Tommy Hitchcock, Jr., apparent ly is slipping from the spot in the sports limelght he shared with Babe Ruth, Jack Dempsey, Bobby Jcnes, Bill Tilden, Helen Wills, and Paavo Nurmi in those glamorous post-war days.
 The tumbling of Hitchcock from 10-goal eminence the lofty position he occupied since 1922 very likely marks the end of his playing ca reer. Serious injuries kept him in- active last year and it is doubtful if he will participate in champion ship play again.
 His career, beginning at the age of l3 when he played his first real polo, has been replete with action and adventure.
 At 16 he appeared in tournament play for the first time and helped his team win both the national junior and senior championships at NarraganSett Pier k. l.
 Just as a triumphant career of mallet swinging seemed to be un- folding ahead of the boy wonder America entered the war and in- terrupted his efforts on the polo field.
 Hitchcock joined the air force and had the honor of being the youngest American aviator to de- stroy an enemy plane. He shot down two planes and was thrice decorated before he himself was forced down in enemy territory with a bullet in his hip and his plane out of control. After months in the hospital and prison camps he escaped into Switzerland.
 Discharged in 1919. he was back in his old polo form in short time. He played abroad. in Eng land and on the Riviera in 1920.
 In 1921 England held the old

For a time, partly due to his experiences in the war, Hitch cocks health was not of the best. But he simply would not stay off the polo fields. In 1924, stimulants were needed to keep him going in the cup matches with England.
 There was something about his reckless riding and terrific hitting that caught the fancy of the crowd

The Am erican team was composed of De- vereux Milburn at back, Watson Webb at No. 3, Hitchcock at No. 2 and Louis Stoddard at No. 1. As a result of the American victory, all four members of the team were elevated to 10-goal rating in 1922.
 Over the years from 1922 to 1882. Hitchcock played probably the most sensational polo of any man in the history of the game. Tn international matches, particular ly, did his game rise to great heights.

The black widow spider, con.

GUS of all insects, is harmless,
experiments conducted by q
scientist of the American Ma.
ture Association revealed today.
The scientist, w. j. Baerg, al
lowed black widow spider to
bite him. While the bite proved
extremely painful, he felt no i'll
effects as a result of the sting,
Mr.. Baerg said. Hot water he
added, proved the best cure for
the bite. Describing the expert
ment, Mr.. Baerg said:
almost Immediately after the
bite there was a sharp pain in
the finger and in 20 minutes it
had extended to the shoulder.
In little more than two hours
there was pain in the shoulder,
the chest and the hips. Then
the pain spread to the toes. It
was a sort of aching sensation

FERA TAKES UP
RESIDENCE IN
AUDITORIUM
BY J. EARLE MOsER

Statisticians, desks, electric
light globes, paper clips, file cards,
rubber bands, and a smell Of roSin
have combined to give the Wash
ington Auditorium the most gro
tesque and upset appearance in
it's entire history.
All but the smell of rosin has
been caused by FERA, which hour
ly is taking more complete posses
sion of the building which has
housed opera, basketball, boxing,
dance marathons, and other &C
tivitieS. The roSin aroma is all
that is left from the weekly per-
formances of Joe Turner's beefy
wrestlers, who must do their Crap
pling elsewhere next winter.
TRICK DESKS MOVED IN
Facing the historic stage, where
announcers were won't to howl the
names and weights of various
cauliflower-eared gentry, will sit
several hundred comptometer op-
orators and figure experts, whose
modernistic green metal desks are
now being moved in.
In the basement, where the
"Bootleggers' Ball" took place sew
eral years ago and sleepy-eyed
marathoners once shuffled around
in circles, more desks are to be
placed for the overlooking per-
sonnet under Administrator Harry
Hopkins. The lobby, where sports
lovers pushed and hauled, also is
lined with workers, while the gal
lery's circle of seats, useless for
Federal purposes, remains deserted
and dusty in the gloom.
BUILDING is COOL
The building, because of its high
ceiling and good ventilation, is ex-
pected to be unusually cool during
the summer, having advantages
similar to General Accounting
Offices location in the old Pen
sion office. Parking facilities also
are a trifle better than those OF
most Federal buildings.
FERA officials said today that
we're now ready for any and all
emergencies" but that only a few
new workers will be taken on for
work-relief activity. It was ex-
planned that additional workers,
when needed, are being sent over
by the Treasury Department, and
that when more help is desired
the new policy is to take employees
from other units rather than to
make new appointments.
The Government has leased the
building for one year, dating from
June !, it was said.
Intending establishment Of q
low-priced home community for
employees, probably in nearby
Virginia, the Rent and Housing

Agriculture has scheduled a mass

The committee last week sent
out a QUESTIONABLE to more than

ing opinions on the type of home

ties.

NEW YORK, June 24.-Star-
Ting evidence, disclosing in many
instances, fraud and misrepre-
sentation in real estate bond
holders reorganizations, will be
turned over to the Department Of
Justice for prosecution, it was re-
vealed today.
Representative SABBATH CD, OF
Illinois, chairman of the Special
House Committee that uncovered
this evidence, announced the
Governments determination to
prosecute, and at the same time
revealed further sensational dis
closures of the committee.
fragrant Case
OF some 1000 Bondholders'
Protective Committees under in
vestigation by the committee, ne
said those in the New York
Metropolitan area represent prop
erty valued at from four to five
billion dollars.
The very first case to be investi-
gated in New York City disclosed
what E. Jay Conner, technical ad-
wiser to the committee, described
as a fragrant" situation, insofar
as rights Of bondholderS were
concerned.
This was the matter of a local
bond corporation, which had pre-
viouSly issued some forty million
dollars of bonds in and about
Philadelphia and the eastern area.
Deposit Of $75.61
Mr.. Conner testified:
"In this particular instance
we find that this company COM
mittee would form its subsidiary
or operating company, and in
cases where the property was
fOreclOsed and turned into the
new corporation, the bOndhOld.
ers would receive the bonds, but
the gentlemen in the picture
would receive the equity in the
corporation"
BY the gentlemen in the pic
ture" Mr.. Conner said he meant
the members of the bondholders'
committee. He testified that with
a deposit of 1851 by this COM
mittee they in turn received
ten thousand dollars par amount
of bonds. That ranked on a
parity with the amount of bonds
which the bondholders originally
deposited. In other words, the
bondholders' bonds cost them ten
thousand dollars.
Nickel on Dollar
Chairman SABBATH said:
"YOu mean that the bond
holders holding ten thousand
dollars worth of bonds received
in return from this committee
$75.61?"
II mean that the bondholder
who deposited his ten thousand
dollars of bonds got ten thou
sand dollars of new bonds back,
but this committee that depOS-
tied $75.61 received in turn ten
thousand dollars par amount Of
bonds"
Questioned as to the market
price of some of the bonds sold by
this concern. a witness testified
those on some properties were sell
ing at over six cents on the dollar,
others at two cents on the dollar
and five cents on the dollar.
