Warm Springs, Georgia, the colony
where victims of infantile paralysis
are nursed back to health and with
which the President, because OF his
own affliction, has had much per-
sonaI connection. In returning from
the 1884 visit to Warm Springs, Mr..
Roosevelt stopped at Muscle Shoals,
Norris dam, and Birmingham for
personal visits to points and things
which interested him. All Of these
trips have been in addition to peri
odical visits to his home at Hyde

To Reduce Deficit @
If superficial appearances count
for anything, the administration is
actually making moves designed to
reduce the federal treasury's deficit
It is yet too early to tell definitely
what the plans are and administra-
ton spokesman are strangely quiet
about them, but, there are certain
signs and portends which may be
examined in the effort to determine
which way the government is head
ed in respect of the gigantic ex-
penditures for public works, relief
and general government costs.
While congressional committees
continue to examine tax questions
with a view to enactment of legis-
lation that will increase federal rev.
enue, the President and his advisors
have taken steps to cut down the
drain on the treasury.
The first and probably the most
important of these moves is the an
nouncement that on November !
federal aid to those people unable
to work will cease definitely. Relief
Administrator Hopkins announced
after conference with the Presi-
dent that the relief policy will be
changed on November and that
the various states, counties and mu-
inequalities will be expected after
that date to look after that seq.
ment of the population known as
the unemployables. These are PEG.

cannot earn their own living BY

Sale Of Browns
ToGroupSe
Imminent

ST. LOUIS, Dec. 3.-Purchase
Of the st. Louis Browns by a
syndicate of St. Louis business
men in the near future appeared
a certainty today following a
five-hour conference of II mem
berS of the proposed syndicate.
Walter M. Smith. spokesman
for the group, announced follow
ing the meeting that he and the
other 10 men had agreed to take
steps to purchase the club from
the estate of the late Phil Ball,
but that definite action was with
held because of the inability of
other members of the proposed
syndicate to attend the meeting
Such action will be taken, Smith
believes, when the 27 men Of the
group get together during the
latter part of next week.
$5OO,OOO Is Pooled
While Smith would not make
known the figure at which the
syndicate hopes to purchase the
club, he said that it had been
agreed at the conference that a
pool of approximately half mil
lion dollars would have to be
raised before final action would
be taken.
Since the Browns franchise is
reported to be on sale for, $400, 900,
the extra 100000 probably would
be used to strengthen the club
through trades and purchase OF
players.
The 100000 figure is believed
to include the price of the San
Antonio Club of the Texas League,
also owned by the Ball estate.
Apprised of Plans
Louis B. Won WeiSe, president Of
the Browns and executor of the
Phil Ball estate, Smith said, has
been apprised of the plans Of the
group of St. LouisanS to gain con
troll of the team and has agreed
to enter into negotiations with
them for the transfer of the fran
chise. Smith added that it is not
the intention to purchase Sports
mans Park, saying the park
would be leased in the event the
syndicate is successful in its plans
to gain control of the club.

man and manager of the Browns

indicated that he wanted none

Griff explained.
The Other Mans Game
I'D have to know lot more
about the game" Griff said. In
the first place, professional foot
ball is too young to have the
organization that baseball has
nodded together in go years. And
in the second place, I'm a base

said.
Further qualifications followed
this sudden reversal in statement.
Evades Age Issue
"Manush is a great ball player, d"
added Griff, che had q bad year
and he's had bad years before.
He's apt to come right back and
lead the league"
But he never had a bad year
at the age of a." it was suggested.

plate" was the rebuttal. I'D have
to have a pitcher for him. A good
pitcher"
What about Whitehill?" we
asked.
"He pitched above the teams

have won couple Of games with

stated.

better things. He moved to Wash

at Georgetown University.
When he graduated he obtained
a position with the Judge Advocate
Generals office of the War De
partment and in 1891 transferred
to the Indian Lands Division,
General Lands Office, Interior De

chief of division, which position
he held until his retirement in
1929. He lived at 5377 Sixteenth

daughters.
Beat OId-Time Star
He became aware of his talent
for chess when he won over the
renowned Captain Mackenzie in a
simultaneous match in the '70s.
Walker was the central figure
in two international cable
matches disputes. AS referee in
the famed match between the U. S.
Congress and the English Parlia-
ment, he rendered decision
which was much discussed.
In 1928, playing for Washington
against London in a cable match,
a garbled cablegram caused the
London team to protest and the
match was replayed.

said earnestly. "Mea are going to
make any trades khat will help
the club. But wei are not going to
tear anything down, and were
not going to give anything away"
Griff went ahead to state that
he was leaving Monday to attend
the American League meeting at
the Palmer House in Chicago.
1t is pretty well established that
the Yankees have cooled out on
a trade with Washington involving
Chapman. The Yankees might do
business with the local club if
they could get Buddy Myer. Al
though any mention of a trade for
Myer is met with derisive denials,
the opinion holds that Griffith
would make a deal for the current
batting champion if he could
make improvements in other de-
partmentS of the club.

Logic Seen
In Choice
OfS.M.U.
BY FRANK BUCK" oNEnL

Oy c"AANN OWN ~ ANGAAA
Logic overcame preference and
precedent in the selection Of
Southern Methodist University to
meet Stanford in the Rose Bowl
at Pasadena on New Year Day.
The Mustangs won their right
to play in the Bowl by playing
through schedule that matched
them with the best teams in the
Southwest.
They still have Texas A. and
M. College to face, but the latter
defeated only University of Texas
this year and nothing but a most
startling form reversal can bring
about the defeat Of Southern
Methodist.
Just as long as there was a
chance for Princeton to make the
trip to the Pacific Coast, the Rose
Bowl committee remained cool to
the Texans. But with the Tigers
not available because Of the three.
cornered agreement with Yale and
Harvard precluding post-seaso1
junkets, the Mustangs got the call.
Southern Methodist'S convincing
victory over the Uclans in Los
Angeles made them popular on
the Pacific Coast.
U. C. L. A. Beat Stanford
If the Rose Bowl committee had
gone all the way, it might have
invited some team other than
Stanford to meet the Mustangs
for University of California, Los
Angeles Branch beat Stanford by
a point. OF course the committee
could take no such radical step
for the Rose Bowl game is an
outstanding medium of nation
wide publicity for California and
the Pacific Coast. For that rea
son a Coast team must play.
Comparative scores give South
ern Methodist a wide edge ove1
Stanford. The UclanS trimmed
the Indians by a score of Z to 6
and Southern Methodist won ovei
the UclanS 81 to 0. If you go IN
for comparative scores, however
you will wind up in a mental fog

When Frank B. Walker heard
the Angel of the Lord whisper
softly "Checkmate" and the vet
eran local cheSsman tipped his
king in assent last Saturday night
he realized his ambition of dying
in harness.
The coming Saturday Walker
was to play the No board in an
intercity match between the Cap
ital City Chess Club and the Balti-
more City Chess Club. Later he
planned to participate in the Dis
trict tournament next month.
Though 78 he Steadfastly re-
fused to admit that he was no
longer the chess player of his
youth. He has been rated among
the citys five best performers
since his appearance in Washing
ton a half century ego.
In the club tournament COM
pleted two weeks ago, though he
had more years than his three
rivals combined, he proved he was
still to be reckoned with by up
setting the man who had just de-
feated the defending champion.
Establishes Self at Top
Coming to Washington in 1882
from Cleveland, Ohio, Walker i'm
mediately established himself as q
top-flight chess player here and
in 1896 won the District cham
pionship which he held for four
years. Though thereafter he was
always a strong contender, and
often a favorite, he only missed
one district tournment to his fol.
lowers knowledge. Walker did not
annex another District title until
1927. In 1911 he aid 1. S. Tur-
over tied, Turnover winning the
play-off. That he was powerful
player to the end was demon
strated when he captured two
legs on the I. S. Turover District
championship trophy, winning in
1890 and 1881. He repeatedly won
the Home Chess Club, now the
Capital City Chess Club title, and
was president of the Capital City
Chess Club in 1921 and 1922.
In the meantime he has seen
such brilliant performers as E. P.
Hanna, Dwyer, Vladimir Sournin,
I. S. Turnover, Albert Fox, Norman
T. Whitaker, rise to eminence and
retire, but he, like TennySon'S
brook, went on tricking them with
his famed center counter gamblt
Fooled Many Stars
This characteristic move of his,
considered a weak defense gen.
orally, has fooled many Of the
country's finest players in stimuli
taneouS matches.
Though chess was his favorite
paStime, and he devoted much
thought and study to it, contrl-
buting considerably toward popu'
larizing and publicizing it in Wash
ington by simultaneous play and
weekly newspaper articles, he
never tried to teach it. The Y. M
C. A. once sought him to teach
a class of youngsters in the in
tricacies of the game but after
a few attempts he gave it up.
Walker was a great booster OF
sports for young people and he
his good, lifelong friend. James
w. Byler recalls, was one of the
prime organizers of the once po
tent Sunday School Baseball
League. Walker himself though
then 40, pitched for the Calvary
Methodist Episcopal team, and
turned in excellent work.
