HE|NE HITS
SAFELY IN
32GAMES
By GARRETT WATERS

DETROIT, Aug. 25.-There's no
doubt about it, this Heine Manush
person is certainly playing the
game of his life for the pennant
aspiring Griffmen.
Maybe it's because the GriffS
have a grand chance of coping
the old gonfalon; then again may.
be it's because he's struck stride
that's hard to stop. Whatever 1t
is, he is establishing one of the
most remarkable hitting records
since the days of George Sisler, of
the st. Louis Browns. who created
the major mark of AZ straight.
Heine, up to today, has hit
safely at least once in his last 80
games. Besides this, he's placed
himself among the big five" Of
the league again. In fact, promises
to finish within this group, if not
lead it by the time October rolls
around.
LAX ADOuC GreaL Work
All the Griffmen are talking
about Man, IS great work at bat
today. They call him one of the
greatest batters the game has ever
seen and go so far as to predict
that he'll be classed as one of the
real greats" in baseball's hall of
fame. Every member of the team
is pulling for him to keep up his
great work.
Besides holding his new record
of having hit safely at least once
in his last games, Heine has a
batting average of .343 today. OF
course his current streak has
helped him attain this high mark,
but his surefire determination to
deliver for the team, regardless OF
records, has been predoninated.
This was illustrated in Tues
days opener of the current series
with the Detroit Tigers, which
the Tigers later won, 10 to 8 on
Hank Greenberg's home run over
the left field wall.
ManuSh Starts Rally
There was one out and GoSlln
on first base in the seventh inning
when Heine stepped to bat. The
Griffs were 4 to 2 behind at the
moment with only a rally needed
to get them back into the run
ming again. Manush came through
with a timely double to left
which scored Goslin from first
and opened up a rally which
found the Griffs going one run
ahead. This base hit was
Manush's second of the contest.
his first coming in the first inning
after Myer and Goslin had beer
retired.
Incidents like the above have
studded the veterans career as a
Griffman. it seems. And they
promise to keep following him as
long as he is active out there on
the diamond, and particularly
during the present campaign
which finds the Griffs on tho
Threshold of their first pennant
since those palmy days of 1924
and 1925.
Here's a tabulated record of
Manush's work since he began on
this latest hitting streak, July %.
His first. during May and June,
went to 26 games, y'know, and
was quite a streak at that. But
here's this one.

 It has become evident that the Mutual Aid will still have enough cases to keep it functioning busily. A number have been laid off at lo- cal factories in the past few weeks and they are applying for help at the Mutual Aid. Since they cannot begin work with the CWA for some time and since many are in actual need it will be necessary for the Mutual Aid to start new projects of it's own to give them employ ment. The projects which will be entirely separate from CWA, will be decided on by Mir Harris within few days.
 It was brought out at the meet ing in Hartford that assignment of further CWA jobs will be by quali- fication only. Need will not be considered, as the organizations s main purpose is to avoid any re- semblance to charity. It is not be- lieved. however. that the rule is

If all of the projects suggested for completion under the new pub- lie aid civil works program are ap- proved Waterville should benefit to a great extent. Already approval has been requested for the con- struction of storm water sewers to Cooke and Colonial avenues and these are practically assured. A sim- liar piece of work in Dwight street is under consideration as well as the completion of the proposed lay out and grades of Dwight street and Huntingdon avenue. It is also possible that other Fairmount streets may receive similar con- sideration.
 A request has also been made that the board of park commission CTS consider the laying of a side walk in Boyden street through the park area, from Thomaston avenue to the railroad and installation of drinking fountain facilities in the vicinity of the park playground and athletic field.

 Wool inquiries were more numer- ous and some business Is mater falizing, it was reported, while firm- CT hide prices have stimulated more interest in leather.
 Colder weather over a large area has stimulated the call for winter goods" the review said, 'sand the improvement in retail trade is reflected in the piece goods market which, in turn, has given the woolen mills a better outlook and resulted in much more inquiry for supplies.
 "The market for woolen and wor- sted yarns is firm and more inc terest is being shown in the offer fngs of the spinners. Although there has been a slight shrinkage in the activity in the manufactur- ing of women's clothing, operations in that line still are ahead of the 1925-1927 period. Mems clothing is going strong.
 silk and rayon manufacturers are db lSb Der CCAty WAAAfo 0yG1nS and finishing textiles and leather are at about the same level as the 1925-1927 average. The prices of cotton cloths continue firm, but there has been some let-down in the active purchasing noted in the latter part of last week. Soles of cotton yarn have been light, but somewhat more interest is reported. Some manufacturing is rather slow.
 "New building contracts award ed in New England during the past week showed an increase over the week previous, with 8 fairly good gain, when compared with the cor responding week of last year.
 Prior to the new prices fixed by the code, heavy sales of spruce and other lumber were reported. The New England mills still continue quite busy, with local yards, how ever, reporting very few sales. There is not much activity in brick, lime and cement.
