Probably the most interesting
and colorful sandlot game carded
locally Sunday will be that be-
tween the powerful st. Joseph's
Saints and the Pig n Whistle
nine at 3 p. m. on the South
Ellipse. It will be a National City
Baseball League game.
Both teams point proudly to
their excellent records and their
top-notch players.
The Pigs boast Denny sothern,
who played six years in the
majors, in their outfield. Sothern
displayed his wares with Phila-
delphia PhillieS and Pittsburgh
Pirates.
Marcus ChaconaS is another
stalwart on the Pig n Whistle
outfit who has had considerable
experience. He saw service in sew
eral Class D minor leagues, and
he can pitch as well as he can
patrol the outfield.
April Catches
Benny April, who caught for
Newark, Of the International
League for four years, heads the
list of star players on the st.
Joseph team,
Bob Magee is scheduled to go
the firing line for the Saints,
while the Pigs will use either
'Blackie" or "Aggie Adair, who
are brothers. Blackie, the elder,
possesses a tremendous fast ball
and a fine breaking curve. His
brother also has a fast one. but
not quite so fast as Blackie's.
The Heurich Brewers will have
their hands full this weekend.
Saturday they engage the Metro
politan Police nine at 3 p. m. on
the new Heurich field, Wisconsin

NEW YORK, June az u.N.S)
Wall Streets confusion was In
creased by the markets behavior
yesterday. The Treasury ad-
mitted officially that it was ex-
banding the currency through the
enthusiastic" purchase Of silver:
yet the inflationary bait proved q
dud in both commodities and Sc
curities.
Traders were selling stocks be-
cause they acted poorly and
failed to respond to the strength
in the silverS. The question now
is how far the reaction will have
to go to attract new buying in
tereSt.
SO far the talk Of q big cuL In
Midcontinent crude prices Is con-
fined to brokerage house board
rooms.
The industry itself is hopeful
Of holding the price, pointing out
that the situation was more Sc
rious several months ago when
gasoline wars were common
throughout the country The
overproduction Of crude Is ad-
mittedly a sore spot. but some
what Of an offset is provided by
the fact consumption Of petro-
leum products Is currently at rec
ord high levels Brokers lament
the markets dizziness, not realiz-
ing that inactivity ,discourageS
buyers and thus creates q vicious
circle. There viii be plenty Of
outside interest in the market
when it shows something.

though there were . few sales Of fair
amounts at firm prices. trading in the
coarse yarn cloths market today was
not very large.
A stronger tone on the part Of mills
was evident. Largely because business
in the past two sessions has removed
some nearby deliveries from the market
on the quick shipments. Many in the
market Still feel that the list is very
likely to move higher in the next few
weeks and the possibility OF a resump-
considered very good
The cleaning up Of the few weak spots
which had developed was considered
favorable to such development.

DAYTON, O., March 81. (SpeciaD
Enthusiastic over the promise of
exceptional sales volume in the re-
naming months of the year, Frig-
idaire Corporation, subsidiary of
General Motors, today announced
introduction of the most compre-

refrigerators in its history.
Fifteen models make up the 1884
line. according to E. G. Biechler,
president.
Coincident with the unveiling of
the new models on March 81 in
more than 5000 retail outlets from
coast to coast, Biechler said that
the largest advertising campaign
Frigidaire has had in recent years
will be inaugurated in 500 key city
daily newspapers and national mag

Contrary to the current trend
of increasing prices,' Biechler
said, "Frigidaire is establishing the
lowest possible retail selling price,
consistent with maintenance of
quality. Extraordinary sales vol
ume in the last three months has
enabled us to maintain mass pro-

tiful lady with flowers in her hair,
the rabbit gentleman knew that
Spring was only time of year. Just
as poets and makers of music pic
ture Winter as an Old Man with
icicleS in his beard, so Spring is
pictured as beautiful lady with q
sort of bathing suit on.
AS Uncle Wiggily skipped over a
littlebrook he heard it chattering
and singing to itself as it bubbled
over the stones.
"Ha You are as happy as though
you hod seen Spring, Little Brook, =
said the rabbit gentleman.
Spring is here," chartered the
Brook. II did not see her, as she
must have come in the night. But l
can feel that she has been here for
my ice has melted and I am free to
run again"
Good" shouted Uncle Wiggily
and he hoped farther into the
woods. He saw patch of late snow
on some dried leaves and he smell
ed a sweet perfume. Has Spring
been here?" he asked
Yes" whispered the Snow. Il felt
a warm breath and l began to melt.
Spring is here. And if you look be-
meath the leaves you will see what
else Spring has done"
With a stick, Uncle Wiggily
brushed aside the leaves. The sweet
perfume was stronger. Then, nest
led amid the leaves and dried moss,
the rabbit gentleman saw some
beautiful pink and white blossoms.
"Ha the Arbutus!" he exclaimed
THE first flower, SO brave that it
blossoms beneath the snow. Tell me
Arbutus, have you seen SPRING."
YES, she has been here and
touched my blossoms with her warm
pink fingers" said the Arbutus
flowers. Winter has gone and
Spring is here and I am glad"
so am l." said Mr.. Longears

ACTRESS SUED
BY PARENTS

HOLLYWOOD, March 81. UP
A suit of Otto and Helen Lang
hanke. demanding their daughter,
Mary Astor. contribute tC ,heir sup
port. was attacked as unjust today
by the actress.
She characterized as untrue state
ments of her parents that she re-
fused to aid them even though they
were impoverished and threatened
with eviction from then home.
L am simply heartbrOken over
this case Miss Astor said. Il nave
supported my parents since l en-
tered pictures in 1920. Up to three
wears ago my father handled all my
earnings and | was allotted only
fourth of my earnings aiLel liV-
ing expenses Tor all three OF us
were deducted.
Il earned close TO S500000 IN
those years and every cent was
swept aWav Thee wears ago | real
lied we were GONG at rate | could
not afofrd. and pleaded with my
parents to rerencn. They refused
and l moved out, but voluntarily
gave them $1,000 month for a full
year to enable them to readJust
themselves 10 a scale | could afford.
They would not give up the eXpen-
sive estate. and refused nv offer to
set them up IN seyen-room home
near San Francisco.
A recent offer 10 provide them
500 a month was ignored, she said.
The suit estimated the actress
present salary at Sl,500 a week. 1t
was charged that Langhanke sought
but failed to obtain CWA work. The
only aid they obtained from their
daughter was an occasional gro
gerry order, the parents charged.
Miss Astor. whose legal name is
Lucille V. Langhanke, was ordered
to appear April and show cause
why her parents petition should not
be allowed.
