WILLIAMS FINDS
NATIVES MORBID
Reason: If Brevity Wins

BY JOE WILLIAMS
Times Special Writer

LOUISVILLE, KY, May 2.-The
Hard Boots, as the natives are called
by way of distinguishing them from
the Patent Leather Kids of the
East, approached the Derby today
with morbid emotions.
To begin with, they weren't able
to distill much enthusiasm over Old
Man Bradley's colts, and this always
is a melancholy state of affairs.
Generally the Hard Boots are able
to accept the Derby as a matter of
course. They just say Bradley and
let it go at that.
But this year even Bradley him.
self has conceded the race to Brew
ity and that makes the gloom COM
plete. To the consoling suggestion
that it might be worse, comes the
ready answer that it probably will
be worse. You see. the Hard Boots
not only face the misery of defeat,
but the native character of the race
itself is inperiled.
If Brevity wins, the Derby no
longer will be the Derby in official
racing circles; it will be the Darby.
And long experience has taught me
that when you call the Derby Darby

music contest stage.
He Investigated, discovered
suspender button had popped
off. He reached for a safety
pin, stretched for the straying

pinning a suspender and main
tanning a fluent crescendo was
too great-his collar pin tipped

The youth put the safety
pin in his mouth, held the
trousers up with one hand,
reached for his collar with
the other. He sneezed-and

Doctors said the pir would

ROME, May g. Italian
troops, fighting rain and rae
ing mountain torrents, adj
vanced along muddy roads of
the great Shoa Media plain to-
day on the last stage of their
march to Adds Ababa.
Today's war bulletin made nc
mention of the dangerous threat to
foreigners in the capital.
"On the northern front the adj
vance of all columns, overcoming
considerable difficulties of terrain,
is proceeding according to plan," it
said
No reference at all was made to
the time at which Italians were
likely to arrive at Adds Ababa.
The report today said that on the
Eastern front, the Italians were
pursuing fleeing warriors north
ward. But the gravity of the stu
alton at Adds Ababa and the ma
tional rejoicing in Italy~over the
prospect of it's fall, left little room
in the mind of the officials for the
eastern front.
Reports of the flight of Emperor
Halle Selassie from his capital
came as a complete surprise to
Rome. Official comment was not
obtainable due to the weekend
half holiday and lack of official
Italian confirmation.
Government leaders were conf
dent that any disturbances at Adj
dis Ababa would be terminated i'm
mediately as soon as the Italian
command established its authority
at the capital.
1t also was emphasized that the
Italians would protect the lives and
property of foreigners.
