Says:

ance.
Well, if the testimony Of the
witnesses is accurate, Princeton
got a break. The question of
whether or not Handrahan made
legitimate effort to play the
ball, and not the fact that Kauf-
man tripped over him should
have been the matter for deci-
sion.
The ultimate Rose Bowl Selec-
tionS may be postponed now un-
til Thanksgiving Day. University
of Washington and Washington
State clash in Seattle, while Ala
bama mingleS with Vanderbilt at
Birmingham. One of the west
ern teams is practically certain
to be named as Rose Bowl
competitor, and the chances are
that if Alabama defeats Wander
bilt, it will be invited to Pasa-
dena.
The national gridiron was
Strewn with the weekend wreck
age that has been accepted as
usual this year. Perhaps the
most staggering collapse was
that of Fordham University,
which was played to a standStill
by the plucky Red Bulldogs of
University Of Georgia.
It may be argued that Ford
ham remains among the unde-
feated elevens of the country,
and Of course the record books
support such a contention. But
Georgia was regarded as nothing
better than a push over; team
that would put the Rams right
back on the track for New York
University. Georgia lost four
games this year. It was beaten
by Tennessee, Louisiana State,
Auburn and Rice. Fordham will
have great deal Of trouble in
explaining the matter of a tie
game.
Gains Revenge
The proportions of Notre e
Danes scoring foray against
hitherto undefeated Northwestern
was more surprising than the
mere fact that the Wildcats we're
beaten by the Nomads. Notre
Dame showed embarrassed power
against Navy, displayed that same
power better coordinated against
Army, and carried on to avenge
last seasons defeat at the hands
of Northwestern.
Turn about is fair play North
western ruined an unbeaten sea-
son for Notre Dame last year, and
now it was the Nomads' turn.
The same may be said of Du-
queSneAS victory over the Golden
Avalanche of Marquette. Mar
quette had gone along nicely with
seven opponents, and came down
to the game Duquesne confident
of winning and thus qualifying
for Rose Bowl honors. But the
DuqueSne line which tore the for.
ward wall of the Pitt Panthers to
pieces earlier in the season was
entirely too robust for Marquette.
And one long pass for a touch
down aided materially.
And while we're on the subject
of rip-snorting upsets, there was
the scoreless tie that Holy Cross
College played against a plucky
band of youngsters from st. An
selm's College. Now, anytime a
team can turn back the con
querors of Dartmouth three times
inside of the 10-yard line, it must
be accorded the full credit due its
deed. This is exactly what St
Anselm did to the Purple Cru
saders.
Iowa's smashing victory over
Temple may be classed as one OF
the surprising developments of a
day on which critics received re.
ports of reverses with no greater
emotion than a casual "'Zat so?'
Ozzie Simmons, the Negro ace
did some sensational running
against the Owls.

Iron Shots Score
For Shute

(COnt. from First Sports Page)
is perhaps the most fitting COM
mentary on this match between
swaShbuckling power and icy calm
that Thomson went l down by los
ing the first hole with a bungled
putt and never was "up" at any
time, morning or afternoon.
Shute came up to the press room
afterwards-by request-and said
the two best shots of the day were
Thomson's putt around a stymie
to half the thirtieth and Thorn
sons out from a trap at the thirty
third, followed by tough 4-footer
for a half. But if the new cham
pion will pardon my protruding
lip, the feature of the day was the
fact that he, Shute, always hit the
best approach from the worst posi-
ton.
The CIinching Shot
I might add that the best single
shot of the day was practically
shute's last, a 23O-yard spoon shot
to end the match with an eagle 3
on the thirty-fourth. It was on
the flag from the moment OF i'm
pact, stopping 5 feet away. And
downright integrity forces me to
say that Thomson would have
played it with more distance and
less shot.
It was the kind of shot that a
man like Shute-admittedly
"short" with everything except
an approach putt-plays when the
pressure is on. He almost didn't
qualify in the very championship
he won here yesterday for the first
time. In fact, he needed par from
the twelfth hole in to finish with
the match-play field and par is
exactly what he got.
Briefly, he can be just as good
as he has to be. He was only l
up with his indifferent IA of the
morning round and never more
than up at any time; yet he was
every inch the winner all the time
and merely to see him was to
know it.
Thomson played good golf in the
afternoon with a par SO to the
turn; Shute played better to be
one under As for the final 16 holes.
For the first 5 minutes of each
hole, Shute seemed certain to lose;
and for the final, desperate so Sec
ondS over the puts, he had Thorn
son "scrambling" for halves.
Beaten Five Years Ago
Shute once got to the finals of
the P. G. A. five years ago, losing
to Tom Creavy. Not before and
never since had he been close
enough to see the championship
cup, except over the shoulders of
the assembled gallery during a
clubhouse presentation. However,
it wasn't Shute'S first major title,
He won the British open a lew
years back after a playoff with
Craig Wood, and has always been
a man to reckon with.
In fact, I cannot remember the
time when he wasn't first-rate
golfer-at least since he left West
ern Reserve University quite some
few years ago. The son of a
West Virginia professional, he first
played as an amateur and did
right we'll. Then he turned pro
and surprisingly did even better
AS a maSter-technician, he was at
his best yesterday.
So, whether he looks like small
or big-town undertaken, the point
seems exceedingly unimportant
and, besides, maybe his apparent
gloom was come by honestly. Any,
how, the first prize here was ST.,
0O0-and all I can say is that this
week of heartbreak was worth a
million.

The Earle Theater will present
this week the world premiere Of
Grace Moore's new film, 1.-The
King Steps Out" Striking out
boldly, the producers have left be-
hind the usual story of a young
singer struggling to get in the
Metropolitan Opera Company, and
have allowed Miss Moore to select
a musical comedy which she
brought over from Europe. Under
the title Of "CiSSy," the light opera
has been meeting with much sue
cess in Europe and Miss Moore
brought the American rights to
the work.
Music composed by the eminent
violiniSt and composer. Fritz
Kreisler, has been adapted to the
lyrics used in the film with great
and telling effect. Among the
familiar Kreisler works will be
recognized the following: Caprice
Viennois," "Soldatensmarch,"
"Liebesteid," "Liebesfreud," THE
Old Refrain" Itch war so Gem
Einmal," and Elm STILES Gluck."
Miss Moore's voice is recorded
in a most faithful manner and
the comedy action will surely
bring many hearty laugh.

In the excitement prevailing
with the annual visit Of the Bar
mum and Bailey and Ringing
Brothers Circus, the part that mu-
sic plays in each presentation is
not always given due considera-
ton.
A circus without a band is I'M
thinkable. The band, catching the
rhythm of flying hoofs or swing
ing trapeeze, serves to heighten
the effects and thrills. In times of
emergency, as in that caused by
yesterdays storm, Merle Evans,
veteran band leader, gives the
band a cue and the musicians
play loudly to overcome the sounds
of hySteria and thus aid in calm
ing the crowd.
The circus band does not al
ways play fortisSimo; at the open
ing concert preceding each per-
Torrance. a group Of high class
works are performed. Last night
the band played Rhapsody in
Blue" (GershWin selection,
MY Maryland;;" and a Goldman
march, stepping Along" Merle
Evans selects different works for
each concert. "Marche Slav," and
Overture 1872" (TSchaikowsky)
are but further samples of num-
bers included in their repertoire.
Just as the force of clowns are
sometimes Joined by local clown,
so Merle Evans sometimes allows
old trouperS to join his band for
a day. A couple of Washington
musicians are playing with the
band just for the fun of tit is
hard to get the yearning for the
SaWdust ring out of ones blood.
In talking to Merle Evans, we were
grieved to find an old friend o:
boyhood days. Charles Price, VINO
had been trumpeter with the cir
Gus band for many years, had
passed away. Back in the days
when we were still playing peck
horn" Charles Price was quite the
musical idol of our community in
Pennsylvania.
The Arlington County School
Plectrum Club of 100 youthful
members under the direction of
Louis Colangelo, made quite a hit
with the audience yesterday eve
ming in presentation of the Fox
Theatre Music Festival.
While the large ensemble played
mostly popular songs, such as:
First Love-" whispering Hope"
Moonlight and Roses" isle of
Capri" Red Sails in the Sunset"
and La Paloma," they were play
ing music that they seemed to
enjoy. If through the use of these
more popular songs, the youthful
musicians are led to a higher ap-
probation of music and more pre-
tentious instruments, the plectrum
instruments will have served their
purpose well. Adults are too much
inclined to frown upon the efforts
of young musicians.
Yet if a child is called upon
to sing, recite or dance, the I'm
finished efforts are usually greeted
with great acclaim and remarks
of How cute" But let child at
tempt a musical performance, i'm
mediately minimizing adults will
compare his efforts with that of
professional or artist musicians.
The Tuesday Evening Music
Club, composed of female voices,
under the direction Of Florence
Howard, gave a group of songs
sung in well balanced and fine ex-
preston. Somehow, the M. c., Phil
Lampkin, forgets his notes and
did not announce the name of
this sterling vocal organization
nor the works they were to sing.
The group included: Morning

PROTESTS

Rising protest against increas
ing individual income taxes in an
election year today slowed down
action by the Senate Finance Com
mite on its compromise revision
Of President Roosevelt's 800 mil
lion dollar tax bill.
The compromise measure car
ried increased levies on individual
income taxes as we'll as a boost in
corporation taxes. Treasury au,
thorities estimated the compro-
mise would bring $40 million dol
lars Of new revenue.
Await New Estimates
With opposition developing
against the individual tax boost,
the committee called on the Treas
ury to supply estimates of reve-
neu to be obtained from host of
other levieS. 1t adjourned its Sc
cret sessions until tomorrow,
pending reports on these estimates.
Three subcommittee met mean
while to revise the so-called wind
fall" tax section and the provi-
sion for refunding unlaWfully col
lected processing taxes, and to
draft a new section, recognizing
insurance policies drawn to pay
Federal taxes. The later was rec
commended by insurance compan-
les, which propose to issue insur-
ance policies for the payment of
estate taxes upon the death of a
policyholder.
Tax Bill "Must'
That the President was deter
mined to keep Congress in session
until an adequate tax measure is
finally passed was revealed by
Democratic congressional leaders.
Roosevelt's message to Congress
March 8, asking for new revenue,
left the President an "out" on the
corporate surplus tax plan. Instead
OF recommending the plan, drafted
by Treasury experts, the President
merely suggested" it.
Although relying on the Treas
ury for estimates on the yield of
the compromise proposals, Chair
man Harrison CD, of Mississippi,
yesterday put L. H. Parker, head
OF the congressional tax experts,
and Milton Leaman, chief of the
legislative counsel, in charge of
writing the draft of the measure
to be submitted to the committee
tomorrow.
Sponsors Left in Air
They are to frame the bill on
these propositions, with Treasury
estimates totaling 642 millions, as
follows:
Repeal of exemption of divi-
dendS from income taxes, 113
millions. =
Eighteen per cent corporate
income tax, 244 millions.
Seven per cent tax on undis-
tributed corporate net income,
225 millions.
Increase in normal individual
income tax from 4 to S per cent,
go millions.
In addition, it was estimated
that the proposed penalty, tax Of
