Monkey Training
As a Hobby Becomes
FuII-time Occupation

LOUISVILLE, KY, Aug. Tin
this land of fine horses and num-
erous horse trainers, Col A. D.
Dawson stands apart. He trains
monkeys.
Twenty-Five years ago Dawson
trained one monkey "just for fun"
He found it SO fascinating that he
began what he describes as the
only monkey school in the United
States"
At one time, Dawson says, more
than 80 per cent of the performing
monkeys used by organ grinders in
the United States were trained at
the school-in his backyard. He
trains other small animals, too, but
he likes monkeys best.
Some facts Dawsons has learned
about monkevS.
They are "the most Jealous crea-
lures IN the world and should never
be trusted around children" The
best age for beginning the training

Rookie Sings
WoefuI Song

NEW YORK, Aug. 17.-Pity poor
Richard Alley Donald who doesn't
like his middle name.
Donald would rather be known
as Dick" But it was the Alley
handle that sports writers piled into
the records during the Yankee pitch
er's l2-game winning streak and
that's the name the public has
grasped. 1t probably will be hard
to shake.
It's tough enough, Atley-beg par
don-Dick explains, to be out there
trying to protect one-run lead
with the bases loaded. But to hear
a falsetto voice from the enemy
dugout in a honey dripping "Yoo
hoo, Atley!" is plain murderous.
A name like Alley, Donald claims,
is just what the Jockeys" ordered.
He has a point. Suppose some other
ball players were known by their
comparatively unknown but proper
names:
Chubby" Dean of the Philadel-
phia Athletics could be excused
for a wild pitch if someone let
loose with: You're looking lovely,
Lovill."
And Aloha, Aloysius" might send
shivers up and down the spines of
three ball-playing hobres. They're
John Aloysius Buddy Hassett, Bos-
ton Bees singing infielder; Aloysius
CAD Simmons of the same club, and
Aloysius B e ] m of the Chicago
White Sox.
Two of Donald's teammates should
be sympathetic. Sub-catcher Warren
Vincent Rosar sneaks by with Bud
dy" and First Baseman Ellsworth
Dahlgren gets Babe" a fine old
baseball moniker.
A few others escape smoothly.
There's Elburt Fletcher, Pittsburgh
Pirates pepper-pot who's always
"Elbie" Claiborne Henry Bryant,
Cubs pitcher, is CLAY" on the sports
pages and Garfield Hack, Cub in
fielder, is "Stan." Jerome Herman
Dizzy Dean doesn't have much
choice between his nickname and
the Mccoy.
But Mr.. Donald, who was Alley
for IL straight victories, probably
will be Alley for the rest of his
major league career.
Which is tough break for Dick"
Donald. LII
