NEW YORK, May 14.-R-1t's
always easy to spend someone
else's money. or tell him how to Z,
spend it, so it is no trouble at an
TO urge the horse racing folks to
dig down in the sock and hlre
themselves a first-class car.
Racing is off TO a fresh start
after it's four-month vacation. That
Il is due for prosperity SURPRISING
even its record season OF last year
is almost a foregone conclusion
The public as whole has shown
1t wants racing, is hungry Tor II.
But it wants honest racing. 1t
doesn't want jockeys, or owners,
or trainers who have been barred
for shady practices at one track
operating at another. When a man
is suspended for life, it should be
fer life.
It is said there are 7O-some ways
q horse can lose in 4 race honest
b. That is gamble enough with
out being fearful that the horse
isn't being allowed to make It's
best effort.
"A car, a man OF iron will and
accepted integrity, would give the
public confidence in the sport, and
would make any would-be wrong
doors think twice before attempt
ing any shenanigans. If man con-
nected with the game knew that II
he were caught cheating he was
through for life, he wouldn't try to
cheat
The car should have all the
powers that were enjoyed by the
late Baseball Commissioner, K.
M. Lands. There was no appeal
from Lands final decision.

When Lands banned a man he
stayed banned, and any ball play
ers with larcenous leanings, know
ing this, let no shadow of suspi-
cion fall on them. Consequently,
baseball has enjoyed the respect
and confidence of all.
The idea is that the race bettors
want to know they are getting an
honest run for their dollar. They
don't want to put their two bucks
on nag and, by the nag's per-
Torrance, find out that the train
er just had him entered for the
ride to condition him for future
races.
They want to know that when
a horse goes to the post it means
the horse is ready to run, and
that no attempt will be made to
keep it from running.
A car, in addition to keeping a
haklike eye open for any crook
edness, would serve as a disciple
marian for minor offenses, a job
usually handled by the stewards.
That is, where a jockey might be
guilty of rough riding. although it
was obvious he was doing it in the
interests of winning a race. Such
rule infractions are equivalent to
fist fights or rows with umpires
on the baseball field, wherein the
parties are fined and perhaps sus-
pended for a time.
At any rate, it would seem to be
good time for racing to ease
itself into the good graces of its
critics by hiring an. outstanding
man as sort of a glorified cop,

lings Succumbs Tuesday To
Stomach Ailment

The Midland Empire lost a re-
spected and valuable old-time citi-
zen Tuesday morning when Charles
j. Chapple, 6S, Billings pioneer
druggist, died at a hospital of a
stomach ailment. He had been a
resident of Billings since 1892, when
he located there to open Chapples,
Inc, with two brothers as asso-
ciates. He became manager of the
business at the age of 10 and had
since been actively in charge.
He served on many committees
and boards of municipal and civic
bodies and was known throughout
a wide territory in Montana and
Wyoming.
Many years ago when Laurel was
an infant town with prospects of
growing, he opened a branch store
on West Main street in the build
ing that is now the Laird apart
ments, with the late Charles B.
Sande as manager. Sande later
bought the store, which moved to
locations several times and is
now the property of Merwin Price.
Chapple was senior member of
Billings city council when he
died. He was a member of the
state pharmacy board and had
served several years as its presi-
dent, was a past master of Ashlar
No. 20, A. F. & A. NJ, vice
president of the Billings Masonic
Temple association, charter member
Of the Billings Rotary club and vice
president of the Eastern Montana
Pioneers association.
Mr.. Chapple was born March 9,
at Bomansville, Ont, Canada,
a son of Nh. and Mrs. William
Chapple. He was married June ~,
1901, to Winifred Rixon, member
If an early Billings family, who

Laurel's E bond quota has also

Commenting on the standing of

Dakota went over first with Mon
tana close behind it. Next, and
far behind, is South Dakota and
then Wyoming. Iowa of the corn

Canvass Begins Here Tuesday
Morning To Raise S750-Ex-
pect Speedy Completion

Solicitors began work here Tues
day morning to gather funds for
the Sister Elizabeth Kenny founda-
ton, an organization which seeks
to extend the use of the Kenny
system of treatment for those who
have had infantile paralysis with
crippling effect. Included in the
foundations program is research
work to learn more about the dis
ease and provide for prevention and
remedy. A city-wide campaign is
being conducted to raise $3.50 as
Laurel's contribution. Scattering re-
ports from solicitors indicate the
work is progressing rapidly and
that the response is generous.
r. B. Packard, chairman of the
Kenny appeal, presided Monday eve
ming at the Methodist church at a
meeting of delegates from women's
organizations. The meeting was
for the purpose of assigning dis
tricts to solicitors in the residen-
tial areas. Assisting at the meet
ing was President Clyde Cromwell
of the Rotary club, sponsoring or
g~anization.
Packard authorized the placing of
collection cans in public places in
which contributions of money may
be placed. He also appointed COM
mittees to conduct a solicitation in
the business district, consisting of
P. A. Johnston, Allen Gatewood, M.
K. Harschlip, Stewart johnson, G.
w. Laird, C. H. Barney, M. o.
Roysdon, Charles Staiger, Clay
Greening and Rev. Theodore c.

A general committee meeting is
to be called this week for reports
on progress of the work. Packard
said Wednesday he expected the job
would be completed 10 In the
nation the campaign is to run until
Dec. 8 to raise $5,000,000.

Swimming Pool Body Is Formed To
Handle Details, Speed Construction

An organization was set up Fri
day night at a meeting of repre-
sentatives of civic and fraternal
bodies to carry forward the early
construction of a municipal swim
ming pool. The meeting at the
city hall named Clyde Cromwell
chairman and Sam Bliss secretary,
and appointed a central committee
to exercise general control. The
sentiment expressed at the meet
ing was for early construction, be-
ginning if possible in the spring.
Bliss, j. j. Parker and Paul
Void gave the history of the move
me1t which began several years
ago and was recently revived by
the American Legion who gained
the cooperation of the city council.
Committees from the two decided
to call a general meeting, which
was held Friday night. The plan
of finance is for securing contri-
buttons, with the city government
over later and bearing part
OF the cost. Operation and main
tenance would also be the city's.
The central committee is COM
posed of Mrs. o. R. Burdett, Fred
W. Graft, Chester Eyer, j. j.
Parker, Joe Larson, R. B. Packard,
Mrs. M. o. Roysdon, Mayor Peter
Thomson and w. B. Roysdon.
Representatives of the council
and administration said the city's
participation would be governed by
the extent of popular interest
shown in the proposal, which would
be represented by contributions by
individuals and organizations.
City Engineer Eyer urged that
the pool, if built, be amply large for
present and future needs. He made
a guess of $4,000 to $4,000 as the
probable cost.
Size and type of pool will have
70 be determined first by the CEN
,ral committee. A fairly accurate
estimate of the cost a then be
arrived at. The recommended loca-
lion is in North park.
Mrs. M. o. Roysdon, representing
The L. L. club, said the club has a
s25 bond to turn over to the pool.
