$500 People See
Angels Trimmed
by Eastern Cubs

LOS ANGELES, Mar 17,7 The
1900 people who Went out TO Wash
ington Park yesterday with the
hope of seeing the Angels make it
three wins in row from the Chi
cago Cubs, in the training camp
series, were disappointed to have the
Seraphs come out on the small end
of a 10 to 3 score.
A number of things contributed
to the downfall of the Angels. Two
of them were the stellar box work
Hof Guy Bush, the Cubs lanky
pitcher, and the heavy stick work
of Hack Miller who poled but a
homer and a triple at a time they
did the Cubs lot of goofi! =,
A third factor in the Angels dc.
feat was the fact that tho Cubs
touched up Root, Scraph pitcher, for
five runs on two hits i'll the first
inning and one run in the fifth. In
the eighth inning, with George
Payne, once Of the Chicago White
Sox, hurting for tho Angels, the
Cubs staged a hit@and run splurge
and made four runs. 's%
The Cubs got ten hits, only one
more than the Angels, but they came
at better times and brought in runs

WlLLS-LENGLEN
MATCH TODECIDE
WORLDS WINNER
No Other Sporting Event
Holds Greater
Interest
BY HENRY l.. FARRELL
limited Press Sports Editor)

NEW YORK, Mar. II. An
nouncement by the United States
Lawn Tennis Association that Miss
Helen Wills, California college girl
and national tennis Champion. will
be member Of the team that the
association is sending to Wimble-
don and Paris, puts in prospect what
might be the greatest of the year
Ia match between the California
girl star and Mile. Suzanne Leng-
len for the world s championship.
No other sporting event Of the
season has in it the possibilities for
public appeal and international in
terest than match between the
great French champion and the Cal
ifornia miss who seems destined for
heights not even attained by Mile.
Suzanne. a,ts5,.>. - y
If the pair should meet at Wimble-
don, the match would be of tremen-
dous Importance, as it would involve
the worlds championship, unoffi-
cially at least, because it is the
British championship held by the
French girl against American COM
petition at Winbledon4> that has
earned for her the right to be call
ed the champion Of the world.
1t would not be gracious for Mile.
Lenglen to be so unfortunate as to
find some reason for not defending
her title this particular year, when
she has been so eager to do 1T IN
the past. =,
Perhaps she might consider it her
greatest duty to sacrifice her per-
sonaisglory fors the interests of her
country by remaining out OF the
competition at sNimbJetief and con-
serving her kgame. for the Olympic
tennis matches. in Paris.
However, Wills-Lenglcn match
would be just the same at Paris 'as
it would be mt Wimbledon, and per-
haps it would he. exen bigger as an
attraction, because the Olympic
games will have whooped up inter,
est in all amateur sports by that
time.
Miss Willis s'not going to Europe
"after" Mile. Lenglen. 1t is quite
possible that the modest California
girl has not given it a great, deal
of thought, as she is not one Ito
worry herself. She was invited to
Join the American team of women
that is to defend the Wightman
Cup against the, British woman s
team and that lis Ito play in the
British championships and then IL
the Olypmic championships.

American people are noted through,

 sponse to cries for help from those
 who have suffered misfortune and the
 people Of New Britain being no less a
 part Of that American body, stand
 ever ready to aid where aid is need
 ed. But-yesterday 1t is apparent that
 several of the good people of this
 city were hoaxed into giving money
 to humbug who paraded up and
 down Main street dressed in the uni
 form of veteran of the world war,
 with his shrunken chest decorated
 with a row Of medals including the distinguished service cross and the Croix de Guerfe of the French re- public. selling shoe strings, announce ing his wares in plaintive cry of "Please help a disabled ex-service man."
 He was dressed in a wrinkled uni- form such as was worn in the world war, wore cap on his head that must have been pilfered from some British Tommy, had gas mask knapsack hanging from his shoulders on one side and another sack with a display of shoestrings on the other His frame was slight and his appearance would give an innocent the impression that he had only a week to live. Even the hair at both of his temples peek ing out from beneath his cap showed streaks of white.
 While he was acting his part on Main street, his limousine was parked on Summer street waiting its owners pleasure. The car bore Massachusetts, markers and stood with drawn shades. About 2:S0 o'clock in the afternoon, the alms-seeker came up Center street, turned into East Main. crossed over and approached the parked auto mobile. With a quick look around, he jumped into the car. Within 10 he was dressed for the street, he emerged from the tonneau, dressed in natty suit of the latest model, brightly shining straw hat on his head and a cigar in his mouth and with. a wiiir of a perfectly timed engine, he started out in the direction of Hart ford.
 At one time yesterday he gained &C., cess to the office of large manu- | 'acturing concern, but this time he ap- ,eared with an empty left sleeve. and | t is said that the business he did | here was large because so many re- used to take the shoe strings in re- urn for their money.

Bristol, July 24.--Emi Bachand, driver of a taxi cab, who has been missing since July IS, with an auto mobile owned by George Moquin, haggagemaster at the New Haven" road station, returned to town today end gave himself up to the police. He will be given hearing in police court tomorrow morning.
 Bashand explains that he borrowed Moquin's machine to go to Hartford. Arriving there, he decided he would ride around the country because he thought Moquin would not object to him keeping the auto for a few days. He went to New Haven and then to New York state. When he reached Elizabeth Pond, N. r., last Friday, the magneto of the automobile re- fused to function and he was forced to conclude his trip then and there. He has put the car in a garage. He is willing to pay Moquins expenses to Elizabeth Pond, and it is said that no serious charge will be preferred against him.

 sentative Nelson of Wisconsin was
 made chairman of the committee, and
 will return from Chicago tonight or
 tomorrow for the meeting.
 Others on Committee. The committee membership also includes Mrs. Edward P. Costig.

 dent of the International Association
 of Machinists; Basil M. Manly, direct-
 or of the Peoples Legislative Service:
 Mrs. Elizabeth Glendower Evans,
 Boston; D. B. Robertson, president
 Bremen and Enginemen, and Robert M. La Toilette, Jr.
 As the committee has the task of | financing and organizing the cam paign, very wide powers. somewhat unusual in the routine of national party constitutions, have been ex- tended to 1t. A statement from Sen- ator La Follette's office said the com- nittee was empowered to proceed in any state to remove the head of the existing La Toilette organization, and oubstitulo II It SO QeSlre0.
 The strictness of the control att tempted is desired, La Toilette ad- herents say, partly in order to pre- vent the senator's national campaign from endangering the election of sit- ting members of congress now aligned with the republican and democratic parties, but whose conduct in office is approved. There is the additional reason that in several states there is conflict as to who shall name and place the La Toilette ticket of elect ors on the ballot.
 The powers and duties of the new executive body, statement said, in- cluded:
 The national campaign shall be by a joint executive commit tee to be composed of eleven members representing the conference for pro. gressive political action and the La Toilette for president committee.
 The chairman of the committes shall manage the general campaign under the direction of the joint ex- ecutive committee.
 "The joint executive committes shall be authorized to establish such regional headquarters and branch offices as may be necessary.
 'No nominations or inducements of congressional. state or local candi- 1ates by state or local conferences or shall be official and bind- ng unless submitted to and approved oy the joint executive committee.
 The joint executive committee is hereby empowered, after conference with the state executive committee, o remove any state chairman for sufficient cause, and after conferencs with the state executive committee to Lppoint another chairman with full authority to act.
 "The joint executive committee hall appoint national committees on rganization. filing of nominations, publicity. campaign literature, speak, rs and such other committees as it nay deem necessary"
