Jack Kramer, the pro tennis titan. was startled to note that his current toruists were using 35 per cent more balls than ever before. Investigation disclosed that, despite the great number; of matches, the players were practicing more than ever.
 Pancho Gonzales explained the extra work. "Players like Lew Hoad, improve 20 to 30 percent on the pro trour, ." he said. "NoW there is so much pro talent they're all struggling to stay alive. So everybody practices more either to keep his edge or to catch up to the fellow"

 Driver Ed E1isian was suspended from competition in the United States Auto Club sanctioned races yesterday for "Bad Judgement" inconnection wi tn l6-car collision which killed Pat 0 ,Connor dur ing the first lap of the 5OO-mile race which Jimmy Bryan won.
 Bryan won the Indianapolis Speedvay's richest race in history while drivers incurred O'Connor's s high-speed death and sponsors of the race considered discip- linary action against E1isian and two other heave footed pilots, Dick Rathman and Jimmy Reece.
 Bryan Is victory came because of his relentless pace, mostly over l4O miles per hour for the last l8O laps after the field was slowed to lO7 miles per hour for 20 laps due to the l6-car collision.

with = rolled umbrella. He
said he wanted $4,000 in
tickets on a horse named
Prize Ring. When he got
them, he said: Nov I'm

Eddie ODonnell sits be-

and pulls in money which

and he likes the people he
meets. He knows a lot about
race horses, but he seldom
sees race. From behind the
window, he hears the rising
thunder of the crowd over
head and the sudden silence
as the horses cross the finish
line.
He sees lots of torn-up
tickets when he leaves the
track. But he never heard of

Dear DR.. Steincrohn:
Please print the answer to
this so my wife can see it.
Here is the problem: She
sleeps in 70-degree heat and
has the window up two
inches from the bottom.
Claims she is cold. Says I'm
crazy when / shut off the
heat at night. She has been
doing it since one Of the
neighbors told her it makes
for better health to sleep at
TOTS degrees. Did you ever
hear such nonsense?
AS for myself, cannot
sleep when the room is sothot
and feel terrible the next day.
So tired I can't work. When
I put the regulator at 65-
which I can stand--she
moves it up after l get to
sleep. I sleep the rest of the
night in an oven!
My wife is as pale as a
ghost and complains Of head
aches all the time. Yet she
won't listen to me. She won't
go to doctor. Am I crazy or
is she crazy? X. j;
As / see 1t, you have three
alternatives. One: Do moth
ing about II but complain.
That win get you nowhere.1
Two: Sleep in separate
rooms. This win solve your
physical difficulty but prob
ably add an emotional One.l
Three this 1 consider the
wisest prOcedure): Insist on
having her 60 to your doctor.
She may be anemic or have
an underactive thyroid or
some other condition that
makes her feel abnormally
cold.

We would have to borrow or

objects. He doesn't realize
it's the way everyone does
things today.
Stephen Ri never could
go along with this idea Of do
ing something just because
everyone else is doing it. I
have my own ideas, and to
me going into debt is terrible.
I don't like to deprive Mar
garet of the things she wants,
but I don't see how she can
tolerate the idea of living
beyond our income:
The reason ] feel this way
is because my own father was
a regular spendtfrift. Our
family always lived beyond
his income. When he died,
things were in such a mess
1t took years to straighten
them out, and my mother
was left with practically
nothing.

with 3 good future and we
could sail ahead smoothly II
we don't overreach ourselves.
Peace Of mind means much
more to me than having a
home we can show on to the
Joneses. Why can't Mar
garet understand this?
THE COUNCILS VIEW
We agree with Stephen
that peace Of mind is es-
sential. but he should recog-
nize financial peace Of mind
Is not the only variety.
A woman who gives herself
wholeheartedly to making a
pleasant home for her family
cannot enjoy peace Of mind
II she feels her home is
shabby and unattractive. It Is
a little unfair to accuse her
Of merely trying to keep up
with the Joneses.
We can understand why
the word debt" holds terror
for Stephen. but he should
realize he is reacting emo
tionally and irrationally to
his past. Evidently his fa-
ther went into debt beyond
all reasonable standards.
Stephen should try to be
q little more objective and
recognize that borrowing can
be done in a sane and useful
way.
It would be a good idea
for Stephen and Margaret to
talk over the problem with
an ofhcer Of their bank. He
can discuss their budget in
detail and can work out a
conservative plan which al
lows for insurance, an emer-
gency fund and other es-
sentials.
Depending on Stephens in
come, there probably will be
a safe margin for some bor-
rowing or credit. This will
enable Margaret and Stephen
to expand and enjoy life a
little more without being
swamped in a financial mire.

Man Behind Bars at Monmouth

This man is behind bars.
He smiles all the time. He is
dark and broad-shouldered
and his name is Edward
Joseph o'Donnell. His job is
to work the 500 window at
Monmouth Park Race Track.
Sooner or later, all the big
bettors come to Eddie.
He is as jaded as a harem
parrot. Once in awhile. Mr..
o'Donnell will punch out a
ticket on q horse for him
self, but not because a stable
owner tipped him of, or a
tout. When he bets, 1t is be-
cause he has seen a colored
groom bet his own 81. If the
groom thinks his pet charger
is In shape for a race, the
ticket sellers begin to show
q personal interest in the
horse.
Edward O'Donnell has been
working the tracks in the
East for 20 years. He is Al,
has q lovely wife and three
children. He lives in Miami
Shores and grew up around
Baltimore. He gets his ex-
uressive hands and eloquent
tongue from the Reaches,
his mothers people. They
came from Galway.
When Eddie started as a
ticket seller, he earned $84
Z, q week. The salary of a
good mutuel window man to-
day is $3.50. He works six
days o week and his window
is down under the stands at
Monmouth. He seldom sees
a race, although he knows a
lot Of horse lore.
&&
THE BIGGEST BET he
ever handled was 100000. The
man was short, rniddle-aged
and gray. He had two hands
full of bills as he reached
the $l0O, window. The year
was l943. The track was
Belmont.
I'D like to have sixty
thousand to win on Count
Fleet" the little man said.
He handed the money in, and
Eddie handed it to the cashier
to count. 1t consisted of $20.-
600 in $500 bills; the rest in
hundreds, Eddie punched out
600 tickets.
Count Fleet won. He paid
$2.10 for each 50 bet. The
little stranger won $4,000.
Frank Hague was a big
bettor. He used a messenger
service to place his wagers,
Joe E. Lewis Is eavy-handed
with money too. So was Col.
E. r. Bradley. There was q
New England lady known as
The Woman in Red" who
always bet $40, 900 or more on
the favorite to show.
Dude Alard was q charac-
ter among big plungers. He
would bet $4,000 on a race,
but he lived in q $10-a-week
room with Scotty the Clocker
and they always bought q
pound of baloney in q de-
licatessen and q half pound
Of potato salad and some
pickles and the two Of them
sat In the dingy room and
ate OF q penknife.

THE DUDE got his foot
caught in hot tar en- route
to the track one day and said
that the macadam was
shaky. When he reached the
track. he noticed that q horse
named Shaker was running
and, in spite Of Scotty's coun-
eel. the Dude bet $4,000 to
