Starting out as catcher, Foxx
eventually shifted to third base and
later to the initial station. where
he today is a permanent fixture.
With no chance to displace Mickey
Cochrane as the regular receiver,
the juvenile slugger made a job
for himself.
Though naturally shortstop
Cronin has little chance of getting
much work, and therefore is pre-
pairing himself in order to serve at
any infield position designated
when getting the opportunity.
Spending much time on Sec
Ond and third base during prac-
ticeS he also goes to the first
sack once I'm awhile by way OF
rounding out his experience.
''Ossie is just about the greatest
shortstop in baseball" Cronin
thinks. II realize that my chance
of fitting in at the shortfield with
him around is very small. That's
why I'm flirting with all OF these
other positions.
ANY way you take it, fellow
never hurts himself by learning
three or four jobs. There's al
ways the chance Of a break and !
don't intend passing up any COM

Sunny Joe requests, "he waited
long enough for his chance. Ossie
tells me he was brought to WASH
ington as a shortstop in 1922.

| inpaugh he shifted to third base
and remained there until this year.
Now I am sure if guys like
Bluege and FOxx can make q place
for themselves In the lineup when
their natural positions are taken, l
can do the same thing. There's
always room for fellows like thar.
Anyhow I'm going to keep
plugging away as I've been doing.

BIZ United PreSa

By united PreSS
WASHINGTON, Dec. 18.-For-
midable opposition arose in the
house today to President Hoover'S
plan for a special commission to
investigate conditions in Haiti.
The policy of recent adnlniStra-
lions toward Central and South
American republics, particularly
Nicaragua and Haiti, where marInes
are stationed, was being brought
into question by the Democrats un-
der the leadership Of Representative
Garner of Texas.
Garner protested at the readiness
of the house to authorize money and
power for any sort of commissions
desired by the President. I'VE
might as well quit the congress en-
tirely if we are going to pass on
these things without consideration.
merely because the President sends
special message to congress-" Gar
ner said.
The urgency of the Haitian situa-
ton was stressed by Chairman Smell

-Sideration of the Porter resolution.

sion of seven to be selected by the
President. Smell pointed to Mr.
Hoover's message last week in which
he reported disturbances in Haiti
and the dispatch of more marines to
augment the force already there.
In the background Representative
Huddleston Dem., AlaO was pre-

Their field Is a distinctly new
phase of the dance, inspired by a
passionate urge for the creative. the
forceful and the beautiful. Indi-
vidualism and radicalism are sub
stituted in general measure for
methods, steps and schools.
Critics and lovers of the dance
profess unrestrained interest in an
ticipating additions to the already
extraordinary repertoire Of these
dancers. Whatever Kreutzberg and
Georgi offer is accepted as an i'm
portant adjunct to dance history.
Their numbers this season include
many new arrangements as well as
revivals of their most sensational
dances of last season.
Accompanying Kreutzberg and
Georgi this season is Frederick Will
kens, widely known European COM
poser and pianist, who has assisted
the dancers in many OF their out
standing arrangements.
These dancers will appear at Eng
lish's on Sunday afternoon, Dec.
20, and on Tuesday night, New
Years Eve. Two different programs
will be given.
Indianapolis theaters today offer:

WARNS AGAINST
DESTRUCTION OF
LIGHT ARRESTER
Danger May Result From
Effort to Halt Radio
Interference.
BY JOHN L. HAWKINS,
Times Ra do Editor

indianapolis Power and Ligh;
Company engineers lately have been
running up against a serious prob
lem relative to radio interference
In the past, some radio trouble has
been traced to lightning arresters on
the company's circuits.
Following this line of reasoning, 1t
appears that many radio enthusiasts
have heard noises in their receivers
and Immediately placed the blame
on a lightning arrester that hap
pened to be on a transformer set up
in their alley.
The next bit of action on the part
Of this misguided listener has been
TO get out the family ak and take
a good whack at the wire running
down the pole to the ground from
the arreSter.
Interference Goes On
All this in the belief that radio
interference would stop Immediately.
However, the radio interference con-
tinues merrily on and the homes
being supplied from that particular
line are without the protection given
by an arreSter in the circuit.
There are grave possibilities Of
danger in damaging equipment in
this way. Should lightning strike
the circuit leading to the trans
former, and, not finding a ready
path to ground through an arreSter,
burn a connection between the high
voltage primary circuit and the lines
feeding the house. all sorts of deadly
possibilities are apparent.
Might BE Killed
For instance, one side of the house
line may be at potential of sew
eral thousand volts between it and
the ground.
Then should any one happen to
be we'll grounded. touching d water
pipe. in the bath tub, or other SINH
lar case. and touch any light fix
tire that happened to be grounded
on the light circuit. radio interior
ence for that particular party would
cease to be of any matter. He would
be killed instantly.
