League Standing

While springing the biggest sur prise in the Senior City league this season. the West Ends knocked the Pirates right out of first place Sat urday when they took the Corsairs into camp by to 1 score. The defeat puts the Pirates into a sec- ond place tie with the Burritts who nosed out the Holy Cross team in an exciting battle on Diamond No. ?. The Sokols had an easy time in swamping the Senecas. to q and thereby they stepped into the league lead.
 West Ends 2-Pirates
 The West Ends sprung a real sur prise when they downed the Pirates in a seven inning game. The win ners were fortunate in getting the game as they had but eight regular players when it was .time for them to take the field but the Pirates waived the eligibility rule and al lowed them to use Recano, of the Senecas, and agreed to allow the re- suit of the game to go in the official record.
 Tommy Blanchard's pitching was the deciding factor of the contest. The Pirates were unable to hit him with men on bases and that tells the story of the game.
 On the other hand ragged fielding by the Pirates gave the winners their chance to score but they managed to hit when they had opportunities to score.
 The Pirates entered the game with a spirit of overconfidence and when the West Ends got the jump on them they were never able to fully recover.
 Tommy Basil opened the game with a drive to centerfeld. By fast fielding this could have been held to a single but Fink let the ball get past him and Basil pulled up at sec ond.
 George Campbell poked a sacrifice fly to right field with put Basil on third. Cormier grounded to Schmarr who felded the ball rather slowly. allowing Basil to score and Cormier to reach first. Cormier got nailed at third as the result of some poor base running shortly afterwards and Erickson went out on a fly to cut this rally short.
 With one out in the third, Hal Beagle belted a triple down the third base line and scored on an infeld out to tie the count
 The winners put over the deciding run in the fifth. Blanchard ground cd to Schmarr to. open the frame but the latter heaved wildly 10 first all lowing the batter 10 make second On an infeld out. Blanchard moved to third from where he scored on George Campbell's scratch hit through Beagle and Begley.
 Brooks pitched rather indifferently for the Pirates, being apparently disgusted with the poor support he received. On occasions, however, he bore down to pull out of some diff cult holes
 A double. triple and single by Bea~le gave him the batting honors for the day.

 In battle that was nip and tuck until the last half of the ninth in- ming, the Burritts nosed out the Holy Cross team by the score of 8 to :. The contest was staged on Diamond No. and was one of the most ex- citing seen in some time in the league.
 The Burritts went into the lead in the first inning, strengthened their margin in the second only to lose the advantage when the Holy Cross team rallied in the fifth. The Bur- ritts came back to tie the count in their half of the fifth and from that time on, neither team was able to do much. Two hits, however, coupled with stolen base by Charlie Ga domski, the hero of the game, scored the winning run before anyone was out in the last half of the ninth in- ming.
 "Butsy' Zembko, slow motion twirler of the Burritts, occupied the mound for the winners. He was op- posed by Eddie Krystopa, Holy Cross ace. Zembko. although exasperat- ing to watch, twirled in neat fashion. He was touched up for seven hits but he struck out Il men and walked three.
 Fits of Uildness on the part of krystopa, served to put him in bad holes and cost him some runs in the second inning. At other times, he was aces on control but the damage caused by three passes cannot be overlooked when the summary of the game is complete.
 The Holy Cross team opened the scoring in the first inning by scoring two runs on wild throw to first by Dalkowski. The Burritts came back and scored three in their half. They scored three times again in the sec ond while the Holy Cross team was going scoreless.
 In the fifth. the Holy Cross team batted around to score five runs and lead to 6. Two hits gave the Bur- ritts the tying counter in the last half of the fifth.
 The Holy Cross team was helpless in the last four innings. For three of these, the Burritts were unable to do anythi~-. Charlie GadomsN got his fourth hit 10 lead off in the ninth. He stole second. Dalkowsk than plastered single to deep cen- ter and Gadomski brought in tho winning run,
 Gadomski with four hits in four trips, led the winners at bat klep- acki hit hard for the losers. Fitz- patrick turned in the fielding fea- ture when he stabbed a drive with one hand between first and second to make a put out at first.

 CALLAHAN AGENT
Chooses Former Secretary to Aid
 in Election Campaign

Appointment of Matthew J. Cal lahan as his political agent was made today by former Mayor An gelo M. Paonessa, democratic nomi- nee for sheriff of Hartford county. Callahan was secretary to Paonessa during the latter's last term as mayor from 1928 to 1880.
 Addressing a we'll attended rally of Italians at democratic headquar- ters last night, Chairman Thomas J. Smith of the town committee sug. gested that the slogan in the local campaign be Send Angelo to jail and make judge of Bill Mangan' in view of Paonessa's candidacy for sheriff and William F. Mangan's candidacy for judge of probate.
 Judge Mangan, asking for support for the entire ticket. mentioned the illness of his republican opponent, Judge B. w. filling, and said some voters might regard it as unsports- manlike to wage an active campaign against him, but the fact is, Judge Mangan said, that Judge filings lieutenants are handling his cam paign and considerable work is be- ing done in his behalf.
 The importance of the office of judge of probate was stressed by Judge Mangan and he urged his lis- teners to weigh we'll the qualifica- tions of the candidates before cast ing their votes. He considered that he possessed the ability and had had the experience necessary to fill the office in a creditable and efficient manner. ,..

 Until the officers make the ar rests, the identity of the persons named in the indictments will not be known, as the true bills were returned secretly and will not even be entered upon the docket of the federal court of the western district of Louisiana at Shreveport, until the execution of capiases.

FORCED MIGRATION
 NOW COMPLETED
Tribgnlen Removed to Mediter- ranean Coast to Combat Rebel

Bengal, Cirenaica, Africa, Oct. 4 R}-One of the greatest forced mi grations of a people in recent cen- turies has just been completed with utmost secrecy in the hinterlands of Cirenaica and Tripoli, north Africa.
 Eighty thousand tribesmen with coo, ,000 head of cattle, tents, provis- ions and household goods have been in an effort to combat the powerful rebel tribe of Omar Fl Muctar in the Gebel district.
 Through the enforced migration General Graziani, Italian military chief in the area, hopes to cut off the rebel tribesmen from food and supplies, munitions, recruits, animals and the traditional tithe of one tenth of the possessions of surrounding tribe which they heretofore have been forced to pay as tribute.
 Omar Fl Muctar is strongly en- trenched fin the difficult terrain of Gebel in >the midst of hills and woods. Armored car squads, two of which are manned by black shirts or Fascist militia, are penetrating through the desert plains of Mar marica and surrounding Omar Fl Muctar's position.
 The ministry of war and of col onies offices announced yesterday that the migration was an accom- plished fact.
 The tribesmen, surrounded by colonial troops, moved on their own camels hundreds of miles over desert land to the coast. Wells had been prepared and vast tracts of land set aside for them where their cattle can graze. They will live on the coast throughout the winter.

And what does all this mean? Surely, you don't think that Ghulam Bulk did some white magic!" Howard stared out into the empti- ness that surrounded them. T don't know, Dagger" he con- fessed. There are forces in this world that few of us understand. The strongest power in mans pos session is an idea, a thought. Per | haps you had been building up a whole chain of thoughts in your pilgrimage, a chain which carried you to Ghulam Bulk, and impelled him to will that aviator to meet me and then influenced Chang to ad- nit to you I was alive. And if you knew Chang as we'll as;I did, you'd realize that that was the most re- markable act in the chain" 'I wonder" exclaimed Dagger And yet there's reason in your theory. It was Raoul who moved me to follow your trail, Blaine. And Sidi Marut gave me courge to go on to India. And Ghulam Buk-yes, it all does dovetail."
 She fumbled in her brooches pocket. and produced the jade luck piece the Tu-chun had given her. By the way" she continued, q can't help thinking we'll of Chang. He gave me this luck-piece. He'd carried it ever since he was a boy"
 My God" exploded Howard, snatching at the carved bit of stone, handsbreath long. 'D'you realize what that meant? D'you know what's happened? But no, you didn't see the papers that came to. day. Dagger, this thing was famous all over China. Men have died try ing to steal it. Attempts were made to assassinate Chang simply in order to. win it. And yesterday one succeeded. His train was blown up just outside of the Sung-fu sta tion."
 "Ohi" Dagger's mouth quivered. How terrible! But it wasn't be- cause he gave it to me, Blaine. That's ridiculous!"
 my iiloiC lIldu lIldJ your thoughts built a bridge over which we might come together? No. Chang gave it to you deliberate ly. He believed implicitly in luck Or call it destiny. if you choose. And he believed that his luck was dependent upon this stone. When he gave it to you he was giving a hostage to his luck He was saying, in effect: This woman is all to me. Bring her to me. If that may not be, I do not choose to live!" - But it cant be true" she in- sisted. Blaine, it's only a little piece of jade that's cold when you touch it, with a dragon twistin, around it. How could that kill a man?"
 'It didn't kill him. What killed him was the power that he attribut- ed 10 it in his mind. Thought, again. What you believe in, if you believe with sufficient conviction, is very likely to happen"
 Dagger took it back from him
 Shall we throw it away?" she asked suddenly.
 Why"
 Well, if we believe in it, as you say, it will help to keep us happy. 1 If we don't or if we lose it--"
 He frightened his arm around her waist.
 Suppose we keep it-in memory O. Chang" he interrupted. But lets believe in each other If we believe truly, no harm can injure us"
 wen keep it." she decided. "We'll call it the luck of the Oasis, and whenever we go away it will have to bring us back"
 Do you want to go away?" he asked, laughing.
