League Standing

Judging from the Stanley Works
victory over Corbins in the Indus
trial baseball league by a 5 to 2
score last night, 1t appears that the
Buttmakers are destined to win the
championship Of the circuit this sea-
son. The Stanley Works team has
kept its undefeated record intact by
last nights win and on the surface.
the team should come through the
rest Of the season to take the PEN
nant. The Stanley Rule & Level
team sprung the surprise of the year
last night by landing on the New
Britain Machine with a vengeance
to win its first game Of the entire
season by II to 2 score.
Stanley Rule-Newmatics
Billy Wolfe with a great defensive
team behind him. pitched the Stan
ley Rule & Level team to its first
victory OF the season last night In
the game on Diamond No. 2 Wolfe
allowed the Newmatics only two hits
and had he not tired in the last in
ming and walked three men, he
would have earned a shutout for
himself. As it was. the Rulers won
with a vengeance. Tired with being
the doormat of the league, they
arose in all their glory with a re-
organized lineup and crashed out 16
hits off the offerings of Richtmyer
and Eric Anderson and scored -
runs to take the game by a Il to ?
score.
The Newmatics we're completely
at the mercy of the Stanley Rule
pitcher. Swanson was the only one
on the team able to connect with his
delivery. He got scratch hit over
the second baseman'S head in the
fifth inning for the first bingle for
the Newmatics Eric Anderson
caught one on the nose that went
sailing through Joe Jervis in left
field for a double.
Richtmyer essayed the pitching
stunt for the Newmatics at the start
of the game but the Stanley Rulers
fell on his offerings like an over
joyed mother meeting her prodigal
son and seven runs on six hits were
made before he retired in favor OF
Eric Anderson. Anderson's first two
opponents singled off him but Simon
tried to stretch his hit into a double
and was nailed at second.
The Rulers got two more In the
third and another pair in the
fourth. They added their last in the
seventh. They also threw away OPP
portunities of making more count

Robinson Thanked
BY Senator Curtis
For Vote Support

Vice President-elect Curtis has
thanked Senator Robinson OF
Arkansas, the man who ran
against him. for the latter's
cordial support you gave me in
the campaign" But, fortunately
for party pride, the thanks were
rendered through a case of mis-
taken identity.
Mr.. Curtis received visual proof
Of his misplaced appreciation in
the Senate yesterday when Sen
ator Robinson produced the letter,
amid roar Of laughter from a
group of Senators who had gath
cred about the two vice presiden-
tial candidates to congratulate or
condole.
It seems, said Senator Robinson,
that after the election, Senator
Curtis was deluged by kilograms
of congratulation, among them
one from Senator Robinson. A
staff of stenographers was en-
ployed to answer the messages
and one of the replies, intended
for Republican supporter. was
Sent to Senator Robinson.
That's what he thinks of my

said yesterday while Senator

Senator Walsh explained the United

League Of Nations is necessary to lay
before the court a request for an opin-

upon, he pointed out, all members would

BIGGER APPROPRIATION
FOR NAVY AIRSHIP ASKED
Builders Have Discovered More Ex-
pensive Non-corroding Metal,
Woodruff Explains.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
A bill proposing to increase from
100000 to 100000 the appropriation
for construction of an experimental
metal airship for the Navy, being built
by the Aircraft Development Corpora
ton of Detroit, was introduced today
by Representative Woodruff, Republic
an. Michigan.
The additional sum was needed,
Woodruff said, because the builders had
discovered a non-corroding metal to re-
place the duraluminum of which the
ship was first to be constructed He
said the ship probably would be able
to take the air next Spring and that
the total cost would amount to about
$750,000, nearly half of which would be
expended by the builder.

the advantage was short-liyed as Yale, allowing a sustained 40 stroke over the first quarter-mile crept into the lead and led by q quarter of length at the half-mile post.
 Passing the navy yard that marks the halfway point. Yale opened water on the fighting Crimson youngsters and from then on it was Yales race. Harvard rallied with a halfsmie 10 go but Yale by this time had lead Of a length and a half.
 The best Harvard could do was to get back a quarter length of that The sprint took all the Crimson had and Yale was pulling away at the end to win by a good two lengths and quarter. Harvard was splash ing bit at the end while Yale was methodically plunging the oars in at better than 40 and getting a great run between strokes.
 The winning Eli freshman crew was bit lighter than the Harvard boat load, but in the junior var sity event the Blue stalwarts had a weight advantage of five pounds to the man and made the most of it, sugging them in at the finish at a clip that sent them four full lengths ahead after they had led all the way except for brief moment at the start.
 See Good Omen
 Yale oaIsmen and supporters saw the double victory in the minor races "s good omen for success in the varsity classic to be rowed at seven o'clock in the evening. but Harvard countered with the reminder that the Crimson took the big event last year after Yale had scored almost as eignally in the morning tits.
 Harvard's varsity crew in launch followed the freshman contest which P. H. Watts. brother of Jack Watts, varsity stroke and captain. rowed a game though losing race at No. g.
 The rain increased to a down. pour as the junior varsity race ended and crimson and blue feathers and banners alike dropped forlornly, al- though Yale support had plenty to cheer about and took full advantage of the opportunity.
 There was little noticeable jm- provement in weather conditions be- fore the big race. The wind continued in the east and caused some size able ripples on the normally placid surface of the Thames.
 If it continues Harvard men see an advantage for their crew as the Crimson giants can make the best use of their great weight in rough going.
