New York Nationals
Defeat Legion Team
Very Good Exhibition - Nego-
tiations Being Made With Other
Fast and Clever Teams

Tuesday evening, the American
Legion basketball team were hosts
to the New York Nationals, a trav-
cling team that is playing some of
the best teams in this state and
many others outside. -
These players make it their bus
mess to know what to do with that
pig skin in fact it is their pro-
fession. They get their bread and
butter by passing that ball, and
they don't say please, and thank
you either. The Nationals present
ed a nice job of passing and hand
ling the ball but. their shooting or
floor game was nothing sensation
al.
They gave the local fans a good
game at least those that were in
terested enough to come out and
see them. = i~iA
Possibly their last quarter exhi-
bition might have been more inter-
esting if the boys had not out
smarted them by playing their
style of slow breaking ball with
them for the first three quarters,
which of course enabled the LIE
gionaires to put on more speed in
the final stanza and check that last
ten minute rally which the New
Workers usually depend upon, to
send the fans home with something
to talk about.
The local boys gave good &C
count of themselves and proved

DEAD ON
INDIANAPOLIS
RACE TRACK

INDIANAPOLIS, May Is. W.H -
A driver and his mechanic were
killed today when their automobile
crashed into the wall during a test
run at the indianapolis motor
speedway.
The dead were Peter Kreis, Knox
vile. Tenn, and his mechanic,
Robert Hahn.
Hahn was from Chino, Calf.
The crash came during warmup
run preparatory to qualifying
test for the annual Memorial day
5OO-mile race but it was as spectac-
ular as any in the classic itself.
Kreis' car cleared the three-foot
retaining wall, struck a tree and
was cut in two.
The car was in the middle of the
short cut straightaway when the
accident occurred.
1t was uncertain what caused the
accident and the speed that the
front wheel drive Miller eight was
making at the time could be judged
only by the violence of the crash.
The car was entered in the race by
Harry Hartz.
The accident was the second Of
the year at the speedway but was
the first in which anyone was killed
or injured. Deacon Litz, Dubois,
Fa., hit the wall last weekend
while attempting to qualify but es-
capped unhurt.

RELIEF PLANS
OUTLINED BY
FEDERAL HEAD
Care For Aged, Widowed, Un-
employed And Ill Declared To
Be Essential Policy.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, May 2s. QU.P)
"A detailed plan for the care of the
aged, widowed, unemployed and the
i'll was laid before the National Wei
fare association last night by Har-
ry L. Hopkins, national relief ad-
ministrator. 1t was generally believ-
ed Hopkins expressed the views of
the federal administrator.
Hopkins outlined a four point
plan to provide security for all. In
concluding he answered those who
demand to know If the federal ad-
ministration's relief program is
heading toward Socialism. It is not,
he said in effect.
These suggestions do not imply
a reorganization of industry so such
ills will not happen" Hopkins said
1--WE do not even know that indus
try can be reorganized to prevent
such ills. We simply must recognize
these conditions and be prepared to
take care of them.'
Hopkins said security safeguards
should not be operative only in times
Of great emergency but at all times
aiding the sick, the aged and the
involuntary unemployed. The -four
principal sections of his general
plan embraced provisions for the
aged and widowed, public health
the unemployed and intelligent use
of land.
Hopkins said he favored fixet
pension for widows provided from
tax money.
There are thousands of widow.
on relief and I see no rhyme MOI
reason in our present method oi
caring for them," he said. But will
we give pensions to all old people
and widows? I think not. They will
be on the basis of need, admins
tered by county welfare agencies.
For tie unemployment problem
Hopkins predicted unemployment
insurance and a system of labor ex-
changes. The insurance feature
would provide a cash payment for
from eight to 16 weeks and no more
After that, if unable to find place
in private industry, the Individual
would be given work on public works
projects.
Hopkins said the country would
hever treat the unemployed left
ever from this depression as the un-
employed were treated in 1929.
"Of all the SNUG conplacency ]
ever have seen, that of 1929 over
the unemployment of two or three
million men in the midst of our
great apparent wealth was the
worst.

Ashley Diuorce
Hearing Set

LONDON, May 25. U.P)-The di-
vorce petition of Lord Ashley, in
which he named Douglas Fairbanks
as correspondent, was set today
for early hearing.
The case will come up on the
calendar during the next term of
court, which extends from May 20
to July 1.
AS is customary in British pro-
cedure, the evidence will not be
made public, although the justice
often gives a brief summary and
comments on it in giving his de-
cision.
1t was announced that Lord
Ashley's suit will be contested,
which means probably a protract-
ed hearing with voluminous testi-
mony by both sides.
