RASkOB IN CHARGE
General Motors Chief to
Direct Campaign of New
York Governor.
BY PERCY B. SCOTT
Omitted Press Staff Cor,lspon(


NEW YORK, July ll-With hope
in their hearts and 100000 in their
treasury, leaders of the Democratic
party met today with Gov. Alfred
T.. Smith, their nominee for presi-
dent and placed themselves at his
command for the ensuing campaign.
The governor s first conference
of the day was with Senator James
\. Reed, who campaigned against
Smith for the nomination at Hou-
ston, but who now has agreed to
use his political acumen and his
lashing tongue to promote the in
terests Of the party's candidate.
Senator Reed was called into the
governor $ suite at the Biltmore no.
tel for a breakfast conference be-
fore any Of the national committee
men or other leaders had left their
rooms
After the meeting with Reed,
whom Smith asked to come here
from Missouri the governor will
meet with members of the Demo
fratic committee to name a chair
nan to direct the campaign and to
set date for the official notifiea-
tion at Albany.
John .. Raskob, who rose from n
$3.50 week stenographer TO the
status of u giant in the world of
finance, was selected to direct the
presidential campaign of Governor
Smith, former newsboY.
The chairman Of the finance com
mittec of the General Motors cor
poratien was Smith S own choice for
the chairmanship of the Democratic
national committee which ratified
his selection at it's meeting here.
Marks Climax
Raskob's election marked eli
max in the organization for the
campaign by leaders of the Demo
cratic party. They met here with
Smith and his running mate, Senator
Joseph Robinson of Arkansas and
Senator James \. Reed of Missouri,
who opposed Smith for the prcsi-
Dental nomination at Houston.
There is striking parallel in the
careers of Smith and Rasliob. Both
rose from humble beginnings to po-
sitions of leadership in their rcspec-
tive fields; both are born leaders;
both are Catholics and both believe
that the prohibition laws should be
changed.
While Smith was working his way
through the Tammany school of pol
itics and selling fish in the Fulton
market, Raskob asked his employer
for more money and was turned
down. He then heard of a man
named Z. s. Dupont in Lorain, Ohio.

\ squadron Of army planes from
Crissy Field eruised over the Malolo
as il entered thc\ Golden Gate and
an official welcoming party from
the tug Sea Scout boarded the
Liner just outside the harbor.
Whistles and sirens of craft in
the harbor sounded a noisy welcome
as the Malolo moved slowly up to
its pier, where hundreds were wait
ing eagerly for a sight of the two
airmcn.
The squadron of army planes took
off as soon as the Malolo appeared
through the fog outside the Golden
Gate and escorted the vessel into
port.
A few moments later civilian
planes led by Frank A. Flynn of the
National ,Aeronautical Assoc alton
flew over the Malolo, dropping 10

ship.

the Southern Cross navigator, was
one of the party that boarded the
Malolo from the Sea Scout. She ran
up to her husband and threw heI
arms about him.
The giant siren at the ferry build
ing and whistles and bells on shore
took up the chorus of welcome as
the Malolo noscd into its slip.
Large crowds gathered on Lands
End and watched the aerial RECEIPT

while another throng WIS packed
around the pier.
At the pier the municipal band
struck up a martial air but was
scarcely heard above the general
din.

cuddy's up there again.
After fourteen weary years Of
waiting; Of endless experiments with
infields that reminded him Of that
famous million dollar fprescnt
values) combination Of 1914 only be-
cause they were so different; OF con-
slant and patient training Of young
sters who quite made the major
league grade-after all the bitter dis
appointments Of more than a decade,
the tall taeiturn taetician OF the
Philadelphia Athletics again is on
the threshold Of the promised land
that has eluded him so long.
On top of the American league
standing are the Philadelphia Ath-
letics today, the first time since 1914
they've reached the crest &C this
stage Of the season. In that year OF
the dim baseball past, Connie won
the Pennant but lost four straight
TO the Boston Braves in the worlds
series. Then he broke up his super
team, little knowing how long il
would be before he moulded together
a successor worth of the name.
True enough, the As title to the
lead Is not clear. They hold il on
even terms with Miller Higgins stag
gering champions, the New York
Yankees. But the advantage, for the
moment at least, is all in Connie
Mack's favor. The Yankees are fall
tcring badly. shorn as they are Of the
overwhelming confidence hat was
theirs early in July when they had
blasted their way to a l3-game lead
over the field.
The AS crashed through TO the top
with a bang yesterday with a double
triumph over the Red Sox while the
Senators were taking the Yankees
measure in both games Of a double
header. The results Of those four
affrays left the Philadelphians and
the 1927 champions tied at the top
with 81 victories against AZ defeats.
Grove held the Sox 70 four hits,
struck out IL men and came home
with a 1 10 0 victory in h first
game at Boston. In the nightcap,
the Mackmen scored five runs in
the first two innings and were never
headed. winning 7 70 2.
The Senators whipped the Yankees
decisively. While Hadley held the
fanks TO three hits in the opener,
IN Senators pounded their old team
mate. Zachary. and Ryan for 10 hits
and an ii to 0 triumph, Firp0 Mar
berry outpitched Waite Hoyt by a
wide margin in the second contest
which went - the Senators, 6 to !.
With SO much drama in the Amer
