL
AIDS WORKERS

Senator M. M. Logan CD of
Kentucky, a member of the Sen
ate Civil Service Committee, to.
day had paved the way for bring
ing all Federal employees into the
Civil Service with the introduc,
ton of bill for that purpose.
The measure, which would re-
quire only that those Government
employees who do not have a Civil
Service status now, pass a non.
competitive examination in order
to gain such status, is now pend
ing before the Senate Civil Ser.
vice Committee.
It is understood on high au-
thority that such a measure has
been informally approved by Pres
ident Roosevelt, and that Admin
istration forces will be requested
to give their support to eXpedit-
ing passage of the proposition.
Under the Logan bill all non
civil service employees in the Gov
ernment service would be blank
eted into the Civil Service upon
passing the non-competitive eX-
animation. The only exemptions
would be positions which are
filled by presidential order with
the confirmation of the President
and other positions which would
be specifically exempted in an
executive order. The latter would
be but a few.
The National Federation of
Federal Employees has issued a
pamphlet, showing tangible evil
dence of the Overwhelming SEN
timent of newspapers throughout
the country in behalf of the
merit system as opposed to the
spoils plan of appointment to the
Federal service, now so largely
employed"
The pamphlets have been
placed before President Roosevelt,
members of the House and Sen
ate, Civil Service committees, and
other high officials of the Gov
ernment.

386 ASK BOTTLE
LIQUOR LICENSE

Applications for license to sell
liquor by the bottle already have
exceeded the quota allowed for
last year, it was announced today
by the Alcoholic Beverage Control
Board.
The limitation was made last
year after $50 Glass A retail Ii.
censes were granted, this action
being taken in November so that
persons from other cities would
not be able to open temporary
liquor shops here for the holiday
season. The board to date has
received 1856 applications for this
class of license.
Members of the board stated
applicants should file their re-
quests before January IS, so the
liquor unit can issue the license
before February /, the date on
which the 1884 permits expire.
The number of applications
received by the board for all
classes of liquor license is 1,577.
There are 1878 licenses in ef-
feet.
A total of $1,297,148.93 was COL
lected by the board in license
fees, taxes and fines for VIOLA
tions in 1884. There were 43
licenses revoked for violations,
the major offense being sale of
liquor on Sunday.

|NFEW DAYS
Survey, Overdue, Was to Have
Been Used to Determine
MLump Sum" Amount

Delayed almost two weeks, the
Treasury Department District tax
survey, ordered by President
Roosevelt, is expected to be trans
mitted to the White House in a
few days, with the recommends
ton that further study oe made
of the problem.
The survey was ordered origi-
nally as 4 basis for the Presidents
recommendation for the Federal
lump sum contribution to the Dis
trict to be contained in the esti-
mates for 1886, which went to
the Capitol last week.
President Roosevelt on Decem-
Der IL, instructed the Bureau of
Research and Statistics of the
Treasury Department, which is
headed by DR.. George C. Haas,
to make a survey of tax con-
ditions in other cities comparable
to Washington.
Without this information, how.
ever, the District estimates went
to Congress carrying the Budget
Bureaus recommendation of
$5,700,000 lump sum contribution,
the same figure which is carried
in the current appropriation.
The District commissioners had
requested contribution Of
$8,317,500.
Although this survey is now de-
layed, when it is delivered to the
President, he probably will trans
nit his recommendation to the
Congressional committee consider
ing the appropriation bill,

BUSINESS, CIVIC
HEADS BATTLE
INCOME TAX
Extra Levy For Capital Would
Retard Recovery, Claim;
Committee Is Formed

Fighting to keep District resi-
dents from having an additional
income tax saddled upon them,
a group of prominent business
and civic leaders have organized
a committee to lead the campaign
against the imposition of such a
tax.
James G.. Yaden, president Of
the Federation of Citizens Associa-
tions, one of the first civic groups
to go on record as opposing the
tax as unfair and unjustified,
is chairman of this citizens com.
mittee.
Accept Membership
Representatives of business and
professional groups and Govern
ment workers, have accepted mem
berShip.
Among the representative citi.
zenS who will serve are W. C. Mil.
Ter, past president of the Washing

to become members.
Exports AssaiI Tax
The income tax measure, which
has been advocated by Senator
William H. King CD of Utah,
chairman of the Senate District
Committee, has been assailed by
experts as unjustified.
Such a tax, it was pointed out,
would exempt holders of intangi-
BILE personal property assessed at
four hundred million dollars from
payment of tax, and would saddle
additional taxes on 10000 wage
earnerS and businessmen.
This tax would take approx
mately $3,O0O,O0O a year from
businessmen, it was said, retard-
ing the recovery program.

PRISONER ASKS
FREEDOM

Sentenced to prison terms total
ing 10 years for turning in five
false fire alarms in 1929, Walter
Monroe, colored. has instituted
habeas corpus proceedings for his
release, alleging that he was de-
prived of his constitutional rights
at the trial.
Monroe. a feeble.minded person,
once incarcerated at the Home for
the Feeble Minded, was sentenced
on December 81, 1929, to serve 1870
days on each of five charges and
an additional 1870 days on each
charge if he defaulted in the pay
ment Of a 500 fine.
st. Elizabeths Hospital officials
reported he was not eligible for
admission to that institution as
he is classified as "phychotic" and
not actually insane. He is no
longer a juvenile and is not eligi-
BILE for commitment to the Ma
tional Training School.
Hearing on the habeas corpus
writ for his release has been set
for May %. Principally, his claim
is based on the alleged failure OF
Acting Police Court Judge r. E.
Mattingly to advise him OF his
right to a jury trial.
