.s.King HarDey" Becomes Queen

A year ago there wandered into Field street fire headquar- ters q cat-just an ordinary cat. "Isn't he cute little thing?" the smoke-eatcrs ask ed one another and the cat was promptly adopted as the departments mascot. The fire men with appropriaee cere- monies, called the cat "Har- vey."
 For the past year Harvey" has been king of the fire de- pertinent, petted and admired by all.
 Yesterday, in a storeroom at headquarters, Harvey" gave birth to six kittens, thereby bringing consternation to the s'bravest." Bremen denied in- dignantly to newspapermen that they would change Har- vey's name to "Tillie."
 If you need q moral with your stories, perhaps the best one in this: "Even the best of fircmen are not too good at biology"

REV DR HOLMES
 ATTACKS PRIEST
F a her COughlin Made Target in Sunday Ser-
 mon Yesterday

New York, July 9.-(UP).-The ecclesiastical world waited today for the reply of Father Charles E. Coughlin to charges by Dr John Hayes Holmes that the acclaim of the crowd had changed the famous radio priest from a forceful per- sonality to one expressing "insuffer- able arrogance"
 Few who knew the militant pas- tor of the Shrine of the Little Flower in Detroit believed he would remain silent over Dr Holmes assertion during his Sum- day sermon at Community church that the Catholic clergyman lis a simple and sincere priest spoiled by a success far outrunning his ability and spirit, and overwhelm- ed by an age too vast for his knowl- edge and training to master"
 If he could be made to see the truth of the disintegration of char acter which is besetting him, he might be saved from the later de- velopment of career which prom ises dire consequences to himself and to the country" Dr Holmes said. "Is there no one to touch him with humility, and move him to sacrifice, for the public good ?"

 Squads

 Yale probably will carry the banner for the eastern schools.
