Rear Admiral Richard E.
Byrd's South Polar ship, Bear,
was snatched from the threat
of imminent disaster on treach-

The distress call was picked
up here by the coastguard cutter
Modoc, which left Immediately
under full steam.
In No Danger
The brief radio message from
the disabled Polar vessel did not
explain the cause of trouble but
said it was unable to effect re-
pairs at sea. =
It gave, however, reassuring
news that the ship, while wallow=
ing heavily in the trough Of the
sea, was in no immediate danger.
The vessel reported its position
as in the vicinity of Frying Pan
Shoals, treacherous graveyard OF
Atlantic coast shipping.
A tug also was dispatched to
the vessels aid to bring it into
port.
A later message said that the
tug was towing the Byrd ship
toward Southport. N. c.

DEBT ENJOYS CO
To BALL CAME
BY International News Service

BY International News service
Sir Ronald Lindsay, the British
Ambassador, and Frederick Leith-
Ross, British economic adviser,
conferred about a half hour with
Undersecretary of the Treasury
Dean Acheson today relative to
the $4,OOO,O0O,0OO British debt to
the United States.
The discussions were confined
to a general survey of the eco
nomic situation. The British
delegates then returned to the
embassy for further discussion
among themselves. No concrete
plan was offered.
The British representatives
planned to attend the world series
game this afternoon.
The Britons approach the debt
problem from the standpoint of a
debtor overburdened with the
weight of existing payments; the
American attitude is that of a
creditor willing to listen to the
debtors plea.
Such being the case, it is up
to the British to make initial pro-
posals. The Americans have none
to offer at the outset at least.
Presumably the negotiations
will concern themselves at the
outset with the matter of $65, ,OO0,-
900 due from last June, and the
$1O4,000.000 due December Is
next, when Congress will not be
meeting.

Washington was at the thresh-
hold of doom, insofar as the cur
rent set of autumnal games was
concerned, and with the Presi-
dent of the United States watch
ing their every tactical gesture,
Joe Cronin'S men were ready to-
day to show WashingtonianS that
the team has not thrown down
the fans.
CrOnin StirS Pep
Cronin had his men around him
in the locker room in last-min-
ute lecture on what was owed the
Washington public and the base
ball world in particular. Said he:
Fellows, we've come out Of
the dOldrumS on other occasions,
and we're coming out Of this
rut into which we have gotten
the last couple of days.
"All we've got to do is to start
Slamming that ball and the
Giants won't know whether
they're in washington or Kala-
mazOO. Now go out there and
hustle and let's show President
Roosevelt and the rest of the
fans that Washington is never
licked, and never raises the
white flag"
To a man, the men seemed
deeply impressed by the boy
managers plea to pull them
selves together and the early
batting practice was followed
through with a vengeance and
a snap that betokened an i'm
mediate turn in the tide of base
ball affairs.
Crowd Arrives Slowly
For instance, OsSie Bluege got
three solid hits in the batting
practice and Dave Harris came
through with several blows that
would have been doubles in this
very park.
The threatening weather kept
the crowd from gathering too
early, but the place was a sell
out insofar as the good seats
were concerned and rain or shine
the first game was assured OF
financial success.
When it started drizzling at
1885, the fans in the left and
center field $3.50 bleachers used
newspapers and souvenir pro,
grams for protection. This was
also true in the uncovered boxes
along both the first and third
base lines.

(I.N.S.).-Three of the six
companies of the Illinois State
Militia, ordered by Governor
Horner to Peabody Mine 43,
to which miners have laid

fore noon.

IS PLEA
Of FANS
Fanfare and Ceremony Mark
PreIiminaries Reminiscent
of 1924 and 1925
By FRANKLIN G.sARTWELL

GRIFFITH STADIUM, Oct.
5. With blood in their eyes,
upwards of $4,000 baseball
fans stormed this ball park this
afternoon, demanding that their
American League champion
Griffmen avenge the indigni-
ties heaped upon them in the
last two days in New York by
the National League Giants.
Blood" was the cry from the
packed stands as the pride Of
Washington took to the field in q
desperate effort to recoup the for
tunes so badly shattered by two
defeats at the Polo Grounds. -
"Repulse 'Em" Is Cry
THE invaders must be repulSed,"
was the verdict of the mob, and
if cheering, screaming and shout
ing could accomplish it they
would be repulsed.
Fans Of high and low degree
mixed in the stadium under the
wand Of love of sport, a great and
powerful magician.
The President Of the United
States, first fan of the national
capital, and party of notables
sat in a box behind the Washing
ton dugout.
But there were no Presidents or
notables, in the ordinary sense.
The only thing that distinguished
them from the thousands Of 9th.
ers was the fact that they had
darn good seats.
Some of the faithful had seats
that weren't so good, while others
had no seats at all, but just stood
on one foot and then another.
Misty Rain Starts
A heavy misty rain started fall.
ing at the ball park about 1880
while the stands were filling UP.
It failed to interfere with the
batting practice of the Giants,
who were on the field, and ap-
parently had little effect upon
the thousands in the stands, al
though those in the exposed left
and cetner field stands huddled
closer together.
After a few moments the sky
frightened slightly but the rain
continued to fall.
Fanfare and Ceremony
All the fanfare and ceremony
with which a sport-loving people
could deck their favorite game
were packed into this mammoth
stadium.
There were a few almost silent
moments while President Roose-
velt took his seat, but they only
emphasized the bedlam which pre-
ceded and followed.
The President was caught be-
tween two fires when it came
to cheering, being, by virtue Of
the vote of the American people
resident of Washington and by
virtue of birth a citizen and fols
lower of the fortunes Of New
York.
But he hurdled the barrier Of
divided allegiance by smiling
alike upon the Nationals and the
Giants whenever either made
an impressive showing.
RemindfuI Of IA and rs
If the President were in doubt
what side he was for no other
fan in the stands was. There
were a few who bravely parade0
