aboard Zev in 1923, came back two
years later to win with Flying Ebony
and guided the great Gallant Fox
to victory in 1890 He had 122 win

Turner Needs Benefits Worse
Than Others After Cocoa Kid
Whips Sutko in FIopperoo

Joe Turner has cut in a lot of
worthy and some not-so-worthy
causes on his boxing and wrestling
shows, but he heard a brand-new
patter last night after count
ing a paitry 1893 gate for the
Cocoa Kid-Joey Sutka f1opperoo.
He is getting in on the ground
floor of something real good this
time, a benefit for mendicant mu-
sicians, the National Symphony Or
chestra.
The scheme was proposed by
Thomas P. Morgan, jr., and Tur-
ner took it without batting an eye
lash. 1t will b. staged sometime
this summer at Griffth Stadium on
date to be okayed by Mike ia
cobs. New York promoter. The
commission will include a request
for a date when it writes to Jacobs
this week for passes to his next
show.
All Kinds of Benefits.
While somewhat radical from a
conservative point Of view. the plan
has its merits. For instance. Clark
Griffith could set aside a portion of
the Mats opening game receipts to
help pay the Redskins training ex-
penSes. The steamfitters could
throw a fancy dress shindig for
the bricklsyerS and the +enriS
stars could stage a tournament for
the golf association. Simple, isn't 1t?

years. Ever since I left high school I've been listening to people cry about their aches and moan about their bills. So came to the city to find new job.
 And you'll probably find one - working for a doctor again" The young man surveyed her closely. You shouldn't have much trouble finding a spot Nice clothes, good style. Attractive face. Always did like auburn hair, green eyes. With those teeth you could advertise for dentist :"
 She didn't know whether to be angry or amused. He was apprais- ing her, enumerating her assets, just as he would sell an Ace-High card table.
 ". Nice figure. You could model, if you want to. Now tell us your story, with or without names, as you prefer. What do you really want to do?'
 T don't want to be a secretary receptionist.
 "okay. That's out. What is the favorite ambition?"
 T don't want to work at all" she answered truthfully. I've worked ever since can remem- Der. Dad wasn't much good, I guess, and Mother went home to her family. She would have done better to have stayed with Dad, because she spent the rest of her life trying to make living for herself and little Kay. Her brother helped little, mostly by finding new customers for her to sew for, and housework and odd jobs for me.
 When Mother died, Uncle Ralph got this job in the doctors office for me. I lived with him and Aunt Susan and four cousins. Everything I earned went for room and board. I had to help around the house, too. It wasn't much fun"
 So you finally told him of and started out on your own, and now the going's tough" Ted concluded for her. Why did you pick on this town? Why not try New York, Chicago? What brought you here?"
 I'm looking for my Dad = Tim Donovan, the inventor. Ever hear of him?"
 Nope. What does he inventP"
 T don't know. He just invents That's why Mother left him. None of his inventions ever paid any money, but he wouldn't quit. Mothers last letter from him came from here. He wanted her to come back. His big invention was sure to succeed. He was planning to build & factory here. Mother wrote that we would come back after the invention started paying. We never heard from him after that"
 But Ted wasn't listening. Tim Donovan Donovan I've seen that name somewhere |" He picked mp his newspaper, scanned the classified pages again.
 And your name s Kay Dono- van? Kay for Kate, not Rather ine?"
 The girl was amazed. ''Why, yes. How did you know2"

 There - take look ct that, Katie Donovan"

 The dark-eyed girl circled the help wanted ad with a heavy, black line. Similar circles were scattered over the page. She read on, poised her pencil, changed her mind, then abruptly folded the newspaper.
 That's enough to keep me walk ing until midnight" she said. half aloud. And probably every single job will be taken just five minutes before I get there"
 You talking to me, Miss?"
 She had not noticed the young man at the far end of the park bench.
 No. Oh, mol" She could feel her cheeks color; she knew her neck was crimson. Why should she blush because a stranger asked a civil question? She opened the paper again, stared at it without seeing words.
 She should have felt then, she told herself, clicking down the sidewalk with high heels tapping out message that would put this young man in his place. But she didn't want to put him in his place. For six days her entire conversation had consisted of a few greetings from the clerk at her hotel and the brainless batter of a luncheon hasher.
 The young man had made no attempt to follow up his initial opening. Secretly, she almost wished that he would. He was paying no attention to her. She noted he was reading the classi- fled pages, too.
 He was a nice looknig fellow - not a park bench loafer. Some youngster, just out of college, looking for his first job. Possibly football player. she decided, cycling him from the protection of the paper. Well, he should have no trouble finding job - at least not as much trouble as she was having.
 That was the bad part about leaving home and coming to the city on quick decision, without planning it all out months in ad- vance. You just got tired of be- ing secretary receptionist book keeper office assistant cleaning maid for 8 doctor, you had all you could stand of your cousins, your unce and your aunt, you were completely fed up with routine small-town existence, and before anyone could stop you or even argue you out of the idea, you were packed and on your way - to a park bench.
 The boy at the end of the bench looked up, caught her staring at him, grinned.
 Any luck? I see you're read ing want-ads, too"
 The grin was infectious. There was no point in squelching him. Maybe the warm summer sun, and those lazy clouds sailing across the blue were influencing her. Surely Uncle Ralph would never approve. Darn Uncle Ralphl

| Defense Prevents
Rail Enthusiasts
| Roundhouse Visit

The washington Division of the
Railroad Enthusiasts. the members
of which heretofore have delighted
in excursions to railroad yards and
roundhouses, today were wondering
whether a national defense precau-
ton would force them to restrict
pursuit of their hobby to talking and
reading about trains.
For weeks the devotees of the iron
horse had been looking forward to
this afternoon and a visit to the
Alexandria (Va) roundhouse of the
Southern Railway. Yesterday, how
ever, word was received that the
jaunt would have to be Cancelled,
according to E. L. Thompson, head
of the local group, which is a unit
of a national organization of rail-
road fans.
The blow came as the result of a
suggestion sent members of the As
sociation of American Railroads last
week by John j. Pelley, president of
the association. In line with the
general tightening up of protection
arrangements for the Nations trans
portation systems, railroads should
bar visitors from yards and shops,
Mr.. Pelley recommended.
An official of the association ex-
planned today that the suggestion
was designed primarily to end the
practice of allowing representatives
of foreign railroads every courtesy"
in inspecting facilities of American
roads, but probably also would be
applied to those who had a hobby
lists interest in the plants by mem
bers Of the association.

only five will be played against
Baltimore and Atlantic City, against
whom the Eagles have split even.
Washington will dispose of two of
its remaining six road games tonight
