Kyne Will Fight
Rule Against Pass

SAN MATEO, Calf, March %.
U.P)-William P. Kyne, manager of
the Bay Meadows track, indicated
today that he would go to court, if
necessary, to win the right to issue
passes promiscuously for admission
to his spring meeting.
In defying the state racing COM
mission, which ordered him to
charge admissions at the gate to
everybody except the working press,
Kyne took a course which he con-
sidered the best for his stockholders
and the racing public. He insists
he cannot operate profitably with
out extending pass privileges wide
ly among track following accus-
toned to free admissions.

Upset By Smashing Win Over

NEW YORK. March 2s.-veteran
James j. Braddock stood today as
a glorified contender in the topsy-
tiIrvy heavyweight throneroom after
his amazing conquest of highly tout
ed Art Lasky last night-a smash
ing upset victory that topped Brad
docks nine-month march back
from pugilism's boneyard.
The last of the great Irish heavy
weights, who only a year ago was
longshoreman, barely earning
meat and potatoes for his wife and
three kids after seven futile years
OF ring warfare, still heard the
thunder of 1000 frerzied voices
pounding in his ears as he went
cunning for a tilt with Max Schmel-
ing.
Schmeling. who participated in
the current renaissance in the fight
game, is the lone barrier between
Braddock and a crack at Make
Baer's title now that Primo Camera
has deserted Madison Square gar
den and signed to fight Joe Louis
for the Twentieth Century club.
Beats Handicaps
And Schmeling will meet plenty
Of trouble in the 28-year-old New
Jersey scrapper whose driving fists
gave Lasky the worst beating of his
five year career, and won the un-
animous l5-round decision. Handi-
capped by age and weight, and a
to ! underdog in the betting,
Braddock Dashed and battered the
Jewish Californian until the 10,143
paying customers wondered what
kept him on his feet.
Braddock, one of the hardest
punchers in the ring. rocked and
staggered Lasky SO often that the
westerner never attained the form
shown in previous bouts.
Lasky outweighed Jimmy 1877
pounds to 1922. and is three years
younger; but Art won only four
rounds against II for his rejuven-
ated opponent. One of these, the
fifth, was awarded Laslsy by Ref
cree Arthur Donovan because of
Braddock's foul. There were no
knockdowns; but both were bleed
ing at the end-Lasly from his nose
and a cash in his left brow, and
Braddock from a ripped cheek.
The bell saved Lasky in the sixth
after he had been sent reeling by
barrage of smashing long-range
rights and lefts to the head. In the
l1th, Art again was out on his feet,
but Braddock was too tired then to
put him away.

The Great Pyramid

The Great Pyramid was erected In
the reign Of Khufu or Cheops, prob
ably about $500 b. C. Its base
covers Is acres. 1t is 451 feet high
tits original height having been 4S1
feet). The length OF each side
is 746 feet. II has been estimated
to contain about 100000 stone
blocks Of an average volume 40 cubic
feet, and to weigh over 100000 tons.
According to Herodotus, It must have
taken 100000 men 20 years to con-
struct. This pyramid was built with
a sepulchral chamber to contain the
body OF Cheops; it is probable that
this body, with the royal jewels, was
stolen centuries ago. The stone for
the pyramids was taken from the Mo-
kattam and Tura hills on the opposite
side Of the Nile, and traces of the
road by which 1t was conveyed are
still visible. The methods Of construc-
ton and reasons for its location can
only be conjectured. According to
some writer's, its purpose was to give
employment to the numerous captives
as much as to immortalize the ruler.

Writes Letter Seeking Aid For
County Patients In Hospitals

A letter asking that disqualification
of Garrett county patients would re-
ceive definite aid from the State was
written yesterday by DR.. f. C. Peck,
Health Officer, to Walter N. Kirkman,
State Purchasing Agent, and Miss
Anita J. Faatz, supervisor of social
welfare of the Board of State Aid and
Charities, whose offices are located in
Baltimore.
A portion of the letter of DR.. Peck
reads as follows:
$50 far as we can make out from
the study of the previous budget and
from the statement of the superinten-
dent of Memorial Hospital, who re-
Gently appeared before our Board of
County Commissioners, there is a to-
tai of $4,000 appropriated by the
State for hospitals in Allegany coun-
ty, but none of that money is def
nitely earmarked for Garrett county.
"The Memorial took care of a con-
siderable number of free patients
from Garrett county last year, but the
record of the Allegany Hospital and
Miners Hospital, as recently reported
by the superintendent to me, show
only fourteen patients in the Allegany
and Is in the Miners from this coun-
ty in the last year who did not paw
for their own care. Some of these were
paid for by the County Commissioners
and some were free cases. 1t seems
only right that something approx
mating per capita share of this $780,
900 should be designated in some way
for the use of poor persons from Gar
rett county. 1t is probably so under
stood by the State authorities, but
Mr. Weiss, the present superintendent
of the Memorial Hospital, states that
no funds are so designated
"As you know, Garrett county is
not in position to maintain its own
hospital, and yet the estimate is made
and was submitted to Mr.. Weiss, that
one out of every twelve inhabitants
is at some time hospital case. Of
course not all of these would be pau
per cases, but we do have a very great
many who cannot pay and the county
is simply unable to meet the expense"

Joker Postage Stamp

Niue, one of the islands of the South
Seas and a dependency of New Zea-
land, for many years used the stamps
of that commonwealth overprinted
with the name "Niue" and value ex-
pressed in native words using Eng
llsh letters. In 1908, when a new sup
ply of stamps arrived, one in partlcu-
lar seemed to cause an unusual
amount of merrlment on the part of
the natives. An inquiry revealed that
the stamp was overprinted "Tahae
Silent" instead of "Tehae Silent"
which does not seem provocative Of
much mirth until it was learned that
the former means "Thief Shilling" and
not "One Shilling" as intended by the
printers.
