Legion Picks Ex- Moos e Star to Stop Elks Drive
 for Last Half Flag

On the pitching prowress Of Pete Schmitz, Moose mainstay for several years. the American Le- zion aggregation rests its hopes tonight of turning back the Elks' drive for the City Leagues sec end half flag. The Vets lost a tough one to three decision to the Bills last night without the ser vices of Kelly Blake, their only catcher, and are confident they will turn the tables tonight.
 The Elks have Jimmy Manning to start. He ought to be in the best of condition. He has pitched but two innings in almost as many weeks. If they can win this game, it will be impossible to beat them although the Moose, by winning ali the remaining games they have scheduled can tie, forcing a play off for the right to enter the Little Worlds Series.
 The Paps probably will be out. in full force this evening to pull for a Legion victory. The game is billed for 6:3o p. m.

NEW YORK, July % GN.SO.
Following two days of steadily de-
clining prices. cotton futures to-
day displayed a steadier tone with
the run of contracts slightly above
the previous close.
Liverpool cables were about in
line with expectations and weather
reports continued good. There
were 20 July notices issued. Trad
ing in this position ended at noon
today.
Good Trade Buying
The trade was quite a good
buyer. Spot firms also made
some purchases. Japanese in
terests bought near months. The
chief sellers were the South and
New Orleans. Liverpool and the
Continent sold distant positions.
Outside interest continued lack
ing in the ring, since the selling
by those identified in the trade
with the Government cotton agen-
cies possibly may be greater after
August !, when the Farm Board
is clear to begin selling it's allot-
ment of 650,000 bales for the year
dating thence.

By the Associated Press.

CHICAGO, November 24.-Suburban
Cicero, one-time stamping grounds Of
Al Caponc, today resounded with the
promise that an investigation would be
made of assertions that "hoodlum ter
rorism" had crept into the school Sys-
tenn.
Chester Bragg, former president Of
the Berwyn Real Estate Board, said a
committee of citizens would demand the
investigation and would ask an audit
of the books Of the j. Sterling Morton
High School, where most Of the 5000
students are In an uprising.
The students were aroused, they said,
when 40 guards were placed over them
In the halls to maintain order and be-
cause of the discharge OF the head OF
the school cafeteria.
Parents said many Of the guards
were hoodlums and former saloon
keepers" and that the discharged cafe
terra manager was replaced by former
road house keeper.
Frank Svcboda, president Of the
Schccl Board, said the whole thing was

the guards were "hoodlums" and termed
them family men," Besides, he added
there were only 16 persons employed as
guards and that number would pe cul

BY the Associated Press.
BERLIN, November 24.-President
Won Hindenburg has decided to termi-
nate his negotiations with Adolf Hitler,
it was said today in an authoritative
quarter, with a refusal to offer him the
chancellorship in a government respon-
sible only to the Chief Executive.
Some time today, 1t was expected. he
will close the Hitler chapter with a mes
sage to the National Socialist leader re-
jecting Hitler's offer to head a "pre-
sidial" cabinet
He offered Hitler the chancellorship
last week, but stipulated that the Nazi
chief must first assure himself OF sup
port for at least two years from ma
jority In the Reichstag.
Could Not Get Backing.
Hitler could not do that and be con-
sistent, for his political career has been
one of continual opposition to parlia-
mentary government. He could not dc
1t anyway, for the Nationalist under
Alfred Hugenberg, and the Bavarians
in the Reichstag would not support MN
without their support he could not COM
mand a majority.
After celebrating on the question fol
more than a day, the Nazi leader nae
written the President and an autnorl-
tartan presidial cabinet, Responsible te
President Won Hindenburg, De appolnt'
ed. In order not 10 compicate tne siC-

The letter attempted to meet th'
reservations set forth by the Presiden
when he made his conditional offer.
J At Nazi headquarters the opinion hat
been expressed that the communication
paved the way for another personal tan
