JUNIOR CHURCHMEN
 ID PLAY TONIGHT
Leading Teams and Scorers in
 ACtiOn-WoSiluS on Top

All three leading teams and all five leading scorers in the Junior Church basketball league will be seen in ac- ton at the |. M C. A. this evening as that circuit concludes its first round and begins it's second. The First Lutheran and Trinity Mctho- dist lives, deadlocked for second place with three wins and one loss apiece, will clash in the first game, which is scheduled for 1:45 o'clock, and a torrid battle is predicted. The Lutherans. after losing an overtime contest to the seth church, have come back to defeat all subsequent opponents and, with a we'll alanccd aggregation of young players who have worked together for several years. they will rate as the faVoritc tonight. But the Methodists, who also have not suffered defeat at the hands of any team except the South church. showed surprising form last week when they sent the St. Mark 8 quintet down to q humilating de- feat. The team has been getting better each week and it is hopeful of victory this evening.
 The two Congregational church teams, South and Center will be the opponents in the second game. The South church swept through the first round without defeat and is lead- ing the league. while the Center has been able 10 down only one op- ponent, the First Baptist team. But in it's last three defeats the Center church quintet has put mp a fierce resistance, and. in fact, it was only in the last two minutes of play that the South church was able to ovcr- come it when the teams clashcd be- fore.
 The St Marks Episcopal and First Baptist teams will be idle tonight.
 Dan Wosilus Rcgains Lead
 Dan Wosilus of the South church regaincd the scoring lead last week by shooting six baskets while his long rival, Harold HultberG of the First Luthcrans, was idle. Dan now tops the llcl0 Nlll Jl pOllllS tp Hultbcrg's 4l. Third position is now disputed by q newcomer among the two leader, Kccley of the Trinity Mcthodists. Keclcy ran up lG points last week and crashed his way into the first tivc,' tying Bernard Wosi- Jus. another South church player, with 5 points. Francis Ratings, captain of the South church. is hold ing fifth place.
 The leader, Dan Wosilus. has made the most field goals, 24. while brother Bernie got three out of five fouls to bring his total to seven and again take the lead in this depart ment Gvay from Gordon Ely of the Center church. Ratings shook off all rivals and foulcd his way into first place in the matter of committing personals. He has now been caught in l3 violations.

 The Eagles took the measure of the Boys Club Reserves in the pre- liminary, the score being 20-14. The game Nas hard fought, but the close guarding on both sides slowed it up considerably and made it rather un- interesting for the spectators. The Eagles held the lead throughout the first half, leaving the floor on the long end of an Ills count. In the third quarter they used two substi- tutes and went scorcless, while the Reserves pushed out into the lead. But the last period saw the Eagle regulars back. and Ferony led his team out 10 victory. He and Colwick featured for the wincrs and Nor mant for the losers. The summary:

HOOVER IN TIENTSIN
OCCUPIED WHITE HOUSE
Story Recalled After Thirty Years
How Future President Of
q. s. Lived in China.

~ the Associated Press.
TTENTSIN, China Thirty years ago
Herbert Hoover, then young mining
engineer, lived In another White
House" In Tientsin.
The Chinese, never dreaming they
were prophetic, so named 1t because OF
its appearance.
No longer white after three decades,
the white House" still stands, q for
eign structure, overlapping the low
Chinese buildings around 1t. Here
young Hoover helped direct the early
fortunes of the mining company by
which he was employed.
Changes have come to the compound
in q generation. Chinese basket ball
teams now play there, cheered on by
yelling supporters in the American
fashion. In the Hoovers' time, how
ever, even q coolie would have consid-
cred such Western games beneath his
dignity.
Hoovers and other whites in the settle
ment we're besieged in a building near
the white House" Fires set by the
Boxers to drive the whites from their
stronghold were extinguished only after
they had nearly reached the White
House"
Old-timers in Tientsin remember that
Mrs. Hoover was regarded with special
interest because she was q college grad
uate Higher education for women then
was q new development. Driving was
the Hooyers' favorite recreation. They
were often to be seen in q high dog
cart pulled by China pony.

CANNON TO TELL
OF LOBBY June 8.
Bishop viii Appear Before
Senate Probers to Ex-
plain Dry Activities.

Bishop James Cannon, jr, reelected
head of the board Of temperance and
social service of the Methodist Episeo-
pal Church South, will appear before
the Senate lobby investigating commit
tee on June 8 to explain his part In the
dry lobby maintained here.
In addition to determining what dry
Activities Bishop Cannon is engaged in
at present, the committee wishes to
ask him specifically to explain charges
made against him in connection with
the 1928 campaign, particularly those
having to do with campaign funds.
VIII Be Asked Regarding Funds.
The Southern Bishop, who led the dry
revolt in the South two years ago, will
be asked specifically whether 1t Is true
that he instructed Edwin G. Jameson,
New York insurance company head and
lawyer, to report contributions totaling
Sl72,SO0 in a manner contrary to &C
tual facts.
Testifying before the committee on
Nav 6, Mr.. Jameson said he had given
Bishop Cannon S65,300 for use in the
dry campaign in Virginia. that more
than $1,000 of this was a personal gift
to the churchnan, but that he made
his report to the Senate so that it ap-
peared as though the entire amount had
been split between two Virginia cam
paign committees.
When the committee started to sub
poena associates of Bishop Cannon in
Virginia to ask them about the jane
son contributions, the bishop wired
Senator T. H. Caraway, the chairman,
from Texas, where he was attending
the general meeting Of his church, stat
ing that he had received and admin
istered the entire $65,300.
1--WE certainly want him to explain,
then, why he told Mr.. Jameson to re-
port it differently to the Senate cam
paign fund investigating committee, y
Senator Caraway said.
Bishop Cannon was supposed to ap-
pear before the lobby committee sew
eral weeks ago, but was excused Tempo,
rarily while he attended the general
sessions of his church. Senator Cara
way received telegram from him yes
terday announcing that he would be
ready to appear on June 8.
Resume Testimony Tuesday.
Meantime the committee will resume
hearings Tuesday by receiving testi.
Ynony from officials of the board OF
temperance, prohibition and public
morals of the Methodist Episcopal
Church.
Il is probable that DR.. Clarence True
Wilson, head of the board, will appear
to answer for his organization. The
board was one Of the organizations
named by Representative George H.
Tinkham, Republican, of Massachusetts,,
as leaders of the dry lobby here. Much
Of the week, 1t is expected. will be taken
Up investigating the activities of the
Methodist board, which has been under
IRE for political activities for years.

decisions which we have to make.
Throughout the whole history OF the
human race until the last decade, the
old phrase within the sound OF my
voice meant that the limits were very
narrow for the orator. The printed
word carried much farther. But today,
with the radio, 1t Is possible for the
voice to have national, If not world
wide, scope.
"This makes it more incumbent upon
us than ever to see that those who
are to speak to US have a sound fun

orderly and effective, and that they feel
the responsibility which must apply to
those who speak to an unseen audience.
Requires Extensive Preparation.
''There is something about the rela-
tionShip Of the audience to o speaker
which vitalises and intensifies the Ca
pacities Of the speaker. This Is one OF
those extraordinary human relationships
which we know exists but which we

such stimulation as comes from q visible

ton Of the speaker ut the present time
must be more extensive and thorough
since the appeal he makes Is more e
the intellect than to the emotions.
II consider this one Of the mos
fortunate advances made possible
through the radio. Buncombe over thu

Never Recovered.
His stout heart never recovered from
this political blow. which crushed his
hopes and sent him voluntarily into
retirement. His resignation came at Q
time when two forces in the Church OF
ism ana the other toward stricter OBJ
servance Of the ritual ana ceremony Of
the past, were dividing churchmen into
when Lord Davidson announced he
would resign In July, 1928, there was
much speculation whether his resigna-
ton would hasten the disestablishment
Of the Church of England. To cut the
links traditionally binding the church
and state has been for many years the
aim Of o group within the Church OF
England itself.
Separation Of church and state, how

strong opposition.

Lord Davidson had been ailing for

to his right arm.
