HOUSE TO TAKE
LONG VACATION
SESSION SUSPENDED UNTIL
AUGUST Is WITH DEMO.
Gratis VIGOROUSLY OPPOS.
ING ACTION-GO HOME TO
ENTER CAMPAIGNS

Washington, July 1.-The house
of representatives adjourned to-
night at 9:49 o'clock until August
Is, thus giving members opportuni-
ty to return home to look after
their campaigns while the senate
still is at work on the tariff.
DEMOCRATS, opposing adjourn
ment almost solidly, forced a roll
call. The vote to quit was III to
43 with two voting present.
'The Democrats having voted
with their fingers crossed, 7 now
move that the house be adjourned"
said Representative MondeN, the
Republican leader.
There was a shout and a wild
race to taxicabs waiting outside to
rush members to outgoing trains.
In opposing adjournment, Demo
Gratis insisted 6he house ought to
stay in session and act on Henry
Ford's offer for lease Of Muscle
Shoals.
On objection by Representative
Montague (Democrat) of Virginia.
Mr.. Mondell failed to get through q
request that all members be given
five days in which to extend their
remarks in The Congressional Re-
cord on any subject relating to
legislation.
To enable the house to clean its
affairs, a technical session of the
senate was held at 8 o'clock for
signature Of last minute bills by
the senate's presiding officer.

Butler Opens Season
With Win Over Hanover

HANOVER, Ind, April 11-After be-
ing held at bay for five innings here
Monday, the Butler College baseball team
broke down the Hanover defense and
counted seven runs in the closing frames
for to 3 victory over the local ag-
gregation. Williams, pitching for Han
over, went the entire route and performed
in very creditable fashion. He was nicked
for nine safeties and famed nine Blue
and White batsmen. Slaughter and Sta
ton shared the hurting duties for Butler
and let the Hanover boys down with a
total of six hits
Hanover opened the scoring in the
fourth round when three hits and a
pass sent two markers over the plate.
Butler did not get to Williams until the
sixth frame, but made up for lost time
by scoring four times in this inning.
Hits by Hungate, Slaughter, Middles-
worth and r. Jones and passes to Scott
and Screes were responsible for the But
Ter runs. Hanover brought the score up
to to 3 by showing over a run in the
seventh inning, but Butler retaliated in
the eighth with two more and added an
otoher for good measure in the ninth.
The contest yesterday officially opened
the college baseball season in Indiana.

Baseball Guide Is Out

Spalding's official baseball guide for
1922, edited as usual by John B. Foster,
is contempOraneous with spring and the
advent of baseball for a new season. It
is replete with current history of the
national game and, as it does every year,
features the rules. The explanation Of
the rules, which have been made solely
for the guide by It's editor, are revised
and made clear.
The Spalding official guide of 1922 re-
views in detail the National League sea-
son of 1921, which resulted in such SEN
sational overtaking of Pittsburgh by
the New York club and the final sue
cess Of the latter. 1t also contains the
story of the American League race Of
1922 and from all of the minor leagues
There is complete story of the world
series of 1921, giving each game, play
by play. The rule manual is separate
and may be detached from the guide
proper without injury to either. That
is a Spalding Guide innovation. The rule
book can be carried In the pocket with
out any difficulty. The book can be
obtained at Spalding's sports goods
store.

he did not believe his way Of doing

B'NAI BIRTH BALL TO RESULT
. IN ADOPTION OF TEN ADDI-
TTONAL ORPHANS

500 young men and women gathered
last Saturday evening at the Armory
Hall, where the War Orphan Adop-
ton Ball given by the B'nai Birth
took place. In spite of the very large
attendance, the success of the affair
was not up to the expectation of the
committee in charge, as the hall could
easily have accommodated thousand
more people comfortably, and it was
hopeful that sufficient would be raised
to adopt rs orphans for St. Paul.
However, as result of the affair
and the publicity attached to it, at
least ten orphans in addition to the
four already adopted by Minnesota
Lodge, will be taken care of. 1t is
expected that the direct profit from
the sale Of tickets on the ball will be
at least 100000. The other $4,000
will be Forthcoming through the Of
fering of the Hebrew Ladies Aid So
ciety, through it's president, Mrs. J.
Ginsberg, and in the name of which
organization the orphans will be
adopted.
In addition to the dancing, the af-
fair was featured by the raffling of
the diamond ring for the War Re-
lief, and the musical number rendered
by Abba Abramowsky, vocal soloist,
and Melvin Silver, violinist, accom-
panied by Miss Esther Abramowsky.
The trio received much applause.
