The great powers of Europe are
reaping the whirlwind, due to the part
they took in the war between Turkey
and Greece. That war arose on ac-
count of disturbances in the island OF
Crete. provoked by the Turks. The
island has been under Turkish control
since and now the Turks are amusing
themselves by making bonfres and
throwing English and other consuls on
them. Naturally. the powers object to
this kind of illumination and have or
dered the sultan's troops to get out of
the island. That potentate declines
and Europe may have to do itself what
it declined to allow Greece to do.

yesterday and were defeated in two
games. Duggleby was on the slab for
the home team in the first game and
the Grays pounded him in fine style in

pace by cracking out a home run drive
the first time up and this was followed
with clean hitting that made bunch

Duggleby was encouraged by hustling
support in the field. He kept at his
task and after that damaging first in

run ahead in the fourth inning. They
clinched il by punching hits with mis-
plays and made the score 3 to in the
sixth inning.
In the second game the conditions
were reversed and IL was the home team
that secured the good start and made
IL an uphill tight for the Clam Dig
