"hE pressure was on tlgnt TO-
day as four crack basket ball
teams went after the Metro
Il politan Washington inter-
scholastic championship in The Eve
nlng Stars fourth annual tournament
at Tech High.
At 3:45 o'clock the Washington
public school champion and defending
titleholder in the metropolitan scrap,
Eastern, was to meet the strongest
schoolboy team of Northern Virginia,
George Washington High of Alexan-
dria.
Immediately after this game the
Montgomery County standard bearer,
Bethesda Chevy Chase, was to tackle
Mount Rainier. the scrappy repre-
sentative of Prince Georges County.
The survivors of these contests will
battle Saturday afternoon for the
metropolitan title, won for two straight
years by Eastern, a school which
hasn't known defeat in tournament
competition during the last two
seasons.
Glrl Stars to Perform.
A TEAM with a record almost as
brilliant as Eastern's will appear
on the Saturday program when Fred
ericksburg, (Va) High shows of its
burg maids have won an even two
dozen victories in a row. In a game
starting at o'clock, they will meet
the Sherwood High girls of Mont
gomery County, who lately have come
through series of keenly contested
games with colors flying.
Eastern ruled a prohibitive favorite
to beat George Washington High, al
though the Alexandria youngsters, who
have lost only three games this season
to schoolboy teams. haven't seemed
daunted by Eastern's great record.
The game between Mount Rainier
and Bethesda Chevy Chase promised
to be the hottest of the tournament.
The Maryland schools asked to be
paired in the first round in order to
be sure of meeting.
They Mean Business.
DERRY WILKINSON, who coaches
the Mounts, and Tony Kupka,
the Bethesda Chevy Chase tutor, may
not boast of world beating" teams
from the standpoint of mechanical
skill, but they bow to none in the
matter of scrappiness.
Bethesda will know its been in a
ball game" say the Mount Rainier
lads, and from the Lelanders comes
the challenging reply: Here's one
game we've gotta win!'
The Community Center Department
is expecting a neat financial pickup
from the tournament, with all pro-
ceeds above expenses to be turned
into its fund. The admission fee each
day is two bits
All prizes have been supplied by
The Star, with trophies and medals
to be presented to the first and sec
ond boy teams and a trophy to the
winner Of the girls battle. which
promises to be humdinger in spite
of the apparently superior record of
the Old Dominion flappers.
According to Johnny Fenlon, for
mer George Washington University
foot ball ace, who directs athletics at
Fredericksburg High, several OF the
girls could do very we'll on the schools

PAINTING LEMONS
ON AUTOS UPHELD

Automobiles who. in a spirit of de-
rision, want to paint lemons or white
elephants on their cars are within the
law, Acting Corporation Counsel Ver-
non E. West ruled today to the chagrin
Of an unnamed automobile dealer.
The decision revolved around an at
tempt to have warrant issued against
Vernon Haynes of 212l First street,
who was given a ticket after painting
lemons all over his car and parking it
before the complaining dealer, who was
outraged at the sign Haunted on the
car: Il paid $812 for this lemon"
Policeman j. A. Wright ticketed the
car and charged Haynes with using a
vehicle for advertising purposes" but
the assistant corporation counsel re-
fused the automobile firms request for
q warrant.
The West ruling was the second set
back for auto dealers, who are annoyed
by two other cars bearing lemons and
two decorated with white elephants,
an old symbol denoting q jinx. Still
another has actual lemons strung
around it.
Haynes, a week ago, parked his car
in front of an automobile dealer who
sought revenge by having his employees

Describing his visit to Gallinger,

sort Of relief that Senator Glass gets

Ey the Associated Press.
Pulling q surprise on the defense,
the House prosecution introduced
evidence in the Senate impeachment
trial today that Federal Judge Hal
sted l.. Ritter Of Florida, the Defend
ant, recommended his former law
partner, A. L. Rankin Of West Palm
Beach, Fla, in 1929 for the Federal
bench.
In his recommendation Ritter noted
that Rankin was a supporter OF
Herbert Hoover.
Frank P. Walsh, defense counsel.
objected strenuously TO the evidence
before Vice President Garner. pre-
siding, allowed it to go in with the
declaration the Senate was familiar
enough with the case to judge its
relevancy.
Walsh said 1t was purely political"
and immaterial He said Judge Ritter
had denied politics had entered into
any OF his actions or appointments.
Verdict Is Imminent.
The Senate was ready today to hear
ClOSlIlR al dTBuIIlCIlLS III tllC u ldi, Will O
verdict possible before night.
Cross-examination of the 65-year-
old Judge was completed Saturday.
His defense counsel said rebuttal tes-
timony would be presented today be-
fore the final arguments.
Then, with all others excluded from
the chamber, the Senators planned to
sIk L. soIa f,tlr ANT Yyaffrn the
seven articles of Impeachment en-
bracing charges that Ritter granted
excessive receivership fees. corrupt
ly" benefited from these allowances,
practiced law after becoming Judge
and evaded income taxes.
The twelfth impeachment case in
1877 years had its inception in COM
plants which House Judiciary Sub
committee Investigated in 1888 and
1894.
Native of Indiana.
Ritter. native of Indiana and gradu-
ate of DePauw University, who prac-
ticed law for 80 years in Denver be-
fore going to Florida in 1925. was
charged in the original four articles
of impeachment with:
Granting an excessive fee Of $4,000
to Rankin for services in the receiver
ship of Whitehall Hotel, at Palm
Beach. after another judge had al
lowed Rankin SIS, 1000 in the case.
"Corruptly" accepting $4,000 from
Rankin after he allowed the fee.
Violation of Code Charged.
Conniving with Rankin and others
to bring the suit and then "willfully"
failing to conserve the assets.
Violating the judicial code by
practicing law.
Bringing his court into scandal
and disrepute" by the collective actions
complained of, legally termed high
crimes and msidemeanors."
Later three more articles were voted
embracing two charges of income tax
evasion and an additional count that
he practiced law after going on the
bench in February, 1929, on appoint
| ment Of President Coolidge.
Ritter entered an emphatic denial
Of all the charges.

seeking shelter. No shots were fired.
A Fascist bomber later circled over
the capital.
Reserve manpower was dispatched
to defensive positions from Lake Tana,
sphere Of British influence In the
northwest, to Lake Ashangi, in the
central sector 100 miles north Of
Dessye, centering about Waldie, scene
of an earlier Ethiopian defeat.
The government spokesman said a
direct message from the Emperor in
dicated he was safe, despite delicate
health.
Government officials attributed the
earlier retreat of the Ethiopian armies
in the north to an absolute lack Of
defense against alleged poison gas at
tacks and aerial bombardments.
Ethiopian reports said squadron
of italian planes bombarded Warra
Bailu, 40 miles southwest of Dessye,
yesterday, sending crowds of Sunday
worshipers rushing from churches.
Three persons we're reported to have
been killed.
The dispatch of reserves indicated
a change in the Enlperor's military
tactics.
Previously, he had guarded against
great concentrations, particularly In
the difficult terrain of the extreme
north.
Now, government oficials said, the
Fascist armies were handicapped by
hasty extension Of their lines, while
the little rains" were becoming
heavier each day.
Jones then said he got Anna Wares
baby for adoption by acquaintances
of his one-time friend, Mrs. Grace
Thomasson.
