B4 FORMER CAPITAL WONAN 1S DEAD Mrs. Lena N. S. Anderson of Lyon Village to Be Buried Tomorrow. By a Staft Correspondent of The Star. LYON VILLAGE, Va., April 5— Services for Mrs. Lena Nelson Stuart Anderson, descendant of Thomas Nel- son, a signer of the Declaration of Independence and the first Governor of Virginia, who died yesterday in Emergency Hospital, Washington, after an illness of several months, will be held tomorrow afternoon at 2 o'clock in St. Paul's Methodist Episcopal Church South, Washington. She was the wife of Thomas G. Anderson and had resided at 308 Key boulevard since 1930, following a resi- dence of 25 years in Washington. Mrs. Anderson was born in Warren- ton, the daughter of the late Capt. Joseph H. Nelson. Be: ; her husband, Mrs. Anderson is suri.ved by two daughters, Mrs. Samuel Poe Garden of Lyon Village and Mrs. Robert Wendell Eaves of Alexandria; two sons, Robert Nelson Anderson of Arlington County and J. Nelson Anderson of Washington; three sisters, Mrs. Clarice H. Rector of Florida, Miss N. Lucille Nelson and Miss Mary B. Nelson of Washington, and a brother, Edgar F. Nelson, of Washington. GETS WRONG 0DDS PHILADELPHIA (#)—The man on the telephone asked for odds, but the odds are all against him getting any- thing out of his bet. Police Capt. Daniel Harrity took the callers’ bet, tricked him Iato dis- closing the telephone number of the bookmaker, then raided the cigar store where that number was listed. THE EVENING With his “setting hens” out of the way, Vice President Garner now has a little more time to think about the approach of the base ball season, The “setting hens” were the con- ferees who finally hatched out the $4,880,000,000 work-relief bill under Garner’s prodding. Now he can con- centrate—for a little while, anyhow— on viewing the base ball situation with alarm. The base ball outlook has him bothered because he’s a hot sup- porter of the Washington club and he fears Clark Griffith bought a pig in a poke last Winter when he got Bump Hadley from the Browns. Garner fears Hadley's pitching arm isn’t go- ing to be any good any more. The Vice President has a unique method of salving his conscience for leaving the presiding chair in the Senate to go see the Nationals play when they're in town. “In the first place,” he explains, “I kind ‘of earn the pass Clark Griffith sends me every year by going out there and parading with the boys when they want to raise flags and things and rooting hard for them the rest of the time. Takes Care of Opposition. “Then I always take two Republic- ans and one Democrat along with me, so that if any votes come up while I'm away, why we Democrats have got a little the best of it. If I think the Progressives, or the standpatters are going to be voting against us that day, why I take a couple of them along instead of the Republicans. ate unless there’s a tie, so they giv up two votes and we only lose one.” His two year-round recreations— poker and fishing—no longer provide him the sport they used to.. He can’t stand the long poker sessions any | more—and a bit of a kink in his right plugs with his old accuracy at the big and little mouth bass in the rivers and lakes down around his native Uvalde, Tex. “So I just row the boat now,” he 1 get to see a lot more scenery L.

That's one reason why I never did take much to salt-water fishing. Not enough scen- ery around.” Enjoyed “Of Thee I Sing.” He's so amiable that after you've talked with him a while you can't help asking what he thought about that hilarious travesty on Washington polities, the Pulitzer prize musical comedy, “Of Thee I Sing,” in which Victor Moore played the part of a vice president who was so out of things that he had to join a sight- seeing party to get into his own offices. It might be a touchy subject, but it isn’t at all. “I saw it as many times as I could,” he chuckles. “I got to be real good friends with Moore. We swapped pic- tures and autographs, and I got a letter from him just the other day saying that he heard I was coming up to New York soon and inviting me to see his latest show. He's my favorite actor.” Finnish Crops Large. Record ylelds of wheat, oats and barley were registered in Finland last year. Norway Is Hopeful.
