ASRECKLESS

ROCKVILLE, Md, June 90.
Thomas L. Dawson, Maryland's
secretary of State, was found
guilty of the charge of reckless
driving and not guilty of a charge
Of operating an automobile while
under the influence of liquor by
Judge Harold C. Smith in Rock
vile Police Court today and fined
$11 and costs. His counsel noted
an appeal.
The charges against Mr.. Daw-
son originated from a triple auto
mobile collision on the Rockville
Pike, near Bethesda, Md, last
April 26. The warrants were sworn
py c. j. GenCzIer, of 2505 Key
Blvd, Clarendon, Va, operator
of one of the automobiles.
Mr.. Gentzler and his sister, Mrs.
Maggie Diehl, of the Clarendon
address. who was injured, were the
witnesses for the State.
Mr.. Dawson testified that the
week prior to the accident he had
suffered sprained ankle. Hav-
ing been walking on the foot since
the preceding Thursday without
any discomfort, he said
he drove to washington the after
noon of the accident.
Returning home about II
o'clock, Mr.. Dawson said, a car
forced him off the highway. In
attempting to pull back on the
road. he suddenly placed his foot
on the clutch and his injured
ankle gave him such terrific pain
he was momentarily distracted
from his driving, he testified.
Immediately following this, Mr..
Dawson said, another automobile
going in the opposite direction was
near the center of the road and
they side-swiped. This caused
him to careen across the highway
into the automobile driven by Mr..
GentZler, he said.

PARIS, June 29.-Tens Of thouS-
andS of foreign guests on the gilt
tering golden Riviera today felt
the hot breath of that class hatred
which today is sweeping France
as a general strike of hotel workers
closed $50 hotels of the famous
cote d'azur at the height Of the
Respondent season.
The hatred of the "have notS"
for the "haves" and the life and
death of the upper and lower class
was predicted by Frances number
one Communist, Maurice Thorez,
when the present coalition of
Communist, liberals and socialists
took power. The head of the
French Communist Party de-
clared:
Success Of the popular front
means a recrudescence Of the
class struggle. France is ad-
vanCing towards q great, i'm

WIMBLEDON, Eng, June %
Q.N.S0 The task of upholding
American honor in the mems
singles of the all-England tennis
championships described today on
the shoulders of Donald Bulge,
red-haired Californian, when Will
mer Allison and Bryan "Bitsy"
Grant fell by the waySide in their
quarter-final matches.
BY virtue of his 60, Ga, ga
victory over Adrian Quist, of
Australia, Bulge became sole
American survivor in this section
of the tournament.
Grant had lost to Fred Perry,
defening champion, ga, 6-3,
81, while Allison went down be-
fore H. w. Bunny" Austin, Of
England, 6-1, Ga, IS.
The Allison-Austin match was
interrupted by a deluge of rain
after the Briton had won the first
set and the second stood at 2-all.
ReSuming after the rain stopped,
games went with service until the
ninth, where Allison dropped his
own service at love and gave the
Englishman a 5-4 lead.
In the third set, the American
made a gallant bid for recovery
after trailing 3-5, winning his
service at love and then fighting
against match point four times 70
level the set at sail.
The effort tired him out, how
ever, and Austin swept through
the last two games. Wimbledon's
huge crowd gave Allison a great
ovation for his display of fighting
spirit, although it was apparent
Austin had clearly out-claSsed him.
The American champion has not
been in his best form during the
entire tournament.

Mrs. Peoples frightened. you're
