robbery which should not he permitted
In any city in the United States" said
Dreyfuss last night. "By working in

sty of having stronger legislation.
at is true that the sale OF the
worlds series tickets will never give
entire satisfaction long az the de-
mand exceeds the supply 1t is impos-

baseball to protect It's patrons from
