BLUE FLAMES
TOBE MET IN
LOOP TILT
BY SID KATZNELL

With the International Union
Printers baseball crown safely
tucked under their belts, the local
Union Printers, under the leader
ship of Gen. "Heinie" Webb, will
commence a well-directed cam
paign on Sunday to annex the
second half championship of Sec
ton B of the National City
League.
They cross bats with the league
leading Blue Flame Valet Shop
on the South Ellipse at 3 p. m.
in the feature game of the day.
The meat Appearance" boys have
copied four contests and lost
nary a one, while the "Typeset-
tiers" have won two and dropped
none.
Not Idle
Despite the fact Indictment
weather has forced the Printers
to remain indoors this week, they
have not been entirely idle. They
have listened to Webb lecture
about the ms and outs of Sandlot
baseball and have worked out Spe-
Cial plays which they believe will
give opposing teams considerable
trouble.
In all probability the Valet nine
will send the veteran Pete In
gram to the mound, while Webb
is undecided as to who he will
pitch.
Should Ingram be right Sun
day, the Printers will be in for a
sweet afternoon because Pete used
to be one of the finest pitchers
on the local sandlots when he
hurled for Naval Hospital couple
of years ago.
Another game that should offer
thrills and spills Sunday is that
between the Warwicks and Blue
Goals on the East Ellipse at 3
o'clock. The youthful Warwick
aggregation is the most improved
team in the league.

chunk of slippery elm, and
his battered derby hat and goes
peddling himself from town to
town until he finds another
haven, however brief.
So it was not surprising to
SEQ that he had turned up
again in Pittsburgh Tuesday.
What was surprising, and what
earns his case a listing in the
goofy league, was that in his
first chore as a Pirate, he
should outpitch Carl Hubbell
and upset the worlds cham
pion Giants.
"Pie," Traynor went right
down to the bottom of the
pickle vat to get him, but there
he was, chesty and confident
as ever, proving that he still
was a big-league pitcher even
though nobody on earth save
Burleigh Grimes himself be-
lieves it. You must admire
his relentless determination and
grim refusal to quit or drift
back to the minor leagues.
On the Same Day
On the same day that Bur
leigh was backing the Giants
into a corner so the Pirates
could bind and gag them, the
veteran Alvin Crowder was do
ing all right in the stadium
against Ell Goofy Gomez.
Now they had come so close to
waving Crowder out of the
American League a couple OF .
weeks before that it wasn't
funny.
But Dizzy" Dean still tops the
goodness league. He has now
taken part in two personally con-
Quoted strikes in which his kid
brother has been the only other
participant, and even as this is
written ne is Sulklng III MS Cell3
in st. Louis while the Cardinals
try to struggle along without
him.
AS for the kid brother, Paul,
he seems to have been reduced
to the role of stooge. Where
"Diz" goes, "Daz" goes whether
he wants to or not. He appar-
emily is in a fair way of becom-
ing the greatest yes-man on rec
ord. But the current strike will
not last long.
AS Mrs. Dizzy" Dean herself
so pertinently pointed out, the
Deans must eat. Even so, it will
be hard to wrest the goofy
league pennant form Jerome. He's
tops even among the squirrels.

"Dizzy" Leads National
In Pitching and GOOfy
League In All Dep'tS
By BILL CORUM

NEW YORK, Aug. II.
Jerome H. Dizzy Dean is not
only cutting out a dizzy pace for
the National League pitchers,
but also leading the baseball
goofy league in all departments.
This has been, I am con-
WINGED, the dizziest baseball sea-
son in 20 years. There have
been mysterious disappearance,
strikes, fist fights, walkouts,
lockouts, near riots, high record
crowds, low record crowds; in
short, just about everything you
can think of. And through it all
the Dizzy Dean freres Of that
torrid st. Louis have held their
place at the top.
Over in Brooklyn a silent and
slightly mysterious young man
disappeared from the Robins
and his usual haunts for week,
and about the time they were
getting ready to drag the Co.
wanus for his body, he sudden
" reappeared to announce that
he was just taking his sum
mer vacation"
This was a new one on We
scribe. The young men OF the
ivory wars having all winter to
vacation to their hearts desire,
I had been fooled into believing
that would be enough leisure
time. Six months on. Six months
off, It seemed fair and even lib
eral. But in Brooklyn they have
their own ideas.
Returns to Chores
When the young man did, in
his own good time, return to his
chores, the natural expectation
was that he would be fined or,
at least, reprimanded.
But no, what does Manager
Stengel do but throw his arms
around the returning vacation

back of his neck and kiss him
on both cheeks.

AIR MAIL BILL
BEFORE HOUSE
Authority of Farley Cut by
Committee, Action
Due Soon.
By United Press

By United Press
WASHINGTON, Feb. II. - The
house postoffice and post roads COM
mittee reported out the emergency
air mail bill today, eliminating from
the measure provisions authorizing
Postmaster General James A. Far
ley to make contracts with private
companies.
The measure as reported out also
carried a proviso limiting army plane
use for mail carriage to one year.
Chairman James M. Mead Dem.
Tex said it was hoped to have
house action on the bill next week,
after the tax bill is passed.
Opposition by many members of
the committee to the bills original
provisions giving Postmaster-Gen-
eral Farley power to make con-
tracts for a temporary period with
out advertising for bids resulted in
those sections being stricken out.
The bill authorizes use of army
equipment for mail carrying and
provides for payment of the war
department for mail flying costs.
1t was brought out during hear
ings that the postoffice department
was willing to have the contract
provisions eliminated.

WooIIen Praises Plan

Pressing need of long term credit
was pointed out today by Evans
Woollen, president Of the Fletcher
Trust Company, in commenting on
President Roosevelt's proposed credit
plans.
In considering any plan Wash
ington may make for loosening
credit, it should be borne in mind
that business is dependent on two
very different kinds of credit-long
term credit or capital expenditures
and short term credit for current
operating expenditures.
1t is the former kind that now
is very much needed. Banks, if
soundly conducted, extend only the
latter kind for the reason that
their liability, being payable on de-
mand, their assets must be liquid;
must be short and not long-term.
The banks of the country, by and
large, have abundant resources
available for short term lending,
and, in self-interest. are eager for
such loans. On the other hand,
normal sources of long-term credit
are not now available. That is the
problem for the solution of which
Washington seems to be seeking q
plan"
Arthur v. Brown, president Of
the Union Trust Company, viewed
with approval the plans under way
in Washington.
ANY step to aid industry to bors
row money is sure to be beneficial
Mr.. Brown said.

FOLLOWED, Louisville and st.
l. Louis. During the trip, Dick
ems made his acquaintance with
an Indian chief, the Kentucky
people and the Mississippi. A
short way into the prairie" from
st. Louis, I'VE halted at a place
called Bellevue" Dickens said,
and there we met a DR.. Crocus,
who astounded the genteel Eng
lishman by announcing he had
no intention of ever returning to
the "Old Country" Mr.. Dickens
just couldn't comprehend this.
From st. Louis-the western
limit of his journey, Dickens re-
turned to Cincinnati, Columbus,
Sandusky and Cleveland, and
there boarded a boat which car
ried him to Niagara Falls. Nj
agara brought this from his
startled lips: Il could see an i'm
mense torrent Of water tearing
headlong down from some great
height, but had no idea of shape,
or situation, or anything but
vague immensely" From Niagara,
Dickens took brief jaunt into
Canada, then back to New York
and boarded ship, late in June,
for England.
The Indianapolis times., 1934-02-17

The QuaintneSs and crudeneSs of
the mountain folk of Pennsylvania
first amused, then irritated Dick
ems sense Of refinement.
In Pittsburgh, Dickens remained
three days-March 30, 81 and
April /, 1912. His sensibilities
shaken by the trip over the noun
tains, Pittsburgh did not stir Mr..
Dickens esthetic senses. Of it, he
says, 1T certainly has a great
quantity of smoke hanging about
it, and is famous for its iron
works"
Cincinnati was next, and little
better, in Mr.. Dickens eye. Per-
haps the voyage down the Ale
gheny in a steam boat had lulled
him back to an appreciation of
the country's scenic values. Any
way, he characterized Cincinnati
as "a beautiful city; cheerful,
thriving and animated" At Gin
cinnati there was a temperance
convention in progress, and the
author got quite kick out Of the
parade in which, THE banners
were very well painted, and
Haunted down the street IA
mously."
The Indianapolis times., 1934-02-17

Lowell, Mass, visited just after
Boston, proved equally satisfac-
tory. Dickens was much i'm
pressed by the workingmen's and
women's condition there, and re-
marked with surprise the pres
ence of Joint stock pianos in
many of the boarding houses.
IRON Worcester, the itinerary
l. of the writer and his wife
followed along the Connecticut
river through Hartford, then to
New Haven and then to New
York. 1t was leisurely trip and
the couple spent four days in the
town of Hartford, where they saw
recorded impressions Of the "fa-
nous oak in which the charter of
King Charles was hidden"
New York, too, was not so bad.
"Was there ever such a sunny
street as this Broadway" he asks,

HILTON CROUCH
SENTENCED TO
TWENTY YEARS
Pleads Guilty to Charge of
Robbing Massachusetts
Avenue Bank.
KISSES AGED MOTHER
Alleged Pal of DiIIinger
Appears UnWorried
in Court.

Nattily dressed in a dark blue suit
and tie, Hilton U. Crouch, alleged
member of the Dillinger terror
mob" and former dirt track race
driver, was sentenced. to twenty
years in state prison today by Judge
Frank P. Baker in criminal court.
Pleading guilty to charges of rob-
berry in connection with the holdup
of the Massachusetts Avenue State
bank last September, Crouch ap-
peared unworried in court today.
AS he left, under heavy guard, he
stopped to kiss his aged mother,
Mrs. Mary Crouch, who cried
throuhgout the brief proceedings.
Herbert E. Wilson, Marion county
prosecutor, told Judge Baker that
ne had made an agreement with
Miss BeSs Robbins, Crouch's attor-
ney, to demand only the twenty
year penalty, if the alleged bandit
agreed to plead guilty.
Crouch, whose notorious career as
holdup man terminated recently
with his arrest in Chicago, is alleged
by police to have driven the stick
up car in the robbery of the MaSsa-
chusetts avenue bank when John
Dillinger and two other men are
alleged to have stolen $4,000.
Crouch was sentenced to term
of eighteen months in the Illinois
state prison for alleged participation
in Chicago holdup. On being re-
leased in 1927, he Immediately was
rearrested for the robbery of the
Motor Company in In
dianapolis.
Sentenced to the Indiana state
prison on a charge of auto banditry
for a term of five to twenty-five
years Crouch was later released and
was alleged to have associated him
self with the Dillinger gang.

wife, Kate, and his omnipresent,
delicately poisonous pen, de-
barked and settled down to life
in New England for brief period.
Boston, all in all, was not so
bad 1t was still civilization,
much as Dickens had known it
in England. 1t was not until the
young novelist set off for the
great west"-PittSburgh, Cincin-
natl, and such frontier towns
that he began to encounter those
elements which left him with the
permanent bad taste set forth in
American Notes" and Martin
ChuzZlewit."
OF Boston, he said, THE city is
a beautiful one, and can not fail.
I should imagine, to impress all
strangers very favourabiy. The
private dwelling houses are for
the most part large and elegant;
the shops extremely good. and
the public buildings handsome"
He recorded the Bostonians as
genteel and hoSpitable. Much,
indeed, like the English. He was
particularly impressed by a young
blind girl named Laura Bridg-
man, an early Helen Kellar.

Members of the Democratic state

The set of rules included pro-
