.RHEM, FINED $4,000,
MAY QUIT THE CARDS
Rv the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
ST. LOUIS, July 2S.-Flint Rhem,
Cardinal pitcher, who announced he
would leave for his home in South
Carolina when a $4,000 fine was
slapped on him for breaking training
rules, has recpnsidered his decision
and Manager Bob O'Farrell today
assumed the role of mediator between
Rhem and President Sam Breadon.
Rhem agreed to postpone his de-
parture until O'Farrell had had a
chance to iron out differences between
the pitcher and the "office."
O'Farrell said he did not believe his
efforts would bring a reconciliation,
inasmuch as President Sam 'Breadon
has declared the fine would stick.
Breadons action was considered a
bombshell by sports writer's for reason
that Rhem has pitched good ball on
his last two outs. He lost both games.
but each was a close one, the Dodgers
defeating him in Brooklyn to l. and
the Reds in Cincinnati, to 3.
Breadon. however, took action
against Rhcm when the Cardinals
were in Philadelphia for the series
there in mid-July.
Breadon, it is said. learned that
Rhem had been drinking in Boston
and also had induced another player
to drink. He said he told the pitcher
while in Philadelphia that he was
going to deduct $4,000 from his pay.
Rhem received his check, less the
amount Of the fine yesterday,

placed his ear to the ground awaiting
the response Of boxing enthusiasts.
If the advocates are in the majority,
Kelly said, the stadium is Richard 8,
and that, in the opinion Of the Chicago
officials seeking to land the show, is
the chief determining factor in per-
suading the New York promoter to
bring the match here.
Richard announced he was bringing
an armload of blueprints of the Phila-
delphia Sesqui Stadium here to COM
pare seating facilities at Soldier Field
with those at the Dempsey-Tunney
match last Fall.
No boxing matches have ever been
held at Soldier Field, and the only
time the vast stadium floor has been
filled with seats was for last years
Eucharistic Congress when 100000
gathered in the huge horseshoe.
The first action to prevent the fight
was an application for an injunction,
filed in Circuit Court yesterday by
Attorney j. Kentner Elliott. His petit
ton was based largely on objection
to Dempsey's war record. He declined
to disclose the identity of the organiza.
ton he was representing in the action,
but said it was not the American
Legion. A hearing on the petition
probably will be held this week.

n VIEW YORK, July 28.-Bids have

JAPANESE BEETLE THREATENS
SOON TO INVADE WASHINGTON
Gardeners Are Warned That Most De-
structive Insect Known Is Likely to
Gain Foothold Here.

The Japanese beetle, one OF the most
destructive insect pests ever to get a
foothold in the United States, is again
on its way to Washington.
Officials of the Bureau of Entomol-
ogy of the Department of Agriculture
yesterday urged Capital residents to
keep a sharp lookout for this unwel-
come migrant in their gardens and on
their automobiles after returning from
trip North.
Last Summer a single specimen was
found in a Petworth garden and this
resulted I'm a crew Of entomologists,
assisted by Boy Scouts, combing the
woods and gardens in the vicinity.
They did not find any other speci-
mems. and consider the opportune dis
the city little short of miraculous.
None Answer Description.
This Summer telephone calls are
being received almost daily from the
city and the suburbs reporting the
discovery of insects which answer the
general description of the dreaded beetle,
Thus far examination has shown all
these finds to be Of comparatively in
nocent species, but the culprit may
show up at any time. One or two of
the beetles reaching Washington this
Summer and undetected. might do
damage running into thousands of dol
lars in another year, for they are pro-
life breeders.
The Japanese beetle, as described
by the Bureau Of Entomology, is from

one-third to one-half inch long.
broadly. oval in shape, the body green
with the backs OF the wings coppery
brown. Any one finding an insect
answering this general description Is
Entomology for identification, rather
than write or telephone a description.
1t is likely to be found on garden
flowers, fruit trees, grape vines. smart
weed, sassafras and horse chestnut
trees particularly, and is most likely
to appear along the streets leading
into the city from Maryland. It prob
ably would be carried on the hoods of
automobiles.
Beetle Area Spreads.
The beetle area now has spread west
OF Wilmington almost to the Mary
land line. 1t is likely to be found any
time between June Is and October IS,
with it's maximum period during July
and early August.
Once it gains a foothold in the parks
and gardens Of Washington, Bureau
OF Entomology officials say, expensive
measures would be necessary to keep
it in check. Otherwise it would be
likely to defoliate and eventually to
XIII some of the most valuable shade
trees, and prove a serious drawback
Tor home gardens. 1t also would be
likely to cause heavy financial loss to
local nurserymen. The beetle can best
De prevented from gaining a foothold
by keeping a close check on indi-
Vldual beetles and killing them as
rapidly as they appear.
