Dear Red-Pop Kurtsinger's wild

off his vest when his boy Charley
came gallOping down to the wire
atop the winner. The beauty and
chivalry of Kaintucky were so elat-
ed that they only lacked up prices

missed the first train out, but
Well, Red, that's why an admiring
friend who hasn't seen you for a
long while is writing this letter. It
was swell Derby, that one so cas-
lily won by War Admiral, but there
was something missing. That was
you, Pop. All the while that little
brown colt-really he's little only as
compared to such big red giants
as yourself-was shaking those four
feet to make every post winning
one I kept whispering to myself.
What I was saying was, Gee, but
I wish his old man could see him

Mary Livingstone, who has played
such a big part in the success Of
the Jack Benny radio programs, Is
thinking very seriously Of taking
part in a Paramount picture starring
Buddy Rogers and Shirley Ross. 1t
is a serious decision, because it en-
tails having an operation on her
nose and Mary does not like hos
pitals or ether or knives or inactivi-
ty or even breathing through her
mouth.
Innumerable fans have asked me
if the impressive mansion and estate
which Fredric March presents to
Janet Gaynor in the course OF the
plot of "a Star Is Born" was es-
pecially built for the picture. Others
think they recognize it as the house
once occupied by Barbara Stanwyck,
when she was married to Frank
Fay. Neither theory is correct. The
house belongs to Los Angeles real
estate dealer and was merely rented
by the Selznick-International COM
pany for two days.

P. Jay Donohue usually is given
credit for nicknaming the Giants.
The name came into being in the
summer of 1885, when Chicago and
New York were fighting for the
championship, and was meant as a
tribute to sterling playing deeds
rather than to the size of the play
ers. The Pirates were so named
in 1888 when-in an attempt to beat
the inter-league rules of that day
the Athletics failed to protect prop
erly their rights to Louis Bierbauer,
star second baseman. This made
Bierbauer a free agent, and he was
quickly persuaded to sign with Pitts
burgh. 1t was a perfectly regular
procedure under the existing rules
and served the Philadelphia club
right. But at the time there was
high excitement and such wide
spread acrimony that one Philadel-
phia writer referred to Pittsburgh's
part in the transaction as IAN act
of piracy on the baseball seas"
The Pirates are such nice, quiet
fellas that nobody wants to beat
them-and nobody will unless Ma
tional league managers stop this
spell Of sweetness and light and
bear down on the Pittsburghers.

War, didn't he?" Actually they're
a little wrong on that, though, Red,
If they're speaking Of mere outward
appearances while the kids stand
ing in his stall. Maybe-because of
what I hear about the way you've
been spending your last fifteen
years you're sort of like the old
woman in the shoe and get mixed
up about the younger ones now and
then-rd better set you right about
him. =
War Admiral, this kid of yours,
has a nice easy stride, pretty close
knit conformation and may be a
trifie light in back. Carries his head
like you but otherwise he takes after
his mammy's family in looks. His
nanny, you may have to be re-
minded, was a little mare named
Brushup and her daddy was Sweep.
Once out on the track, though, you
can't miss him as a Man O. War.
Walks up to the barrier just like
you did, kind of proud and disdainful
and wondering at the nerve of those
other gee gees even thinking they
could run along with him for money,
marbles or the next peck of oats.
Just like you he's full Of pep and
vinegar at the barrier, too, but
wouldn't take too seriously those
stories you may read about him be-
ing a bad actor there. Actually
what happened there was that your
kid and Pop Kurtsinger's boy, Char
ley, were giving the first evidence
of that perfect teamwork which won
them the race in the second best
time in Derby history.
What Charley and your kid really
were doing at the post when every
body thought they were cutting up
was thinking and acting. They were
wheeling in and out of their stall
because they wanted to be on their
toes when the break came. If they'd
stood there nice and fiatfooted may
be it would have looked nice in
book of manners but where would
they have been when the wire went
up? Probably still standing there,
Ell Red? Or maybe piled up over
the fence in the infeld.
So Charley and your kid were put
ting on the act. They figured that
If they were little tough lining up
the starter'd make his move as soon
as he got them in line for once.
That's what happened and from
then on it was just like as if you
were doing it yourself, Red. Heel
fiy, who's always mite impatient
at the start, maybe had head lead
for the first hundred yards. After
that yonr kid was never in trouble.
Maybe Kurtsinger did go to bat on
him once, turning into the straight
away, but it wasn't even necessary.
Pompoon, who looked like a much
better horse than he did in the Wood
Memorial, was challenging then, but
even if this son of Pompey hadn't
been carried wide it wouldn't have
made much difference. Your kid
only won by two lengths but he
won well in hand and he could have
made it six.
Won at good price, too, Red
even considering the field of twenty
was one Of the best ever to start in
Kentucky. Maybe $5.4O winners
seem like long shots to you with
your record, but 8 to SIS not pea
nuts.

 JUNEAU, March 20, - Urg- ing economy in considering the costs in connection with Social Security, and recommending that no other legislation be consider ed until the social security has been disposed of, Governor Troy sent his message to the extraor- dinary session of the Legislature Friday, after it had formally been convened by Secretary of Alaska Griffin.
 The officers of both houses were reelected, as well as at taches.
 The Governors message said, that while participation in the social security act must be ade- quate, he urged the legislature to keep the cost as low as poss- ible, compatible with full partic- ipation, with the suggestion that no minimum amount for old age allowance be set forth in the law to be made, so that the board, which is to have individual char ge of the administration of the act, may have full leeway to meet each case according to its circum stances and needs.

Every Year.
BY PHILANDER JOHNSON,

Every Year.
Every year the snowfakes futter, then
the violets appear;
Roses later on, and beans and cabbage
will draw near;
Hot waves and mosquitoes till the frosty
nights are clear
Every year.
Every year the gentle promise of new
happiness we hear,
Then threat of discomfort will hover
IN the atmosphere;
Sometimes the world is hopeful and
sometimes it stops to sneer.
Every year.
We talk about the taxes and about base
ball and beer,
And the way that women dress we VOW
is getting still more queer;
We declare that what we buy is most
unreasonably dear.
Every year.
We sing the same old tunes with vary
ing words to charm the ear;
The same old stories move us to a smile
or to tear;
Yes, we like this old world with It's sor
rowing or cheer.

more than he could tolerate. He pre-
ferred to quit.
Doubtless the incident is symptomatic
of the spirit of resistance which grad
ually is developing among musicians.
They understand the danger of COM
promise with the so-called modernists.
1t is part of their esthetic philosophy
that it is just as perilous to try to mix
beauty and intentional ugliness as it is
to attempt to combine pure air and carbon
monoxide. The savage rhythm of the
rhumba, for example, is poison. Mr.
Iturbi risked the wrath of theoretical
million to stop the mischief.
1t is to be hoped that other listeners
will take the trouble to commend him
for his courage. The followers of Tin
Pan Alley are articulate and militant,
and 1t is indicated that they will be
loud in their criticism. For the benefit
of the operators of the networks the
public which deplores popular music"
should be equally prompt to take its pen
in hand.
