NEW ORLEANS, March 21-QP-Baseball ralbHds who compare the
Cleveland Indians of 1929 with the 1928 edition declare the club has been
improved more than any other outfit in the American League. However,
this diagnosis, if correct, will not necessarily insure the Redskins a high
place in baseball, for they had more room for improvement than most Of
the other clubs. "a

Chess, we are told, Is "a game Of
ancient and obscure origin. II was
probably imported into Europe in
medieval times from the Orient"
Continuing, Webster's says Of chess:
"A game of pure skill played on a
chessboard with chessmen, the play
erS moving alternately until the
king of one is SO attacked that he

Connie Mack. the sage of PhiIs-
oelphla, and well known In the
valley, is always good for a story,
heres n Of recent date:
Shortly before Connie Mack left
Tor the south he received a letter
from one Of the Athletics grand
stand managers, whose name Is le-
glon and whose noise is loud. In
the letter Connie was given the real
loWdoWn on his troubles. He was
told about the mistakes he made
last year, the bones he pulled that
cost the AS the pennant, the things
he should have done instead and
finally was implored in a postscript,
Don't be SO dumb!'
Mack answered that letter in
longhand. His reply ran something
like this: Your welcome letter has
been received and your suggestions
noted. Your knowledge of baseball
is most unusual. So I am writing
to ask what would be your terms to

mark of sincerity that feelers were put out then and there whether he would accept the presidency If of fered, but Mir. Traylor declined even to entertain the idea.
 It is understood similar feelers to Mr. Reynolds met with the same result. Whether their answers will be considered final cannot yet be as certained. The press subcommittee has stated that the presidency has never been considered by the con- ference or subcommittee. Conse- Qucntly the feelcrs put out were necessarily unofficial. As a matter of fact the conference itself is now charged with selection of the presi- dent, but it's advice will have great weight.
 Favor Morrow For Post
 One European expert informed the correspondent that the American delegation considers Dwight w. Morrow the ideal type to head the new bank, but fears he is so com mitted to his Mexican post that he could not accept. In any case it is understood the American delega- ton believes the president must he a man of wide international cXperi- cncc with a long career of useful public service.

Tchitcherin Unable
 To Resume His Work

Moscow, Oct. 22 Cfp - George Tchitcherin, commissar for foreign affairs. who has been ill in Germany more than a year. is still unable, without risk, to resume his duties at Moscow, says a medical bulletin published in today's Izvcstia. The bulletin is signed by four professors who are treating him at Wiosbaden.
 The bulletin discloses that Tchit chcrin for the last four years has been suffering from diabetes, in flammation of the nerves and rheu- matic infection which requires con- stant specialized treatment unavail able in Russia.
 Attending physicians say that only if the present treatment progresses satisfactorily, will it be possible to raise the question of the statesman's return to Meow.

AMERICANS REFUSE BANK PRESIDENCY
Reynolds and Taylor Turn Down
 Offer Of Post

Baden Baden, Germany. Oct. 22 LPp-Jackson l.. Reynolds and Mel win A. Traylor, American delegates to the conference on the bank for international settlements, have both been suggested as possible presi- dents for the new bank, but both are understood to have declined the honor.
 The correspondent today is in q position to reveal interesting details showing how the banks statutes were shaped with the idea that an American president not only will head the new institution, but will have vast powers virtually enabling him to make or unmake it.
 Would Limit Powers
 After failure to launch the candi- dacieS Of q Frenchman and an Italian. the European delegates felt they could never agree on a non- American for president. They also wanted the presidents powers to be limited by a number of vice presi- IflltS W LII NliCilt Jlt NOult IdN' bO share responsibility.
 After listening to the various arguments, MT. Traylor declared that no institution could run with divided responsibility and that no American would think of accepting the presidency if his hands were tied. The next five years, he said, would make or unmakc the bank and hence the organizers must find the best man available and then give him power to go ahead full steam. The American was seconded by the Japanese and when the question came to a vote, his viewpoint was carried unanimously.
 According to one non-American delegate, Mr. Traylor's arguments were so convincing and bore such a

ALL FOR ONE,
ONE FOR
ALL

William Boyd may make as
good q picture as '"The Leather
neck" but he'll never make a
better one.
AS Tex, In the current Earle
presentation, Boyd runs the gaunt.
let of romance and adventure with
two pals, Fuzzy (Alan Hale) and
Buddy Robert Armstrong;. who
desert the United States Marines
to save Tex's Russian. wife, whom
he met and married at the be.
ginning Of the revolution.
The story finds an outlet for its
telling In a Marine court-martial
where Tex is put on trial. There
Is no evidence, save his own word,
to prove that he did not desert the
Marines, one pal, Buddy, having
been killed, while another, Fuzzy.
is insane as q result Of their hunt
ing down an adventurer who
sought to do wrong to Tex's wife.
Tex's story sounds truthful
enough for his commanding of.
ficer, but it fails to convince the
Judge advocate and the court.
Yet. suddenly, when q decision Is
about to be made by the court
Tanya, Tex's wife, finds her way
to Marine headquarters, there to
be discovered by the insane Fuzzy,
who regains his reason at sight
of her.
The wife is allowed to testify
before the court and her story
convinces the Marine officers that
! Tex is not guilty.
Many of the scenes Of THE
Leatherneck" are laid in the
wastelands of Manchuria where
the trio OF Marines are allowed to.
display their art to the camera
eye; and the realism of old China
is effected with good result. "The
Leatherneck" might recall "The
Three Musketeers" or. Beau
GeSte" but the stories are not
akin except in the sense that the
friendship Of three men is founded
on devotion and loyalty to one
another.
