The Detroit Tigers failed TO pass
the Griffs in the red.hot scrap for
third place honors. This has great

they know that Ty Cobb has his

days and even then was unable to
drag the Griffmen back.
The Griffmen are in third place.

Passing the Browns yet. Some other
team will have to come to their
assistance IL that is to be done.
Three victories here. with a clean
sweep in Chicago, might send the
Griff's home in second place, pro-
viding the Browns go to pieces

Special praise is due the two kids,

Continued from PAGE One

Italy might the sooner be restored TO n
better economic basis. and a more now .
erful place in international affairs.
For the moment ut least. communism
has no part in the life of Italy. The
onslaught Of the Fascist has rendered
all radicalism paralyzing blow.
Carrying their battle into the labor
temples and the meeting places of their
antagonists. the militant nationalists
have seized the records and rosters and
burned them.
Vittorio ltolandi Ricci, Italian Am.
bassadOr at Washington. has presented
his resignation like his colleagues,
Count Sforza, Ambassador at Paris.
and Senator Frassati. Ambassador at
Berlin. wishing to leave Premier Mus
sOlini free to choose his own trusted
men for such important posts.
Minister of Industry RoSsi. in agree
mrnt with the Minister of the Treasury,
has taken steps for the immediate re.
opening of the Bourse.
Washington. Nov. Try A. PD-
Because his political affiliations are at
variance with those of the new Italian
premier, it is the belief in diplomatic
circles here that the resignation of
Senator Ricci MS Italian Ambassador
to the United States probably will be-
accepted and that another will be sent
to Washington to replace him. He was
rated as Liberal Democrat. and al.
though he never inclined to the ex.
treme Socialistic views, 1t Is known
that his political vcws do not accord
with the Conservatives. who compose
the Fascist party.
Senator Frassati. who has resigned
as Italian Ambassador to Germany.
also is expected here to definitely part
company with the new regime at Rome.
Senator Ricci, accredited us Am.
bassadOr here on February %. 1921,
did not occupy his post in Washington
for many weeks ut time, and he
now has been absent for some time on
Il visit to Italy.
In the course of his speeches in the
country the Ambassador talked very
frankly Of ltaly's financial condition
and of his belief that obstacles to the
repayment of ltaly's debt to the Unit.
ed States would be interposed by the
new tariff law and by unduly restric-
tive immigration laws. As a result he
received an admonltion from Secretary
Hughes.
