nter-Church League
BUYS Equipment Here

A denial of the complaint made
20 the Chamber of Commerce that
church athletic organizations pur-
chase their equipment outside of the
city instead of buying from local
dealers, was made this morning by
Kermit e. Parker, secretary-treas-
urer of the Inter-Church league.
Mr.. Parker claims that practically
all purchases are made in New Brit
ain. His statement follows:
THE protest made to the Chamber
OF Commerce against church athletic
organizations is d1ubly untrue If
aimed at the Inter Church league. 1t
is claimed that mohey is being soi-
cited from local merchants and that
it is spent through mail order houses.
In the first place, the Inter Church
league has never asked for funds
outside of its own membership, be-
ing self-supporting in every way.
Furthermore, an overwhelming pro-
portion of equipment purchased by
the teams is bought from New Brit
ain merchants. This may not have
been so in former years, but since
the local sporting goods houses have
been meeting the prices of the mail
order houses they have been given
the preference. The church league
baseball equipment was purchased
from New Britain dealer, and only
one team in the basketball league
has purchased anything from an out
side firm"

had abandoned his plan to make
a nonstop flight across the South
Atlantic, and that he would revise
his schedule to include two island
stops on the flight from Africa to

yesterday and the day before ap-
parently convinced De Pinedo that
he could not take off with sutfi-
cient fuel to ensure success of the
nonstop venture.
The new itinerary announced by
the lier would cause him to re-
turn northward to Dakar, in French
Senegal, whence he would make a
short flight to Porto Praia, Cape
Verde islands, which lie west and
slightly north of Dakar. From Por-

OPPOSED TO DANCER
Mrs. Wright Willing to Divorce or
Take Back Hubby II He'll Give
Up Nine. MilanofY.

San Francisco, Feb. IS E)-The
Examiner today said Mrs. Miriam
Noel Wright, who came here several
months after having played an e1-
citing part as the injured wife of
triangle involving her husband
Frank Lloyd Wright, noted archi-
tect, and Nine. Olga Milanof, Mont
genegrin dancer, is ready to either
take back her husband or give him
a divorce providing he will not
marry the dancer.
Wright was arrested last summer
on a Mann act charge after his wife
had co-operated with federal officers
in searching his country estate,
Taliesen, at Spring Green, Wis. The
case is pending in federal court at
Minneapolis.
"If he will give up this woman,
then I will take him back" Mrs.
Wright is quoted as saying. II will
make any sacrifice to save him from
prison.
Il will divorce him if that will
save him but not so that he can
marry this Olga.
His attorneys proposed that I
grant him q divorce before the trial
so that he would turn around and
marry Olga. They know that once
Olga is his wife, her testimony can
not be used against him.
MY answer is that l will divorce
him if he gives up Olga, or take him
back and help him to rebuild his
wealth and reputation"
