LEICESTER, Eng, Apr. S.-Do spe' cial circumstances ever warrant talk ing human life? This question is again revived with another case of this type, reported from the Hunger ton vicarage, where Rev.

 A warning that relief work had re- lapsed in some communities and that the second crisis existed, was sounded by Dr. w. T. MacVey, in an address before the Carbondale, H., Rotary Club. The first crisis passed, he said, persons outside the devastated area failed to realize the tremendous work necessary.
 Although relief work is we'll organ ized in Murphysboro, he said, ,condi- tiOns are serious elsewhere in the dis trict Dr. MacVey said that the Car bondale relief organization was living from hand to mouth" with the prob lem of feeding 4,000 homeless for weeks and providing shelter for hund- reds for months.

 Monsieur VallOt-Duval was for many years resident of America and made three trips to Alaska. The information he accumulated on what he calls The Continent of the Flu ture," is both current and correct His range of subject material is am pie, dwelling on forest and game re- sources.

 -CRISIS NOT PASSED

WEST FRANKFORT, H., Apr. D. (AP).-The work of the American Red Cross in rehabilitation in the entire tornado disaster area in five states will begin at once, according to Hen ry M Baker, national director of dis aster relief, here. It will include re- ing and all necessities of victims, but will not attempt to replace deficits in investment losses, which he called bus mess rehabilitation.
 The need of the victim and not his loss will guide attempts to re-estab- fish him on as nearly a pre-disaster basis as funds will permit, said Ba- ker. A careful survey will be made by trained workers to ascertain the needs of the storm sufferers and the Red Cross then will attempt to make up the deficit so far as funds are available.
 Vocational training and trust fund assistance in cases where a mother or children were left without support are provided for in the rehabilitation plan.
 The emergency period probably will continue for ten days, Baker said. He declared that in all the Red Cross disaster work he had nev- CT witnessed such complete devasta-

John Lee Richmond Of Worcester
against the Cleveland club, June
IL. 1850. when not n Cleveland
player made n base hit and not a
Cleveland player reached first base.
It was the greatest achievement of
It's kind in major league history to
then. There had been two major
league games prior to that In which
there had not been a hit but none
which had the glamor around 1t of
Richmond's game.
Then, too. there was added to It
the fact that in an exhibition game
against Chicago in June, 1879, he
had been credited with a no-hit
game and in July of the same year
he had been given credit for n
no-hit game against Springfield.

pitched against Cleveland.
Richmond once said that he could
remember little of this famous
game of his because It passed along
so smoothly and with such lack of
effort on his part that he hardly
realized what he was doing. He
said that his jump ball worked per-
fectly and his half stride ball. By
that II Will be noted that they had a
jump ball even as far back as 1880.
although there are many who have
said the jump ball did not come

Is the coincidence hat he exactly
equalled the old mark. S42. which

Prior to 1916. when Hughes made
his record. there had been no pitch
er from the beginning of National
league history who had been able to
produce such a large percentage of
victories. Eight years later. a first
year pitcher. who had left the west
to the accompaniment of hints that
the east would do well to keep an
eye on him, was able to duplicate
his feat.
Yde's work throughout the sea-
son was most extraordinary. For
the greater part OF the year 1t look
ed as though he were going to fin
ish the season without a single de-
feat.
Should Yde succeed in 1925 as
well as he did in 1924. he would
create for himself a two-year rec.
ord without parallel in baseball and
possibly n that would survive for
all time. 1t is hard to imagine how

Elimination Of Floating
Bones May Give Him
Kayo Punch.

tCopyright, 1926, Casper Tribune)
NEW NsRN. ian. 21.-Can 1t be
possible that Mike McTigue has
something really wrong with his
hands, especially his right, and that,
after an operation has been per.
formed involving the removal of a
bone, he will do . Jekyll-Hyde stunt
and become a knorker-out?
1t looks that way. A really high
class surgeon has actually gone on
record to the effect that Mike has
been troubled by floating bones or
something like that in his maulies
and that when the flaws have been
repaired. he will be able to hit out
like a little man.
Every fight Mike has had in the
past year or so he has put up a
squawk about bad hands and the
funny part Of It seems to DO that
the hands were really on the blink.
Maybe when he has recovered from
tho effects OF the surgeons knife.
he will become q dangerous guy for
anyone to face,
As a matter OF fact. some time
back Mike was quite a knocker-aut.
He used TO stow away man after
man. Johnny Nesch's promising
career was cut short by Mike and
such fighters as Jack Stone. X. o.
Jaffe. Gene Brosseau and some 40
odd other young men, were sent to
sleep by him.
He won over Billy Beckett by a
Knockout in Jersey City two years
ago and after that he seemed to lose
punching power and become more
defensive in his methods of milling.
Mike says that when his hands
get back into shape he is going to
meet all ~contenders for his worlds
