the practice of Bank Mites had been
abandoned.
So, on Wednesday, upon advices of
the States Attorney, the Arcade
Theatre, under the management of
Messrs. Lawson & Maddrix, discon-
tinued the practice of giving away
cash which, if the person whose name
was called was present at the time,
amounting to as much as $100. Judge
Crockett claimed the theatres were OPP
Grating in fragrant violation of the
law.
The same advice was passed on to
the managers of the Lee Theatre here,
Messrs. Carson and Green. Mr..
Green stated that the Lee would give
no more prizes, and that even bicy-
Gle that was to be given away to
some lucky boy or girl this coming
week could not be awarded, according
to the States Attorney. 1--WE want
to abide by the law, Mr.. Green said;
'stherefore, we'll just not be able to
do as we had planned"
Sometime ago, The Post was mott

Mites, and eliminated Bank Mite no

She got no further, for with a
queer, gasping sound, Laurel slumped
in a dead faint.
Laurel was revived with brandy.
Jean, shaken herself, and apprehen-
sive of further catastrophe if Gaby
should say more to her, insisted:

Weather Is Ideal.
In contrast to the first two Derb,
races sponsored by The Star and
American Legion in corporation
with the Washington Chevrolet
Dealers Association, the weather
was perfect. In 1898 the rain poured
down all day, and last year the
Massachusetts, avenue course ir
Northwest Washington was baked
under a scorching sun.
Every one OF the 205 miniature
cars at the track was built for nj
more than $40 each. The new
champions car cost $s75, with Il
going for wheels. Young Jennings
worked on his car for months.
His mother, Mrs. Marion P
Wormhoudt, said Bill had been la.
boring over his model racer since
Christmas. -
AS he sped down the hill Bill wa.
almost out of sight, even though his
racer was extremely low slung. Many
OF his best hints on construction
he said, came from last years cham
pion, who passed on to him his ex.
periences and knowledge gained al
Akron last year.
Young Cederstrand was on hand
to see his friend take his place al

Derby car builders. AS Bill tipped
across the finish line. Carl jumped
up and down with glee. q
Races Broadcast.
In a radio broadcast yesterday
with Norman Rocca, the 1888 win.
ner, Carl had predicted that Bill
and his white racer, Stuff, woulc
come out on top, and when hi.
friend outlasted the field, no one
was more elated than the former
champion.
The races were broadcast ovel
Station WMAL with Bill Coyle, ra.
dio director of The Star, and Ray
Michael, N. B. c. commentator al
the microphones. Tents to house
workers at the start and finish line
were supplied by the National Guarc
of the District, and erected by vol
unteer members of the Guard unit.
Derby officials had the private
property paralleling the course pro-
tected by lengths of snow fence
supplied through the cooperation
of the Maryland State Roads Com
mission, and special detail of 16C
police under the supervision of In
spector Maurice Collins was on hand
to handle the throng of spectators.
Zeb r. Hamilton, Americanism
officer for the District Department
OF the American Legion, was direc-
tor of the 1910 Derby and the major
part Of the work was handled by
volunteer committees from the vari-
Gus Legion posts.
The entire Derby was run without
an accident to contestants. Several
times, the young drivers appeared to
be losing control, but in the majority
of instances they wheeled manfully
and brought their balky racers under
control. In a few instances they
skidded sharply around and once
or twice threw rubber tires, but
always without causing excessive
damage to their tiny cars.

Jenerd School Not
Approved By State

The state department of educa-
ton has served notice that the
Jenera school would not be approved
next year. Jenera school is one of a
number of one-room schools in the
state with small enrolment that the
state department is not approving
this year, it was explained.
Originally the school was an
eight-grade school with two teach
ers. Four years ago, it was taken
into the Rawson district and with
the county's system of six grades in
the high school, the Jenera school
was reduced to six grades, with two
teachers for each of the three grades.
Last year the state department re-
fused to approve two teachers for
the six grades, because of the small
enrolment, and decreased the $4,000
allotted from the school foundation
fund, to S1.150, E. E. Ray, county
superintendent of schools said. The
fifth and sixth grades were then
transferred to Rawson and one
teacher was employed for the re-
naming four grades.
Only II pupils were enrolled in
the four grades.
