HURLEY To HUR[
FOR c. u. TODAY

Lou Hurley probably win draw
the assignment to hurl against
Bucknell this afternoon for Cath
olic University in the Brookland
stadium. The husky sophomore was
a great pitcher on last years fresh
man nine but has failed to flash
any of that form yet this year.
However, Coach Clark is hopeful
that Lou has finally rounded into
form and hopes that today is the
day.
The Cardinals have failed to dent
the win column in six starts this
year. Losing streaks cant last
forever, though, and in an effort to
bolster his club Coach Clarke has
shifted Capt Mansfield from first
to second base and placed Gene
Murphy on the doorway.
The latter is a pitcher by
trade. Strained ligamentS in his
shoulder prevent slabbing duties
but will not impair his casual
throwing obligations at first.
He also is expected to add
punch to the C. u. OffenSe for
he is reputed to carry an active
bat.
Tomorrow afternoon the c. T..
tennis team, after having lost the
chance to play three other matches
because Of bad weather, entertainS
Maryland in the first match for
both at Brookland. The latter's

.SLAYERS OF NARROW
 SOUGHT IN BOSTON
(Continued From First Page)

\NCHtIlANu IOuI II St a&cJ running down leads given Com- missioner Whalen by Dan Carroll. Boston boxing manager. and John- ny Wilson. former Boston pugilist. during questioning yesterday.
 Public Opinion Aroused
 Spurred on by a tremendous pub lie protest over disclosures of | widespread liquor racket here, two squads of Boston officers devoted the early morning hours to mop ping up local speakeasies and hansouts of local gangsters.
 All leads, Boston officers said, seem to point toward the north end here.
 Both the New York and Boston officers were disappointed at their unsuccessful search early today and authorities of both cities were at the same time confident that they had struck a very definite vein of leads.
 At least one arrest, and that one which might well hold the key to the situation. was expected during the day as scores of local officers kept sharp watch for "a notorious cunman and prominent married woman"

Duchess Saves Two
 From Eviction in France

Nice. France. June go, R}-Gen- erosity of the former Anna Gould. now Duchess De TallcyraM. pro- bably will permit the aged French General Rambaud and his wife to round out their life at their home here.
 In 1926 the rent on the Ram baud's little apartment was increas- ed from 1,s0O to $500 francs a year. Mme. Rambaud refused to pay the increase. and to designate her disapproval refused to pay the orig inal amount either.
 An order for eviction and confis- cation was obtained four days ago but when police appeared they found the doors and windows barri- caded and the irate wife of the old soldier refused to let them or court officials in.
 The Duchess De Talleyrand learn ed of the affair and wired officials at Nice. asking the amount of the debt and indicating she would pay it. They answered 15,oOo francs. or about $500.
 The generals health Is bad and he is compelled to remain indoors Mime. Rambaud. however. has gone about her marketing as usual.

 Meanwhile Italian and Portuguese ships and planes had started in search for them and even q German plane was being prepared.
 The British government acquiesc- ed immediately in the Spanish re . quest and the Eagle" began SCOUT Ing the seas between the European coast and the Azores. Airplanes were sent out and scanned wide areas. but without success. Finally the Eagle" turned toward Gibral- tar to cover a line from the Azores to the entrance of the Mediterranean over which Major Franco would likely have flown. That this course was successful is indicated by todays 2 news.
 Spain Thanks England
 The Spanish minister of marine today telegraphed the British ad- miralty at Gibraltar as follows:
 Just received news of the Eagles finding of the Spanish hydro-air- plane. l am deeply grateful. I thank you wholeheartedly for the splendid help given by the British marines"
 The British ambassador in Ma drid. Sir George Graham, visited the minister of marine personally to ex- tend congratulations.

0VERL0ADS TRUCK.
 PAYS HIGH FINE
Driver Had z 1.2 Tons Excess
 Weight on Vehicle,

The heaviest fine ever imposed in local police court on the charge of overlooking an automobile was met ed out by Judge NJ. D. Saxe today when he assessed John Quigley, 27. of White avenue, Waterbury, S25 and costs. Several cases of overload ing have been heard in court during ing the past few weeks and the pen alty has been $l5 and costs, but Quigley. according to Motorcycle Of- ficer Alfred Tanguay, was driving a truck which was overloaded with boxed steel to the amount of seven and one-half tons.
 Prosecuting Attorney Mitchell G. Meyers of Waterbury represented Quigley and entered a plea of nolo contendere. Officer Tanguay testified that he made the arrest last Friday on West Main street and the load was so heavy the driver could not use high gear. Two trucks besides the one which was overloaded were used by the police to carry the load which was weighed on the Russell & Erwin factory scales.
 Attorney Meyers told the court that Quigley, in 10 years of driving. had never been arrested for any vio- lation of the motor vehicle laws, and in this instance truck broke down in Naugatuck and the load was transferred to another truck which was turned over to Quigley the next morning when he reported for his days work. Had the owner or night driver been about in the morning, they would have been in a position to preclude the violation, but as 1t was. Quigley simply took the truck out without realizing it was over loaded. the lawyer said.
 Prosecuting Attorney Woods ask ed Officer Tanguay if Quisley had told him any of the circumstances and the officer replied negatively. adding that anyone having any knowledge of truck could tell at once that the load was too heavy for the truck.
 spet4ler Fined S1O
 Fred R. Anderson, 2l. of 6S Hill- crest avenue. pleaded not guilty to the charge of speeding. but was found guilty and fined s1o and costs. On charges of driving an automo- bile without having his operators license and certificate of registration in his possession, judgment was sus- pended.
 Officer Hanford Dart testified that he was driving south on Frank lin Square about 9:15 last Wednes- day evening and followed Anderson as far as Mill street. The latter passed the intersection of Ellis and South Main streets without mate rially reducing his speed from bet ter than 35 miles an hour"
 Anderson testified that the car he was driving could not go 35 miles an hour. Going through South Main street he made four complete stops on account of the traffic. he said. He produced his license in court. and also the certificate of reg istration. the car being registered 'n the name of Donald kerin of Sefton Drive.

 of Oklahoma, Kentucky and Mis- souri. One of them. James C. Stone of Lexington. represents the tobacco growing industry, another, c. B. Denman of Pennington. Mis- souri. is identified with livestock. and the third. Carl Williams Of Oklahoma City. for years has been identified with the American Cotton Growers exchange. Williams, however, also has had a variety of experience with wheat associations and cooperative mar keting organization and some leaders felt that his appointment was not intended so much to give cotton a representative on the board as to put on man of gen. eral interest. If this view is cor rect, an out-and-out cotton man still is to be named. and there have been reports that the president has in mind a Georgian for this pur- pose.
 It has been supposed in authori- tative quarters at the capitol that Rice would have q representative in the appointment of Arthur P. Knapp of Lake Charles, Louisiana, a banker who has had experience in financing the exportation of that commodity.
 If MT. Hoover should name both Knapp and a Georgia cotton man. this would leave only two places 10 so to the middle western wheat, corn and dairy belt. since it has been assumed that the eighth place will go to Alexander Legge. presi- dent of the International Harvester company. whose appointment Is !E- tended to satisfy requests that an outstanding businessman be placed on the board.
 Charles c. Teague of the Cal- fornia Citrus league. whom the pres ident is understood to have wanted on the board, has declined to be considered.
 Favor Middle West
 Most of the farm leaders who have been watching the evolution of the board profess to feel certain that one and perhaps two members will be appointed from the section embracing North and South Dako- ta, Minnesota. Nebraska, Iowa and Wisconsin. Two members from this territory would give majority of the most important basic farm com modities representation.
 Whatever the personnel of the completed board proves to be-and | President Hoover expects it to be organized by August-the members will be subjected to the closest scrutiny by the senate agriculture committee when their nominations are submitted to the senate in Au- gust for confirmation. Extensive hearings on the appointments are contemplated, and some members of the committee already have asked Chairman McNary not to be- gin these until all can be present representing, as they do, every great farm commodity except the citrus industry.
