IF YOU CANNOT DANCE AND
TALK. LEAVE FLOOR
Isssssssssoess . .

Do you think it good manners
for a couple to practically stop
dancing on a crowded dance floor
in order to carry on a conversation
in which they are obviously very
much interested?
Answer: If two people can not
manage to dance and talk both at
the same time, then I certainly
think they should find a place of
the floor somewhere to finish their
conversation.

SHOWER AT HOME

Dear Mrs. Post: My sisters
friends have asked me to give a
shower party for her at my house,
since I have better space for hav-
ing parties. The shower is being
given because a baby is expected
soon. Since they have asked me
to give it, do you still think it
would be unsuitable for a member
of her family to do this?
Answer: If you two or three
who proposd this party will send
out the invitations on their cards,
the fact that the party will be in
your house is not important.

noon which was set by Joe
Sylvester at the half-mile Ravenna

believe the horse he was to pilot
in the sixth could beat the favorite
in fact, was positive about the
matter.
So on entering the paddock to
mount for the fifth race, Maher
called aside his employer, Jack
Joyner (who had made the six
riding engagements for him), and
revealed that the jockey listed to
ride the favorite in the last race
was willing to concede him the
mount, in hopes that he could win
the entire card. And would Joyner
please go and beg the owner Of
his mount to let him off, and get
some other Jockey?

Joyner argued rather heatedly,
StreSSing unfairneSs to the owner

Danny's scheduled mount would
beat the favorite, that the latter
was an overrated, unreliable big
clown and apt to run a poor race

PASS BOBS UP

PASS BOBS UP
With the Redskins out in front
to 0, an intercepted pass
changed the whole aspect of the
game and tossed a severe fright
into Redskin rooters.
Late in the second period, after
the Redskins had bilged 46 yards
to the Ram 6-yard line, only to
lose the ball on downs, Goddard
grabbed one Of Sammy Baugh'S
overheadS and ran some 80 yards
with the ball to Washington'S %.
In six plays, the Rams went
across the Redskins goal line. God.
gard carrying the ball five of the
six times. When Bob Snyder
goaled from placement for the
extra point, the Rams went into
a 7-6 lead which they held until
the midway point Of the third pc
riod when the Redskins scored
three points through the medium
of Riley Smiths 19-yard field
goal.
The Redskins moved 4S yards
to place the ball in position for
Smiths neat field goal, Battles
starting the 48-yard drive from
the Redskins 81 by slashing Cleve-
lands left tackle for 10 yards in
two tries. Battles lugged the ball
"A Of the 48 yards!
With the score 9 to Z in their
favor, the Redskins again went to
work on the Rams. After an ex-
change of punts, the Washington
team, with furious drive, moved
81 yards in IA plays for another
touchdown, Irwin starting the
Redskins off with a dash Of 80
yards as he broke off Cleveland's S
left tackle on a good, old-fashioned
slant play. Irwin gained 81 of the
ST yards through as brilliant a line
cracking exhibition as has been
flashed all season in the big league
of pro football. The scoring play
was a pip.
SOGO n LA GEbkAL
With the ball on the four.yard
line Of the Rams, Battles started
as If to smash into Cleveland's left
tackle. Riley Smith had run wide
Of the Washington right end. Just
as it appeared that Battles was
committed to a slant at right
tackle, he lateraled to Smith. Riley
caught the ball, eluded a would.
be tackler and dashed across the
Rams goal line.
For the remainder of the game
Cleveland did not have possession
of the ball outside the Rams IS,
yard line.
Washington cashed in on only
three of eight scoring chances, but
the Redskins, on those three occa.
sionS, looked very much like the
top team Of all football, so power
ful and furious were the offensive
charges Of the linemen and the
drive Of the backs.

BOX WEDNESDAY

National Guardsmen, defending
Washington Herald Golden Gloves
team boxing champions, today
loomed as a heavy favorite to sue
cessfully defend their title on the
card of IA bouts, eight senior and
six novice, scheduled for Turner's
Arena wednesday night at 8:15
o'clock.
In four Of the eight senior
events the Guards have qualified
four finalists, as against two each
for Terminal Y. M. c. A. and A.
B. and w. Terminals, their
closest rivals. "
In every instance, however, the
Guardsmen will be put to severe
test and must show championship
form to cop.
MAYO A TARTAR
In the 11s-pound class George
Pickerel, Of the Guards, faces
tartar in Gil Mayo. A. B. and w.
Terminal. Both are lightning fast
and busy boys who appear evenly
matched and a rousing scrap is
predicted from the opening bell.
In the 147-pound feature Of the
evening Bob Matthias, knockout
sensation Of the tournament, faces
the fight of his young life in com.
petition with Ell Brookman, Of
Chestnut Farms A. c., and must
| he at his best to win,
Bob Grimm, another highly
esteemed Guardsman, wages war
with tough Bobby Schwartz, Of
Alexandria Terminal, in the IT'S
pound finale. Schwartz, a fight
ing brother Of Alexandria's Baker
Boy" Billy Schwartz, packs q
punch in both gloves and is ex-
ceptionally rugged and is con-
ceded an excellent opportunity Of
defeating his fighting rival.
BRADY FAVORED
In the heavyweight division Jim
Brady, of Georgetown University,
looms a favorite to defeat Don
Stetson, of the Guards. Brady
last week eliminated via knockout
Harold Wesiberg, another Guards
man, and is hopeful Of duplicating
the stunt against StetSon.
In the event the Guardsmen re-
peat, much credit is due the per

Move to Acquit
Woman i'm Gable
Case is Refused

LOS ANGELES. April 21. up
Federal judge George Cosgrave
today denied a motion for a direct
ed verdict of acquittal in the case
of Mrs. Violet Wells Norton, charg-
ed with attempting to obtain money
from screen star Clark Gable by
representing he was the father OF
her child.
The jurist held that a showing
of intent was sufficient TO hold
Mrs. Norton for trial even though
actual fraud did not exist.
Defense attorneys contended in
the plea that the middle-aged
Canadian woman received no mon
ey from Gable and could not be
guilty OF fraud.
First witness of the day was Ted
Magee. editor of a film magazine,
who was called to testify that he
had received a letter from Mrs.
Norton offering to sell him the
story of her life with the man
who she believed to be Gable in
