MAJOR STABLES
To RACE At
'GRAW.

HAvRE DE GRACE, Md. March
20.-Willis Sharpe Kilmer, proud
owner of Sun Beau, worlds largest
money winning thoroughbred;
Cornelius Vanderbilt Whitney;
Mrs. John Hay Whitney. Mrs.
ayne Whitney, Bradywine
Stable and Leslie E. Keiffer are
the latest sportsmen and sports
women to be allotted stalls for the
12-day's spring racing, beginning
April IS.
Among Mrs. Payne Whitney's
band will be Plat Eye and Sailor
Beware, two Kentucky Derby can
didates, which Trainer Bill Bren-
nan has quartered at Red Bank,
N. j., and which will be shipped
here for the purpose of striving
for the $500 Chesapeake on
Saturday, April 20.
Kentucky Derby Tryout
The Chesapeake is the East's
tryout for the Kentucky Derby on
May and promises to attract a
grand field, as the majority of
Americas leading three-year-oldS
are at present quartered in the
East.
Since Track Superintendent
James Ross threw open his course
to horsemen last Saturday, there
has been a steady flow of horse
vans and trains from all sections
of the country.
Among the most prominent
strings getting in were twenty-four
horses belonging to Samuel D.
Riddle, which are trained by
George Conway; and a like num-
ber belonging to Walter M. Jet
fords, which are looked after by
the aStute Preston M. Burch. Both
strings wintered at Berlin, down
on the Eastern Shore.
Seeks WOrkman'S Service
Among Burch'S charges is Com
monwealth, one of the outStand-
ing candidates for the Kentucky
Derby. Burch has taken second
call on Jockey Sonny Workman'S
services for the Derby as ne is
anxious to give his gelding every
possible aid in the Blue Grass
classic.
Workman, who won a stirring
victory last November at Bowie
astride Commonwealth, is eager
to ride Burch's charge, as he con-
siderS the gelding to have an ex-
cellent chance of winning Matt
Winn's mile and one quarter
feature.
Workman has won about every
important American stake, with
the exception of Derby; hence
his desire to get aboard Common
wealth, one that appears at this
writing to possess Derby timber.

TRAINING CAMP BRIEFS

ORLANDO, Fla, March 20.
The Dodgers found themselves
sitting supreme on top Of the
Grapefruit League today. Yes
terday's 9-8 victory over the
Tigers leaves them undefeated in
four starts. Frank Lamanske con-
tinues to impress with his work
on the mound, and seems to be
one of Stengel's best bets for the
coming pennant tuSSle.
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla, March
20.-The Yankees appeared for
practice today with one less
"worry-frown" showing on their
tanning faces. The reason is Lefty
Gomez. He flashed fine form
yesterday. Art Fletcher is in COM
mand of the team today in the
absence of Manager Mccarthy,
who left for Philly last night to at
tend the funeral of his mother.
SARASOTA, Fla, March 20.
The New York Giants take on
the Red Sox here today during
a one-day stop on another leg
of their long Northern jaunt.
They split with the Redlegs in
two encounters in Miami last
week. Carl Hubbell, he of the
sophisticated soupbone, is sched-
uled to worry the Sox for a few
innings today. Freddy Fitzsim-
mons will probably also draw a
few innings in which to labor.
NEW ORLEANS, March 90
The Cleveland indians held C g.
to-4 win over the New Orleans
PelicanS today after the Tribe
found its batting eyes in the third
inning Of the game yesterday and
pounded in five runs. Manager
Walter johnson was using Roy
Hughes at the shortstop post, as
Bill Knickerbocker, the regular
shortfielder, was in a New Orleans
hospital recovering from an ap'
pendicitiS operation.
MODESTO, Cal, March 20.
Beaten to 2 yesterday by the
Sacramento Sacs, the Chicago
Cubs hoped for better luck today
in an exhibition with the Oakland
club behind the pitching of Lon
Warneke. Tuck Stainback, regu-
lar center fielder, was ordered to
lay off for a few days because Of
a pulled muscle in his side.
LOS ANGELES, March 20.-Two
White Sox rockies and a veteran
were nominated for pitching duty
in to6ly's game against the Holly
wocd team. They are John Rig
ney, Monte Stratton and Ted
Lyons. Manager Jimmy Dykes,
perturbed at yesterdays 10 to 4

Pirates, ordered his charges to get
down to business today.

Gable Chapman is the only
man not with the 1885 collection.
He graduated last June. Before
going, however, Chapman tied for
first place in the high jump in
the inter-high meet-adding that
much to Roosevelt's prestige as
q budding school in the cinder
path sport.
Big Schedule
The Rough Riders will com.
pete in several interesting meets
between now and June !. A quad
rangular meet is on schedule
first, April 16. at Western. This
event will find Roosevelt compet
ing against Western, Washington
Lee High of Ballston, Va, and
Alexandria High.
Next is a meet with Forest
Park, Of Baltimore, at Baltimore.
May 3. On May 4, the team will
compete in the Maryland Univer'
sity interscholastics at College
Park while on May 8, Kendall
School will be engaged in a dual
meet at Roosevelt.
Alexandria High is listed, May
Is, at Roosevelt, while closing the
schedule for the season will be
the Central &C" Club games,
May 18 and the interhigh meet,
May "a, both at Central.
While on the subject of Roose'
welt High activities, the new sta
dium was the scene Of abundant
action yesterday, what with three
sports going all at once. The
track team drilled on the cinder
paths, the baseball team went
through light exercises, while the
football eleven held a surprise
spring drill.
Vets Practice
Among those practicing foot
ball were Francis Beamer and
spero Kolius, ends: Frank Witt
and Irwin Hayman, tackles; Gus
Papanicolas and Julius Lewis
guards; Ed Considine, center
Captain Frank Baroni, quarter
back; Joe Bovello and David
Pritchard, halfbacks, and Ed Ly'
man, fullback.
From this array Roosevelt prom
ises to put real football team on
the field next fall. Frank Resi-
all-conference man while at v. M
I. several years ago, helped Coach
Woodworth drill the footballers.

WIFE ACCUSED
'TRYSTS'

BRIDGEPORT, Conn.,, March
29.-Records on file today in the
Superior Court accuse Mrs. Arlene
Bennett Schley, wealthy and So
ciany prominent Bridgeport wom-
an, as a faithless wife who kept
clandestine trysts with her lover
in a garbage plant.
Henry Spaulding Schley, jr.,
makes the accusation in a divorce
petition, with custody of his 8.
year-old daughter, Diane, heiress
to $5, 900, 900, as the main prize.
Mr.. Schley charges his wife car
ried on an affair from 1892 until
recently with Chester F. Proud
man, superintendent of the Nor
walk sewage plant, claiming the
pair made their rendezvous in
the plant to avoid detection.

their first court sklrmiSh early
this week when Superior Court
Justice James T. Hallinan, at
Minneola, N. Y, awarded joint
custody Of their child to the
maternal and paternal grand
mothers.
Mr.. Schley, whose estate is
placed at more than $1,000, 900, Is
confined in a sanitarium, alegedly
because he fired a rifle in the di-
rection of Mr.. Proudman's mother
last June when she ordered him
away from Mr.. Proudman'S home.

WHITE DEFENDS
OCEAN MAIL
CONTRACTS
By UNITED STATES SENATOR
WALLACE H. WHITE, Jr.,
OF Maine

I do not believe. ocean mail
contracts should be abandoned.
In our 1928 act this form Of aid
was extended beyond its proper
use. It has, however, a vital
place in the shipping legislation
of every nation. Our own ex-
perience and the experience Of
other nations demonstrate this.
Mail payments in the nature
of subsidy should be limited to
ships of a type and speed appro.
pirate for rapid transportation OF
our mail and to vessels moving
to and from ports between which
some appreciable volume Of mail
now moves or may reasonably be
expected to move.
Such was the theory underlying
the first drafts Of the bills from
which the 1928 act developed.
This theory was discarded and
the Mail Contract Title was ex-
panded,, at the insistence Of those
who would not support a direct
subsidy, to cover cargo ships as
well as those legitimately the
carriers Of mail.
Payments Extended
It was fully understood that, as
so expanded, payments would be
made to ships carrying little or
no mail. Justification for this
position was found by those urg-
ing it in the many other obliga-
tions to the public and the Gov
ernment assumed by the contrac-
tor.
Notwithstanding this unwise en-
largement Of the. scope Of this
Mail Title, great accomplishment
in behalf of American shipping
has resulted.
BY the middle of 1888, contracts
had been entered into covering A
trade routes to the principal ports
of the world. Thirty-two new
vessels have been built for service
on these routes. Twenty-four ad-
ditional vessels are called for by
existing contracts and IL others
are conditionally required.
Cost Reduced
That this legislation has cost
money is true. That is has cost
much less than the system it sup
planted Is equally true.
The President states that at the
present time we are paying for
carrying our mails ~ million dol
lars more than it would cost ur1-
der normal ocean rates. I assume
this figure to be correct. .
For six years, 1921 to 1925 In
elusive, the annual average oper-
ating losses of the Fleet Corpora
ton and the administrative ex-
pense of the Shipping Board were
$4O,431, 900. In 1881, these items
were $6,346,000, a reduction Of
$35, ,005, 900.
This is illustrative Of the saw
ingS attributable to the assump-
ton of the shipping burden by
the private shipping companies Of
the United States under encour-
agement of these two features of
our law so summarily condemned
by the President.

BoilermakerS Taper OF in
Light Drill Following
Pep Session.
Times Special

LAFAYETTE. Ind, Nov. "a
Coach Noble KiZer sent the Boiler
maker squad through its last drill
of the season on Stuart field today
as he completed attack and defense
assignments for the thirty eighth
all-important rivalry tilt with Indi-
ana University tomorrow at Bloom
ington.
Following the last hard workout
OF the week yesterday in prepara-
ton for the attempt to regain the
Old Oaken Bucket trophy. Coach
Noble Kizer took the squad into the
Armory for huge pep session. It
was a campus football farewell TO
- seniors who will wear Boiler
maker moleskins for the last time

Coach Kizer and other members
of the coaching staff made short
talks. The head mentor declared
that Purdue is physically in good
shape and he urged his men to
continue the improvement shown
last week when they trounced Iowa,
The rousing boost for the team
came, however, from George AIDE,
Purdue alumnus, humoriSt and real

telegraphed: All Saturday after

Coach McMillin after a week CT
experimenting, has decided Purdue
is two-to-one better chance to win
tomorrow, principally because of In
dianas injuries and his inability to
have sufficient time to smooth an
offense. Today's final workout was
given over to new plays, because if
Indiana is to retain possession of
the Old Oaken Bucket and score the
first win over Purdue in years on
the local gridiron. it must have a
new offense, McMillin states.

undefeated, united eleVenS.
The mythical Eastern champion
ship will become the property of the
winner. If it goes to Dartmouth,
the Indians will be strong favorites
for an Eastern bid to the Pasadena
Rose Bowl game. Princeton turned
down an invitation in 1888 and un-
doubtedly will do so this year if it
finishes with a perfect record.
During recent weeks Dartmouth
had been counted out of the PaSa-
dena picture because of semi-offl-
cial reports that it would refuse an
invitation even if a f1aWless season
was turned in.
But the situation was clarified
this week by official explanation
that if and when Rose Bowl bid
is received Dartmouth's athletic
council of nine members will decide
the acceptance question.
Council Apparently in Favor
A large portion of the alumni and
a majority of the council members
are understood to favor the trip.
Princeton, which has lost only one
game in three seasons, ruled 712-
to-5 favorite to continue its reign
over Dartmouth. In Is games since
1897, the Tigers won II, Dartmouth
three and one ended in a tie.
The team that wins should have
easy sailing next week in its final
game of the season. Princeton plays
Yale, the eleven which upset it last
year, and Dartmouth encounters
much-beaten Columbia.
Tomorrows battle will be the Sec
ond largest betting contest of the
season, running only behind the
Notre Dame Ohio State braWl in the
amount of money wagered.
Dartmouth Leading Scorer
Dartmouth rolled up 289 points in
eight games to become the nation S
high scorer. Princeton garnered
1872 in seven contests. Against Cor
nell, Princeton triumphed $40 and
Dartmouth, Ais.
The teams appear to be evenly
matched, physically. The Princeton
back field is rated the superior
heavier and faster. Dartmouth has
an excellent line, slightly better
than Princeton's.
