J2 THE HORSE BEATSAUTD AND AIDS ARREST Frankie Frisch, Winner Blue Ribbon, Lives Up to Repu- tation in Long Dash. Washington's own Frankle Frisch, blue ribbon mount of Policeman Hugh Cornwell of the Tenleytown substation, lived up to his name and his record yvesterday afternoon when he pitted his big h and slender limbs against a thundering automo- bile truck and came out the winner of a chase up Wisconsin avenue. The chase ended with the arrest of Louis Rounds, colored, of 4821 Forty- first street, driver of the truck, on charges of operating while drunk; two cases of colliding, failing to obey a traffic signal and failure to exhibit a permit, on which collateral of $660 was fixed. Horse Dares Truek. The truck with a cargo of bricks collided with an automobile operated by Charles H. Gallihes of 1321 Far- Tagut street, near chusetts ave- nue on Wisconsin avenue. The truck driver, according to the police, back- ed away from the avtomoblle after the accident and swung around to the north, speeding away. Policeman Cornwell noticed the truck at the junc- ture of Woodl avenue, and dug side of Frankie road and Wisconsin his heels Into the isch. The horse did not hesitate. He stepped out and tried to block the truck. The truck headed 80 directly for him that he had to swing back on his haunches to avoid it. Then the race between police horse and automobile started. Out Wisconsin avenue they swept, weaving in and out of traffic, narrow- 1y missing pedestrians and motorists. At Norton place the car sideswiped an automobile driven by Miss Mar- garet Korn of Rockville, Md. Weapon Brings Results. The horse drew up alongside the truck. Cornwell whipped out his re- volver and aimed at the driver's head. @he latter submitted to arrest. Later in No. 7 police station the prisoner, sald to be almost blind from liquor, attempted to kill himself, ac- cording to police, and necessitated the posting of a speclal guard. Frankle Frisch munched contented- ly at his oats upon arrival in his stable late last night. And as he munch- ed, he must have mused contentedly upon the good judgment of those su- pervising the competition for saddle horses at the National Capital Horse Show last May, when a blue ribbon was pinned on his bridle.
