FAMOUS FENCING
 COACH VISITS Y
Grasson of Yale Lauds Work of Local Group,
 Taking Swordsmanship

The fencers at the Y. M. 0. A. had the unexpected pleasure Of see. ing and hearing one of the greatest men In the field of fencing in the country today. Jules Grasson, who is now coaching at Yale, hs the ability to build champion fencer at his fingertps. He teaches fencing that one could not possibly help with so strong Q feeling for the art feeling the warmth and beauty of the sport. He exercised the fencers n Q group showing them many ways to develop speed and precision. The group was well in accord with his theory that fencing should be held on narrower mats and smaller pace rther than being spread over more and more territory as time goes on. The group also took great deal of pleasure in being able to explain to the coach that they have one of the largest Y. M. o. A. fencing organizations in the state. Following an active workout, MT. Grasson gave e short talk nd made his de- Henry" cmfwyp shrdlu shrdulmb parture after promising that in the near future he would try his best to bring Q few members of the Yale team to Waterbury to perform for the group in some exhibition work. The fencing class now exceeds thirty people and Coach Ken Smaller is of the opinion, due to the fact that new members are coming in fast. that 1t will be necessary after ac- cepting a few more members to be. gin placing restriction on member ships. Tn answer to repeated ques- tions concerning the financial re- quirements, fencing instruction Is given free to all members of the Y. M. 0. A.
 MT. Smaller was praised by 0ras- son for the effort that he has put into the instruction of the club and told to continue the good work.

Medford. Mass, April T.-(UP)-- At 80 years old, I'm making my su- preme effort this year to win the Boston A. A. marathon April 19. It will have to be this year or never.
 I had the stun to win last year but wasn't quite sure of myself. However, I finished sixth after wind- ing up 10th to 22nd in seven pre- vious attempts. You may be sure won't make the same mistakes again this Patriots Day.
 If the day comes up hot, my chances will be better. Johnny Kel- ley of Arlington will be the man to beat if 1t Is Q cool day. Paul Donate of Boston will be up in front with the leaders.
 When I first tried the B. A. A, course in 1881, finished 18th. My poorest showing was in 1883 when was 22nd. Until last year my best performance was 10th in 1899.
 My training for this years race has been more strenuous and thor ough than ever before.
 At present I am at 130 pounds, c good weight for my heigth of five feet, six inches. I am employed as a mechanic by Q chain store grocery company.

Turkish Foreign Policy
Declared UNCHANGED

ISTANBUL, March IS (P.-Tur-

Ikdam insisted today.
After the occupation of Bulgaria,

Fuehrer's special note to our Presi-
dent, Turkeys position seems to in
terest every one" Ikdam said. Our
position remains the same"
THE Eden and Dill visit showed
Turkeys relations remained the
same-that we will always be loyal
to our Allies Ikdam continued.
"As for Hitlers special communica-
ton, this should not be considered
more than sign of politeness."
No official statement has been
made yet, but observers believed it
probable that President Ismet
Inonu's reply had been sent to the
Turkey Ambassador at Berlin for
delivery.
Premier Refik Saydam is expected
to address the National Assembly
March 10 and he may discuss for
eign affairs.
AS new indication of the coun-
trys defense measures, the news
paper Vakit said 200 parachutists
would make test landing tomor-
row at an undiSclosed point beside
the strategic Bosporus, the Black
Sea end of the passage to and from

a divorce today to Mrs. James j

former Betty Compton filed a new

Walker did not appear in court
at either of the hearings and did
not oppose the petition.
Judge Gomez handed down the
final divorce decree without COM

today when the Duce is supposed to

Whether MuSSolini actually can

rocked back upon its heels, is the
talk of the Greek cafes tonight.
If Greek communicates are to be
believed-and a good-sized backlog

the Duce's efforts as commander
are praiseworthy in the sense that

BERLIN, March 15-DNB, official

arrived in Sofia, Bulgaria, yesterday
enroute to Germany with a hand
written message from Turkeys pres

A message from Hitler was de-

Inonu at Ankara by a 5-man COM
mission March 4. Qualified sources
said that the note declared the
Nazis wished to look after Turkeys
interests and well-being."
Official quarters, however, said
the message would have little effect
on the pro-British policy of the
country,
