GERMAN MINISTER WELL PROTECTED
 ASLEACUE OPENS
Disarmament to Play Im- portant Part in l4th
 Assembly

Geneva, Sept z5-(UP)-The league of nations met today for it's 14th assembly. Joseph Goebbels, German minister of propaganda, his safety assured by a heavy Nazi guard, prepared to defend his country against attackes and de- mand that Germany be permitted to rearm if her neighbors did not disarm themselves.
 Goebbels arrived by airplane last night. At the airport his bady guard presenter him with an arm full of roses.
 Countering Goebbles was Chan cellor Engelbert Dollfuss of Aus tria, anti-Nazi, who said his frin- cipal concern was to defend Aus tria's position if any one raised John simon, British foreign min ister, to discuss the attitude to bo taken when Goebbls raises the re- armament problem. He was expect ed to confer with Norman II. Da- wis, American disarmament dele gate.
 The assembly met under inaus- picious circumstances. It looked pach VII ~ ytuT VI ulIflOSt unDTOhCIl failures in disarmament efforts tho London economic conference, the Chinese-Japanese dispute and the Bolivian-Uaraguayan war over the Gran Chaco.
 It Is likely that 1t will have to consider during this meeting the alleged oppression of Jews in Ger many, and be forced to confess It's failure to take effective action. Holland, Poland and Czechoslovakia have threatened to raise tho yew- ish problem, and Jews themselves the oppression of mon Ayrians" in the reich.
 Davis was only a visitor. He is hero for the disarmament confer tence, which resumes next month. Like tho assembly, It's problems arc many and It's hopes for accomp- lishment few. Through agreement among tho World was allies on a plan for supervision of armaments, no one believes that the plan will pacif yGermany, which wants to build up military machinen un- less other countries reduce arma- ments.
 Goebbles arrived at the assembly hall with six husky men as guards. Germans in the audience gave him q Nazi salute. Ho and his fellow German delegates were seated next to the Austrians In the front dow.

A platoon of policemen and fire- men, representing the local depart ments. will take part tomorrow afternoon in the state tribute to be paid to the memory of Chief William E. Nevin of the Torring- ton police department, who died suddenly last evening in the Char lotte Hungerford hospital. ~
 Chief Nevin was appointed head of the Torrington department in 1917. He was a native of Sheffield, England. He was well known throughout the state and particu- larly to Superintenrent Joseph H.. Mclean and former Superintend- ent George NJ. Beach of this city. The latter served for several years with the deceased as members of the executiv eboard of the State Police association. ,
 Superintendent Mc1.ean's tribute to Chief Nevin to-day was as fol- lows:
 "Ths death of Chief Nevin of the Torrington police department takes away a friend of long stand ing with me and other members of the Waterbury police department. He was 6 person to whom 1t was a pleasure to be acquainted. A high typo of individual. kind and gentle in his every day life, alert to the duty imposed upon him by the law, n good and willing listen. CT. cultured and refined in his talk. he made what we of the po- lice force call an exceptional man to lead others in tho performance of actual police work. His Judg- mont was of the best, in that he never jumped at conclusions, and his decision in the end was that Of q calm and deliberate mind.
 "Chicf Nevin had q rare way of the treatment of the human indi. vicual. He seemed to know just whet to do at tho proper time. The fact that he was so highly thought of by the men under him proves his real worth as the commanding officer of the department of which

MY SELECTION

With respects to Mir Cooney. The republican candidate. must say and I'm not looney That he has made good to date. What we needed was leader, A gentleman without fear. We have him now, dear reader. Let us to him adhere. He will relate to us. no doubt That the present administration Needs washing and he'll shout That he'll do the operation. He'll tell the voters whats in store In this corrupted city of brass; He promises to tell more and more, To even fade the color on the grass. Dynamic, powerful never weak He'll go everywhere to the ends To explain, to teach and to speak To see the old and make new friends. He'll tell us to use reflection And not to step to one side; That he'll surely sweep the election Like monstrous ocean tide. And if all will come along. As he claims, on election night The party. thousands strong Will surely bring new light. So please. people keep awake Watch the polls make no error Pull the right lever. make no mistake Elect Andy for next mayor. And above all do not resent
 My prediction; it's expected That at least for the present Frank Hayes will be reelected.

fire in the exhibition games.
The latest example of this was
given by none other than Earl
Whitehill, that crafty left-hander
secured from the Detroit Tigers
during the winter in exchange for
Fred Marberry, in his six-inning
performance against the Boston
Braves the other day.
Whitehill's efforts were charac-
teristic of what every veteran
moundsmen has accomplished in
his training work this spring, and
Earl'S particular performance pic
tured how surely he's going to be
that powerful aid to the Griffs
once the regular season opens and
the important games begin.
Looked Right"
Whitehill, to talk about him a
little more, was ease perSonified

local debut against the Boston
Braves.
In fact, his work was his best
Of the spring campaign, and be
cause of his efforts the general
thought waited through the
atmosphere that once again the
Griffs had in their midst a
pitcher who promised to "cap.
tain" the mound staff because of
his color and mean ability.
One Of the bright bits about
WhitehilPs work this spring has
been his excellent mental atti'
tude. Seemingly tickled to death
over being with the Griffmen,
he's been a bundle Of vim and
vigor ever since the first day at
training camp and right now
considers himself in the best
shape of his long career.
Big Season Seen
Whitehill won 16 games while
losing 13 for a second division
Detroit club last year. Able to
turn in this many triumps with
team Of that type in 1882, Earl
should travel at a much faster
clip this season with the ''nev'
deal" Griffmen.
At any rate Whitehill's spirit,
pep and acknowledged ability will
help him reach new goal,
which way back in his mind,
he's been hoping for all this
spring. A great addition, this
Whitehill guy, and an addition
who'll make most every fan for
get Fred Marberry, who had to
be sacrificed for the new left

A Fortune in Treats

It must have cost the old
gentleman a fortune in treats
during Joe's brief career on
the mound. There was a bowl
ing alley in the rear, and the
boys would quaff and bowl, and
then bowl and quaff.
Then, when mine host Herr
Engel felt particularly enthu-
siaStic about his boy Joe, he
would toss a "hasenpfeffer."
otherwise picked rabbit, for
the patrons. This would be an
extraordinary occasion indeed
and cause for great rejoicing.
From far and near the clans
came trooping in and when in
full blast, these "hasenpfef-
ferS" would make the welkin
ring.
But an end had to come to
all things, even the "hasenpfef-
fers." Along about 1915 and by
the time "It's a Long Way to
Tipperary" got back to these
shores, Bud Counahan, a New
York cartoonist, became so for
getful at one Of Herr Engeps
'haSenpfeffers," as to start
leading the throng in singing OF
that great war song, and that
was more than even the genial
Herr Engel could stand.

RETURN 60

Today Billy Landers is right
back at the top of the heap. He
has been signed to meet Leroy
Dougan by Matchmaker Frank
Mann in Tuesday nights windup
at Portner's Arena.
This match was fought just two
weeks ago as a semifinal at the
Alexandria punchmill. Dougan
got the decision, but the fans
raised such a howl about the
whole thing that there was moth
ing left for Prof. Mann to do but
bring them back.
The distance will be eight
rounds this time instead of six.
Many thought Landers would have
steamed in ahead of Dougan the
last time had the route been
eight bells.

who knocked him out recently.

Kahoe's Old Haunts

We can visualize now Mike
Kahoe, the former Washington
scout, who, when pausing in
Washington for instructions
from the then club owners,
the MeSsrs. Noyes, Rapley,
Minor and a few others, ever
made his headquarters down
on E Street, between Thirteenth
and Fourteenth, which location
was variously known as news
paper row and rum row. Out
side of one theater and a re-
membrance shop, the newspa-
per and rum industry occupied
practically the entire block.
There must have been seven
or eight places in that one
brief street,. where the thirst
could be quo .ched with about
anything the mind could con-
tur-so perhaps it is no won
der that a young reporter of
that era became caught in the
swirl Of sawdust, bottles, bev-
erages. and bars.
There was a saying along
about that time that one Of
the perquisit Of becoming a
good reporter, more particularly
a sports reporter, was ability to
sop it up. Later, perhaps too
late, we learned to take no
stock in the quaint old idiom,
but only after giving it as
thorough a test as a willing ap-
petite and small salary would
permit.

Gay Old Engel's

Probably, leastwise from
sportive standpoint, as gay a
gathering place as any of
those good old days was what
was known as Engel's Buffet,
sponsored by the progenitor of
Joe Engel, former Washington
pitcher and present head of
the Chattanooga baseball club.
No prouder parent of a pro-
fessional ball pitcher ever lived
than the elder Engel, whose
hospitality at all times was un.
bounded, but who went to
ltmitless ends to show his So
ciability, say nothing Of fond
ness, for all and sundry who
would chance to drop in on the
evening following a successful
effort Of Joe's on the mound.
''My pOy ChOe," he would
say, win q game today, chem
