the way down the stretch.
Had Arcaro chosen Shut Out in
place of Devil Diver he would have
performed one of the greatest
feats in sports history. He would
have gone down in the same
bracket with Earl Sande and Isaac
Murphy, both of whom made q
successful run for the roses three
times.
But life goes in this sort of
trend. What is one mans mis-
fortune may pyramid into an
others success. So it was with
Wayne Wright.
1t was in 1886 that Wright rode
the Inflated Brevity, hot derby
Ifavorite, and finished second to
Bold Venture, 20-1 shot.
So disappointed was Wright that
he cried openly in the dressing
room after the race. Brevity, you
will recall, was bumped all over
the place. The golden fleece had
been jerked away by cruel fates.

Auto Traffic
Gains Despite
Curb on Sales
Rationing of Cars
And Tires Offset by
Newcomers in CITY

Despite tire and automobile ra-
tioning and curtailment of gaSo-
line supplies in the East, the volume
Of traffic in the District and sur
rounding territory since last year
has increased, Capt. H. c. White
hurst, District highway director,
said yesterday.
Capt. Whitehurst based this OBJ
servation on checks made by means
of traffic counters at key points.
Comparing current tabulations with
checks made in April, 1941, the
highway director said that at sew
eral points, substantial increases,
rather than decreases, were noted.
This seems to be true in urban
areas throughout the country, espe-
cially In cities where there's a con-
centration of war work" he said.
Decrease in Rural Areas.
"It seems clear" he continued,
that so far, at least, there has been
no material drop in traffic in urban
areas, although there has been a
decided decrease In automobile
travel in rural areas"
This would indicate, ne said, that
motorists are still using their cars
as much as ever for short trips, but
are cutting out the long trips.
Capt. Whitehurst said 1t was still
conjectural how much the volume
of traffic will be reduced when the
gasoline card-rationing program
goes into effect May IS.
Although many District motorists
undoubtedly have been forced to
take their cars out Of circulation
because Of the tire and automobile
rationing programs, the resultant
reduction in traffic has been more
than Offset by the great influx of
war workers with autos, 1t was said.
Counts Reveal Increase.
Traffic counts made this month
by the Highway Department and
the Department of Vehicles and
Traffic showed that at Arlington
Memorial Bridge the traffic volume
had increased 7.3 per cent since
the corresponding month of 1e41
A 27 per cent increase was noted
at Georgia avenue, just north of
the B. & o. viaduct, and at Con-
necticut avenue south of Devon
shire place, there was a rise of l.9
per cent.

His son, Lawrence Cameron

he was three days old his name
was put on the masthead of the

old.
While Mr.. Heiser is glad" that
a crosstown bus route has been
established over the Porter street
route, he is still strongly in favor
