The Chicago freight tunnel sys- tem, as it is called, was built in 4 eight years at a cost of about $30,- 000,000. Now the operating com- pany is beginning to worry about transportation trucks. Year after year, 24 hours a day, the tiny electric trains in the tun- nel system have been plying back and forth beneath the Chicago river, down to Lake Michigan and west to warehouses and railroad term- inals, handling more than 1000,/ tons of freight daily. Moving these goods on the surface would add to Loop congestion The trains run between 15 and 30 miles an hur through air con- ditioned concrete tunnels st 1 and one-half feet high and six feet wide. Eleetric pumps, water and fire-proof doors, electrically control- led signal block systems are part of the operating equipment. .- Derby May Crown Queen for Great “Sport of Kings” Entries in Race By ALEX McNEILL LOUISVILLE, April 29.—Will a woman be crowned queen of the |“sport of kings” at Churchill Downs when the winner of the Kentucky Derby is acclaimed? Only five times in the 63 years of this classic of the American turf has a women-owned herse flashed under the wire the winner. Yet to- day horses owned by 16 women are cligible for the blue robbon event, May 7. Mrs. Ethel V. Mars of Chicago, owner of the Milky Way farms, at present seems to have the best chance of capturing the mile-and-a- quarter $50,000-added race with Mountain Ridge and Tiger. Both had outstanding records as two- year-olds Mrs. Stoan Ojffers Trafnic Light Mrs. Isabel Dodge Sloan, whose Cavalcade won the Derby in 1934, is back again this year with Traffic Light, a chesnut colt by Clock Tow- er out of Footprint. Another former winner, Mrs. | Payne Whitney, hopes to repeat with Gangplank, Perfect Peace or Red- | breast. Her Twenty Grand set the Derby speed record of 2:01 4-5 in 1931. The first woman to win was Mrs. Mrs. Robert M. Hoots, won with| Black Gold. Mrs. John D.

Her reappointment was of customers, and made so much made by the Board at their last neise that the cops arrived in time meeting. Three vacancies for next term are evidenced now so far for a shooting bee before they could escape. All three of the thugs and one policeman shot.

They are well locked up.” Miss Oberon has about a week more in New York and then she goes west to make “Graustark” with Gary Cooper. The lanky Montanan's popularity with women is as high abroad as it is here. Miss Oberon said all the women oh'd and ah'd when they learned she was to co- star with Gary Cooper. “You must| give Gary a big kiss for me” shel was instructed by all her women friends in London. Later I barged into La Conga and sat at a table under a spread- ing bamboo tree with two North Carolinans, Sidney Spier of Rocky Mount, and Bob Reud of Hickory, and listened to Eric Madriguera weave a veil of enchantment over a midnight crowd.
