Jockey's Whip Found To Have Electric 'Kick'
Among those coming to help with the program will be C. W. Classen, chief engineer of the Illinois State Board of Health, Springfield.
Adelaide, South Australia, Feb. 18—(UP) A jockey's whip, with an ingenuously-contrived electric battery concealed in the handle, has started an extensive inquiry by the stewards and police in Adelaide to investigate the stewards of any Australian racing club have called in the police.
The whip is alleged to have been found on the Angostura race course by a taxi-cab driver, and it is now known that he was killed after being "ten" to a bookmaker.
Anyone who used the whip would not need to hit the horse to put the electrical "kick" into operation. It would be necessary only to run the end of the whip up and down the horse's neck to provide the necessary contact between coil and batter and give the horse an electric shock which although slight, would stimulate it to greater effort.
An electrician said that the whip was the work of an expert. The battery had been so cleverly conjured by the technician that whip would pass official inspection,

Daily Walk at Seventy-six
Is Twenty-two Mile Affair
Cleveland, Ohio, Feb. 18, (UP)-4
W. Kraichat, 76, believes he leads
all his fellow citizens in this city
where it comes to long-distance
walking
He spent most of his life—until 1933—working as a blacksmith.
Kaighin takes his daily exercise by walking from the downtown river to suburban Rocky River and back again, or from public square to suburban Euclid and back. Each trip is about 22 miles.
"I run all the way to get my first job as an apprentice," he said. "I guess I've liked to walk and run ever since. No, I can't run those 22 miles every day. Walking is good enough exercise, anyway."
