 New York, April II = CU.P) - Out on the sandy soil of Aqueduct race track Sunny Jim Fitzsimmons is spending these chill spring rnorn- ings quietly scheming to fulfill Q prophecy he made early last sum- imer. At that time the sly old gen- tleman said Bold Irishman would be the colt to watch in 1041 and so far he hasn't shied away from the prediction.
 Sunny Jim has won the Kentucky Derby three times and he has won 1t with @ trio of the finest thor oughbreds America has produced. There was gallant Fox in 1880, Omaha in 1895 and Johnstown in 1889. All of them were characterized by @ single trait--rather mediocre as juveniles they didn't really start running until they turned three years old.
 Bold 1rishman fits right into the mold. Like Gallant Fox, he is a son of Sir Galahad III. Like Johnstown, he is a tall, husky fellow. And like all three of his predecessors, he is @ colt whose speed increases as the months roll along The dark bay youngster started 1e times in i940.
 A rangy colt, the Irishman was bred and is owned by Mrs. H. O. Phipps' Wheatley Stable. Marked as a conner before he ever reached the tracks, 1t was a long while before he justified the optimism. He went out four times before he broke his maiden at Saratoga and he tried five times again before he could score his second triumph at Bel- mont Park.
 But once under way, he gained momentum rapidly. He was second in the Champagne Stakes behind Monday Lunch, fourth in the Rem sen behind Harvard Square, second behind Stimady in the Arisley and then first in front of the Belmont Futurity winner, Our Boots, in the $30,000 Pimlico Futurity. The latter race was the one which made Bold Irlshman Q dreby threat.
 He took the track at once and ran in front all the way with healthy disregard for the heavy footing. A head in front of our boots at the stretch turn, he was still a nose in front at the finish after a rousing run all the way down the straightaway. The time of 1:40 4-5 for a mile and 1-16 was fast enough to prove he liked the distance.
 Sunny Jim found the colts leg filled after that race and he was retired for the remainder of the season. He is training at Aqueduct now and pointing for the Wood Memorial on April 26. His odds In the Derby Future book are 10-1 he also is eligible for the Preakness and Belmont Stake.

Thumbs Down for DOerr

Boston, April 1l-(UP) = Bobby Doerr, Boston Red Sox second base man. was reported enroute here to- day for treatment of an injured left thumb that may bench him for a month.
 Doerr was to arrive at 2:45 D. m. and be taken to the office of club physician pr. Thommy Richadrs for x-rays. The injury was suffered yesterday in the eighth inning of final game with the Cincinnati Reds when Ernie Lombardi slashed line drive that bounced and struck Doerr's thumb.

ISOPHOMORES TO BOLSTER CROSBY BASEBALL TEAM
GoIdsOn Hard to Replace; Season Opens April 20
 With Ansonia ....
BY ALAN RIEFE

Coach J. o. P. Manherz, Crosby mentor, has issued the call and many aspiring candidates have rec ported for baseball practice. Only three lettermen have returned which leaves the Ivy skipper with . man. sized job ahead of him. The three veterans returning are last years captain, left fielder Bud" 0codale, catcher Billy "Chief Bender and second baseman Art Fisher.
 The big thorn in Crosby,s chances is the absence of "Jaycee' 0oldson, the sterling sepia slabster. This po- tent armed sophomore last year picked up an even half-dozen vic. tories and his power at the platter will also be sorely missed. 0oldsoD has left school for good and Fran nie" Sugrue, last years second strini hurler will not play ball because h' is working.
 This state of affairs leaves the Crosby coach veritable Chinese puzzle to solve but let's not be toe, nasty in judging Crosby's chances. The freshman team last year was Q we'll balanced combine and may act as a needed stifnulant to this years varsity. ~,I 4 s1
 Hannon Out
 Joe Smith, shortstop for the fresh- men last year will probably guard that post for the varsity this season, taking over likeable Joe lannon's place who incidently was lost to this years squad through the age limit rule. Hannon will act as assistant to Coach Manherz this year. Ted Rob. rin, substitute infileder on the var. sity last year will probably hold down the hot corner with Dom Doyle do. ing the second string hindsnatch' ing. Cnter and right field along with the initial sack are wide open through graduation. It will take good man to fill the shoes of 'Fran- nie" McCleary, the jovial jotter, in centerfield for his four base wallops were Q much -needed hypoderrnic to Crosby's batting attack last season! Johnny Lynch, rlimble third base- man last season along with jolting Joe Margolis and Johnny Nowackie will also be absent from the scene.
 At this stage of the game Able Kelly, Joe Cavanaugh and Paul. Ryder seem to be the most promising of this years rookie crop in the hurling corps.
 The schedule released last week shows nine home games to be played and Ave away. Two games each will be played with Leavenworth and Wilby.

MISS BETZ PRODUCT OF
 GRIFFITH PARK COURTS

Miss Betz Is an A student, o good mixer and extremely popular with both the girls and the boys. She plans to teach physical ed.
 She was born in Dayton, O. but has lived in Los Angeles for Q num- Der of years. She is 8 product of the famous Griffith Park courts there In height she is five feet six. She weighs 127 pounds.
 Miss BetZ began playing tennis at 13.
 She does not like to be slowbalied. An impatient player until this win. ter, she lost confidence and resorted to slow -balling her self.
 Her forte is aggression, not 30 much from the net position, but from the base line where she has a good forcing backhand and Q hard-hit forehand which is now always re- liable.
 Miss Betz has the build and move- ments of an athlete. She has broad shoulders and freckled face to go with long golden flowing hair.
 She combines masculine co.ordin- ation with feminine allure in the right proportions.
 Pauline Betz would wear the ten- his crown well and would be Q ctaa- structive champion. "

CALIFORNIA MISS HAS
 AN IMAGINATIVE GAME

What Miss Tennant, who bought out Miss Marble and other stars, likes best about Miss Betg Is that the Los Angeles miss has an imagir- ative game which will keep womei1's tennis on the high plane to wh1ef Queen Alice returned 1t.
 "While Pauline had Q fine rec. ord last year, she was over-con. fident in the nationals" explains Teacher Tennant. "She will have q better picture of the situation this summer.
 Like all natural players, she took too many liberties with her best weapons made too many errors off her good forehand.
 "She has & powerful serve that disconcerts the girl on the other side of the net She smashes and volleys. She has rare steadiness with her overhead smash, and a magnificent backhand.
 "She is strong and possesses the ideal disposition"

Dorothy May Bundy, whom Miss Betz defeated 6-l, 10-l2, 6-2, to acquire the indoor crown at Brook" line, believes her west coast neigh- bor will scale the heights outdoors. Both attend Rollins College in Flor Ida. They were in the party that toured South America.
 "Pauline has the strokes, fight, physique and endurance" repeats Miss Bundy. "She could paly all day.

studied q transcript OF the hearing.
This might be done. but some off,
cials believe this to be an unde-
sirable practice and one that likely
would provoke a storm of protest.
AS an alternative, should there be
a delay In appointment of a COM
mission member. Col. McCoach
might convene the two hearings
and adjourn them to some future
date without taking any evidence.
This appeared to be the more likely
development.
Other Issues Pending.
Other important issues awaiting
either action or hearings before the
commission are:
Proposed establishment of cross.
town bus line, on which hearings
have been held; request by the
Washington Gas Light Co. for au-
thority to issue about $4,000, 900 ir
additional stock, portion of this
sum at this time: request by Six

President Expected
Soon 10 Fill One Post
On Utilities Board
Second Vacancy Leaves
Agency Unable to
Handle Business

Belief that President Roosevelt
soon will fill one of the two va
cancies on the Public Utilities Com
mission was voiced yesterday at the
District Building after a survey of
the commissions docket showed a
half dozen important issues await
action.
With the death Friday of Com
mission Chairman Riley E. Elgen,
the agency was left with only one
member, Engineer Commissioner
David McCoach. A third former
member, Richmond B. Keech, re-
signed effective last October 81, to
zecome corporation counsel of the
District. officials explained that
the commission would be unable to
issue any order or take any action
that required formal decision until
a second member is appointed and
qualified.
Two Hearings Scheduled.
Before Mr.. Elgen's death, two
hearings were scheduled. One is on
the petition of lower Connecticut
avenue businessmen and property
owners for return of Chevy Chase
buses to lower Connecticut avenue,
now routed through Twentieth
street NV. This is to be held
March II. Proposals by the Capt.
tai Transit Co. for changes in the
Takoma services, including a re-
quest for permission to charge a
10-cent cash fare on the Takoma
express buses, are to be argued
March 18.
Under the law, one or more men,
bers of the commission, or their
designated agents, may hold hear
ings and decision be rendered by
the agency after its members have

ing that the President may defer
appointment of successor to Mr..
Elgen long enough to give him and
his advisers time to look over the
field of possible candidates. AS to
a successor to Mr.. Keech on the COM
mission, the District Commissioners
Mr.. Elgen himself and others some
months ago suggested the naming
of Hinman D. Folsom, former assist
ant corporation counsel assigned to
utility matters. Since Mr.. Elgen's
death, there are reports of other
candidates whose friends have re-
newed pleas for appointments.

sThe II members of the first grad
uating class of the Training School

Stressing that he would be the
last to submit to RECOMMENDATION, the
bsshop said that nevertheless all
rnust be ready to serve in whatever
capacity their talents permit. He
called the need for service urgent"
in the face of world conditions.
Health Officer George c. Rutland
pointed out that the training the
young women had received was espe-
cially valuable in the light of ma
tonal defense, with large Army can
comments taking many private
nurses from service among civilians.
DR.. Rutland also said that prac-
tical nurses could be employed in
many homes that could not afford
a professional nurse. The members
of the class would be valuable from
public health standpoint, he
stated, because they could take care
