JUGOSLAV EXPLORER
PIONEER IN MEXICO
Ancestor Of Present Immigrants
Prominent Before Revolution

Washington, Dec. 13.-A1though
Jugoslav migrants have only begun
to come to America In large mum bers
during recent years, the first Jugo-
slay to land upoa American soil cross
ed the ocean long before our Revo-
lutionary war. In fact, he was an Elk
p1orer, q Jesuit priest, Father Ferdi-
nand Konsag by name. Father Kon-
sag was born in Varazdin, in Croatia,
in 1903. In 1888 he came to North
America upon a. mission, sailing to
Vera Cruz. After a, number of years
work there, he was ordered to un-
dertake an expedition to the mouth
Of the Colorado river, to survey the
eastern coast Of the peninsula of low
or California.
The journey was full of hardships.
Accompanied by a certain Captain
Bernardo Lorenzo, Father Konsag
sailed as far as San Carlos, an inlet
northeast of San Ignozio on the cast
ern coast of Mexico. From here he
proceeded in four small boats, at
tended by a number of soldiers,
sailors and Yaqui Indians. In some
places the natives were hostile, be-
ing under the impression that the
navigators were the detested pearl
fishers. Finally the mouth Of the Rio
Crran0e was TeaCncQ. ana an 1LCenlpt
was made to enter the river. Almost
imm ediately the boat was upset in
the current and the occupants barely
escaped with their lives. Afterward
the dreaded "scurvy' attacked the
crew. Eventually the little party
reached the Gulf of California and
Father Koasag began his work. The
result of his labors was a map; the
first ever drawn of lower California.
Another JugoslaV missionary, 10
seph Kundek. came more than a CEN
tury later. His birthplace was IVAN
ich, Croatia. He worked vigorously
for his cause throughout the whole
lower Mississippi valley, from Indiana
to Louisiana. AS vicar general, he
had charge of all the territory from
the diocese of Vincennes, down to
New Orleans. During his time, regu-
lar collections were taken up in all
the churches of Croatia to support
these missions in America. The vi
emma records, through which the
money was sent, show that the
monthly collections som etimes
amounted to 5000, 900.

YANKEES HAVE MORE
CHANCE FOR PEkNANT
Since MAKING TRADE
While Red Socks Have Gain
ed Good Pitcher Needed
For Some Time.
By H. G. Hamilton

Omitted Press staff correspondent
New York, Dec. l9.--Perusal of the
trade in which Miller Higgins obtained
for the Yankees, Hub Leonard, Ernie
Shore and Duffy Lewis, in exchange
for AL Walters Ray Caldwell, Frank
Gilhooley and Slim Love, gives the
deal fifty-fifty sort of lock with the
advantage, if any exists, resting On
the side of Ed Barrow.
In Lewis, Higgins obtained strength
for his outfield, something he has nev.
er possessed. In AL Walters he gave to
Barrow one Of the American league IS
best catchers, something the Red Box
have needed since Bill Carriean became
banker.
The pitchers added TO tie Yankes
staff by the dicker will help, but the
additional slapman slipped TO Barrow
will also help the Sox TO fill depict
ed staff. Gilhooley's worth is praetie
ally discounted through the fact that
the Red Hox already have Hooper,
Strunk and Shorten to draw from.
The Red Sox were good enough last
summer TO win a pennant with only a
little help from Leonard, none from
Shore to speak of and little from Lew
is. Therefore, REIMBURSEMENT Of this
trio hurt only slightly. The Sox were
badly in need of catcher TO help Ag'
new. So this helps them.
Tho trade, however, results in this
fact
It places the Yankees within shoot.
ing distance of a pennant, for il gives
them strong outfield and a strong
pitching stsff. They have good in
field.
