PERRY DISAPPEARS. JAS MOVIE MOCULS. OFFER CONTRACTS
English Net Star Believed on Way to New
 York City

Hollywood, April 1'6-(UP)- Fred Perry. British tennis cham pion, was believed to have turned down offers of a movie contract today when it was learned he had checked out of his hotel and was on his way to New York.
 Officials at R K O Studios an- nounced yesterday that Perry was read yto sign, having passed movie tests successfully. But apparently the tall, handsome, ranking tennis player of the world changed his mind at the last moment.
 Perry's movement prior to his reported nasty departure for the East were secret. Hotel attendants said they did not know where he had gone and his film colony friends could not be reached.
 There were reports that Mary Lawon, English actress and Per- rvs fiancee, had changed his mind. Dispatches from London indicated she had broken their engagement because she wanted to live in England and Perry wanted to live in Hollywood.
 The tennis player has been plagued for months with reports of movie contracts, professional tennis contracts and other mat ters.
 Not long after he arrived here from Australia he denied a report that Bill O'Brien, tennis promoter, had persuaded him to sign a pro- fessional contract.

Pitter Pat is one of the seven horses which William Woodward nominated for the Kentucky Derby of May 4.
 A son of Pennant, out of Ruth Law, a daughter of Broomstick, Pitter Pat represents the Domino Broomstick cross which proved so potent in the blood of Equipoise.
 From appearances, however, Pitt ter Pat will prove no second "Chocolate Soldier" and may be little better than a running mate for one of the. other Belair stud breeds-probably Omaha, Gallant Prince, or Vicaress.
 After nabbing a second in his first start, Pitter Pat prevailed in the Flash Stakes.
 Charles Sun and others whipped Pitter Pat in the Grand Union Hotel Stakes, but the Woodward juvenile was away poorly, and Chance Sun proved mud lark. Pitter Pat was second to Bird Flower in the Albany Handicap, also run in mud. Thereafter, Pitter Pat engaged in eastern stakes, but got nothing. Shipped to California with Faireno an d others, he took q second to Bluebeard. spotting the Coe horse 12 pounds.
 Pitter Pat gave Ted Clark five pounds in the Santa Margarita handicap. The track was muddy, a medium which Pitter Pat seems to like, but Ted Clark, besides be. ing a sprinter is a good mudder, and he beat the eastern horse by l half length.
 In subsequent races, Pitter Pat did little. often appearing to sulk. As Derby contender Pitter Pat seems in the second class. But should the field turn out to be mediocre, he might we'll turn into a useful running partner for his more capable stablemates.

V
 New York, April 16-(UP)- Wanted: One thousand sportsmen with $1,000 each to attend the most exclusive worlds heavyweight championship fight in history.
 The fight to be staged on a transatlantic liner somewhere in mid-ocean. The crown-the 1000 sportsmen with the $1,000 and d flair for the bizarre. An even thousand spectators. No more, no less. No reporters. No politicians. No taxes. No boxing commission demands. Only the champion and the challenger, in ring pitched in the grand ballroom, fighting 1t out 1500 miles off shore.
 Absurd? Maybe. But the pro- moter I 4xnow doesn't think so. A thousand at thousand is one cool million. He's signed half of the thousand at one thousand per, and he's touched only the east. He's sure that somewhere between here and the coast are that many more gentlemen of wealth who would pay that sort of money to attend his fantastic performance. Promising:
 In a few days, if all goes well, he expects to offer Ancil Hoffman manager of Max Baer, a guaranteo of $300,0O0 for the champions services. If MT Hoffman does not like that sum, he will be offered a percentage on the million dollars radio rights and picture rights. The radio and movie right should com mand a sizeabIe fortune. Henry Ford paid $100,000 for the world series broadcasting rights last year, and he was competing with hundreds of thousands of specta- tors, the press, and more ghost writers than there are in heaven. The promoter plans to offer the hallenger-probably Schmeling-a fiat $100.000. This counting the ra- dio and camera rights will leave him approximately sSO0,000 for operating expenses-boat rental. entertainment. publicity, and all the rest. Only poor management could prevent his walking off the boat at the finish with at least $300,000.
 Tried Before
 This scheme is not entirely new. It was offered MT Joe (Heil Hitler) Jacobs when he had the champion of the world in Max Schmeling. And MT Jacobs became so interest ed that he entered into a series of long conferences with the promoter and only backed down when the promoter refused to increase his cash advance from $80,000 to $100,O00.
 'If the guy had raised the ad- vance to an even hundred grand" MT Jacobs told us today, "Schmel- ing would have been the first champ. to defend his title out on top of an ocean. was all for 1t. It

RHODE ISLANDS
 TRACK BOSS TOUCH ON LICENSE GRANTS
Tightening Up to Weed Out Undesirables - New
 Board Named

Providence, R. l., April 18th Licenses to jockeys, trainers and their agents will be subjected to a very close scrutiny this summer at Narragansett Park, according to plans completed last night by Rac- ing Commissioner James c. Thorn ton.
 A state license board of. five members will sit to examine all ap- plications and applicants, and lic- enses will be granted only to those thoroughly competent in their field and of goood character. The board personnel will consist of a state superintendent in charge of lic- enses, a state superintendent of in- vestigations, a track steward and two of the turf's leading trainers, the latter to be a1ternated with others from time to time.
 Too Easy
 Last season licenses were grant ed upon presentation of the fee and two endorsing signatures from trainers, but the method is too haphazard to suit Commissioner Thornton. This year jockeys. train- CTS and agents of established repu- tation will experience no difficulty in securing licenses, but those of cloudy repute and newcomers to the sport, will be put through a rigorous examination. The pres ence of an experienced Steward and the two horsemen will effectu- ally block any trickery by undesir- ables in the way of securing lic- enses.
 Cheap Enough
 The fees are set as follows: jockeys $10: apprentices $2; train CTS $10; and agents $1. For the in- formation of racing fans, agents are those authorized by jockeys to make their riding engagements and by stables to sign the entry blanks for their horses.
 Not wishing to impose Rhode Islands judkments on other states, Commissioner Thornton states that any applications refused or tabled, vii be filed and kept strictly with in the confines of his own desk. Thus leaving other states free to make their own decisions.

ROSS MEDICATION OF LIGHTWEIGHT
 TITLE WAS SHOCK
Ambers-CanzOneri May Meet-M. s. c., HOff-
 man ''Pass the Buck"
BY LAWTON CARVER Limited Press Staff COrresDOndentl

New York, April 16 - (UP) - Barney Ross's request that he be allowed to shed the world light weight championship and meet Jimmy McLarnin for the weltef5 title, and Max Baer's insistanee that a substitute be named fot James J. Braddock as challenges. for the heavyweight title, today brought the New York Boxing Commission into it's most import ant meeting in a decade.
 Ross's desertion of the 135- pound throne. third such abdi- cation in the history of the divis-s ion = in itself was enough to send the three commissioners into a whirlwind of activity.
 Their problem was intensified by Ancil Hoffman, discontented man. ager of Baer who is trying to find a way out of the Braddock fight, and Irascible Madison Square. Garden officials determined to hold him to his contract
 Tony Gets Chance
 To clear up the lightweight sit uation the commission has an nounced that Lou Ambers, estab- lished as outstanding challenger, will be tossed against Tony Cam zoneri, from who ross won the title in June, 1883, and possibly others. Madison Square Garden already has started plans for the Canzoneri match. tentatively set for May 10.
 Ross's decision to quit as 135-s
 I.s. nIs ,t,1o kee f1fa scheduled defense for the 20ths Century Sporting Club headed by Mike Jacobs, but this causes Ja- cobs no great grief.
 No sooner had Ross announced that he would follow Jack Nc Auliffe of the late sos and Benny Leonard of a few years ago into undefeated retirement, than Ja- cobs signed him for his third fight with Jimmy McLarnin, with the welterweight title tstake and the bout to be held at the Polo Grounds May 28 - if the commis- sion will agree to that date.
 Back Again
 The heavyweight muddle, was definitely in the commissions lap. dropped there by Hoffman and Garden officials who could not agree on Baer's title defense in June.
 They went into a secret session yesterday but decnned to reveal what was brewing, further than to indicate that Hoffman was trying to wiggle out out of the Braddock match because he didn't believe It would draw a worthwhile gate. The contracts specify that the commission shall settle any dispute. over the challenger.

GOOD GOLF
By BILL KLISH

The day of. the wee caddy- boy is about over as nowa- days the bags are heavier with matched clubs and other gadgcts. Some even carry small bamboo rakes to smooth bunker sands after the play. An of this has in- creased the helf of bag-car- riers. I believe that the cad- dies of today represent a more intelligent class than the crew of yore. They know more about golf strokes and the range of various clubs in different hands. They are familiar with the plan of this hole or that, and can give valuable advice concerning the placement of shots. Class A caddies represent a pro- fcssiOn that is n worthy one. he knows that he is impor. tant i'm play and he glories in tho thought. For the most part the understanding play CT recognizes the worth of a good boy, likes to encourage him, and does so at every opportunity.
 It is not so much the idea of encouraging a boy to be eventually a model caddy. That is all very well. But let the thought rather be- "What sort of manhood will be this boy's?" The lads who carry bags. are of the age when character Is formed. Traits for good or bad are in the making. They will not al. ways he caddics. This Is we'll to remember.

A WOman:S Viewpoint
BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON

ID EPORTS regarding the unhap-
N piness TO be found in Ameri-
can homes are exaggerated. At
least, that is my guess.
About the first thing divorced
people do is remarry, so it might
be wise for us TO take with a grain
Of salt all those stories about we'd
ded couples who would like to be
single again. They may not be n
tirely satisfied with their particu-
lar situation. for when are mortals
ever satisfied? But not many would
change places for long with those
who live in what is known as single
b~leSsedneSs.
The delights of the single life
have been ~overdrawn of late. We
are told, for instance, that women
on their own. who can do as they
please, feel more fortunate than
their more b~edraggled married sis
tiers with babies ~sniveling at their
heels, and that bachelors are wont
to murmur TIE Deums of gratitude
over their liberty.
Yet the only happy bachelors I
vel knew we're not really unen-
numbered by females. They sup
ported relatives or common-law
wives, or contributed money 10 a
procession of light O. loves. Those
who did not do so were usually
grouches. who finally became con-
frmed d~vSDepticS and 81 were not
fit to live with anyway.

You al also count on the fin
gers Of one hand all the women
who sing hallelujahs over their
freedom from domestic responsible
ity. Most of the unmarried girls,
being sensible and sometimes INTEL
ligent, complain very little and are
anxious to get the best out Of what
they have. but a rare specimen in
deed is the maiden getting along
in years who isn't ready to dash
to the altar when an eligible man
asks her.
None of US can escape love. And
marriage. while imperfect perhaps,
is the best method We have found
to get the utmost happiness out Of
love.
Too ardent praise for the single
life is dangerous and false propa-
ganda. Although economic depres-
sion has forced it upon thousands,
although it is tolerated with cour-
age, it is still an incomplete exist
ence for most of us.

MOT until a dreamy. far-sighted

a little more than 100 years ago,
did the world think Of combining

The man who revolutionized the
educational system of the world was
Johann Heinrich Pestalozzi.
Founder of schools for the poor,
originator of a new type of public
education, this famous Swiss origi-
mated the plan of organizing chill

time inStructing them in the in
