Could the circular-shape
painting Of a madonna and
child which hangs in a sixth
floor rack of the Security
Storage Company, and has
been hanging there in the
dark for almost 80 years
could that painting possibly
be a genuine Botticelli?
The heavy gilt frame bears
a plaque identifying the pic
ture as a work by the famous
Italian master.
Most likely it's an imitation
Of, or by a follower Of, Botti-
celli.
One local art authority
found it too preposterous to
believe that an original
wouldn't be out on the mar
ket, If not out on view.
But another, familiar with
the sometimeS-strange ways
OF art collectors. thought it
at least conceivable.

was titled "A Warehouse in

Mr.. H. Elton Ferguson. who

Collectively they've prob

Mr.. Ferguson, who's re-

Local decorators and archi-
tects were given an oppor-
tunity this week of seeing
what the talents of local and
European weavers are turn
ing out in the way of original
fabrics.
Mrs. HELENE Poole, George
town decorator, arranged the
showing after attending a
meeting of the American
Craftsman Council in New
York City. She decided it was
high time such craftwork was
gathered together here, and
consequently set up the show
ing in her home studio, 1406
Thirtieth street NV.
During the past six months
Mrs. Poole has browsed
through Europe, Mexico and
South America looking for
the unusual in fabrics that
could be imported.
There is machine printing
from Ayignon, France, that
looks exactly like midas
prints. The cotton is called
Les Indiennes" and is pre-
shrunk and color fast. In any
variety of patterns and colors,
1t is used for dress fabric,
wallpaper, lining cupboards,
curtains.
Belgian Cloth
It's interesting to note, in
this machine age, a Belgian
machine-woven cloth strives
for the hand-woven effect.
And another fabric from
France, a polished cotton
called Versailles, was de-
signed to enhance walls as
backdrops to world-famous
paintings.
Local exhibitors include
Mrs. Doris McClelland and
Lyn Egbert, both experts in
screen printing and fabric
designing. A hand-woven
design by Mrs. Louise Cooley
is a picture in outline Of the
Holy Family-Joseph, Mary
and the cradle. 1t is an ex-
ample of free form in weav-
ing combined with abstract
art.
Just the sort of thing"
Mrs. Poole believes, that
would go well in the new
Air Academy, perhaps in the
chapel"

allowed to be undertaken by

arguing that this would not be
"in the usual and regular
course of business" that nor
mally could be handled by the

Problem for Management
He said the question of any
possible sale should be sub
mitted to a two-thirds vote Of
the stockholders. "the real
owners of the business"
John E. Powell, representing
the ball club. without admit
ting that any sale or transfer
is in prospect at this time. said
any such sale is a problem for
the management to determine,
not the stockholders.
In court papers relating to
the present suit, Calvin Griffith
president of the Senators. has
said he would like to sell the
properties at Charlotte and
Chattanooga.
Judge Hart gained an ad-
mission from Gribbon that.
though the suit questions the
sale of the physical assets, the
basis for the legal effort is an
attempt to block transfer of
the ball clubs franchise.
The Judge then ruled that
any franchise transfer would
not constitute the sale of any
asset, nor would the sale of the
farm clubl properties and Grit =

of all or substantially all Of the

You are trying to do in this

Murphy Loses in Bid
To Bar Stodium's S Sale

H. Gabriel Murphy lost the
first round today in his second
major effort to stop any pos
sible move of the Washington
Baseball Club to another city.
District Court Judge George
L. Hart, jr., acting on the case
today, turned down Murphy's
effort to block a possible sale
of Griffith Stadium and the
ball clubs farm team parks in
Chattanooga and Charlotte.
I Murphy. 90 per cent stock
holder in the club. tried once
before to stop what he feels is
an impending move by the Sem
ators to another city. In 1858
he filed a suit in District Court
seeking an injunction against
the move on grounds that the
ball club was required by law
to keep its principal place of
business in the District.
However, District Court Judge
David A. Pine ruled against
Murphy, saying the ball club
was organized under a 1901
District law imposing no restric-
ton on the principal place Of
business, and that a 1854 law
which applied this restriction
had no force in this case.
Review Denied
Judge Pine was upheld by
United States Court Of Appeals
in May, 1859, and the Supreme
Court later refused to review
this decision.
Murphy then sued again,
this time seeking to block sale
of Griffith Stadium and the
farm club properties.

argued that his client has rea-

CHUCK STARS FOR So MINUTES

Coach Paul Brown drove him
to the unusual feat of playing
SO minutes and a key role in
the Philadelphia Eagles 1923

terday.
The former Penn All-Ameri-

at him real loud" when some

quarter.
HE laughed real smirk-

you quit before you get hurt?'
Il hollered back something
at him that is unprintable, but
in the heat Of battle you're
liable to say anything. Anyhow,
his laughing annoyed me.
I'VE wanted to win badly
from the start because of the
previous humiliating loss, but
when he laughed that only
made me want to win worse.
The weather helped me GO
the SO minutes, too. It was a
cool day, about in the high 40s

And then there's the mental
thing, no matter what we do in
life. If you tell yourself you can
do something, you can. I kept
talking to myself saying, you're
not tired and I wasn't.
Bednarik, who played most OF
the game with a pulled leg mus
Gle, said he worried MORE about
Cleveland's Jim BroNA and
Bobby Mitchell because no
team has a combination Ne
them. Corner linebackers
have to help by coming back
into the center of the line to
stop Brown. You have to
contain Mitchell. because once
he skirts a corner he can fake so
well he doesn't need blocking"
