CRON|N LAUDS
HILL WORK
Of BOTH
BY GARRETT WATERS
Times Staff Correspondent


CLEVELAND, Aug. 28.-Maybe
it's not the time to make expert
ments, but Manager Joe Cronin
made two yesterday in the second
game of the Griffs double-header
with the Cleveland Indians, and
as fortune would have it, both
turned out to be most successful.
The first of these was the in.
sertion of Alec McColl, the Chat.
tanooga pitcher, into the game in
the third inning as the rescue man
for Gen. Alvin CroWder, who had
just given the tribe six runs after
seven hits and base on balls.
The second was the employment
of Ed Chapman, rookie hurler, as
McColls relief after that player
had been removed for Pinch Hit
ter Sam Rice in the seventh in
ming.
His First Appearance
McColl's appearance was his
first as a. big Lacquer, while
Chapman'S was his second, as
about three weeks ago he faced
the Philadelphia AS in starting
assignment at Griffith Stadium.
Both hurlers, as mentioned, made
good in these special tests, and
their performances indicated
Manager Cronin can call upon
them oftener.
McColl probably had the most
difficult assignment, forced to
step into the box at a moment
when the Indians were in their
most vicious batting mood. But,
taking in all this, McColl easily
disposed of the Tribe during his
stay on the hillock, giving up
but three hits. Nothing unnerved
him, not even that noisy, milling
mob of $4,000 which packed the
stands.
AS to Chapman, his per.
formance gave out every i'm.
preston that he is quite pitcher,
after all, as he retired the In
dians in order in the eighth,
striking out Vosmik, the first
batter to face him, while he
calmly erased his opponents in
the ninth without a score, despite
the fact that Brown collected a
single off his shoots after Cissell
and Pytlak had popped up flies
to the infield.
Cronin Praises Both
''They really showed some
thing" Manager CrOnin voiced
after the game. "And I'm
mighty glad, as now both can
be relied upon for relief duty.
Before, we've had to work Jack
Russell and even General Crow
der to the limit as relief pitch
erS.
81 don't think there will be
any doubt as to McCOIl'S
chances of delivering in the
future, as he's veteran in the
game and knows what it is all
about. And if Chapman pitches
Shrewdly, as he did today, he'll
be of great help. He was
throwing his foot up and being
generally more deceptive, lack
of which spoiled his debut
against the AS in Washington.
But he looks good now"

He'll Do for Us

Well back AL Schacht for
that honor against the crop,
and you can have your Fletch-
ers and Bill Folks and all
the others. And Furthermore,
If your mind is open about
this subject, we believe we
can prove our contention and
theory.
IN the first place, the
Smartest baseball man around
these days and that goes for
the last 35 years, is Clark
Griffith.
Nobody in the sport knows
better than Griff how essen
tial a fast-thinking alert third
base coach is to the success
of a ball team. So, it stands
to reason Griff wouldn't have
anything else hanging around
his coaching line. It stands
to reason, too, that AL Schacht
knows all the tricks, all the
Subterfuge of opposing strategy
and all the answers to any
problem that may come up,
no matter on how short notice.
He grabs the signals off the
bench and relays them to their
proper destination. His work
doesn't show in the score. But
he is kept, year after year.
That should mean something.
We have even heard it said
he is the brains" behind our
playing combination, but we
would not say that is exactly
so, because there are plenty of
brains around that club out
side of Schacht's.

All of the Facts

Leastways, we have heard
that statement made many
times, and it's got to be consid-
cred along with all of the other
facts about Al Schacht. Clark
Griffith nor any other baseball
magnate ever declared a divi-
dend because he kept men
around him for love or per.
sonal admiration.
Too, we don't wish to particu-
larly emphasize this reputation
Schacht has for smart, clever,
shrewd baseball thought, be-
cause think it rightly belongs
to Joe Cronin.
You will recall a lot of fans

1884.
The probabilities are that the
dethroned queen will pop up in
her Berkeley (Cal0 home within
a few days, do "Garbo" for a
couple of weeks, and then it
wouldn't be surprising to have
her announce she was through
with the game. The gap which
separated the great Moody from
the rest of her rivals was closed
tight by Princess Helen's gallant
and intelligent play mob body

Moody herself.
In contrast to Queen Helen, the
new champion was very much ac-
ceSsible to the public today. Be.
sieged by friends bringing con-
gratulations and reporters seek
ing stories, Miss Jacobs was all
smiles and tremendously happy in
greeting all who sought her.

duration, after which she will
take flying trip back to the
coast. and then hustle back to
New York.
Miss Jacobs has aspirations as
an author, and she hopes to work
seriously at her chosen profes.
sion in Gotham. Fiction will be
her field; she thinks she can
make a go of it if she works hard
enough.
Tennis will be forgotten until
next year, outside of occasional
practice matches. But when
spring comes along again, it'll
be Europe, no! for the champion.
She wants to make clean sweep
of the English, French and
American titles in 1884 if she can.

CITIZENS ASK USE
OF D. c. SURPLUS
Friendship Associations
Resolution Will Be Sent
to- White House.

Appealing for q balanced budget"
for the District, the Friendship Citi-
zens' Association last night at the jan
ney School went on record favoring the
use of surplus District funds in the
Treasury during the next fiscal year.
The matter was brought up by c. D.
Frank delegate to the Federation Of
Citizens Associations, in connection
with his report on the recent fedora
tion action opposed to the budget cut
in the pending appropriation bill. The
resolution of the association will be
forwarded to the President.
Plan Plea at Hearing.
The reduction in the appropriation
for the Public Library, it was reported,
would neceSsitate closing branches in
Tenleytown, Chevy Chase and Woodley,
to the detriment of these communities.
If hearings are held by the Senate
Committee the association will send a
delegate to make a plea on behalf of
the library fund. 1t was pointed out
that the Tenleytown branch receives
use Of its building rent free so long
as 1t Is occupied for library purposes.
In view of this, it was believed some
way might be found to "juggle" the
library funds so that this branch might
remain open.
Carmile Garofalo, chairman of a
committee appointed at the last meet
ing, reported that medical examination
and services, under the District law, are
rendered only to public school children.
An amendment to the law would be re-
quired, he said, to furnish these medi-
cal services to private schools as the
association desired.
VIII List Highway Needs.
Members of the association were
asked to report on all needed highway
improvements so that these needs
might be brought to the attention OF
District authorities before May l in
time for inclusion in the 1934-35 high
way improvement program.
The association also asked for re-
moval or improvement in the special
traffic light at Massachusetts, and Wis
consin avenues so as to relieve the
traffic congestion at the intersection
during the rush hours.

And Fees May Wreck
Fiive-Cen Beer Schooner

The fve-cent glass of beer seems
doomed.
Mounting taxes and costs are
working against the revival Of the
old pre-prohibition l0-ouncc mug
hat retailed to the consumer for
a nickel.
As the Federal Government and
the State government pile their
taxes and license fees up to unheard
of levels the workingman is losing
his opportunity to drown the ted
ium of the day in a foaming beaker
that costs him only the nickel he
can afford.
When beer returns and taxes
and costs are worked out to a
minimum the only possibility for
IA fve-cent glass of beer is to have
it served in a soft drink glass, a six
ounce glass.
The old schooner will not return
unless it will be served in restaur-
ant where the profit is not depend
emit on the beer alone. Beer in such
places will merely be used as an
orchestra is in some restaurants--
to draw the crowds.

ounce glass, which is the size of
the old pre-prohibition mug, tie
cost today considering only the
brewers price of $40 a barrel, a
Federal tax of IS a barrel and a
State tax of 81, is over 4 cents a
glass.
This puts the 1o-ounce mug out
of the rae The six-ounce shell
glass-known as a pony in the old
days-is alone possible.
Beer is produced only in hall

Actions Based
On Separation
Only Two Years Separation Now
Required
Mast Line In State One Year To
Bring SHIT
New Measures More In Harmony
With Laws OF Other States
(By E. W. G.. Hufman)

(By +. W. u. Huttman)
Two new divorce laws have been
passed by the state legislature this
season.
Under the first kw, marriage
dissoultions can be effected upon
two years separation and one
years residence in the state. Here
tofore, five years separation and
two years residence was required.
The second law permits either
party-the aggreived or the I'M
aggrieved-to obtain a divorce
upon W years separation.
Although these laws have just
been passed, several suits have al
ready been instituted in the Row
an county superior court asking
for divorce upon two years separa-
ton and one years residence in
the state.
For years, bills of similar inn
port have been introduced in the
various sessions of the legislature
but have been defeated with de-
finite regularity.
The laws on divorce recently
passed are more in accord with the
laws of a majority of the other
states in America. Some states re-
quire only six weeks separation
and residence, and it is only neces-
sary to set forth frivolous grounds
for the marriage dissolution.
Other causes for absolute divor-
ce in this state, unaffected by any
measures passed this session, are as
follows:
1. If either husband or wife
commits adultery.
2. If either party at the time of
marriage was and still is impot-
ent.
;. If the wife at the time of
marriage is pregnant, and the hus-
band is ignorant of such fact of
pregnancy and is not the father of
the child with which the wife was
pregnant at the time of the mar
riage.
4. Crime against nature.
