Haines Quits As | M. IT. Crew Coach IA Years
By ERNEST BARCELLA

 Boston, May 17-CUP)-Hanging the Monday wash along the New England sports line:
 Resignation over the weekend of Bill Haines as M. I. T. crew coach depurives the collegiate world of one of the grand old figures in row. ing. ... Along with 85 year old Jim Ten Eyck of Syracuse, Bill was the last of the old former professional scullers coaching college oarsmen.
 Bill wrote "finis" to IA years of continuous service at Tech Satur- day after three of his crews fin- ished last in the quadrangular re- gatta on the Charles river. |. But Tech had its golden moments under the 68 year old Englishman during this IA years. At one time or another his crews outdiStanced every other eight in the nation .ex- cept Yale, Syracuse and Cornell.
 Great Effort
 Perhaps Techs greatest rowing achievement was the 1930 Pough- keepsie regatta. On that mem- orable occasion, M. I. T. led a nine boat field for two miles and finally finished third behind Cornell and Syracuse. It was Haines who lifted M. I. T. rowing out of the intromural class and put it on an collegiate basis. |. It will be a difficult task to Il the shoes of this Father of M. I. T. rowing"
 Meanwhile, up the Charles river a bit, young man from the west is doing a standout job with the Harvard fleet. In his first year at Cambridge, bespectacled Tom Bolles, the former Washington oarsman, has developed crew that has all the earmarks of greatness.
 They're booming the current Crimson eight as one of the great est sprint outfits ever developed at Harvard :. Whether that is so will be determined week from Sat- urday at Philadelphia when Har- yard matches sweeps with formid- able Navy.
 Mungo ''Mad?"
 Did Van Lingle Mungo, the Brooklyn fireball pitcher, take a sock at his teammate Tom Win sett in the lobby of a local hotel last night? Mungo lost 8 3-2 ver- dict to the Bees in Il innings yes- terday. .. Winsett helped the Bees by getting himself trapped between first and second in true daffinesS style after Woody English smacked an apparently good single to right in the 11th.
 Big Jeff Tesreau, the former man mountain of New York Giants hurlers, and now Dartmouth base- ball coach, has picked himself an all-Dartmouth nine. His selec- tions include Red Rolfe, current Tanks third sacker, and Ted Ol- son, Red Sox rookie pitcher, but omit Bell Breckinridge, who sub- sequently went up with the Phila- delphia Athletics. Tesreau ex- plains the Breckinridge omission by pointing out that Bill played only one season f& Dartmouth and add ing that Bill was the most sensa- tional college pitcher I have even Seen." ---.

Boston, May 17.-(UP)-Re- turn of Outfielder Frank Me- Gowan to the Buffalo club of the International League at his own request was announced yesterday by President Bob Quinn of the Boston Bees.

 In requesting that he be re- turned to Buffalo, McGOwan told Quinn he did not know when he would be able to get into condition, explaining to the Bees president he didn't wan him "tO pay for something that isn't worth the price," Final payment on McGOwan was due in June.
 McGowan said he would re- turn to his BranfOrd, Conn.,, home for 8 few days then go on to Buffalo. He added he would have to quit baseball if he failed to make the grade there.

Indianapolis, May 14.-Rex Mays, favorite in the 500-mile automo- bile race at the Indianapolis Speed way, May 31, won the pole position the last two years with qualifying speed of 12O miles an hour.
 The slim, 24-year-old Californian drove in the races at close to the same speed, but last year ran out of gas, and the year before broke a spring -shackle at the halfway mark.
 Mays had to stop racing for sev- eral weeks last season when he crashed at the Readville track in oBston, breaking his jaw and los ing some teeth.
 This year Mays will drive an Italian creation, one of two foreign cars in the grind.

RITES T0H0N0R
FOUNDER OF
" HOME

In a spacious. beautifully ap-
pointed, brick, Colonial building at
235 C st. N. E., which today houses
los young women employed at
meager salaries, Mrs. Franklin
d. Roosevelt and the Rt. Rev.
James E, Freeman, Episcopal
bishop of Washington, will join
with officials and friends OF the
Young Women's Christian Home
next Tuesday afternoon in pay
ing homage to the woman whose
philanthropic vision led to estab-
iishment of the project SO years
ago.
1t was in 1887 that Mrs. Mary
G. wilkinson, following the death
of her daughter, unselfishly turned
from her own grief and set aside
two rooms of her home for the
use of girls of good character and
small income.
Soon other social minded Wash
ington women joined with her and
Incorporated the movement that
has grown steadily, with the aid
of liberal donations, until it be-
came a self-Sustaining project and
moved into its extensive modern
home.
Gave S25O,OOO
The present four-story structure,
built around three sides OF a
clustered garden with fountain, is
the result of a $250,000 bequest
from Mrs. Flora Markward Thomp'
son, a life member of the organiza-
ton, who died in 1881. At her re-
quest, the present home was
named the Thompson-MarkWard
Memorial in memory of her huS-
band and her mother.
Although the present home ad'
heres to the idea of its founders,
to provide the best possible living
accommodations for women under
IS who are either employed at
small salary or seeking employ
ment, it closely resembles mod
ern college dormitory. except for
the absence of recreation facilities
A living room, equipped with
piano, and a book-lined library are
the only concessions in that di-
rection. But the three upper
floors are given over to perfectly
appointed bedrooms and baths. All
of the bedrooms are single rooms
with the exception of nine double
rooms, and are kept in order by
their occupants, except for one
day-a-week cleaning.
The first-floor dining room, with
its score of small tables, has day
light illumination on two sides.
There the roomers, who pay only
from $40 to $25 a month for room
and two meals daily, according to
income, wait on themselves, cafe
terra style. Other than a short
prayer and a hymn, which they
Join in at breakfast time, there
is no required form of ceremony
at any time.
Have Medical Aid
In addition there is a well-equip-
ped laundry room, where the girls
wash and launder their own
clothes. and a nursing wing, with
modern medical facilities.
Mrs. Bessie C. McDade, super
intendent of the home, is in real
ity a house mother, mingling with
the girls, sharing with them their
enthusiasts and their problems.
She enforces no rigid curfew regu-
lation or other discipline that
would lend the home the atmoS-
phere of an institution, and finds,
she says, that her roomers will al
ways play the game" squarely.
There is someone on duty at
the desk" inside the entrance
hallway, "a hours every day, to
insure that no girl, whose needs
come within the scope of the
founders plan. shall ever be
turned away.

European physicians have used dry apple powder In place oi fresh raw apple pulp because the apple powder Is available at all sea- sons.

The value of this exclusive apple diet for acute intestinal disturbances of young In. fants, children or adults, is ascribed to the pectin in apple. That 4 conjectural.
