Big Choice Says
In Stretch, Is
Dismal Third
Little Beuns Races
By to Win; Ponty
Runs Second
By the A sociated Press.

MIAMI, Fla, March 22.-The
Kentucky Derby stock of Warren
Wright's Whirlaway sank to a new
low today when the 1910 juvenile
champion failed badly in the stretch
and finished third in a 6-furlong
test race at Tropical Park.
Mrs. l.. Palladino's Little Beans,
a speedy Derby eligible from New
England, scored by a length in the
81 200 Miami Springs purse, Mrs. F.
Scully's Ponty taking second place
by half length over Whirlaway
Despite the uncertainty that had
clouded Whirlaway's racing future
after he popped a splint in mid
February, the Calumet Farms chest
nut colt went to the post a heavy
favorite at 85 cents to 81.
Whirlaway Flattens Out.
But the great stretch charge that
had won numerous races for Whirl-
away was not forthcoming. Jockey
Basil James kept him we'll in the
running until after the field turned
for home.
Then Little Beans simply ran
away from Whirlaway, which fat
tened out dismally. Ponty shot past
the Wright colt in the final fur
long, but was unable to catch Little
Beans.
Little Beans, winner of five of his
eight starts and S14,755 as a juven-
lie, showed promising speed in his
first 1941 test. Capably ridden by
Don Meade. he raced the 6 furlongs
over a muddy track in 1:1145.
Can't Account for Failure.
Little Beans returned $780, 81
and $3.50 for 50 across the board
and Ponty paid s4.30 and $3.50. The
show price on Whirlaway was 50 80.
Whirlaways hackers were unable
to account for his failure. Whether
he had not fully recovered from his
leg injury or the colt had simply
lost his former gameness and stay
ing power could not be determined.

MONTGOMERY
III SIDELIGHTS
By ELSIE WHITE HAINEs

To go on with our story of
Greenwood" 49, the main interest
in this old house, lies in the oripi-
nal stone building in the rear wing,
which you will remember, we told
you last week, was on the prop
erty when the first Thomas Davis
purchased the land from Snowden
Manor in 1921.
There are two rooms on the first
floor : one evidently used for both
kitchen and living room - behind
a wide brick hearth worn by gen.
erations of feet = is an immense
square fireplace, capped by a
rough hewn, oaken head block.
Upstairs, the original log raft
ers are in good condition, and the
oddly fashioned triple windows in
each gable still hold some of the
original glass = so they tell us =
we would not know!
Up the outside of the rear wall
runs large telescope" chimney
of unusual design, containing an
outside fireplace L this chimney
is built in three graduated sections,
the largest is six by nine feet at
the base.
The house is well supplied with
chimneys - for every one of the
later built rooms Of this mansion
had its fireplace, and they also had
bells in them to summon the SER
wants = these things were pointed
out to us when we, recently visited
Mrs. Wilbur Nash, Jr., who is now
mistress of the historic old place.
The original rooms show that
the first generation of the Davis
family lived very differently from
the later generations = their for
tunes grew until in 1875 we find
Allen Bowie Davis the owner of
quite little village = with grist
mill, sawmill, foundry, and the ir.-
evitable, blacksmith shop and
wheelwright shop = he had even
reached into Howard County and
owned Roxbury Mills = which had
been part of Roxbury Hall!
We are going to devote whole
column to Allen Bowie Davis some
time soon = want to visit the old
home in Baltimore first. AS a very
small child we remember an old
colored man who used to visit
father and tell US about the days

mits are required from producers,

Authority to revoke such permits
is given with the right to appeal to
the Courts. The producer is ex-
empt from fees; professors (pas-
teurizers, etc., pay $40 per year,
distributors So per year. Bobtail-
ers dealers who sell or distribute
milk which they obtain from a pro

All dealers are required to make
application for permits unless they
already hold same, and are author
lied to continue in business until
their applications have been re-
jected by the Health authority. Ex-
ceptions are made in the case Of
the producers whose milk is sold
interstate. The law requires the
sale of pasteurized milk and pas
teurized milk products in the orr
ginal container; prevents dripping,
pouring by hand, etc. It prohibits
the sale of unwholesome milk; and
the reuse of milk containers by
others than the owner.

The State Health Department i

The State Health Department Is
authorized to make regulations
pertaining to the production, pro-
cessing, storing and selling of milk
and milk products. Cities of over
100000 population are authorized
to enforce the law in their own
city and to collect the fees, making
reports to the city comptroller.
The regulations established re-
lirements for the production, pas
teurization and handling of milk
and are essentially similar to those
which prevailed under the old law.
One important change requires
that where bulk sales of milk are
made in large containers, gallons,
ETC., the containers must be cleaned
and sterilized at the place selling
the milk and satisfactory equip
ment must be provided for such OPP
