Chlef May Have to Give His Boys
Some Lessons in Spanish.
Police Chief Mike Morrissey is
contemplating sending some of his
officers to night school on the theory
that a study of modern languages
might aid them in making arrests.
Hot Latin blood reached the
boiling point Friday night for Alex
ander Ochoa, $751; East Wabash
street, a Mexican. Ochoa brooded
over his real or fancied wrongs at
the hands of Sof Corona, AZ, of 427
West New York street, a Spaniard,
and went to Cerona's home with a
large knife.
Corona told police Ochoa struck
him and then drew the knife.
Due to the inability of officers
Charles Winkler and Harry Hayes
to understand Spanish, they were
unable to learn what the fight was
about.
They arrested Ochoa on charges
OF drunkenness, drawing a deadly
weapon and assault and battery.

Yankees, in This Case, Would

~LEVELAND, August o.
With only 81 more games

ship. Although they have played
but 500 base ball the past week,
which is something of a slump for
them, the Yankees have done no
better so the Capital clubmen en-
Joy today a league lead of 812
games just as they did last Tues
day before jumping into their
series with the Tigers.
Should they win but Is more games
and they would have to 90 at only q
little better than a 500 clip to do
that-the Nationals could be overhauled
only if the Yankees took rs of their
remaining 80 games. And the Yanks
appear nothing like an 800 ball club
these days.
Every licking the Yankees get
at this stage of the pennant race
counts heavily in the Nationals
favor.
The defeat handed the New Yorks in
Detroit yesterday while the Cronin crew
ddled here means the return Of the
latter to Washington after the wind
ND of this final Western tour of the
season with nothing less than a lead
Of 7 games over the second club in
the championship race.
And to have their lead as low as 7
games the Nationals would have to
take beatingS in both parts of the double
bill that was to be played with the In
dians and the YankS would have to
triumph over the Tigers today.
From any viewpoint, the Na-
