The nasty man is ole Jupiter

The nasty Scalawag seems to
have taken exceptional pleasure
in turning on the water works
over the past few week-ends just
as We olde Izaak Waltons were
contemplating a twirl or two
among the denizens of the deep.
These tactics have thoroughly
annoyed members of the Ancient
Order of the Worm-dunkers and
some have been so completely riled
that they are putting their equip

The Curb Market gave a good

new high ground on the recovery
movement.
Persistent demand developed
for utility stocks on reports that
the PWA was receding from its
policy of providing municipalities
with funds to build power plants
in competition with privately
owned utilities. If this rumor
was proven to be true, 1t would
constitute that most bulliSh Jews

Duke Power, which is conteSting

a pitcher of high caliber is sure

In fact they won "a games this

Manager Campbell and his players
are confident of winning today's

Here is the list suggested by

Owen D. Young, of New York,

'Tn the last three weeks we

deduction is that labor leaders

"A few responsible citizens are

today after three seamen helped to
safety from the torpedo boat Tomo-
zuru, which capSized yesterday with
113 men aboard, declared eight others
still were alive in the engine room.
The three men rescued, members
of the engine room crew, were able
to walk after they were taken to a
hospital. They were reached through
an air hole drilled through the
stricken ships hull as she lay keel
upward. Milk was handed them to
revive their strength.
Then, while a tremendous cheer
went up from those working grimly
at the rescue, the sailors escaped
through hatch and f1oated to the
surface.
1t had been feared that all aboard
the tiny ship-her tonnage was only

Veterans of Japan's former sea dis
