RODE ~ TRIPLE CROWN WINNER
Johnny Lotus Enters
Hall Of Fame TONIGHT
By JOSEPH B. KELLY
Star Racing Editor

BALTIMORE, Nov. "a
Johnny Lotus admittance to
Pimlico's Hall Of Fame tonight
revives memories of an IRON
horse feat that would cause
present-uay trainers to quake
in their boots.
One Of the high points of
LOTUS career was winning
racing's first Triple Crown with
Sir Barton in 1919. But what
a far cry was Sir Barton's
method Of achieving the crown
from the modern pattern of
racing. which demands plenty
Of rest and recuperation time
between races.
Sir Barton, who was owned
by j. K. L. Ross, won the
Kentucky Derby on May 10.
Back there in the nonjet age
the thoroughbred was at PIN
leo in time to capture the
Preakness four days later! At
present. the Derby and the
PreakneSs are scheduled two
weeks apart, and some train
ers would like more time be-
tween the events.
Sir Barton completed the
sweep June II by taking the
Belmont Stakes. He was trained
by H. Guy Bedwell, who died
a few years ago.
Staged Rousing Finishes
LOTUS. during a riding ca
reer which lasted from 1909
through 1919, won better than
"a per cent of his races. He
was regarded as one of the
most polished of all hooters,
equally at home at any dis
lance, capable Of handling q
year-olds and adept at staging
q rouSlng finish.
After his riding was at an end,
he turned to training and is
well remembered by fans in
this area as the man who sad
died Pompoon to finish second
to War Admiral in the 1887
Preakness. He then sent the
same horse out to win the
Dixie Handicap the following
season.

Coach Jim Lee Howell, COM
menting on Mel Triplett's FUN
BILE that led to the Eagles de-
cisive touchdown last Sunday,
said "he's a bucking and snort
ing type Of runner. There are
mix-ups on the handoffs some
times because the quarterback
can't always tell whether he's
bucking or snorting."
It was a tragic day in New
York. A special policeman,
stricken with a heart attack,
was taken to the Giants dress
ing room and died as Halfback
Frank Clifford was brought in
on a stretcher with a severe
conclusion. Jack Stroud also
suffered a conclusion.
Out in Milwaukee, Green Bay
Packer fans, stunned by their
favorites' loss to the Los An
geles Rams, found little solace
in the offensive play of Half
back Tom Moore from Wander
bilt. The loss didn't finish the
Packers title hopes, but put a
decided crimp in them. Moore
raced SO yards for one Green
Bay touchdown. He was on the
Redskins draft list last year,
but the Packers beat them to
him.
And down in Dallas, Clint
Murchison and Bedford Wynne
must wonder if getting a NIL
franchise was smart after all.
The attendance was given as
10000, which isn't nearly
enough to pay the freight. If
it's any consolation to them,
the Dallas Texans Of the rival
American Football ague
aren't drawing anybody. either.
But let's not worry about New
York, Green Bay or Dallas.
We've got enough troubles right
here at home.

A TCH|SON'S
ANGLE
az LEWIS r ATcHlSoN

The natives are getting rest
less. Or didn't you hear the
boos and jeers at Sundays
Redskins-Cardinal game. Ac-
tually, the Redskins did no
worse than the Giants, Pack
ers, Browns, Lions and Dallas
Cowboys. All lost. But some of
those-Dallas excepted-can
be expected to win a game
now and then, but not the
Redskins. They look helplessly
hopeless.
It seems time for Coach
Mike Nixon to throw some of
his well-laid plans in the ash
can and go for broke in the
last four games. He's got
nothing to lose and might win
a game and confound the
critics who're betting the team
won't win another one. Nixon
has been remarkably patient
with the club. Owner George
Marshall, who is beginning to
show the strain of another
losing season. has been re-
markably patient with Mike.
It's the natives who are rest
less.
We're beginning to hear the
nasty little rumors that cliques
exist on the squad, that the
players are carousing and
don't give a boot whether they
win or lose. AS Mike said,
you're bound to hear such
things when a team is losing.
but it isn't pleasant for any,
body even vaguely associated
with the club.
y y -
Mike insists that he's got to
go with his best quarterback
and that the best Is Ralph
Guglielmi. But if he can't win
with his best why not try the
second best, or the worst? They
might get lucky. Why not
move Dick James back to de-
Tense? Put Dick Haley in with
him and throw some of the
rockies out of there. It's all
right to bring a youngster
along, but not at the public's
expense. A guy who plunks
down IS for a seat doesn't want
to see a schooling session.
Why not use Johnny Olszew-
ski to halfback and restore Don
Bosseler to the No. / fullback-
ing job? At least they'll move
ahead and not run for the side
line. If Sam Horner has so
much speed give him a chance
on offense. Ed Vereb, too. They
can't hurt a backfield that gains
81 yards on the ground. Why
not give Tom Osborne a chance
to display his pass-catching
talents? Granted that there is
nothing wrong with Bill Ander-
son or Joe Walton, would il
hurt to have another who can
go get them? We think not.

penses he might have accrued
in taking the Dodgers there
three years ago. OMalley has
said that compensation to the

Il think. along with several
others, that the American

Gop|lers Edge
Iowa, Rebels
For Poll Lead
By the Associated Press

Minnesota leapfrogged back
into first place in the weekly
Associated Press football rank
ings today as the fight for the
national college championship
headed into a photo finish.
The title will be decided by
next weeks final APP poll OF
the season.
Minnesota barely edged out
Iowa and Mississippi for the No.
spot. The Gophers finished
with 4241a points to 4l71a for
Iowa. Mississippi, in third
place. had 1893 points.
Washington. the Big Five
champion and host team in the
Rose Bowl, moved up one notch
to fourth with 249 points, while
Missouri, the leader last week,
tumbled to fifth with 24l points
after taking a 1877 beating
from Kansas.
Navy Rated Seventh
Arkansas, the Cotton Bowl
host, was sixth, followed by
Navy, Auburn, Ohio State and
Kansas.
Both Minnesota and Iowa
have finished their seasons,
each with an 81 record and
tied for. the Big Ten cham
pionship.
Mississippi, the only team in
the top 10 that hasn't been de-
feated, still has one more
game. The Rebels. who boast
an S-0-1 record, play Missis-
sippi State in their finale Sat-
urday.
Now the question is: If
Mississippi wins impressively
over its arch-rival, will the 48
solicitors be Influenced enough
to move the Rebels to the top?
In any event. this probably
will be the closest finish in the
poll since it was established in
1886. Incidentally, Minnesota
won the championship that
year.
Iowa Leads in Firsts
This week the poll was so
close that one selector couldn't
separate Minnesota and Iowa.
He resolved his dilemma by
giving each half Of his first
place vote.
Iowa received the most first
place votes. 171a. Minnesota
had 1914 and Mississippi,
which was idle last Saturday.
IS. But the Gophers got to
the top on the basis of a
stronger show of seconds and
thirds.
Both Minnesota and Iowa
wound up operations last Sat
urday. Minnesota crushed
Wisconsin, 27-7, and Iowa
whitewashed Notre Dame, $50.
Duke plummeted right out
Of the top 10. The Blue Devils
were No. 6 last week, but they
fell before North Carolina, 7-6.
Arkansas. Navy, Auburn and
Ohio State all moved up one
notch, and Kansas popped
back into the top 10 for the
first time since October 10.

ROCHESTER, N. Y, April
% (AP).-A scientist said yes
terday that a possible cancer
producing substance is released
into the air we breathe by the
everyday burning of home and
industrial fuels.
The substance, benzpyrene,
also is found in tobacco tars,
said DR.. Eugene Sawicki of
the United States Public Health
Services air pollution engineer
ing center at Cincinnati.
DR.. Sawicki cited no direct
correlation between benzpy-
rene and cancer in his report
to the Industrial Health Con-
ference here. But he said that
the difference in the exposure
to the substance among urban
and non-urban dwellers cor
responds to the higher Incl
dence of lung cancer among
city dwellers.
Worse Than Pack-a-Day
Dr.. Sawicki said comparative
studies in cities and suburban
communities show that a non
smoker living in large Ameri-
can city is exposed to more
benzpyrene than a pack-a- day
cigarette smoker living in the
suburbs.
He said the substance, formed
largely by the combustion of
heating fuels and gasoline, is
more prevalent in the air of
Eastern cities because there is
more heating there. He added
that the incidence of benz
pyrene is highest in the winter.
Another speaker, DR.. David

T-Men Stage
Gaming Raids
BY the Associated Press

With stopwatch precision,
United States Treasury agents
invaded backroom bookie joints
and numbers, rooms in nearly
so cities across the country
yesterday.
BY mid-morning today, 7S
arrests had been reported and
there we're indications the total
might go as high as 100.
The T-men, after weeks and
months of careful investiga-
ton, sprang their traps at
more than 80 separate loca-
tions - backrooms Of candy
stores, taverns, private subur-
ban homes, hotel rooms. In a
few cases their quarry tenn
porarily escaped the net.
The basis for the raids was
this: Under Federal law, any
gambler must purchase a $50
tax stamp from the Govern
ment, even if gambling is IL
legal in his State. If he doesn't
have the stamp, he faces a
maximum five year prison
sentence and $4,000 fine.
Police Cooperate
Cooperating with the T.
men were State and local po-
lice. United States marshals
and agents of the Internal
Revenue Services Alcohol Tax
Division.
Though they found some evi-
dence of connections between
widely separated gam bling
operations, officials said, there
was no immediate proof that
any we're tied together in a
Nationwide crime syndicate.
Many of the raids scooped up
slot machines and other equip
ment and sizeable amounts Of
cash.
In one candy store backroom
at Hampton, Va. it took the
T-men two hours to make a
list of all the equipment seized,
along with $4,000 in cash.
The raids originally we're set
for 81 cities in % States. But
in several places, such as Tam
pa, Fla, and Milwaukee, plans
were changed at the last
minute.
1RS officials said one raid
was scheduled in Prince
Georges County, Md, but
was called off. The closest
raid to the Washington area
took place in B Baltimore
where three persons were ar
restedO
Some Raids Baked
A naval station at Quonset
Point, r. l., was on the raid
ing list, but a United States
attorney decided the agents
didn't have enough evidence
for a search warrant.
They were baked, too, at
Pawtucket, r. I. Armed with
search warrants for Apart
mentS l and 3 in a rooming
house, they found one vacant
and the other occupied by a
respectable nurse who had
nothing to do with gambling.
Someone had switched the
apartment numbers, and the
T-men were stymied because
their warrants specified only

Election year politics prom
iSes to dominate the remainder
Of this session of Congress, with
Republicans and Democrats
jockeying for popular positions
on the major domestic cam
paign issues.
The Democrats, who control
both houses, appear ready to
60 beyond administration rec
concentrations in such fields as
housing, aid to depressed areas,
school construction, and pay
raises for government employees.
The Republicans will try to
picture their opponents as
budget-busting Spenders. This
became apparent yesterday
when Senate Republican Leader
Dirksen made public a state
ment suggesting that if all the
spending programs that have
been introduced should pass,
the Federal budget of 1861
would be close to the 500 bill
lion mark.
Recovering Asked
Pointing up the variety of
suggestions expected from both
sides, Senator Proxmire, DEM
ocrat of Wisconsin, today asked
congressional leaders to con-
slider reconvening Congress after
the July political conventions.
The Senator said there is a
mountain" of important legis-
lation pending and expressed
fear that Congress cannot make
a good record if it tries to ad-
journ before the first conven-
ton on July IL.
Neither Majority Leader
johnson Of Texas nor Senator
Dirksen made any immediate
comment on the suggestion.
Presid ent Eisenhower has
submitted a budget calling for
expenditures of only $79.8 bill
lion and receipts of $84 billion.
which would leave a $4.2 billion
surplus for reduction of the ma
tional debt.
Cites Spending Cuts
Speaker Rayburn met the
Republican spending charges
with a calculation showing that
on 8 of the appropriation bills
passed thus far Congress has
cut $244 million from the ad-
ministration requests.
Senator DirkSen retorted that
passage of the $25l million de-
pressed areas bill, already ap-
proved by the Senate, would
wipe out this saving.
Republicans also argue that
cuts in new appropriations do
not necessarily produce a cor
responding reduction in the
total spending figure. They
point out that spending in any
fiscal year comes partly from
new appropriations and partly
from past appropriations, es-
pecially on the delivery of mill
tary weapons which take several
years to build.
Aged Bill Top Issue
Health insurance for the
aged promises to be one of the
big controversies from now un-
til adjournment, with the ad-
miniStration fighting any COM
pulSory plan as part of the
social security system which
would increase payroll taxes.
The White House is still
working on an alternative VOL
untary approach, and Senator
Dirksen indicated the admini-
stration bill may be unveiled
before the end of the week.
President Eisenhower told his
