Our club lost two games last
week, on Friday to Dagsboro 11-S,
and on Saturday to the Vandever
A. c. of Wilmington 40, just too bad,
but we are up against the same thing
that most all clubs in small towns
are-dissensions and jealousy with
in the ranks, and the sooner our
boys get that out of their systems,
the better it will be for them and
the club, and if any of the players
read this, we want them to know
that there is not a player on the
team that is BIGGER than the team.
Milford management hit us a hard
blow when they got their covetous
eyes on Jim Postles, and took him
from us, then we got Bole Smith,
and Milford soon had him, then we
got Babb and Harrington got him
long enough to give Milford a beat
ing, now if we should happen to get
Grove, Freitus or Gomez down here
we presume that Milford would take
thems away from us. Nothing like
having a GOOD ANGEL to back the
club.

BLAZE REVEALS
BURGLAR TOOLS

Police today were seeking to
learn why a number of guns, a
quantity Of ammunition and safe
cracking tools were cached in
the basement Of the George P.
Killian Paper Company, 1900
block of Pennsylvania Ave. NV,
the fifth floor of which was
swept by fire early yesterday.
The cache was discovered when
one of the guns accidentally dis
charged, wonding Buddy Bald
win, ~, Of HyattSville, Md, in the
hand. Baldwin was one of sew
eral persons cleaning debris re-
sulting from the fire from the
basement.
The discovery of the cache
was one of several startling
aftermaths of the fire which sent
S. E. Killian, son of the pro-
prietor, and a fireman to Emer-
gency Hospital for treatment.
KilIian disappeared from the
hospital after treatment and his
failure to show up in District
Supreme Court where he was on
trial on a narcotics charge led
to a miStrial.
Fire Marshal Calvin Lauber
made an investigation of the
blaze yesterday, but decided that
it had started from a cigarette
dropped on a bed on the fifth
floor where Killian was sleeping
at the time.
