the current disquiet in Detroit S
horse racing circles.
As bangtail followers wondered
over the games future in thlse
parts, Mrs. Josephine Rohan dis
closed today the story behind Fri
days circuit court verdict which
held racing unconstitutional in
Michigan.
Mrs. Rohan, housewife who lives
virtually next door to the horse

said the verdict was the outcome
Of much previously unrewarded eff
fort on her part to halt constru-
ton of an additional barn.
Sympathetic attention was all
she obtained from city officials on
her protest that the w barn
would be a fire hazard. 1t was
explained to her that the fair

the city couldn't interfere.
Ultimately Mrs. Rohan arrived

WASHINGTON, Nov. 10 Up -
It's the treasury and war finance
committee of Maryland that you're
looking for . . If you want a ticket
to the Army-Navy football game at
Baltimore, December 2.
The line is forming rapidly, for
the tickets may run out along about
the time the 30,OO0th customer puts
his money down.
And don't forget to bring along
enough cash to buy also a bond,
at least a $25 bond.
This meeting Of wartime's great
service elevens has been designat-
ed as the sixth war loan game.
So the lucky ticket holder will be
expected to hold a bond in his
hand also when he walks in for
the kickoff.
Size of the bond you must pur-
chase in order to get ticket will
depend on where your seat is, but
at least half of the treasury's tick
cts will go with $25 bonds.
You will have to wait while
longer to learn how to go about
getting a ticket. . But this much
is known now: your ticket will cost
only the established price of $3.50
plus your bond, of course.
There, insofar as Johnny Henry
public is concerned, is the SUBJ
stance of an announcement made
today by the Navy after a confer
ence of Navy, War and Treasury
officials.
The announcement also said that:
