.12 STEVENSON TO BECOME TURF KING Boise Jockey Rides More Winners to Distance Rival By ORLO ROBERTSON NEW YORK, Dec. 26 ley Stevenson, 19-year-old Boise Idaho, jockey who year ago was almost unknown to the turf, prac tically clinched 1935 riding honors today when he rodo four winners a the fairgrounds, New Orleans. With ones of his most brillian exhibitions of horsemanship, Ste venson ran his total number victories for the year to an even 200. Meanwhile, his nearest rival Wayne Wright of Rexburg, Idaho again went without a winner a Tropical park and found hlmsel trailing the young apprentice by 11, with only four days of competi lion remaining. Oddly enough, Stevenson was up on the winners of the first two and the last two races at the New Orleans oval.

He took the first with Mrs. H. Pearson's Miss Twinkling the second with E. K. Bryson'i Mullet, the sixth with Mrs.

A. Schuetzc's Sleepy Joe and final event with W. T. Lowe's Big Torch With the exception of Mullet, held at two to one, all of Stevenson's mounts paid good prices. Sleepy Joe returned straight, Miss Twinkling, $14.20, and Big Torch, $38.80, after his unexpected triumph.

Stevenson was in the money in two other races. At Tropical park, where a third was the best Wright could do, Mrs. W. Plunkott Stewart's Laughing Sun, idle since his winning effort at Saratoga last August, came through in the six furlongs of the Dinner Key purse. 'Hoodlum' Fans Draw Criticism (Continued from Preceding Pace) football programs and displayed prominently on.

signs near stadia. In conclusion, President Lewis laid: "How vital it is to take a. stand against lawlessness and the mob spirit illustrated by the tragic events of the past-few days. When high of America find necessary to seek refuge In a foreign land, when small time politicians seek to curry favor -with big time criminals, when widespread maudlin sympathy is expressed for felons, it is high time that we seek to strengthen character, courage, and integrity." Another Ma' Stevens of New, York university favored strong arm methods rather than educational campaigns In dealing-with tha spectator problem Police Protection Needed "As long as colleges accept hoodlum dollars help support football," he said, "let the colleges be prepared to spend some of those dollars to provide proper police protection for tho fans. Let them hlro husky blueeoats to throw out the.

hoodlums if they become objectionable. I think that is the sola- tion. Training should start In the home, but if they are not gentlemen when old enough to go to football treat them as gentle men." Toastmaster John McGovern of New 'York agreed with Coach Steven's. In his strong arm suggestion. Walter Okeson, treasurer of Lehlgh university, chairman of national rules committee and chairman of the Football Officials' association, said modern football crowds displayed much moro rowdyism than In the old days.

This, he believed, was be cause "there Is too much of the rabble in the modern crowd, rabble to whom the actual game means nothing." He said the spectator problem was one of administration for college authorities to handle- arid, that officials could do llttlo about it. Captain Frederic Snyder, an authority on secondary education said he believed that proper educational methods would convince the public that was bad manners to be a drunken rowdy at a game He deplored Colonel Lindbergh's departure when he could have been such a help In leading a crusade in his homo land against lawlessness and mob spirit.

Darling, resigned chic of the biological survey, in his annual report, said that "in com parison with the supply of waterfowl over the country as a whole concentration of birds in the Bear River migratory bird refuge Utah, has been encouraging."

Tho operation was described by r. Oswald Swinney Lowsley, a ember of the hospital de- irtmont of urology. The technique, 111 in tho experimental stage, was jvoloped in the department of ex- irimental surgery at New York as'pital. Ages Range to 66 After successful experimentation i dogs, tho operation was tried, on men, whoso ages ranged from to 66, Some had not led the lysical life of. young manhood for "The results were perfect In nine uses," Dr.

Lowsley said. Tho operation consists of tighten- of muscles through the use of iromic ribbon gut. and it does not. elude any process of graft ing or troduction of 'foreign tissue into 10 body of the subject. Dr.

Lowsloy ascribed it In these "The ribbon gut is used to tight- 1 en, the bulbocavernosus miiscle over the corpus spor.giosum by plica- tion from side to side, two or even three sutures being: used. The ischio- cavernosus muscle on each side is similarly treated. "Tho operation has been per- formed upon 14 men whose ages were 22, 29, 31, 33, 38, 30, 40, 42, 42, fl 47, 58, 63, 65 and 6(5 years, respectively. Regains Powers Tho 47-year-old man, who for eight years had lacked virility, re- I gained tha powers of a decade ago. Most of the younger men fared still better.

"The operation must be skilfully performed," Dr. Lowsley said, "with just the right amount of shortening of the muscles to accomplish the desired result." If the muscles are too tight, ho explained, pain will result; If not tight enough, the rejuvenation will not be accomplished. i The operation is too new, Dr. LowKicy was cnrcful to point out, to determine how long the rcjuve- nntion may be expected to continue. But cho operation, evcu though still In the cxperimcntnl stands i ns an important new weapon pointing tho way for specialists to restore yirility, ho said, Shouse Questions Farley's Stand on Campaign Funds Says Postmaster Genera May Be Violating Federal Law WASHINGTON, Dee.

26 Jouett Shouae, president of th American Liberty league, tonlgh questioned whether Fostmaste General Farley was not "indirectly 1 if not "directly" soliciting campaigi funds in violation of the law. Replying to Forbes Morgan acting secretary of the Democratic national committee, who said thi $50-a-seat invitations to the Jack son day Democratic rally dinner here next month were not sent ou in Farley's name, Shouse said: "It is wholly immaterial whether Mr. Farley's name appeared on the Invitations. Mr. Farley is chairman of the Democratic national com' mittee.

Also he is postmaster gen oral in Mr. Roosevelt's cabinet and therefore, an 'officer of the Unltec States." 1 Shouse then cited a section of th- crimlnal code forbidding "any officer" of the government "from dl rectly or indirectly" soliciting any assessments or contributions for political purposes. "Even if Mr. Farley, had nothing to do with the mailing of these Invitation's," Shouse said, "now he has knowledge of the fact that they were sent on behalf of the committee on which he is chairman for the purpose of securing contributions to the Democratic natioua campaign fund, and if with this knowledge he permits his com mittee to receive such contributions Is he not concerned with the solici tation and receipt of contribution from other officials or employes of the government and is he not, in directly if. not directly, participat ing therein?"
