Five, None Officially Recognized
Installed in Pueb1a.

MEXICO CITY, January S (P)-
Five separate legislatures, none of which
has yet been officially recognized, were
installed today in the state of Puebla.
The uncertain situation created is
feared as one that may give rise to
disorders, although dispatches from
Puebla this afternoon reported all was
quiet.
Four of the legislatures are comprised
each of the followers of as many diff
ferent candidates in the recent guber-
material elections which each asserts
their party won. The fifth sprang up
at the last moment with the claim that
none of the other four is entitled to
recognition.

The Indians didn't break any bats
Wednesday, but got nosed out again,
8 to 8, and the home FASTENERS were
to mingle with the Millers in the
third of the series this afternoon
and pray for better luck. The OBJ
stacle Wednesday was a rookie out
fielder by the name of Stanley
Keyes, who patrolled the left garden
for the Minneapolis outfit and drove
in three runs with single and
double. Being a stranger to them,
the Tribe fingers we're at loss to
figure him out and as a result he
made himself very important on his
new job. He joined the Millers only
Wednesday from Asheville.
Pardon Me, Please!
Reyes once collided with Frank
Emmer, Miller shortstop, on a pop
fly in short left, and Frank was
knocked down while making the
catch, but as the veteran escaped
injury the rookie escaped disgrace
and he made up for that mistake
by masssging the sphere at the
plate. He batted in one mate in
the first inning and two in the
fourth.
