Mrs. Forbush Mixes
By Lewis r. Atchison

Dogs can be expensive" Mrs.
Gabrielle e. Forbush was saying.
you've probably heard about the
American who offered the Eng
lishman $4,000 for particularly
fine specimen only to be told the
Englishman lost more than that
In day at the races"
But the Woodworking secre-
tary of the Old Dominion Kennel
Club got started in the game at
no cost at all, she related. 1t
seems that the late President
Roosevelt received q beautiful,
white bulldog from a Los Angeles
kennel, but Mrs. Roosevelt al
ready had a terrier called Maggie
and the President promised there
would be no more dogs in the
White House while Maggie re-
manned, so the newcomer was
turned over to Mrs. Forbush.
"Jiggs turned out to be a gift
and one OF the most expensive ]
ever received" she said, But he
was a wonderful dog" And that
incident was a stroke OF good
luck for dog-lovers in this baili-
wick for Mrs. Forbush has more
energy than a couple Of 8:l5
commuters trying to catch the
$3.50 train.
We found the lady busy at her
desk as research assistant to the
Secretary of the Treasury and
before we could get q word out
she wanted to know why the
newspapers didn't give dog lovers
q better break.
Baltimore papers ran a whole
column on their show and pub
lished a nice picture as well as
all the results. New York papers
carry news about dogs all the
time and a great many people
here are interested in them.
Washington had some 400 dogs
in the Baltimore show and two
people usually 60 with a dog.
That's 800 people, or almost as
many as you have at a prize
fight, but the local papers don't
pay much attention to our activ-
tiles"
Mrs. Forbush was more reluct-
ant to talk about her newsletter
or her five dogs. She insisted
other club papers were just as
good and as widely read. She
named Peg Johnson's Obichah,

Brundoge Tries Sled, Doesn't
Break Leg, as One Had Hoped
By Ted SHIFTS
Assoeioied Press Sports Editor

ST. NORTH, Switzerland, Feb.
4.-When one young member OF
the American winter Olympic
team heard that Avery Brundage
planned to make run on a four
man bobsled he said impiously:
IT hope he breaks a Leg"
No one Is more cognizant Of
how some of the public regard
him than Brundage himself.
Speaking to the American
Olympic team, he said wryly:
'"You can see I'm not a monster
with horns, even though some
people think I am"
What is he like, this big, sober
faced president of the United
States Olympic Committee who
has ideals and fights for them.
He is massive, well over 6 feet,
and broad shouldered. His COM
plexion is ruddy. He is bald and
go and his fringe of sandy hair
fluffs out like a halo. He speaks
cautiously and has shy smile.
His trimmed spectacles, with
his powerful build, give him the
air of rather athletic professor.
In private life he is wealthy
contractor and hotel owner in
Chicago. He is reported never to
have turned in an expense &C
count for an Olympic trip.
Some months ago he set out to
fight the Amateur Hockey Associ-
alton of the United States, which
he claims is under commercial
sponsorship. The threat to with
draw all American Olympic teams
if the AHA team competed natu-
rally did not make him popular.
In the end the International
Olympic Committee told the Swiss
firmly that hockey was not on the
official '4s Olympic program, and
that. the International Hockey
Federation no longer has Olympic
approval. Hockey continues to
be played In conjunction with the
games, but Brundage has won .
personal victory.
Brundage made that bobsled
run yesterday, along with j.
Lyman Bingham, chef de mission
of the United States team. After
the run this Is what he had to
say, very calmly:
Tn bobbing you are so close
to the ground you get sensation
of speed you get no other way.
It is the difference between cross
ing the ocean on an eight-meter
yacht and on the Queen Mary"
That was all, pertaining to his
personal emotions. Now, bob
