Sewer. Improvement dis trict No. 1 account was closed by tho paying $2330.6$ on warrants," accord ing to the annual report of the city treasurer filed at tho January meet ing of tho city council. ' . . . Whereas the sower district No. 3 fund showed an overdraft at tho close of 1930, tho report et tho closo of 1031 shows four bonds were paid off with Interest amounting to 2052, while tho general fund shows an Increased in debtedness of but $1761.78.

Tho report shows that tho diet Indebtedness In tho water fund 'Was reduced $1401.84 lost year. Sport Slants Ky Alan J. Gould (Associated Press Sports Editor) Ray Eaibutl, the only American to Win a foot-race "ori the "flat'1' In tho 192U Olympics, will not do any galloping; for Uncle Sam at. Los An geles. The great Syracuse athlete has hung up his spikes for goca and tho only chasing he docs now la in pur suit of .insurance prospects. Didn't he agree with us that the U. 8. A. had good prospect of re gaining some lost 'prcotlge by romp ing off with tho Olympic thort dis tance races this year up to and ln- eluding the 800 meters? "I'll go so far as ' to say I think wo should win back the sprint championships, even If Percy Wil liams is' back tn shape to run for Canada and defend 'his titles," said Barbutl, "but I doubt very much If - wo win cither " the 400 or 800 me ters. Beyond that it will Just be a romp for Nurmi and tho rest of the Finns," Tho reasons? "Well, it looks like we have lost Vic Williams, tho Southern Califor nian who equalled the world 440 record at Franklin field, due to ill nesa. "Ben Eastman of Stanford Is our best prospect at the middle dis tances, and ho may come through, but ho has not had much expert - enco. "You will remember that as good a quarter mllor as Bud Spencer, also of Stanford, did not even make tho 400-meter team In 1028. Tho best ho could do was get on the relay squad. : - AND TODAY HERE'S TAMARAr A lot of promenade at Miami Httieli, r Flu.f have wondered about tlie Identity of the sun bathing enthusiast pictured here.

' ,fX understand Douzlas Lowe, win ner of the 800 in the last two Olympiads, Is training for a come back. You have seen htm run and how! He's the smoothest foot racer I ever watched and a grand sportsman, to boot. . ; , ''Another great English runner is O. it. Rampllng, the quarter -miler, who has been running close to world's record time. The German's have some Xlno quarter and half mllcrs, too. ' "Ladoumegue, the Frenchman, has broken world's records for tho quar-tor-mllo and mile and he would bo tough to beat at tho half. Sera Mar tin' of Franco has broken the 800 meter record and will have to be figured on. ' "As I see It, about tho only Olym pic track and fteld events we can bo fairly hopeful of winning are tho 100, 200. high Jump, pole vault, relays and high hurdles. Last time wo didn't win the sprints or the hurdles." Wind Up At The Windmill A Strictly Home-Owned Bakery Ih-ltlsh Speed Speaking of Rampllng, the Brit ish quarter-ml lor, it may bo noted that this runner was clocked in the phenomenal timo of 43 3-5 seconds for tho last 400-meter leg of a, 1600 meter relay race in which tho Brit ish beat tho Germans at Cologne lato lust year. 'Tho world's record Is 47 seconds, held by Spencer of Stanford, and so far as I know this is tho first tlmo any runner, oven in a relay, where ho has the benefit of a galloping start, has ever "broken" that time. Lord Burleigh rah on the sanie team with Rampllng. Tho British wero timed In 3:14.6, within a second of tho official world's record set by an American all-star Olympic combination at London tn 1928.

Rail Agreement Between Japan, China Revealed ' TOKYO, Jan. 16 Recent de nials at Nanking of the existence of an agreement .prohibiting the Chl ncso from building Manchurlan rail ways paralleling Japanese lines brought from the government Thurs day a statement revealing the text of a secret understanding concluded between the two countries in 1905. It stipulated that no parallel rail way lines should be built by China, tho statement said, and was signed by. 10 representatives of" China and Japan. An English summary of its provisions was. submitted by Japan in 1006 to the British and American governments in strictest confidence. It never was made public, the gov ernment statement said, at the spe cial request of the Chinese, who ex plained that they did not want the Cbineso people to know about the arrangement for political reasons. ' Denials Voiced Recently Dr, Wellington Koo, then foreign minister of China, asserted that no such agreement ever was made. It was In view of this and other denials that Thursday's state ment was issued. Japan . contends that China has violated the agree ment time. and again in spite of re peated protests.
