Like the song, the 100000 race
is over, but like the melody, the
controversy fingers on-and on.
It's been raging now for nine
days.
A local reader of these lines
asks bluntly:
"If you had been a steward
at Santa AnitS would you have
voted to disqualify Top Row."
And our answer is, NO. Simply
because we believed - and the
moving pictures bear out our
belief-that Time Supply himself
started the humping ruckus.
BUT: We would have plas-
tered stiff fines and long suspen-
sions on Jockeys Wright. and
Luther for their absolute dis
regard of the rights of other
horses and jockeys.
Until Americ racing Of
ficials crack down on do-as-they-
please jockeys we are going to
have just such rodeo-ridden races
as the Santa Anita Handicap was
from the last eighth-pole in. If
the Santa Anita had been run in
England, neither Wright nor
Luther might ever have ridden
another race. They certainly
would have suffered long, pos
sibly two-year suspensions.
You will hear people say that
both Brokers Tip and Head Play
should have been disqualified in
the 1888 Kentucky Derby. That
would have been an injustice to the
owners, trainers and hackers OF
those horses. Also it would have
been an unjustifiable benefit to
the hackers of Charley o. (And we
happened to be one of themD He
met with no interference, was a
dead beat horse, rather lucky to be
third. Why move him up to first?-
a gift he did not deserve.

AT THE RACES

, Neither do we believe Brokers
Tip should have been disqualified
and Head Play made the winner.
Both jockeys, Meade and Fisher,
respectively, we're guilty Of foul,
unfair riding. The result should
have stood, as it did. But Meade
and Fisher should have been fined
half their prospective and reSpec-
tie fees and given equal-and long
vacations from the saddle.
Too many of our jockeys are
riding races like millions of men
are driving automobiles: as they
please, with utter disregard of traf-
fic laws and the safety and rights
G.: others. And altogether too many
racing officials are countenanc1ng
their unfair riding by neither fin
ing nor suspending them in mer-
tied degree. What is 80 days on the
ground to a jockey with a $40, 900
fee at stake? But SuppoSing he
knew that foul riding meant a
possible fine of $4,000, and a year
on the ground?
Our so-called American spirit,
and that much-vaunted rugged
individualisn" can be badly over
done and are sadly being over
done, out of all reason, by officials
in condoning the rough riding and
life-endangering tactics of many
jockeys. Not only jockeys who
grab and hang onto saddle cloths,
reins and other riders legs, but
those who break from outer post
positions and ride whoop-de-do,
hell-bent-for-electi across the
track to the inner rail, piling up
horses and jockeys.
American racing doesn't need
mere disqualifications, but more
and heavier fines and suspensions
for needless, bull-headed jockeys.
Given those, racing will have less.
by far, need Of disqualifications.
And cleaner, more formful racing.

Hap HardeII
: Tunes Track.
Team
BY GARRETT WATERS


Coach Hap Hardell, Of Tech
High School, comes up with an
Interesting statement today. It's
about football. And right away
you know anything Hap might
say is pessimism personified.
Well, you're half right, but form
your own opinions:
"I'm not going to hold any
spring football drills at Tech this
year. Maybe it's because I'm
superStitiOus. Anyway, each
spring we've held practices,
Techs showing was poor the fol-
lowing fall"
We asked Hap if this was really
definite. in the hope he might
hedge a little. He hedged by say
ing:
"WeIl, now, 1 might let the
boys pass and run a bit in the
gym with the doors wide open
for air. 1 might even hold a
few signal drills. But no heavy
work is under plan. In truth,
IT'S too much to ask a boy,
particularly If he's out for track
or baseball"
Tech has held spring practice
sessions only twice in recent
years. And as Hap has stated, in
each instance the eleven has
Jared poorly in the interhigh
football series the following fall.
All other times the champion
ship was won.
Eyes Title Again
Next fall, Hardell hopes to win
back the title. He believes his
material will be rather promising
and has an idea the usual two
weeks at College Park will whip
the team into the sort of shape
that has characterized other Tech
champions. Maybe this is the
big reason for the planned depar.
ture from practice this spring,
Anyway it's Hap's job and he's
stuck with it.
Right now the mentor is
busily engaged in getting his
track team into condition for the
season. He's already announced
his intentions of taking a squad
to the Chapel Hill games Fri
day, which means the next few
days will be busy no end for all
concerned.
Mile Relay Team
Hardell's chief thought at pres
ant is the development of a mile
relay team. He hasn't selected
one yet, but will concentrate on
the following men for positions:
Sachs, FarnSworth, Krotl, Nil
itzer, Lester and Ford. You will
notice the bulk of this group are
football aces.
Frank Haske and Herb Sap
perstein will represent the team
in the 6O-yard dash. Youngsters
by the names of White, Thomas,
Williamson and Militzer also will
run in this event. Gwen Hap
doesn't know the first names of
his charges)
Leo Wall and Harry March
will do the high jumping and
hurdles with Frank Tolzman
helping out in the latter. All in
all IA boys will make the trip.

 IN PAA FORGE

Drastic curtailment of personnel and suspension of operations by the Pacific Alaska Airways, due to the elimination of the Senate's amend ment for $2O0,OO0 for Alaska air mail service from the deficiency approp- riation bill, was disclosed today.
 Effective today, the loocal force of the PAA will be reduced to one man, R. M McCrary, who will re- main on duty at the local airport, Pilot Murray Stuart, Traffic repre- sentative S. c. Bassett, Mechanic Paul Brewer, and Flight Mechanic Lloyd Jarman are relieved from duty, and it is assumed that the traffic force in the Interior will be eliminated, reducing the entire PAA personnel to few pilots and me- chanics.

GRANGER SEES HOPE FOR PULP
 IN TERRITORY

It is one or the U. 5. Forest Ser vices major thoughts to aid in pro- noting industry in Alaska, accord ng to c. M. Granger, Assistant U. s. Forester, who has arrived here with Regional Forester c. H. Flory aboard the vessel Forester after a trip over Southeast Alaska. MT. Granger joined MT. Flory on the Forester at Ketchikan when he ar rived there by steamer from the south
 Tuesday the two men started out for forest inspection journey over the Interior and to the Westward. The present plan is to fly.
 We do not see any immediate opportunity for the development of large industries which would bring any great influx of people. Rath- CT, we feel that by encouraging small industries we can held the community. These small industries can be the means of providing a winter livelihood for many people. l" MT. Granger said.
 Pulp Possibilities Seen
 The Forest Service, MT. Granger emphasized, has not forgotten the possibility of a future pulp and pa per industry in Southeast Alaska. Tn forest here is ideally suited for such purpose an dthrough efforts made by the service several years ago the development of two large mills seemed imminent. However, the depression stopped all progress toward establishment of mills after extensive surveys had been made, even after sites had been selected
 Since then, MT. Granger said, two developments have arisen that might not be the best for early establish ment of Alaskan mills. First of all, there has been considerable ex- pansion of paper manufacturing in dustries in Washington and Oregon. Secondly, experiments only recently have demonstrated the possibility of establishing paper mills in the southeastern states making use of pine. Whether the southern devel- opment actually will be practical is yet to be proved, but in the mean time efforts will be devoted to such tests and these experiments natur-
