Well, what do you know? Another
tie for that top spot and just one
more night left in this half Your
guess is as good as mine as to what
the final result will be. Last week
Trinity lost one to Brethren while
ST. Johns won three from Christ
Reformed, to at least get a chance at
the second half honors. st. Paul's
f. U. B. won two from Washington
Square, to still remain in the race.
Individual honors for the evening
were well taken care of by Ralph
Williams, of Christ Reformed, when
he had the high single game (139),
while Wilbur Perrott, of st. Paul's
E. U. B., had the high three-game

care of all team honors, with a

Trial Board Recesses
After Witness Alters
Story Of Police Bribe
The Police Trial Board hearing Of

The Police Trial Board hearing OF
Patrolman Peter G. voolfolk, SO,
charged with conduct unbecoming
an officer, was postponed at noon
today after the principal prosecu-
ton witness contradicted q previous
sworn statement In his testimony.
Pvt. voolfolk, colored, attached
to No. Is Precinct, is accused Of
having accepted IS from George
Washington Brooks, ~, colored, OPP
orator of a garage in the 900 block
of Barry place NV, on December
20. In return for the money, he is
charged with agreeing to take no
action on q traffic violation ticket
which Brooks had received. He
also is charged with having ac-
cepted bribes of IS weekly from
Brooks as protection against tickets.
Testifying before the board this
morning, Brooks denied having
bribed the policeman and said he
had only paid him s. for payment
of a trafic ticket which he had re-
ceived. A previous statement given
by Brooks to policemen Of the 18th
precinct alleging the bribery was
repudiated by the witness. He said
the statement had been made "in
anger" against Pvt. voolfolk for
giving him the traffic ticket.
Brooks stated that the only other
money he had ever given to Pvt.
voolfolk was s. which was a por-
ton Of money which, he said, he
had inherited" He later admitted
that he had won the money playing
the numbers. He said the money
was given as gift, had not been
solicited, and put the policeman un-
der no obligation to him.
William s. Cheatham, represent
ing the Corporation Counsel's Office,
pleaded surprise" in introducing
the previous sworn statement made
by Brooks. Edward A. Beard, repre-
sentative Of the Corporation Coun-
sells Ofiice on the board, told the
witness his statement and tran
script of his testimony this morning
would be sent to the District Attor-
neys' ONCE and warned him of the
penalties for perjury.

recessed the hearing until this after

China Air Force BUYS
$50 Surplus Cas-, 10
Be Flown Over Pacific
By the Assoeiotsd Press

The Chinese Air Force has pur-
chased $50 surplus Gas Commando
transports from the War Assets Ad-
ministration and will have them
overhauled and flown across the
Pacific, WAA officials said today.
These planes are among several
hundred of the type now in storage
at Walnut Ridge, Ark. They are
being purchased for 5000 each
and, in addition, the Chinese gov
eminent is considering buying ad-
ditional engines and spare parts for
the planes from surplus.
The Chinese have been negotiat-
ing with several American COM
panies for overhaul and delivery Of
the planes, including the Curtiss-
Wright Corp, which built about
5000 Commands for the Air Force
during the war.
Overhaul, Delivery Costly.
: Overhaul and delivery costs will
greatly exceed the purchase price OF
the planes. The plan generally calls
for % an initial inspection and
preparation for flight from Walnut
Ridge to the overhaul base, (2) a
general inspection and recondition-
ing of the plane and 90 delivery to
China, either by the great circle
route over Alaska and the Aleutians
or over the middle and much longer
route by way of Hawaii and the
Philippines.
The three phases of the Job may
cost from 100000 to $4,000 a plane
The Commando was the largest
two-engine transport used in the
war and served primarily in the
China Burma India area. Their
original cost was around $3.50, 900 tc
100000 each.
Planes Weigh $4,000 Pounds.
The planes have a gross weight o1
5000 pounds and useful loao
(fuel and cargo of about 1900
pounds. They cruise at around 21s
miles an hour.
Because of civil air regulation re.
quirements, it has been difficult tt
certify all but one model for use ir
this country. The widest user ol
the type is Slick Airways, a freight
line.
