Southwest Pacific. Aug. 19.— | Japanese have be^n,

bltKidihCrepulsed by a U. S. surface in their firstattempt to Tetoke Vella La- vella island in-the.,central Sol­omons, . occupied Pt^y lest Sunday by Americalf^^Jnva- slon torcea. A spokesman at quarters of Admiral^ William Halsey. Jr.’s. South Pacific com mand said that hundreds of barge borne Japanese troops were killed or faptured during a frustrated landing V attempt in the early mottling hours of Wednesday. The thrtist thus came a bare 48 hours aftei the first American amphibi­ous,units landed unopposed on this, northerly island of the New Geoigia group.

No Ground Action as Yet Of an estimated >1.500 to 2,000

troous in the enemy counter-inva­sion force, not more, than 300 suc­ceeded in reaching the island. And While there has been no ground actioi, as yet, the spokes­man said “unquestionably there are .small groups” of. the enemy ro^ttuing Vella Lavella.

The Sanding attempt' was re­pelled by a^ttght U. S. Task Foj-ce which intercepted, between 20, to 30 Japanese barges" packed with 75 or more men each and a screening force of four destroyer^

In the engagement that fol­lowed, Alii jd headquai'ters an­nounced that one Japanese de-

I stroyer probably was. sunk, an­other severely , damaged and ' a third was hit. American . war­ships ’routed the enemy destroyers which turned ior home bases and then willed out most of the. barges. A few barges e.scaped to make landings on the northeast coast. . The Allied communique announcing the victory also dis­closed that a small U. S. cargo Ship was sunk on the/ same day by enemy aircraft.

Hour of Reckoning Near On the left wing of the Allied

' offensive in the South Pacific, Japan’s hour of reckoning iii northeastern New Guinea was brought 'much nearer by airblows too staggering to pennlt early rsr covery. -

At Wbwak, a once Ipufent force of 225 planes was reduced td an impotent 10 in two spectacular raids by .lur'bombers and .ighters Tuesday and Wednesday. Japa’ -ese fliers and ground crewmen killed

Urges: "Open Door" PoHey It is improbable that the Unit­

ed Stales would alone accept Juris­diction or control over former epemy territory," Villard said. He advocated an “open door" trade policy to make raiy materials ac-

'cesaible to all. thereby destroying "one of the fundamental excuses 'for conquest by force.”

' Assistant chief of the State de­partment’s Division of Near East?- erii Affairs, Villard expressed what he termed ’’the standpoint of the American government.

"Notwithstanding the astonish ing and probably Axls-ipspire.d rumon which crop up from time to time, this govemment-rln keep­ing. with Its traditional policy throughout the wc»ld—has no de- sigrns on the Colonial possessions o f other nations snd no to'carve out for Its exclusive benefit ;any portion of Africa," he said.

ers Advised to Waste•ti.'No Time in Exchange.Hartford, Aug, 19-,- Holders of

the. hook-type "B” and "C” gaso­line ration coupons which become invalid August 31 were advised to­day by the State OPA "to waste no llnle" ta exchanging their old rations for new ones. In making the suggestion, the OPA pointed oiit that local War Price and Ra­tioning Boards which will handle, the/'exchange in Connecticut "are already overloaded with work and cabnot be expegted to meet a last minute rush.” V ; ■

A spokesman for the Ratiopihg Division added that “ by going to 'your local board fea.rly you will help them and save yourself, the Inconvenience of having to wait beyond the deadline for the new- type sheet of coupons.’) He also strcsscd'the fact that all “B" and "C” Coupons not bearing the new validating words, "Mileage Ra­tioning,” would be nonTnegoUable

in any gasoline station after Aug- 31.

■While some sheet-type stamps do bear these words, it was reveal­ed. there are others now in the hands of car owners which., don’t. "Sheets of coujwna without toe validating phrase miwt also be ' ex­changed for the latest, type.” the s(K>kcsman asserted! | ’’beca,use they, too,'will be useless after th® deadline.”

He madedt plain that holders of ”A” books are not affected by the change-over and."may continue to use their basic totion until it ex­pires November 22.” According to the schedule laid down tor dealers and distributors by the OPA, allf asoUne stations must surrender he old-type "B" and-’.'C” cou()on8

to their dlstributore for gasoline or to their local rationing boards for inventory certificates before September 7. After that, toe deal­er will hot be able to have the old stamps honored. By September 12, all distributors must deposit these coupons In thelri ratkm banking accounts.

Besides stopping the flow of old- ty p a“B” and "C” rations, the OPA order-also Invalidates 100-gallon bulk coupons at the same time and directs Surrender at dealer and dis­tributor levels on the same dates. The change-over is [expected . to "strike a powerful blow at "the Black Market ta gasoline,” the

OPA believes, "since It will halt the movement of thousands of stolen coupons now In the hands Of racketeers."

“Although women have respond­ed Ip -great numbers to ap(>ealB to take jobs in war Industries, seems appar.ent at this point that in addition to relying on addition al workers, a realistic approach must be the more economical and efficient use of workers already ta the market,” Mr. Fitzgerald

’ said “Their efficiency is reduced whenever there is unnecessary job shifting, whenever they ara ' not employed to their full productive capacity and whenever they are absent from work unn'cceSsarlly. The attainment of these three

|J Now,-where the suggesUOna of their fellow-countrymen have failed, events have succeeded.

_ . They will take up diplomacy and K politics and the post-war world

Whether they like It or no. They have to, if they arc going to have anything to follow the military victories they have planned so nucceaafuUy. ‘

And now, of course, their asso­ciation is entering its truly com­plicated and difficult stages.

In' the past, their task has been sometimes desperate, but always pMatlvCly almple in structure. ■When'they first met as partners in this 'war. Axis aggression was at full fide, and there was only one thing to do—bring that Axis l^gresslon to a halt. Oiir first Job was to hold.

As we began holding, the pos- sibUities open to the Allied lead­ership grew more positive. It waa then a matter of gauging the still

'mighty strength of toe Axis, and •M|eoUng pointa at which the g rowing strength of the Allied cause could afford to make. first sasaults upon the Axis position. When those first assaults—essen­tially coimter-attacks—succeeded, they could go on to the possibili­ty of positive offensive action.. The progressive military decl- Siona thus undertaken were of un­told importance to history. .They have proved to be .good decisions. The one vital ta.sk then .before the IRooaeyelt-C^urchHr leadei^p haw been done' Weil.

Nvw this relative simplicity of nsponsibUity is at an end. One can’t have military'offensives and

'military victoriea without having other responsibilifies multiply themselves, sometimes most unex­pectedly. The most Impbrtaiit xeauit of the Sici'lan'^ campaign was not anything military plana cbuld enviaage or predict. It was the fall of Mussolini. ■ That was more Important than a battle iwjn, yet it could not be anticipated as •a battle coui^ nor could military plana alone ever hope to reap propel advantage from it.

Our military partnership with ftuasia iis effective, .enough for all practical purposes. We knock at Italy while thei Russians knock, at Khmkbvi But the ;“hotnes«‘,’ of •uCn military situations tnevlU- biy deifiands that, toe void In pur diplomatic relationship with Rus- .ala be filled with something.

The Manchester System^he most enjoyable and profita­

ble fiscar routine we believe any community ever experienced seems to be still working for Manchester.

The routine begina, each Au­gust, with the discovery of. a neat surplus In the town treasury. It usually totals 'approximately tlOO.OOO, more or ius.

That is immediately reconiised as a nest egg toward th/ next years tax rate. But complica­tions always arise, too. It is dis­covered that town .expenses are mounting in a way that can't be avoided. 'Hiese threaten to eat up the neat 1 egg. 1,

But. says some’ one about this time—eittaei some town fa­ther or some Herald editorial— Uje good midget-makers must baVe appropriated more than they needed- laat time, else they wouldn't wind up their yeqr with this comfortable ^suiqilus. - Let’s tallbi our budget more''bccurately this y w . and raise so much more money than,we need.

That is then done. The new budget, with increased expend!-. ture.i. is adopted .To make sure that the town doesn’t have- too muco money stiL left oyer, the tax Is reduce. .Town Treasurer Georg* Waddell undertokes the years Usk pt seeing ’ that the tp^ i doesn’-t go into the red, and then another August suddenly apv peara., And; the new August reveals-r yes, you've ■ guessed it—another suiqiius of >100,000 more or less, this year some >4,o0o more, on final estimatea. That’s another neat egg,- There are heavier ex­penses ahead, which threaten* to eat op that n W egg. But the grano list, and a sharp pencil, may .help, and in good, time I.we will probably gravitate to the pleasant ooncluaion that Manches­ter CM, by figuring a little more spever«y, afford itself another tax rate reduction.

Some other communltiea fiatter themaelvea that they have a pay- as-you-go fiscal system, but'-Man- ebaatat has a pay-before-y^-go ayatem that la all its own. ( .

We wouldn’f dream of inter- rupttng the process. It is difficult to ask anything more handsome than that it should go on-^-Uiat

budget ■ abould be tailored

publicity, so we; won’t go Into de- 'tail,*but the price schedules seem de'SI^ned to keep the Cross. renii- ni.scenqes to a close- circle of friend.s'-and out of , the poaMble mlsunder^andings of the hoi- pollpi . N ; '

The Dehio'cratic hoLpolloi, which never liked Old .Man Cross an.vway, never knowing' whether he was qslee^ or mere­ly s Republican, la not *ufrent- ly In the finest flush of pobket- book health. Whatever Old Man Cross was, this I* a Republican State again, and the payrolls know Ik

.-\s for the Republicans, they could, and did, chortle to them­selves that the old man was really a Republican. But_ their Joy was more in thinking how the Democrats were lieing cheated, and' never, translated Itself Into any kind of positive loyalty to him.For a special price In additional

dollars and cents, It will be pos­sible to obtain the old man's auto­graph This will give many Con­necticut people who supported the old .man and extended him vari­ous kinds of help and who vvere never noticed by him a tardy op­portunity to obtain for their shelves, at a price, some tangible evidence of how much the old' man appreciated what they did for him. since a good many people did help the bid m'an, and he al­ways regarded It, from bis lofty somnolence, as their happy privi­lege there should b«f a heavy sale of autographs to' those who want something to show on the other side of -the record.

It may be, « f course, that the book itself will reveal that the oid man knew and was grateful all the time, and is taking this decorous and pleasing Way of paying off all bis old debts. But that Is merely a pleasant possi­bility, and not in the old man’s previously demonstrated char­acter. The book, Ilke his prevl- ous behavior, Is likely to reveal'

'.that he thought highly and . royally of Cross.

Evefi In this, however, he was always delightful, ahd his book is certain to be delightful too, whejefore; we . recommend that disti^t clubs throughout the state hold one last Cross rally or card party for tfib purpose of raising the price of at least one copy for each club. Connecticut should be able to afford tbt* last act of obeisan i* tb a grand old man. It may, as, In the past, find the re­sult-tsmtallsing, but enjoyable.

Urge Cann^rs Put Up TomatoesHousewives of ■ this area were

urged today .to Intensify home caii- nlnF'Of tomatoes in the next few weeks to take advantage of abund­ant supplies and.to help prevent spoilage of this highly-perishable commodity. "The hai^esting of good quality tomatliies Is reaching its peak in this area,” said El. M. Muldoon, A A P Food" 'Stores’ director of sales for this area. "Un­less housewives cooperate by using more tomatoes than they ordinar­ily would, large quantities of this hutntious vegetables' will go to waste.” .

‘'By canning and juicing toma­toes at-periods of peak productlorfi. housewives can assure their fami­lies of adequate supplies o f food for next winter. This vegetable is one of toe most veraatile we have. Among other uses, tomatoes 'can be used to extend meat. And by intensifying their* home canning, wromen will release comparable^ amounts .of -commercially prpe^- sed foods for shipment' overseas.” Muldpon said 38 pounds of fresh to­matoes ar^ needed tor eight quarts when canned while it takes 24 pounds to make 13 pints of toma­to juice. Free leaflets are avail­able in the company’s stores to give housewives . full information on how to. can, preserve and pickle principal fruits and vegetables.

a 'chatter about an invasion fleet msMing in the Mediterranean.

A Berlin broadcast recorded by The Associated Press asserted 22 Allied ships With a total tonnage of 138,000 weie damaged Tuesday night by German planes in a raid on the 'Tunisiah port of Bizerte af­ter a major concentration had been observed there. (There was no Allied confirmation of such a raid.)

The Madrid radio, in a broadcast last night heard by the Associated Press, quoted “ Informed circles"' as Irving General Eisenhower had messaged President Roosevelt and Prime Minister "'Churchill that Alfled Armies]] were ready tor im­mediate invasion. TTie same circles were said to believe the time was only-a few hours off.

"This. broadcast may have been a version of General Elsenhower’s statement-of yesterday In wlfich he said both the American Seventh, and British Eighth "sreready to go at any rhlnute.”

(CBS recorded a London broad­cast which jtaig the United Nations radio had Instructed the people of Riggjo Calabria In southern Italy how to disrufit telephone communi­cations vital to German troops who escaped from Italy.)

Office of "Frli^KAiItoinlstration Looking ahead this week, the

Connecticut car owneKcan finally see a strong possibility -Ahat the ‘‘pleasure-driving’’ ban maySe lift­ed sometime early In September. The Indication has been contained

'f'the other enforcement agencies 1 the State would find It a v . ,. I to'Stamp out these Black Market I without the cooperation of th[ hundreds of thousands of hones I families who realize what ratiorll Ing means to them. /|

So here's what I told my friei)To win thla*.ijfar, if for no othe

m various statements from Wash- i > e ^ n „ we havk to keep the hoiIngton. In eo(^ stateme'nt, how­ever, there w'ere reservations which some of us may have over­looked.

These, reservations makerit plain that the "pleasure-driving ban can be terminated only if weN^e- frain from non-essential use of' ga.sollne for another few weeks. If w;e anticipate the possible removal of the unpleasant regulation by driving our cars unnecessarily now, chances arc that we may so de­plete available supplies that it will become imperative to keep the ban in force. .

Our best hope of an early end to the ban depends on us and on how we uSe our cars during the next few weeks. Why jcouldn’t we all maintain the- same conscientious attitude toward gasoline conserva­tion most of us have for the past three months? If we do, I think we can expect more freedom with our "A " rations in the very immediate itoture. Our resolve should be: “We will not drive even one mile during the next few weeks unless It is for a useful and necessary purpose." “

As most of you have’ read In the newspapers. “B” and "C" ration books will become invalid Aue. 31. In their place, you holders of sup- pUmental gasoline rations will re­ceive sheets Of coupons.

These sheets aren’t, exactly new In (Jonhecticut. They have been in circulation here for about a month, and hundreds of motorists whose supplemental rations expired with­in this time have received the. new type of coupons. These motorists naturally, will not have to worry about the Aug. 31 deadline because they already possess the new kind of ration.

Car owners who still have unex­pired “B” and "C " books, however, Anust turn them over to their Lo­cal Rationing Boards before the deadline, for after that, they will not be negotiable at any gasoline station.

There are two reasons whyj-our, government is revamping the “B” and "C" coupons. The main reason Is to strike a blow at Black Mark­eteers Into whose hands have fall­en thousands of old-style gasoline books. These • stolen books wiU automatically become useless after Aug. 31. The second rea.son for the change-over Is thrift. It ts much cheaper to issue rations in single unbound sheets than in a bound booklet.

Note to.holders of “C" books: Don’t forget the deadline for your next tire-inspection date. It ’s Aug. 30. I f your tires aren't Inspected by then, you will be confronted by difficulties when you go to your Local Board to exchange your old ration bdok for the new sheets of coupons. As a friendly suggestion. I recommend that you have your' tires Inspected before the last-mln-. ute rush. It will save you time.

A number of fuel oil users have" informed the State OPA that or­ders placed with, fuel oil dealers several weeks ago have not yet been flUed. •

The reason for uils delay is slm.- p le.'r. . BecauM o f ’the manpower shortegc and toe need for making avery gallon of gasou'ne do double­duty, moist fuel oil dealers are un­able to deliver 4mall orders tmmed- mtelv. Tt is ^ I r policy to wait un­til thqy 'have a sufficient number o f stnall orders from one locality to make it worthwhile to send put a truck. \

Therefore, if your-deiler keeps you waiting a week .or trim; be patient. The delay is moti'irated solely by Ws desire to conserve manpower, gasoline arid rubber. Furthermore, don’t let the pros­pect of a little delaj^ deter yoii from placing your fuel oil order now. By doing this, you ■will give your dealer ample time to organ­ise his deliveries before the winter weather arrives.

'.The other day in the course ISf a dinner conversation about ration foods, a friend of mine, by way of exemplifying that there is a Black Market in Connecticut, told me he knew somebody who could get '"all the meat and canned goods he wanted withoiit,. .] surrendering a alngle ratiem coi^'n.

I didn't say, “That’s impossible." I "know -that such criminal prac- Uces.^xist wherever there are seh fish, unscrupulous people. P-know that the OPA combined with all

front sound and strong. Tha means ..equal distribution of th suppltes'’4ivanable at hold-the-lir prices. The, only way to achiev fair distribution during wartimll is through rationing. The only’ waff to keep prices from getting out line is through price control..1 have talked to dozens of Intel!

ligent Connecticut citizens wha realizeThls. They know that Whci anyone pays hlgher-than-ceilinj prices for a rationed commodity ll order to get nmre than his ahara he is doihg his bit, to sabotage Uil health and securitjr\»f his neighl bors. The “ extras" h^can afford may be the necessities sbmebod^ else is unable to obtain.

Every honest retailer under 1 stands that he cannot survive irl competition with the Black M arl ket. Every hone.st citizen realize.| what hardships his family wouu| fftce if rationings and prica control weren’t here to insure him of hii| fair share of food at rsasonablil prices. I I

Fortunately, our honest retallen| and consumers moke up the vasil majority of our population. It wii| be this solid block of public opiniorl which will defeat the Black M ari keteers not only in Connecticut! but throughout the nation.

Here’s how they;il do It:refusing to pay ipor

than top legal prices.' accepting no rationed

goods Without surrendering ratio stamps.

Boston, AUg. 19—(/Pi— Praising the spirit with which American labor and management as a whole h tW been willing to settle d i f f ^ ences in wartime. Dr. John,-"^R. Steelman, director of thq./'Onited States Conclllattbh Service, U. S. Department of Labor, today re­ported settlement of 12,315 ' dis­putes involving 6,049,184 workers in the year, ending June 30th. This is nearly twice as many as in the previous year and three times as many as in the year before.

In ConnecticutConnecticut had a record of 156

disputes Involving 192,307 workers which were settled in the past year -through'" the Conciliation Service. Besides this record, the servlcr-i of conciliators were sought In 44 other situations in Connecticut ' concerning 3-0*6 workers, but not in connection

"'-ijith the settling of sin actual la­bor dispute. The over-all pic­ture Hn New England shows that the Cbhciliatlon Service settled in ■the past year a total of 696 dis­putes Involving 578,854 workers and 'sentered other situations where no actual^dispute was in progress on - 407 dtcaaions con­cerning 49,689 workers.

Little Work Stop. „"Over 95 per cent of the^cMCS

brought to the attention of toe eer*’lce while in the threatenei strike or controversy stage were settled without any stoppage of work w’hatsoever,” Dr. • Steelman said. "The Increase In the ac­tivity of the Conciliation Service reflects a growing reasonableness and willingness to make use of ite facilities on the part of both man­agement and labor, and ;k>es not necessarily reflect *n ..increase in the 'number of disputes them- stives. Actually] the number of man-days lost due to strikes has decreased greatly since Pearl Her bor.”

The strongest testimony to the eptrit of reasonableness on both sides lies in the fact that although the War Labor Board had been set up as a forum of ultimate jurisdic­tion, ConcUlaUon Commissioners were able to settle these 12,315 dis­putes themselves and had to refer only 2,589 to the board. In these latter cases, almost without excep­tion, they were able to reduce ma-<, terially the number of Issues in­volved. In addition, 647 cases were referred to other State and Fed­eral age'ncles and 2,031 were pend­ing at the close of the year. Arbi­trations numbered ,1,009 against 453 the previous year and 192 the year before. Almost 2,000 other services, such as mvestlgatiqns and consent elections Were handled In too period.

ffi 29 Indnetrial Fields "The faciUtles of the service.”

Dr. SteelmSn said, "were used dur­ing the year in 29 major industrial, fields, suph as building trades, manufacture of food, war and steel, t e x t i l e s , transportation equipment, etc., and Were utilized by employers and employees In 48 sUtes, the District of (Jolumbla. Alaska, Puerto Rico, Hawaii, and toe Virgin Islands.

'The Conciliation Service comes into on Industrial dispute at the request of either party or of the public. Its job Is to bring, the or- aX

' gimlzed intelligence and proced­ures of conciliation to the points of difference in the shortest possible Uma It has no questionnaires to submit, no red tape to imtangla In difficult sltuatlonl where human relations have been strained and tense it seeks to bring the different parties together, without publicity, around the table In the spirit of

' give and take.. It ia successful to the extent tost labor and manage­ment can be brought to under­stand that the ties that bind are so much more Important than the dif­ferences that temporarily divide.

"ConclUatlOn Is'not always easy.It 'is extremely difficult at times, but the resulU are important, es­pecially in war time. Peace in in-

. dustry is more necessary now than at any other tlnle in our history. When>’Atoerican workers have a dispute] they can sit down and set­tle It by conciliation, while they continue to work with the energy and will of free men. It is because of this free will that we -have achieved our present, record of pro- ducUon.” \ ^

Criticism Aimed At Small Minority

Washington, Aug. 19.—Vlca President Wallace declared today that h li recent criticism of corporationa wri* aimed only at toe small minority. „

He cciupled a toleaalng for the profit system with • an assertion that free enterprise must be pre­served In the nation’s post-war econumic life.

Wallace called in newsmen to declare that a recent speech in Detroit, in which he accused some big corporations ■" of monopolistic p’ractices. had been “mlaimder- stood and misinterpreted’?, as a general attack on the corporate form of business organization.

Declaring such on implication definitely was not bis intent, be said:, .

“ 95 to 98 per cent of the cor- porationa are harmless or benefl- cient, and suffer juat os much from toe small minority oa any other group in the population."

The way tee rivals o l tee ’St.Louis Cardinals and New' - York Yankees are reacting to tee-un­impeded sweep of these two clubs to tee'major league pennants is a topic that may Interest the cla.*)s today. . I

Some stiu are trying to strengthen tnemselves for the presrnt season, some are trying to rebuild for next year and some simpiy are waiting for the sched­ule Lo end.

The Washington Senators ore the prize example of the first group. It would take a miracle to move the. Senators ahead of the Yankees, but Clark Griffith isn’t overlooking any chances,Yesterday he finally put through, a de.tl with the S t Louis Brooms for third baseman Harlond Clift and pitcher John Nlggellng.

The .Old Fox;.,;who was a slick trader before ' Branch Rickey’s name synonymous v with ^big deals, has been trying to g e t , c m for at least two!years to everybody’s knowledge and if he had oeen able-to land him to plug the Senators’ gap at third base a month ago, might have managed to make a race, Iti tee American League this veaTj |

New York, Aug. x9—Cardinals did not abandon music with the departure of Pepper Martin .and his Mudeat Band. Ap electric phonograph blares in thg St. Louis clubhouse before games and after •---when the Cards win. There is no jo*z, swing or jive wheh they lose.

The Red Birds don’t like.to lose, which is not the least'reason Why they win so frequently.

Old-timers in the ."'party—and with the blokes in tee red blazers you-have to go to_ the coaches, Mike Gonzalez and Buzzy Wares, to find ‘eril—call this the least Su­perstitious club with which they have, ever been associated.

A year ago Morton Cooper upped his number with every game won, but that was just a publicity'gag. , .

There will be nothing like tee btiya letting their whiskers sprout while 'winning. I f the Cardinals did that, they’d look like represen­tatives of the House of Danfld most of the time.

No one neglects to change his undershirt just because he is on a hitting . splurge. There is . no sticking ot gum on cap buttons, hitching of pants or stepping on foul line or' base to and from tee outfield.

That white Is unknown or mys­terious does not bother the young men of practical Billy Southworth, who pays no attention to so-called jinxes and operates on tee theory that breaks even up.

Manager Southworth was dis cussing Lou Klein and a pair of bad breaks that turned out to be a good one. ' x

New Haven, Aug. 19—Mb—If curfew had not rung last nighL the Winchester Repeating Armn Com­pany Rifles, coached by Albte Booth, apparently stood a good' clumce of beating the Yale base­ball team,, but as it was~tee Elis walked off with a 1 to 0 triumph in. six Innings.

The Rtflea, ehut out for six to- nlngs, got their eights on Bill “Looper” Cahill, Yale's number one pitcher, to the first half of the sev­enth and jumped Into « 8-1 lead. With former Ndw York Black Yan­kees pitcher R^y WUliama twirling masterfully for the Rifles, two Yale men were retired to the Ell half of the seventh when the clock reached 6iS0, the hour at which week-day games have to be halted becauM of other duties required,of the Navy and Marine corps cadbts on the Yale team.

Under the rules tbe score revert­ed to what it was at tee end of the last complete toning, to tela cs< e tbe slxte, at which tim^ Yale was ahead 1 to 6.

nppehdeetOffiy the day previous. When SlataMarlon was ready to return to tee wars," Second Base- man Jimmy Brown broke a flngfE* which gave Klein addltloiinl'em- ployment.

Except loz/a-spblT during which Martinjwas'nursing a jammed llt- Jlc-Ilnger or on days when Klein relieved the Octopus at short­stop, Brown never • got back on second. ' Brown was headed for the Army

an(^;Southwt>rth had no intention of making Klein, with whom he would bavc to flnteh the campaign, feel unlmportanL

The result was that. ; when Brown'joined the colors, the Card­inals had kn experienced hand'at second base.

Klein ia a freshman, but it is thfe showing of his sophomores that pleiiae Southworth most. Be­cause he broke his shoulder blade in' 194l, Billy the Kid considers Walker Cooper ‘ a soph. Stan Miiatal, Harry Walker, W'hltey Kiirowekl sc'l Sanders areOthers.

And the second year is sup­posed to be the hardest.

It was reliably reported that Krebs, star hurler for the Props, had quit the team. Just what broutet about this situation is-not known officially. It was underi stood, however, that Krebs wan.ted to pitch-last week and when Man­ager George Casey told him that (jongdon was golpg on the mound he went to the showers and. then turned to his uniform. ,

This, move .leaves Casey with Marco arid Crmgdon aa first string pitchers and it-really hurt the Props’ chances .for Krebs was ra­ted as One of the best huriera to the league I t was said Monday night that atepe w e » being taken to have Krebfi return to the team to Ume ter the playoffs

They burled afternoon., pat never knew hoW, she got

through the short servtee at the church and again at the. grave when the aolemn "Aahea to aahea and dust to dust" brought fresh tears to the eyes of almost every­one In the crowd. Of epurse, Dave Elson'a firm hand on her el­bow helped a lot. , V

Later, after they gone Dacifto the big house., tM t' had been Parker’a home since childhood, Pat decided that the scribbled note on an Immense basket of red'"roses was as much of a comfort to her as anything else. ," H e was s greit man—and a true friend to all who knew him."

Pat could hot help being a bit surprised at the donor, for Ran­dolph Atherton never agreed with Parker. Not on the plans for the new city piafk. Improving Main street, or anythtiu else. But hls message, so sincere and thought­ful, told her that tragedy had con­quered all other enemies and the floweis were Atherton's final trib­ute. . ' ■ ■' i

"That man never paid tribute i to anyohe'but himselr, PaL" Dave , remarked aarcaitlcally when she j told him about IL "He has one. ambition—money. How he gets It i doesn’t matter.”

The girl Uughed. "Mjh but you’re cynical," she told hwn, “Is that what New York does for you?”

"Maybe Life is what does IL Pat.'^People are fimny when you

His wife shook her head de- ^spalringly. "I’m beginning to doubt that,” she said.

Pat's fingers caressro the key- | board of the old typewriter on I the desk. Absently, she rolled a ' sheet of paper Into it and b^gan to type the sentence that la as old as high school typihg classes.

"Now' is the time for all good men—”

She stopped, stared at the line of typed letters. That *1"—this was the typewriter that turned out that threatening letter!
