He is pictured as a man who

gentleman, always ready to assist

heard Dobie lecture young

suggestions that were invaluable
to men whose teams some day

This Tony 1annarone who will
appear with the colorful and spec
tacular Connecticut Yankees when
they cross duckpins with the Pig'n'
Whistle warriors tomorrow night
at 8 o'clock at Temple, is quite an
artist when it comes to knocking
the wooden bottles down.
He has been on two world
championship teams. He rolled
with the Sokol- Rosebuds of Bridge
port, Conn. when they captured
the coveted honors in 1881, and
bowled with the famed Connect
cut Yankees when they walked off
with the laurels last year.
In 1893, the Italian flash
bowled like a demon to grab the
individual singles championship
Of the State of Connecticut, aver
aging better than 1913.
Iannarone is scheduled to roll
Ollie Pacim in the special singles
match tomorrow night. While
Iannarone is not as colorful as
Nick Tronsky, he is an excellent
singles bowler, possessing a
"never-give-up" spirit which has
gained him followers wherever
he bowls.
Pacini is one Of the finest
head-to-head bowlers in the coun.
try. In fact, he is at his best
when he is rolling in singles COM

Another Connecticut Yankee
who has inscribed his name on

who is in second place IN the Con

RA|NEY PUSHES
SILVER FIGHT
= IN HOUSE
Speaker, ,Stung by Morgenthau
Stand, Says Vote Will
Be Forced Monday
By International News Service

Another split in the Democratic
leadership of the House, which
cracked on the cash bonus, was
threatened today on the silver
issue.
With Speaker Henry T. Rainey
preparing to bring the silver ques-
ton on to the floor Monday, de-
spite opposition of Secretary Of
the Treasury Morgenthau, some
of the other Democratic leaders
indicated they would take up the
Administration battle.
Aroused by Aspersion
The Speaker, who was aroused
by Morgenthau's purported state
ment that an investigation Of sill
yer holdings showed advocates Of
the legislation "were not entirely
disinterested," asserted he would
go through with his plan to per-
NIT the the Dies and FieSinger
bills to be called up for passage
under suspension Of the rules.
Representative Joseph Byrns Of
Tennessee, Democratic leader, in
dicated he would "go along with
the Administration" on the silver
issue, and may oppose both meas
ures at this time.
Feeling Running High
Opposition was also expected
from the House Rules Committee,
which is charged with the duty of
making up the House program.
Feeling was running high
among members of the "silver
bloc" They directed their fire
chiefly at Secretary Morgenthau.
A resolution of Representative
Martin CD of Colorado, demand
ing that he be called before the
House Coinage Committee to dis
close the names Of spectators in
silver was pending.
Speaker Rainey declared:
1--WE will vote on both bills on
Monday"
The Dies bill provides for ex-
change of American farm products
for silver, which would in turn be
used as basis for paper money.
The bill of Representative Fie-
singer CD of Ohio is designed to
link silver with gold and safeguard
the gold standard.
