Gargoyle.
A woman lawyer, learned in
the law, but short on clients, gets
to write an eccentric old har-
ridan's will and finds herself
smack in the middle Of a murder
case-with an assist from her
publicity-wise secretary. Chief
suspects are disgruntled relatives
and faithful retainers, but an an
tique dealer figures somewhere.
Young Portia struggles with ethics,
a hangover and mixed loyalties,
but comes up with the solution
after only three murders. At that,
her batting average is pretty good.
This Is a tough one to solve.
The Flying Red Horse, by Fran
ces Crane. (Random House; !;

A spot of detecting for the Alb

fancy hunting when their
dachshund Pancho finds nice,
dowdy Juliana with bullet hole
in her. The polite manners of
their oil millionaire hosts, they
discover, just barely cover ruth
less determination to have things
their own way-even If it means
kidnapping Mrs. Abbott to dis
courage her husband. The mo-
tives are standard stuff-love and
greed. Only trouble, too many
people share these emotions.

New Bill Drawn
 For Alaska

Washington (R)-In an ef- fort to overcome the most i'm portant single remaining obstacle in the development of Alaska, the Department of the Interior may ask Congress to set up a new Alaska Develop ment Administration.
 The new administration would replace the Alaska Development corporation bill proposed last September by William Warne, assistant sec- retary of the interior.
 The new bill would provide loans to private interests for starting new businesses and industries. Capital would be provided at a low rate of interest, which is too high in Alaska" Reginald Price, a Department of Interior official working on the bill, said.

that the covered stands now being

PINEHURST, N. c., Nov. 5.-For

never was over par for his four
rounds. closing with 72-71 for 283.

|Video Saves Promoter
As West Edges Prada
In UIine Inaugural

Television may be both the
ruination and the salvation of the
boxing business locally. Video is
blamed by many for the small
turnouts at Turner's Arena, but
at the same time the income from
the sponsored program is just
about all that keeps the club op-
Grating. The same may be true at
Uline Arena where Promoter
Goldie Ahearn started his club
fight program last night.
Ahearn has signed to put on
and show via television some nine
or ten fights this winter and if last
nights turnout is any indication
he too will need that television
money to keep operating. For his
first show Ahearn had l ,260 Gus
toners. and at that 1t was nearly
twice as many as Turner's has
been averaging. Net gate was
1854.
The main fight was won by
Sonny Boy West, District light
weight. over Alfredo Prada OF
the Argentine. on a split decision.
It was a very close battle,
with West as usual starting
strongly to roll up a big
early margin. In the sew
enth Prada unleashed q body at
tack that won for him the final
four rounds and the vote of Judge
Harry Childs. Judge Joe Kill

nolds gave West the nod. West

operator was under arrest in Los
Angeles today in connection with

at Rockingham Park on October "a
William K. Weaver, 80, an un.
employed groom from Nogales

charges of maliciously interfering
with Rockingham race horses

year prison sentence under New

While Weaver was being helC
for the April term Of the Rock
ingham County Superior Court
during a hearing here. Los Angeles
police arrested Forest c. (Chub)
Wilson Of that city on as many
counts.
Rockingham Park officials re-
called Weaver as the owner Of a
stable that was raced here back
in 1941.
According to Thoroughbred Rae
ing Protective Bureau investiga-
tors, Weaver broke into Rocking
ham Park barns on the night of
October % and inserted sponges
in the nostrils of six of the nine
horses that were entered in the

tampering would hamper the

phoned Wilson that the Fix" was
in for Crisis. Wilson. investi-
gators charge. promised to bet

failed to do so. Weaver, almost
penniless when arrested, stood to

agreement with Wilson had been

eral william L. Phinney expressed
the opinion that Weaver was a
tool for other individuals.

vealed that there was no unusual
betting on the unhampered Crisis
