bedroom ceiling, which is pa
pered, also looks to be in bad
condition. We have heard of a
cloth material that comes about
four feet wide that is made es-
pecially for bad plaster ceilings.
1t is supposed to prevent further
cracking and to keep the plaster
from coming down. Have you
heard of this material and what
is your idea about it?
Answer: Wallpaper dealers
sell what is known as painters
canvas or cloth. 1t is intended
to prevent the appearance of
small plaster cracks through
the paint. In your case I would
not advise using this type of
material because if enough
plaster becomes loose the weight
will eventually cause the cloth
to bulge and even tear away
from the plaster. My suggestion
is to cover such ceilings with
one-quarter inch gypsum wall

Wallpaper Paste.
Question: Last summer a
friend of ours papered our bed
room and used a starch for the
paste. He claims it is better
than the regular paper paste.
I intend to do my other rooms
and wonder what you suggest
use.
Answer: If starch is so much
better than ordinary wheat flour
paste I am sure the wallpaper
ing industry would use it. I
find that the regular wallpaper
paste is still the most practical
for the purpose. Be sure the
walls are clean, and they have
been given a coat of glue size
before paper is applied.

Question: We purchased a
house a year ago and are now
considering remodeling the bath
room. would like to know if a
modern folding door is salts
factory, since it would conserve
considerable floor space.
Answer: see no reason why a
folding door would not be salts
factory. I presume you have in
mind the type that folds like an
accordion. If so, it comes with
a plastic sheet material on the
surface and therefore moisture
should not have any serious af-
feet or the door or the mechan-
ism.
RemOdeling a Fireplace.
Question: We want to remodel
our fireplace which was built of
brick about Is years ago and has

Could you give us the names of
some books on remodeling of

be purchased?
Answer, To the best of my
knowledge there is no book on
the subject of remodeling of
f1replaces. There is, however, a
book entitled How to Build a
Fireplace" published by Sunset
Magazine of San Francisco,
Calf. This book is on sale at

DISTINGUISHED OIdtimer to Rule
MoryIdnd's 4 Harness Tracks
By Lewis r. Atchison

Maryland's harness racing
tracks latched onto one of the
real old-timers for presiding
Judge of the four tracks this
year when they signed up Joseph
M. McGraw of Washington. Pa.
The 76-year-old gentleman goes
back even farther than William
E. Miller, Rosecroft president and
patriarch of the sport in this
area.
McGraw's appointment was
announced yesterday by D. Ell
dred Rinehart, chairman of the
Maryland Racing Commission, at
a reception attended by officials
of the four Maryland tracks and
members of press radio and
television.
McGraw was the unanimous
choice of the commission by the
track presidents-Miller, Dick
Hutchison, jr. of Laurel Race
way. C. William Hetzer of Bal
timore Raceway and Earl E.
Conley, Ocean Downs Raceway.
The new Judge has had 36 years
experience in the role at various
tracks from coast to coast.
Presides Over Classics.
For nine years McGraw has
presided at the Hambletonian.
worlds richest harness event,
and the Little Brown jug, the
richest pace. The Hambletonian
is expected to carry a 100000
purse this year, while the Brown
Jug has paid off to the tune of
$65, 900. He also has presided at
the Lexington, KY, meets for
the last Is years.
McGraw has served as chief
judge at the York. Pa, fair for
SO years and has been overseer
of the Ohio "short-ship" chain
since it's foundation some years
ago. He also served IL years as
an official at Wheeling Downs,
a fiat racing track.
Agile for a man halt his age
and as keen about horses as q
youngster seeing them for the
first time. McGraw has raced
and bred harness animals since
early manhood. He handled
such stars as Ess H. Kay, holder
of the worlds record of 2:0034

for a pacing stallion for two
heats. He also trained High
Admiral, 2:0714, and Axworth,
2:10, the famed Ben White and
Pop" Greer.
A Versatile Pioneer.
McGraw, who goes back to
1896 in racing, also introduced
a mechanical barrier at North
Randall Park in 1887. about 10
years before Steve Phillips in
vented the mobile gate now in
vogue. He claims the distinction
of being the first race-caller to
use the loudspeaker. and was a
pioneer in introducing daShes
for the usual heats in harness
racing.
McGraw renewed an old ac-
quaintance with Miller when he
visited Rosecroft yesterday, and
his first request was to climb
into a sulky and pilot a colt in
a workout.
In succeeding John Sadler of
Cockeysville. Md, McGraw will
supervise operations at Rose
croft. beginning May 18. After
that he will move to Laurel on
June Is. to Baltimore Raceway.
July 13, and Ocean Downs on
August 10. All meets will run
for 20 days. with the usual addi-
tional nights in case of rain.

If Seixas, playing captain OF
