VATICAN |S NOT INTERESTED IN
 J. s. POLITICS
IF CATHOLIC IS ELECTED PREsi- DENT WILL NOT CHANGE
 THINGS ONE PARTICLE

ROME, March 1e. (R-Cardinal Mundelein of Chicago is convinced the Vatican is not interested in the Ameri can Presidential campaign because it is "too far away and the issues are too involved".
 As to the candidacy of Governor Smith the Cardinal said During my whole weeks stay in Rome the sub- jest was not broached once to or by me in either of my two talks with the Pope or any other talks with high ly placed prelates. They really are not interested. They know if a Catho- lie is elected it will not change things one particle.
 "The Catholic church in America contends that with no oppressive leg islation has no political axe to grind and lives and thrives under the ex- isting form of Government; therefore. there is no reason whatever for it to take this partisan stand" The re- ligious situation in Mexico was not brought up by the Pope or by others, the Cardinal said

 End Of 6 to Q SC0re

Battling through four stiff peri ods. the New Britain Blues football team went down to defeat by the score of 6 to 0 at the hands ot the Manchester Cubs yesterday after- noon. It was one of the hardest fought games of the season and the players on both teams were pretty we'll all in when the final whistls blew.
 A dropped punt and two forward passes brought the ball to the Blues two-yard line. Here. holding like a stone wall. the Blues made the Cuba take four downs to bring the oval over for the only score of the game. Rhem dropped the punt and Msrkie' Manchester full-back scored the touchdown.
 The Blues made desperate at- tempts to come back to tie the count. Kyeski and Rehm led an at- tack that brough the ball to ths Cubs five-yard line. Poor field judg- ment here lost eight yards for the locals aid spoiled their chances to score. Near the finish of the game. the Blues made desperate attempts to throw long passes. Two of them brought the ball to the Cubs 2O- yard line. The Blues had the edge in first downs making 13 to II for the op- position.
