pected to overshadow all political
controversaries and place the World
Court, prohibition and Muscles Shoals
issues in the shade May /, when the
Republican and Democratic members
OF Congress will play their first base
ball game since 1918.
Evidently tired Of the continued
discussion Of why the other side is
wrong, the wives of the members of
Congress who are members of the
Woman's Congressional Club have so
maneuvered things as to get their
husbands to do battle where they can
stand on the sidelines and root.
This game will be played in the
American League Park under the
auspices Of the Woman's Congress
sional Club. The first Of these games
was played in 1909 The game was
played almost annually until 1918,
when 1t was dropped.
This was the lineup for the Re
publicans II years ago: Representa-
tives Thomas of Ohio, Anthony of
Kansas. Cole of Ohio; Butler of Penn

Tener Of Pennsylvania, Bennett of
New York; former Secretary of the

his naval duties. Mr.. Hanson was
not entirely satisfied with the state of
our radio equipment at the time Of
our departure and obtained an extern

He will be transferred at sea If
