ROmp for Western Five.
For while it appeared as if the
Western-Anacostia game would pro-
duce better basket ball than the
evenings opener, but the Red Raid
ers ran wild in the last half to re-
move all competition and wind up
as 40-25 victors. The press and the
boy keeping the scereboard cred
tied Anacostia with 26 points, but
Official Scorer Pete English and
both managers checked Anacostia's
total at Is, so that's what it is in
our book.
After Larry Hagan's long shot re-
duced Westerns margin to 80 mid
way in the first quarter, Anacostia
never again was within three points
of the winners. At intermission it
was 1873 and a free scoring third
quarter ran the count to 1918.
Anacostia excelled it's conqueror
only in the matter of foul tosses,
making good on II of 16 chances,
while Western sank only out of II.

To Rest His Readers
BY JOHN LARDNER,


NEW YORK, Feb. l7.-Before we
turn the bow of the lugger south for
. brief vacation (any one who says
vacation from what?" will be penal
ized is yards, we would like to set
down a few random notes collected
on the tail of an old white shirt
Bimelech, the Bradley 3-year-old,
will open at no better than to 2 in
most of the Kentucky Derby future
books. After peering at Godoy VS..
Louis, James j. Johnston, the boy
bandit, still thinks he has the best
South American heavyweight now
doing business in this country.
James South American is Valentin
.Campolo, as tall as an Ande and
twice as fast. Tommy Shortell, the
judge who voted for Godoy in that
title fight, had just been sprung
from a six-month stay in hospital.
The fight brought the usual rumors
of a Elk" which are denied by all
parties and probably with truth.
Godoy's "return-match" value is
hardly worth the risk of scandal.
Our hunch for the $50, 900 Widener
at Hialeah next month is The Chief.
And for the 100000 Santa Anita
Handicap, Kayak II to repeat. After
which the horse will be entitled to
walk into any court of law and get
his name changed to Kayak First.
A nice Derby long shot is Star
Chance. Though how this llama,
or any other, is going to beat Bime-
lech we do not by any means see.

not repeated by Hopson. Insull had raised money by borrowing bank money and pledging the se- curities of his operating compa- nies. When the depression hit and Insults tower began to totter, the banks stepped in and pulled the props out from under 1t by fore- closing on the operating compa- nies. That left no source of reye- nue to support the superstruc- ture. The thousands of stockhold- CTS whose money had been in- vested in the superstructure were left with little but fond memories.
 Hopson's course was different He kept his operating companies free of bank loans excepting about $20,00O00O, a trifling sum for such 8 huge system. Instead he pooled the controlling stocks of the operating companies by an intricate network of holding com panieS. A corporate mechanism as complicated as a terminal switch yard channeled all the control into two mainline holding com panies. These two then issued stocks and securities-but not to the banks They were floated among an estimated 100000 in- vestors.

 SEC claims to have closed many Of those drains. The re- ceivership court, in it's discretion, may cut off any that may remain.
 Better times, fewer drains, and sterner administration, the SEC believes, will bring earnings that will put new life into the out- standing debentures and stocks. Bank loans may be paid off first, deventure payments next, and payments to stock investors third. Perhaps even ahead of all earn- ings will be used to improve any weakened operating companies. Whats left, if any, may go to Hopson and Mange interests. Their own, securities come last.

 Jefferson Smith, a small-town youth who is strongly imbued with American ideals, suddenly finds himself thrust into the seats of the mighty Somewhat of a local hero, he is appointed to fill an unexpired term in the United States Senate. Jeff takes his ap- pointment with the greatest seri- ousness. He doesn't know that the state political machine, intent upon . a piece of corrupt legislation, is sending him to Washington be- cause they consider him their most likely dupe. MT. Smith-Stewart- gradually learns how he is being used. Prompted by his own best instincts and Miss Arthur, his sec retary, he revolts.
 How, and with what exciting con- sequences, is the core of the story and events sweep to a climax no audience will ever forget.
 James Stewart, in the longest and most outstanding role in his career, is superb. No whit behind him is Miss Arthur as a cynical Washington-wise young lady who at first scoffs at the young Sena- tor and is antagonistic to him. Claude Rains, expertly cast as MT Smiths" senior colleague, is deeply moving as man who must com promise his highest ideals. Thomas Mitchell is seen as a newspaper man who has a strong, unexpressed devotion for Miss Arthur.
 Others in the sensational cast include Edward Arnold as bluff, genial political boss who hardens when MT.

ELKS AND PAROCHIALS BOTH WIN FROM DOUGLAS SCHOOL
 Douglas High basketeers were good last night but just not quite good enough to wallop the Elks' team of Juneau and an interesting game for the spectators ended 32 points for them and 39 for the yis- itors.
 As the game opened the scoring was a dual proposition until the first quarter ended before the High Schoolers could match the Elks' last
