Five boats originally participated in the race. The “Ariel” left the harbor of Foochow on May 30, at 10:30 a. m. and the “Taiping” twenty minutes later. Ninety-nine days later, on Sept. 5, the “Ariel” passed Deal, England, at 8 a. m., while the “Taiping” followed eight minutes later. The distance from Foochow to Deal is 16,000 miles.
The premium of 10 shillings a ton was divided between the two contestants, as the “Taiping” contended that she had sailed twenty minutes after her rival,

CIRCLE WILL HAVE PREMIERE EVENT
‘Dancers in the Dark’ to Be Given Following Regular 8 P. M. Showing Thursday of 'Behind the Mask.’ THE Circle Theater management announces another of the special Thursday night premieres which they have been featuring during the past few weeks. At the one this week, Miriam Hopkins’ new picture, “Dancers in the Dark,” will be presented. All persons attending the final showing of “Behind the Mask.” at 8 o'clock Thursday evening, will be invited to remain for the premiere of the new film at 10 o’clock. The regular showing of “Dancers .in the Dark” will begin Friday. In her newest film Miss Hopkins progresses from a sophisticated,
wise-cracking, loose-minded dance hall hostess, to a contemplative, determined, self-respecting woman, hopeful of meriting the affection of the man she loves. The cause of this decided change is explained in the role of William Collier Jr., who has the male lead opposite the star. Collier’s role is that of a musician playing in an orchestra at the night club where Miss Hopkins is employed. Comedy is supplied in “Dancers in the Dark,” by the two Paramount laugh-makers, Jack Oakie and Eugene Pallette. Walter Hiers, Lyda Roberti, De Witt Jennings, and Alberta Vaughn have important character roles in this film. A variety short subject program and an organ solo will augment the entertainment bill. tt tt tt NEW WILL ROGERS PICTURE BOOKED AT APOLLO Will Rogers, celebrated humorist, is to be seen at the Apollo, opening Friday next for a limited engagement in his latest picture, “Business and Pleasure,” adapted from the best seller novel, “The Plutocrat,” by Booth Tarkington. The story, written by Tkrkington primarily as a defense of the typical American tourist and also as an answer to the satirical attacks on the native son by Sinclair Lewis in his “Main Street,” and “Babbitt,” is thought to retain much of its delicious flavor on the screen with Will Rogers in the role of Earl Tinker, middlewestern manufacturer, who takes his family on a sight-seeing tour to the Mediterranean—and incidentally combines pleasure with a brilliant piece of business. Aboard the de luxe liner, he meets, among others, Lawrenpe Ogle, enacted by Joel McCrea, a playwright, who is enjoying the fruits of a

Chess Champion in Three Sittings—Alexandre Louis Honore Deschapelles (1789-1847), president of the French Chess Club and leading player of his time, learned the game in three sittings. According to his own story, he watched Bernard (a famous chess player) for a whole evening, and after three sittings reached his full strength as a player. The only man to whom he ever lost a match was W. Lewis. Due to the extraordinary facility with which he mastered this game, he considered the study of opening analysis in chess a waste of time.

BILL TO CURB INJUNCTIONS IS SUREJO PASS Only 13 Votes Cast Against Measure in Test of House Strength. BY RUTH FINNEY Times Staff Corresoondent WASHINGTON, March 9.—Senator George W. Norris and other friends of the anti-injunction bill in the senate will decide today whether to accept the measure passed late Tuesday by the house, i or to insist on the somewhat more liberal wording of their own bill. If they decide to accept the house , bill the measure will go to President Hoover some time this week, after completion of a few final formalities. If they make a fight for the free-press amendments adopted j in the senate they will insist on ! their own version of the bill and j send the two to conference for compromises on which both houses can agree. In either case the fight, extending over a quarter of a century or more, to limit the use of the injunction in federal courts is nearing its close. Enactment Seen Certain Only thirteen votes were cast in the house against the bill, while 363 votes were cast for it. On the last senate roll call the vote was 5 to 75 for adoption of the bill. These overwhelming majorities assure enactment, even if President Hoover should see fit to veto the measure, as Representative James M. Beck of Pennsylvania urged on the floor of the house. Beck was joined in his opposition by Representative Blanton of Texas, who delayed a final vote by parliamentary tactics, offered amendments, and finally moved to recommit the bill. Besides these two, the only other | member of the house to speak j against the bill was Representative j Royal C. Johnson, who feared the national guard would have to be called to settle all labor disputes if | the injunction were not used. Senate for Broader Bill The house passed the bill substantially as it was reported from the house judiciary committee. The only important change was made on mbtion of Representative Christopherson of South Dakota to limit jury trials to persons charged with contempt under five specific * sec- ; tions of the act. The effect of the amendment is | to bar jury trials in anti-trust con- ! tempt cases, and padlocking cases under the dry acts. The senate, instead of limiting ! the jury trial provisions of the bill j extended them to cover all contempts, having in mind specifically cases brought against newspaper editors and reporters. The house refused to accept this provision, and instead limited the scope of the provision even more. Passage Expected Seventeen members of the house i supported by rising vote a motion to recommit the anti-injunction ! bill. But when the final roll call was taken, on a motion to substitute the senate bill, amended to agree with the wording of the house bill, in other words a motion to expedite final enactment, only thirteen representatives voted no. They were: Republicans—Beck. Pa.; Darrow, Pa.; French. Idaho: Hollister. Ohio; Johnson, South Dakota: Luce, Mass.: Rich. Pa.: Rogers. Mass.: Taber. New York; Underhill. Mass.: Vestal. Ind.: Watson, Pa. Democrats—Blanton. Tex. Hoosiers Feel Pressure By Times Special WASHINGTON, March 9.—Representative Albert H. Vestal, Republican, of Anderson, who has an-! nounced he will not be a candidate ! for re-election to congress in the J new Eleventh district, was the only ! member of the Indiana delegation ! in the house who voted against the | anti-injunction bill when it passed ‘ the house Tuesday night. The vote on the measure to pro- 1 tect organized labor from the terrorism of courts was not a comfortable one for any of the Indiana congressmen. In the last few days their offices have been flooded with letters and telegrams from Indiana ; manufacturers and heads of large ! utility and industrial corporations, j bitterly protesting against the bill. In the house debate, Representa- j tives Arthur H. Greenwood of Washington and Samuel B. Pettingill of South Bend, both spoke in j favor of the bill.

[THEY TELL ME
BY BEN STERN r T''HERE can be little doubt that the blame for the failure in prosecuting the contest against the seating of Albert Vestal of Anderson as congressman from the old Eighth district, according to the records, properly rests upon the shoulders of Claude Ball of Muncie. Ball has blamed the Democratic state committee for the lack of vigor in attacking the seating of Vestal who was declared winner by nine votes. But it is known that representa- | tives of the state committee went to Muncie the day following the 1930 general election, and accompanied by a reporter from The Times I gathered mutilated and burned ballots. tt St St These, with the notice of the contest, were sent to Representative | Arthur Greenwood, who turned them over to the house committee on elections. But Ball did not file his own noj tice of contest, and when, at the request of Speaker Garner, the fight 1 was resumed recently it was found | that because of this defection on ! the part of Ball he forfeited the I seat almost a year ago. Yet in spite of this, Albert Stump ! was retained by the committee to prosecute the fight. Stump made a complete investigation and declared that, although there can be nc doubt that irregularities were perpetrated in the election, nothing now can be done about the seat because of Ball's delay, and so the congressional elections committee will rule.

that Vestal personally perpetrated a fraud in order to declare the seat vacant, and this, of course, can not be proved. tt tt a It is a peculiar thing that Ball never has vouchsafed an explanation for the lack of interest which he himself seemed to have exhibited in the contest. With only a nine-vote margin and the indisputable fact that ballots were mutilated by markings and burning, and that many were thrown into the waste basket in one Muncie polling place, it would seem logical that any man making the race would have carried the fight to Washington, inasmuch as the state committee was willing to defray part of the cost. Yet reports are that Ball blames the state committee for not continuing action. The Muncie man was seeking the post, and to the layman it would appear that if the job was worth running for, it was worth fighting for. Any explanation would be interesting.
