BALTIMORE. May 13-The Tets chop up the champ chowder and marching loiub held it's regular meeting today to pick Assault apart and discovered that trying to find something wrong with the Texas Terror of the Derby and Preakness is like fretting over an extra frsckle on a beauty contest winner.
 The club has a lot of fun tear ing apart the winners of the cla1s- ics about this time every year, but all the fraternity brothers found to complain about was CD that Lord Boswell might have beaten Assault if they had to go few moro jumps at Pimlico Saturday and @ that the Chocolate champs neck decision was scored in prac- tically milk-wsgcn time of POI 2-5.
 The answed to the first beef is that the distance was advertised as a mile and three-sixteenth, so it's too bad if Lord B didn't read the book in advance.
 When Jockey Warden Mehrtens hustled Assault across the wire Saturday it gave Assault a $9o,l20 pay check out of the biggest got cf gold ever put up fer a horse race - $139,620 gross value.

School Head Sounds
Warning 10 Parents

A warning that loose talk about
juvenile delinquency may infect the
entire generation was sounded be-
fore two local organizations yester-
day by DR.. Hobart M. Corning, SUI
perintendent of schools.
DR.. Corning spoke at a luncheon
meeting of the Optimists Club at
the Continental Hotel and later ad-
dressed the Mems Club of Cleveland
Park Congregational Church, 3400
Lowell street NV.
Acknowledging the existence of q
youth problem, he went on to say
that adults must "show faith in the
generation as a whole. If we con-
denim it as a whole, youth catches
the tone and tries to live up to what
we have said Of it."
Dr.. Corning placed the blame for
juvenile delinquency on the older
generation. pointing out that in al
most SO out of 100 cases youth was
victim of circumstances. Adults,
he added, must try to correct those
faults in society which bring about
the downfall of some youths by pro-
viding proper environment, recrea-
ton, health conditions and family
relationships.
He denied the truth of a rumor
that tooay's youth is soft" and
lacking in patriotism. Particularly
during the war. the younger genera
ton proved it was outstanding and
courageous with as high ideals as
ever, DR.. Corning declared.

Americas first prima ballerina
Mana Gollner, appearing tonight at
Lisner Auditorium in the final
Washington performance of Ballet
for America, stands as an example of
the power of determination in over
coming physical disability.
A native of Texas, Miss Gollner
was stricken with infantile paralysis
at the age of 4, and the dread dis
ease left her with a club foot. The
ensuing fight to walk indirectly led
her to the highest acclaim Of the
ballet world.
"At first, was able to walk only
in sand until my foot was strength
ened," she said. Soon I began
dancing to help it further. Then
I began to study it seriously and
knew it was what wanted to do. y
Struggle to Retain Name.
At press conference, Miss Coll
ner explained that her profession
has entailed number of struggles
including one to retain her name.
"Gollner didn't sound Russian
enough when I was named prima
ballerina, and there was really con-
siderable argument" she said. "But
I won"
Miss Gollner said there are only
two other official prima ballerinas
recognized today. The formal recog-
milton, she explained, comes with
acceptance by the original Russian
ballet companies. She was accorded
the honor in London in 1885.
Right now, she is waging cam
paign to establish a ballet that will
be developed according to the likes
of Americans" and she predicted
the dance will maintain most Of
the accepted classical forms as a

basis, supplementing them with
"deviations that are already begin
ming to show up among American
groups"
Particularly praising the develop
ments of such American choreo-
graphers as Agnes de Mile and
such composers as Aaron COPELAND,
she said there are now about 20
ballet companies in this country.
Appears With Husband.
Miss Gollner, in private life, is
Mrs. Paul Petroff, and is appearing
in the Ballet for America with her
husband.
Travelling with the Petroffs on a
current tour of every State is their
8-month-old son, Paul Burleson
Petroff, "who hasn't shown any
tendency towards the ballet yet"
his father said.
Mr.. Petrof added that he thought
every child should be instructed in
dancing, however.
There isn't any form of exercise
that's better" he said, land 1t does
a lot to develop a sense of rhythm
and poise."
A native of Denmark, Mr.. Petroff
Joined his wife in her enthusiasm
for an American ballet.
American audiences especially
have shown marked increases in in
terest for the ballet" he said. I'm
fact, they are beginning to rank
with London audiences, which are
considered to be the best"
Tonight's program, beginning at
$3.50 o'clock, will include Les Petit
