Villa Holt Foerster,
Entertainer, Is, Dies
BY the Associoted Prass

LOS ANGELES, June 4-Willa
Holt Wakefield Forester, rs, one OF
New York's favorite entertainers in
an earlier era, died in obscurity
yesterday.
She was first known chiefly as a
drawing room entertainer, then
turned to the vaudeville stage. A
singer, her name was identified
chiefly with the old ballad, Honey,
Stay in Your Own Back Yard"
She was married for almost 20
years to the late Arnold Forester,
sculptor, but divorced him in 1886.
She made a few appearances at the
Hollywood playhouse before a new
generation of entertainment seek
ers, but then disappeared until
Charles Coburn found her Ill in a
small hotel.
He and other Players Club men,
bers arranged for her care. Her
condition became worse about two
weeks ago and she was removed to
the hospital.

Reduced Home Costs
1917 Down Payment
Asked by Veterans,

Homes today cost too much
despite Housing Administrator Will
son w. Wyatt's effort to lower them
the District Combined Veterans
Committee for Housing says.
Under the Wyatt program builders
are required to construct half the
houses for veterans in the District
area at $500 or less, but the vet
erans' committee says the program
should lower the dividing line" SO
that half would be built for 5000
or less.
At meeting yesterday with
housing officials a veterans SUBJ
committee headed by Fraser Gard
ner contended the great majority
Of veterans cannot pay more than
5000 to $1,000 for home.
Attack "Duar Financing.
The committee, which represents
SO veterans organizations, advocated
steps to eliminate dual" financing
so veteran could purchase a home
with a maximum. single monthly
payment of not more than $50.
I'VE believe the monthly pay
ment should include every cost,
Mr.. Gardner said. LAS it stands
now there are all sorts of additional
fees that must be paid all UP and
down the line"
The committee also urged a max
imum down payment of 10 per cent,
to include title transfer and other
costs. and an elimination of unfair"
charges.
Outline Steps for Aid.
During the conference, in which
Markley Shaw, District area housing
expediter; John Sink, special rep
resentative of Mr.. Wyatt, and Sam
uel Riddick, veterans adviser to
the National Housing Agency, rep
resented the Government, the vet
erans' group agreed to the follow
ing steps:
A check of all construction to de-
termine whether builders have Gov
ernment approval; arrangement to
instruct former servicemen on their
rights to materials under prioritles;
a program to discourage veterans
from seeking supplies on the black
market.
The veterans Representatives said
they considered start of $4,000 dwell
ing units by the end of 1947 in the
District area would be a suitable
goal for local builders.

Such equine bluebloods as Busher

track record of 1:42 for a mile and
one-sixteenth, and 3-year-old Hon

The international flavor will be
added by Olhaverry, Chilean gray

College Coaches MeeI
To Fight Threat 10
True Amateurism
By the Assoeioted Press

CHICAGO July 22.-Some 80 of
the Nations outstanding coaches
and athletic officials from 16 confer
ences put their heads together in
frank discussion today in an attempt
to keep "the true spirit of amateur
ism" from being undermined by
an alarming trend" toward semi
professionalism in intercollegiate
sports.
The representatives gathered in
the Offices OF the Western Con-
ference at the invitation of the Big
Ten Commissioner, Kenneth L.
Wilson. who warned that the time
has come when too many schools
are seeking the boy instead of the
boy seeking the school.
Wilson believes a uniform plan
should be adopted-not necessarily
built around the code of regula-
tions Of any conference-to rid
college sports of "evil influences. !"
The response he received showed
that other conferences also thought
the time was ripe and are willing
to put their cards on the table
during the two-day convention.
Time has come when we must do
something if we are to survive. >
said Artie Eilers of St. Louis, COM
missioner of the Missouri Valley
Conference. Its cause for alarm
when you read charges that one
college has stolen anothers foot
ball players. Things were bad after
the First World War-but they'll
get 100 times worse If we don't do
something now"
