IN OTHER WORDS, PLEASE
REMIT

The rose is red. the violet blue,
This little bill is overdue.
So pay It now-don't wait till when
The rose and violet bloom again;
For If you do delay 1t thus
No violet will bloom for us.
Unless you pay, the rose will rest
Upon a fair and manly chest;
The birds will sing but what Of that :?
We will not hear where we are at
So come across, we need the dough.
Not in the spring, but now. you
know.
The rose Is red, the violet blue
DO VIC need cash? I'LL SAY WE DO!

The Waterbury Democrat., 1934-07-02

The five-cent series means you can reach either Yankee stadium or the Polo grounds on a subway. The Yankees, boosting their lead in the American league to a game and half-the most they have en- joyed since they wilted in the west are quoted by Jack Doyle, Broad way betting commissioner, at 7-5 odds to cop the pennant. The same exchange prevails on the Giants, leader in the National.
 Broaca Again
 The Ruppert Rifles seem to have all cylinders barking again. Yes terday young Johnny Broaca, Yale's latest gift to baseball, clean ed up the series in Washington, 5-2. It was his third victory In four tries, and it gives the Tanks four able throwing men-Gomez, Ruff ing, Murphy and Broaca-bowling at a 700 clip or better.
 The only other club where you will find that many top flight throwers is the Giants, where Hub- bell, Schumacher, Luque and Bow man are all throwing at 1000 or better.
 MT Doyle, who makes living out of such things, lists Detroit at 2-1, Washington at Al and Boston at 6-1 behind the Tanks, while in the Neational he will take money at 9-5 Of St Louis, 2-1 on Chicago and S-1 on the Pirates.
 Schumacher Victor
 Yesterday the Giants justified Doyle's optimism by belting out the Brooklyn Dodgers, 5-4, with two home runs. The first, by Travis Jackson, scored two ahead in the sixth; the second by Lefty O'Doul, chased one home in the seventh. Schumacher got the win.
 St Louis held the pace in @ long winded duel with the Cincinnati Reds. Dizzy Dean elbowed IT in- nings against Tony Freitas of the Reds, then gave out. Jim Lindsay went on to win, S-6, in the 18th, but Dean got the game. The night cap was called, 2-2, in the fifth due to darkness.
 Thevenow Comes Through
 Tommy Thevenow, of Pittsburg, snapped the Chicago Cubs eight game streak, smacking a double in the ninth to score bith Waners and win for the Pirates, 5-4.
 The Boston Braves got two against Philadelphia, 6-3, in the first and 30 shutout, engineered by young Bobby Brown of Albany, in the nightcap. This boosted the Braves into fourth place.
 Tanks Gain
 Detroit lost a half game to the Tanks, splitting with St Louis. They dropped the first game, 3-2, but blasted three Brown tos1ers with 15 hits, including doubles by Ro-- gell, Cochrane, Goslin and School Boy Rowe, the pitcher, to win the second game, 12-3.
 Benton of the Athletics pitched three hitless innings against Bos- ton; then the Red Sox leaped on him for six runs, chased him away in the fourth and won, 10-3, mov- ing to third place.
 Indians Split
 Cleveland stayed in fourth place, a point ahead of the Senators. by splitting a brace with Chicago. In the first, the White Sox attacked Monte Pearson for eight runs in the second inning and won, 12-5. The Indians won the second game when Willie Kamm singled in the 11th with the bases loaded, winning, 4-3.

Good Pitching, Heavy Hit ting in Valley League
 -HOpeville Loses

Holding the first series leaders, Waterville's Metros in check with some nifty twirling, Al Jarlett, the Holy Cross collegian and his Wa tertown mates won a 5-I game in the Naugatuck Valley league yes- terday, to start the second series in the circuit. Thomaston Kaceys beat Hopeville Indies in Waterbury ' to 5; Litchfield won from Beth lehem by an 1894 count while the Terryville team set back the Oak vile Davies 7-1.
 Unexpected
 The defeat of the Watervillians by so decisive a margin was the league surprise of the day, for while Watertown got only two more hits than the five allowed the losers they made good use of them for a five-run total. Zap pone's hitting, three times out of four, one a two- -bagger, combined with Jarlett's pitching was among the best individual play of the af- ternoon.

When the club descends in the chip shot, the path of the club head must be fiattened as il reaches the bottom of the arc. IL should finish near the ground, having travelled from impact al- most horizontally instead of abruptly upward.
 The incorrect swing, in which the wrists only are used, results in a sharp ascent of the club, caused by a stationary left arm. This forces the hands and wrists to break abruptly,

Hat bands play an important part in trout fishing, and making the rounds of several streams this spring we found several clever ang- lers with original ideas.
 Bands have been in use as a convenient place in which to stick flies since the dark ages, but there has been one objection once the barb of the fly was in- serted in the band, the angler ruined his whole day getting 1t out.

old former President, today
accepted the premiership of
France in a conference with
President Albert Lebrun at

cheering crowd of thousands
outside hailed him as the

Intent on forming a national
union (coalition) government as
the only possible means of saving
France in her present bloody

Meanwhile, the Chamber of

Cosden, whose father is prom

4 p. m. yesterday, when he left
the Hotel Crillon. At that hour
fierce mob fighting broke out in
the Place de Ia Concorde, on
which the hotel is situated.
The immense popularity of the

RULING ENDS 23
LIQUOR CASES

In a far reaching decision, JUS
tice. Daniel w. O'Donoghue, of
District Supreme Court, today
held a section of the new District
liquor law imperative and decSed
the old prohibition Jaw was re-
pealed for the District of Colum-
bit as we'll as the States when the
Twenty-first amendment was rat
flied.
The ruling was made in the case
of United States against William
Dietz and Harry Talbot. The
Government had petitioned pad
lock injunctions against Dietz'
establishment in the 400 block
Eleventh st. N. w. and Talbott's
premises in the 200 block Seventh
st. S. E.
Assistant United States Attor-
ney John Wilson opposed mo-
tion to dismiss the cases, which
was pressed by Attorneys William
B. O'Connell and Harry T..
Whelan, on the ground that a saw
ingS clause in the new liquor law
permitted prosecutions of cases in
Stituted under the national pro
hibition law.
Justice O'Donoghue, ruling
along the lines of a United States
Supreme Court decision handed
down Monday, held the savings
clause imperative. He declared
the prohibition law and all kin
dred statutes we're repealed for
the District with the rest Of the
country last December 5.
The basis of the motion to dis
miss the injunction cases was that
the law under which the proceed
ingS were instituted had been re-
pealed. AS a result Of this deci-
sion and the Supreme Court rul-
ing, it is virtually assured that %
liquor cases now pending in the
Police Court and District Supreme
Court viii be dropped.
