CooItown This
| Spring, After All
BY the Assoeiotsd Press

HAvRE DE GRACE. Md.
April 19.-It looks as If East
earn racing fans will get O
chance to see Coaltown in &C.
ton this spring after all.
The Calumet streak yesterday
was assigned 130 pounds for the
$4,000 added Burke Handicap.
Havre de Grace's / 1/16-mile
weekend feature. 's'7
There has been some specu-'
1ation about whether the fiashy
brown colt, top sprinter of 1948
and winner of several route
tests, would race this spring
before Calumet Farms moved
its thoroughbreds West to Chi
cago.
It's mostly because of this
weight business.
Upon arrival here last month
with two dozen head Of Calumet
stock, Trainer Jimmy Jones said
his horses would stay In the
barn If handicappers loaded
them down with everything but
the starting gate. =
But Jones indicated that q
130-pound weight assignment
for the feet 4-year-old would
be acceptable.

June 20.
That's what Trainer Jimmy
Jones said yesterday when asked
about Calumet Farms failure to
enter the 4-year-old speed king
in any stake events at Belmont
Park.
Jones said 1t would be about so
days before Citation, the champion
3-year-old of last year, would be
in racing condition. The colt in
jured a leg at Tanforan, Calf,
this winter.
Jones, here with "a Calumet
thoroughbreds currently stabbed at
Havre de Grace, added that he's
just "breezing" Citation now and
the colt still is "a little bit SLOW"
Although Citation was not in
cluded in Belmont's stake list.
Calumet Farms has some of its
other racers such as Coaltown,
Faultless and Fervent slated to
perform at the plush Long Island

The markings. which will be dyed

may be fished at desired depths

! universe from observable pnenO-
mena which show the existence of,
but do not completely prove the
invisible atomic structure underly-
ing all things. Mr.. Brown pointed
out that the great religions of the
world, from the Jewish and Hindu
down through the more modern
Christian, Mohammedan and Bahai
Faiths have produced definite, and
observable spiritual impacts on the
world, Transforming the inner ma
ture of millions of people by the
power of the word from the divine
prophets. The course of this phe-
nomena is as invisible as the atom,
but can be attested in much the
same way.
The second talk, dealing with the
subject "The Proofs of Prophet
hood" was given at the home of
Mr.. and Mrs. Oscar Engelder, 7540
North Seventh Street. In this talk
Mr.. Brown endeavored to show
that there are three great proofs
of a prophet, first, the wonderful
changes for the better he produces
in human beings Gas Jesus said,
I've shall know them by their
fruits"), second, the life of purity,
strength and utter devotion to His
Cause, that the Prophet shows; and
third, the truthful bearing out of
the prophets prophecies as to what
will happen to the world.

City To Start
SURVEY

If you happen to live in one of
five selected areas of Greater
Phoenix you may expect a call
most any day from a young lady
from the Health Department. She
will be asking for information
fabout the size of your family and
whether any of your folks have
suffered from hay fever, asthma,
hives or polio.
The interviewer will also be ask
ing about the animal pets you have
around the house and for sundry
other information.
THE INFORMATION GATHER
ED in this house-to-house survey
will be used in the fight against
infantile paralysis; and DR.. Paul
w. McCracken, Maricopa County
Health Officer, and Mr.. Roy N.
Jones, Acting City Health Super
visor, have asked the people of
Greater Phoenix to give every
assistance possible to the enumera-
tors who are taking this survey.
The ultimate goal of the project
is to learn more about poliomyeli-
tbs mad to determine how the dis
ease is spread. The present emu
meration is a preliminary check
to gather basic facts about the
characteristics of citizens and their
homes. All information collected
is kept strictly confidential and
will be used for statistical study.
This survey, which is being spon-
sored jointly by the City, County
and State Health Departments and
the U. S. Public Health Service,
is expected to be completed in Feb
ruary. AS soon as these data have
been compiled the project person
mel will begin the basic polio study
which is expected to continue for
three or four years.
THE POLIO SURVEY is being
conducted in conjunction with the
Phoenix Fly Control Project which
is being supervised by Mr.. Dome
mic Capone, and one phase of the
investigation will be an attempt
to determine the role of flies and
other possible non-human sources
of spread of the polio virus.
Miss Margaret Shonman, Project
Statistician, Mrs. jeanette Lame
and Mrs. frankie Cirasole, emu
merators, will make the interviews.
Most of these home calls will be
made between a. m. and 5 p. m.
but occasionally night calls will
be necessary in order to contact
persons who work during the day.
Each interviewer has been sup
piled with an official Identified
ton card from the Health Depart
ment.
