Rene Schools of the blazing $18,-

attempt to board the flaming hull
and raise the French flag over the
charred ruins.
Captain Schools obtained permits
sion to attempt to take official pos

salvagers from attempting to raise
the ship if it sinks in the channel
The captain left here in the tug
Rainier, accompanied by three officers
and ten seamen, all volunteers on
the dangerous undertaking.
The Atlantique, driven across the
channel by heavy wind, was drift
ing toward Southampton. 1t was
sighted from the shore at Portland

Eight tugs pursued the drifting
ship all night. They we're unable
to do anything to check the fire
The tugs approached SO close that

officials of the Compagnie Sud
Atlantique announced that nine

crew were missing. 1t was indi-
Gated that the ship possibly would

Blaine said no formal vote was
taken on the repeal resolution, but
that he considered the committee S
action as "a favorable report for
repeal"
Qualified repeal in the form ap-
proved by the subcommittee is be-
lieYed to have more senate support
than the pending 80 per cent beer
bill. But the necessity Of a two

senate approval.

would not obstruct consideration of
the repeater

modification of the eighteenth
amendment and opposes repeal, but
has promised that the repeater will
be handled expeditiously in his COM

composed of Senators Blaine Rep.,

William Borah CRep., Idaho), G. c.

The subcommittee was unan-
imous in approving submission OF
the repeal resolution to the full
committee. but there were reserva-
lions by Blaine and Senator William
E. Borah as to their final action on
the resolution.
Borah reserved the right to OPP

Blaine said he would move either
in the full committee or on the SEN
ate floor to eliminate the section
prohibiting the saloon.
1t was learned that there may be
a Democratic move to substitute
state conventions for legislatures in
ratification of repeal. Both Repub-
lican and Democratic platforms
stipulated conventions.
Committee members took into

Harry G. Leslie, retiring Repub-

Of his governmental policies upon
an overwhelmingly Democratic sew

met in opening session today.
Congratulating the new state ad-

Leslie advised the legislators to
stress economy and follow the paths
he marked out during the last four
years. so that Indiana will weather

The Governors message was one
Of hail and farewell. 1t carried out
the constitutional mandate requir-
ing the retiring chief executive to
report on the condition of state
affairs.
On Tuesday a similar joint Ses-
sion in the house will hear a mes
sage from Governor Paul V. McNutt.
voices Pride IN record
While Leslie's message dealt with
his administration during the last
four years, McNutt's address will
deal with the future.
For the first time since 1913 the
entire state government is now in
Democratic hands. Overwhelming
Democratic majorities prevail in
both the upper and lower house.
We take i'l-y pride in the record
Of the las, four years. Indiana
faces economic difficulties growing
out of the prolonged depression with
a clean slate and with a balance
of SIT 1852, 27765 in the state treas
ury. The healthful condition OF
our state finances gives good cause
for general felicitation. We are in
a position TO look hopefully to the
future" Leslie said.
Hopeful for Future
With continued careful man
agement, sound and constructive
policies, persistent enforcement of
economy in government, wise en-
ployment of the budget principle;
consistent application Of business
methods in the purchase of supplies
for our state departments and in
situations; continuance unimpaired
of the states productive agencies,
and courageous adherence to the
principles of drastic retrenchment
all along the line, in accord with the
economic emergency which compels
government as well as private bust
ness, public official as, we'll as or
binary citizen, to curtail all but the
essential activities and to forego

storm and work out her own saliva

Adjustment of the $3.50 property

revenues, was urged, with the ad-
vice that good features of the law
should be preserved"

The people of Indiana do not
ask for destructive measures. Econo-

they also demand constructive COM

measure of tuning up for the
regular games beginning April IL.
The best part of the Griffs'
work of late has been their heavy
batting in particular innings. Last
Saturday against the Atlanta
Crackers at Atlanta, for example,
five hits in the eleventh frame
scored six runs and 11-to-5 tri4
umph. Against the Lookouts on
Sunday, six bingles counted 5
runs in the third inning and put
the game safely away, while yes
terday against the same LookoutS
six hits were collected in the Sec
ond inning which counted 8 runs
these markers proving a great
aid in winning another Of those
free-hitting games.
Goose Goslin was the big-timer
in yesterdays heavy attack. In
that second inning when those
eight runs were scored, the vet
eran rightfielder of the Griffs
hammered out a double and triple
on two successive trips to the
plate, and both bingles drove
across runs that meant something.
The GriffS won the game, Is to
9, when a final check-up was
made. A cold rain and a driving
wind made play unusually loose,
but the Griffs' great hitting kept
affairs humming throughout and
offset the "just fair pitching
turned in by General Alvin Crow
der and Eddie Linke.
CrOwder COaSted
Crowder travelled through the
first four innings and literally
coasted along because of his big
lead. The Lockouts took advan-
tage of the veterans let-up in
form and scored four runs in the
third. Against Linke they counted
five more times during the next
five frames, but that Griff lead
always proved too much of a
handicap to overcome.
One Of the features from a
Chattanooga standpoint was the
hitting of Johnny Gill, former
Griff. This lad socked out four
hits in five times at bat to lead
his mates. Bill Andrus, another
youngster who had a trial with
the Griffs a couple of years ago,
co-starred with Gill by hitting
two triples and a double in five
trips to the pan.
Kuhel, with a double, and
Boken, with a triple, we're the
other Griffs besides Goslin to
enter the extra-base class during
the contest.
