Racing News
Corrupts Police
Washington, April 21 (U.R) -
The Los Angeles police chief
told congressmen today that the
Continental News Service, which
distributes racing information,
is "corrupting police depart
ments throughout the country."
Mai. Gen. William Arthur
Worton, retired marine, made
the charge before a senate com
merce subcommittee investigat
ing crime. Ho followed Mayor
Fletcher Bowron, of Los An
geles. Worton said that any law to
control gambling must "hit at
the people" who run the Con
tinental News Service. He said
the service has headquarters in
Cleveland and is controlled by
one Edward J. McBrido.
"They arc the people corrupt
ing police departments through
out the country," he said. "They
are the people ruining our young
manhood."
Both Bowron and his police
chief endorsed a proposed jus
tice department bill being con
sidcrcd by the subcommittee to
outlaw the intersatc transmis
sion of certain gambling infor
motion.
Bowron charged that the lent
ent attitude of California super
ior court judges is at least part
ly responsible for the "big men
ace" of organized bookmaking
in his state.

Acheson Raps
Russian Moves
Washington, April 21 W) Sec
retary Acheson said today he
believes the world is in a serious
situation because of recent
moves by Russia but that he does
not see it moving into any armed
conflict.
At a news conference, the sec
retary of state said there is ten
sion in the world now and the
things the Russians are doing
are far from helpful.
He accused the Soviets of try
ing to stir up trouble in several
areas, citing their stand on the
Baltic airplane incident, their
accusations against the western
powers over - Trieste and their
renewed demands for special
rights in the Dardanelles strait.
In response to a question,
Acheson also came out against
any public congressional inves
tigation of U. S. policy in Ger
many such as has been pro
posed by Senator Gillette (D.
Iowa).
Acheson said the members of
congress can find out all they
want to know about German
policy without public hearings.
On the Russians, Acheson:
1. Declared the Soviet charges
that an American B-29 airplane
violated Soviet territory and
fired at Red fighter aircraft
are "fictitious allegations." He
said the Russians know they are
not true.
2. Restated American opposi
tion to Russian demands for spe
cial rights in the Turkish-con
trolled Dardanelles. A renew
al of these demands was made
by the Soviet navy newspaper.
Red Fleet, a few days ago.
3. Assailed Soviet accusations
that the western allies are sup
pressing human rights and es
tablishing military and naval
bases in Trieste. Acheson called
that "nonsense" and a repeti
tion of a number of outworn
arguments with the addition of
some new wholly false allega
tions of violations of the Italian
peace treaty."
Dog Adopts School,
Pupils Buy License
Only six written words on a
printed form filed in the Mar
ion county clerk's office were
needed Friday to formalize a
strange adoption in Woodburn.
The words were in a receipt
book for dog licenses. Sixth
grade, Belle Passi School, Wood
burn, were the words.
A homeless dog, according to
the letter which accompanied
the license fee, adopted the sixth
graders. The animal, who like
ills new home, refused to leave
the class for the week-end.
The students, worried that the
dog catcher might take their
friend into custody, took a col
lection for the dog license fee.

Connie Mack
Opens Season
Philadelphia, April 21 (If)
Bundled in a heavy black top
coat, 87-year-old Connie Mack
waved his familiar score card
from tfie Philadelphia Athletics
dugout for the 50th straight year
today as his team opened the
1950 home season against the
Boston Red Sox.
An estimated 10,000.fans turn
ed out on a cloudy, cold after
noon to celebrate "Connie Mack
day" in Philadelphia. Best wish
es for success in his Golden Ju
bilee season poured in on the
grand old man of baseball from
President Truman, Vice Presi
dent Barkley, governors from
states all over the United States
and just plain "Joe," the base
ball fan.
The impressive ceremonies
started in Mayor Bernard Sam
uel's office with an official pro
clamation of Connie Mack day.
A motorcade left City hall and
proceeded to Shibe park with
the Athletics' owner and mana
ger sitting in an open touring
car. The cold wind appeared to
have little effect on him.
At the ball park, Edwin J.
Pollock, sports editor of the
Philadelphia Bulletin, presented
Mack with several truck loads
of scrolls signed by baseball fans
the world over.
