School Children
Observe We Day

1t took the official announcement
of the ending of the war in Europe
to start the bell in the belfry of
the Lincoln school ringing after
many years of silence, but ring the
bell did at 10 o'clock and never was
its tone more joyous, never did it
carry such a happy message.
AS the bell sounded out 81 times
as a presidential tribute, people Of
the neighborhood rejoiced at once
again hearing its silvery tones and
telephones were quickly resorted to
so that men and women who were
called TO their lessons long ago by
the sound might once again hear
the tones which seemed far more
pleasant on this occasion.
After the bell was rung the 81
times as a presidential salute, it
was rung 48 times for the 4s states
Of our nation.

NEW YORK, May 28.-With less
than two weeks to 60 before the list
running of the Kentucky Derby, the
field has narrowed to where the WIN
ner is expected to come from group

This select half dozen is made up

A dozen or more 3-year-olds are
expected to face the barrier at
Churchill Downs June 9, but If the
victor in the $4,000 added run for
the roses is not one of these six, the
race will go down as surprise.
Wednesdays running of the mile
and 10 yards of the Wood Memorial
at Jamaica may eliminate further
some of those now under consider

Bradley's hopes of winning his
fifth Derby were given a big boost
Saturday when Burning Dream won
the mile of the Derby Trial at the

The Professional Golfers Associa-

are stepping it up. Every dime we
take in on these matches, and others
throughout the country, goes for re-

ley asserted.
Snead spent rs months in the
Navy before a chronic back ailment
brought about his discharge. He
said after the match he would be
willing to play for the rehabilitation
fund for 10 years If necessary after
having seen some of our wounded
veterans hobble around q pitch-and-
putt course on crutches."
Both Snead and Nelson spent
their spare time visiting various
veterans hospitals on last winters
golf tour. Nelson took eight titles
on that junket while gathering in
$22 900 in War Bond prizes. Snead
took six and $4,000.

In preparation for the week enc

Violations, under the new code,
include paying Of tuition or expenses
of athletes, providing of jobs not
deemed necessary by a school, or
payment of salaries for unnecessary
service. It also prevents representa-

tions from approaching athletes
with the purpose to persuade them
to attend any university for the

them an opportunity to pay ex-

Further, coaches can discuss ad-
