Paris.-One by one the French Su,

breeders are given jobs on communist
newspapers. When their days work is
finished they lecture In the cheap halls

Naturally police spies are always
present at such meetings, and when
evidence Is obtained that win warrant
arrest on a charge of plotting against
the welfare Of the state the heavy
hand Of the law falls upon Moscow's
ENJOYS. The latest Of these to be
caught in the police net is Johann
Frenckol, we'll known IN Central Eu-
rope as dangerous agitator. Frenck-
els guilt as plotter was not proved,
as he was given a substantial coat of
whitewash by his red brethren, but he
failed to explain how he had entered
France without passport. Therefore
he was escorted to the Spanish from.
tier by four husky detectives and told
that his presence in France was not
desirable. Frenckel alternately wept
and cursed the French bourgeoise, Of
which he said Lenine would some day
be the master. Although Bohemian
by birth, Frenckel refused ticket
taking him there, as his many encoun
tiers with the police still leave him
with several charges to face. The
Spanish communist colony is thriving.
however, more than 40 agitators ex
pulsed from France having selected
Spain as the scene for new efforts.

LINTON IN LEAD

BY losing to Braddock Sunday,
Strasburg loses first place in the
league and Linton now leads of. Lin
ton has played five games and lost
one. Braddock and Strasburg tied for
second and third. Napoleon comes
next, and Hazelton brings up in the
rear.
Braddock went to Strasburg Sum-
day, and copped off the long end of an
11-to-5 score. Two home runs by
Braddock and other heavy hitting,
and poor fielding by Strasburg tells
the story Of the game. Foryziak
was unable to hold the bunch down.
Strasburg had been going good dur
ing the spring, but luck is breaking
against her now. She has lost the
last two league game played, with
Napoleon and with Braddock.
Next Sunday Napoleon comes to
Linton for a game, and Hazelton goes
to Braddock. The. sta&ding of the
clubs is as follows:

he got ., finger knocked out in the
ninth, with one down and two strikes
on the second batter. Hank Tiffin
catcher, for Hazelton, then finished out
the inning. It was after the long ar.
gument in the seventh that Linton
cinched the game. In the eighth
everybody started hitting. Bechtol
was pitching for Hazelton, and Mana.
ger Semling ordered him pulled, and
Bert Thompson went in. Bert was
hit just as hard as Semling.
While the game was marred by ar.
guments, there was little ill-feeling
shown. Players on both teams enter
tanned the crowd with clown stuff
while the argument ragged. And
Hank Tiffin took the sting out of
things when he caught for both teams
in the last inning.
1t looks as though some effort
should be made to reach an agree
:nent before games that no one should
even discuss a play with an umpire
after the game begins, except to re-
quest the change of umpires if either
side becomes dissatisfied.
