Mai 30 (U.R) Many persons have asked me in the past ten years why 1 chose to be a sports writer. They wanted to know why. with so many promising fields open, including almost unlimited oppo-- ; tunities in the virgin fields >f llama and yak raising. I should devote my span of years on thi.c i earth to anything so transient as i sports writing. My answer invariably has l»een the same: "My professional position enables |me to witness world-shaking I events.” For example, take yesterday s world-shaker. Because of the fact I stood on equal social footing with loe Jacobs; because 1 knew Pe"e the Goat well enough to call him simply by his first name.

SEEK MURDERER OF TWO WOMEN Middle - -Aged. Man Is Sought As New ork Mystery Slayer New Ynrk. Mar. 30. <u.R)— The shadowy figure of n middle aged' man of exfaordinary strength and steel nerve emerged today from police investigation as the killer of; beautiful Veronica Gedeon, her, mother, lend a boarder at their apartment. Detectives could offer no clue to the identity of the triple murderer, j Gray lialiv uuder the finger nail* of the 20 year-old artist's model ’ and her 54 year-old mother, Mary, Indicated that he was well along in years. That he had strong muscles was apparent In the terrible’ Injuries Inflicted cm Frank Byrnes, the boarder. An autopsy disclosed bis motive for bc.th mother and daughter had been assault and detectives agreed that from the method of the slayings he must have attacked and slain the mother then calmly sat down to await Veronica, killing Byrnes with an ice pick when the club bartender came home in the meanwhile. Still in custody today, although IHilice yesterday had announced his alibi was perfect, was Georges (big Frenchy) Gueret, an unemployed chauffeur who had once roomed with the Gedeons and who had' been looking for them the night of the murders. A powerfully built | man of 46. he insisted two blood- j stained handkerchiefs found in his) room had been used to stop nosebleeding. Nevertheless the handkerchiefs were being analyzed by city chemists. Gueret. who is said to have a tendency to annoy women when intoxicated. was reported to have been under the influence of liquor Saturday night when he asked for the Gedeons at a lodging house. they used to operate. Police stressed, however, that his account of his movements at the' time of the crime was holding up against all attacks. Detectives went deeply info the l private fife of the Gedeons, spurred by the belief of Josph Gedeon, estranged husband and father of the victims, that his pleasure-lov-ing daughter may have tantalized one of her many suitors until, unbalanced by jealousy, he was driven to commit the murders. "Ronnie made fools of lots of men,” he said. "One of them must have killed her with my wife ana the roomer. It's hard to say now but Ronnie was wild and she was wilful. She wouldn't listen to her mother or to me." Solons Drop Plan To Limit Ticket Prices Springfield. 111., Mar 30—(U.PJ— Illinois' legislators appeared today to have given up the idea of try-
