enforced since infringement of these

most shore birds and many Of the in

complete protection. 1t is proposed
practically to abolish spring shooting
season. the open season averaging two
months in the late fall.
The regulations will also prescribe
what varieties Of birds will come with

waterfowl. such as rant, wild duck,

EPISCOPAL CONTROVERSY
IS NEARING A CRISIS

DETROIT. Aug IA bitter fight
between the ''lOw churchmen" and the
high churchmen" of the Protestant
Episcopal church in the United States
will come to a crisis soon at the gem
eral convention of the religious lead
ers in New York City
The proposition advanced by tha
high churchmen is that the historic
Anglican communion both IN Englan
and America is not protestant church
hut a Catholic church and the name
should be changed to the American
Catholic church to make it conform
to the nature of the denomination. This
controversy within the American An
Rlican communion is attracting atten
ton not only Of the Episcopalians, but
tie leaders Of other denominations as
we'll. because all church leaders re
sard it as an outward manifestation
Of the crisis that now confronts his
toric Professionalism in America and
throughout the world.
The high churchmen" who favor
the Catholic appellation are, being op-
posed by the Right Rev Charles David
Williams, bishop Of the Protestant
Episcopal diocese of Michigan.
I'm all the denominations, even in
the American offspring of the old
Puritan church, the COngreS Sational de
nomination, ritualsm is crowding out
the former simple Protestant form Of
worship" said a well known Detroit
divine. 1.-The fact that the opposing
forces at work in all the churches
are to clash in open debate in the an
preaching general convention Of the
Episcopal church. where the whole
matter will be passed in review and
finally threshed out by some Of the
ablest doctors of theology on the con-
tlnent will attract the attention of he
protestants Of The world"
Bishop Williams, through his al
dress at the last Michigan diocesan
convention, in which he came out flat
footed against the proposed change in
name, declared that the change would
erect barrier against the rising tide
for Protestant unity and the breaking
down Of sectarian divisions. and made
himself practically the leader and
spokesman for the Glow" churchmen.

Oaks were never able to overcome.
This lead proved a big one. as Lefty

through an error by Corhan and some
nifty hitting by the oaks they made
four runs. Lefty was under wraps after

Corhan followed with a healthy
