"PINK SLIP" IN
INCOME TAXES
u. S. Senate Joins House in
Repeating Publicity
Clause
AROUSED SENTIMENT

The thousands of little pink slips
which income tax payers painstak-
ingly filled out with intimate de-
tails of their revenue were slated
for the Treasury ash can Thursday
instead of public inspection. Calm
ly reversing the position for in
come tax publicity it has maintain
ed consistently during recent years
the Senate Thursday voted by an
overwhelming So to 1G not to open
the file to pink slips data to the
public gaze. Senator Hastings of
Delaware voted for repeal while
Senator Townsend was paired on
the vote. He also favored repeal.
A Senate amendment to permit
state and local tax officials to in
spect the returns sent the measure
back to the House. which had al
ready voted pink slip repeal. An
agreement seemed assured and of
ficials said there would be little
doubt that President Roosevelt
would sign the repeater, since pres
ent law would permit him to make
returns public at his discretion.
Ten Republicans and 43 Democrats
voted to repeal the publicity law.
LaFollette was joined by We Repub-
icans and 10 Democrats in oppos-
ing repeal.

seemed to race around the clock.
He was committing one of the most
deadly sins known to radio but
couldn't help 1t. Try as he would,
his vocal cords wouldn't obey the
orders of his brain.
Finally the production man
stopped signaling and came over
and touched the victim on the shoul-
der. With that. the paralysis van
fshed and he started to read with
such a roar that he awakened his
wife who started to scream because
she thought he surely was being

terrifying that now when he goes

long chance. he leaped overheard.
Naturally. the ship was delayed in

A story | just heard Is ironical to
say the least. Jack Powell re-
signed his job with the City News
association to act as director of
publicity for one of the bigger
steamship lines. Never having done
any publicity previously, he prayed
that he might carry the job along
until he found his way around. His
one hope was big story-some-
thing that would put his line on the
front pages. Four days after he
took the job. the big story broke-a
story that put the line on front
pages all over the world. That
story was the burning of the Moro
Castle. Powell still has his job,
however.

Linke Picks Up KnuckIer.

SCHooLBoY ROWE virtually was
unknown until he went down with
a sore arm in 1888. The next season
he tied the American League record
for consecutive pitching victories with
Is in row and finished the campaign
with a "a and 8 record.
There is no better example than Ted
Lyons of the White Sox who, at "a, is
enjoying one of the best seasons of
his 15-year career. Lyons is the same
gent who led all American League
pitchers in most games lost in 1898
with 81. Ted came up with a fast
ball and lost it because Of a sore
wing.
Bob Grove discovered that he could
win games after a sore arm which
deprived him of the speed ball he pos
sesSed during his days with the Ath-
1etics and currently on the Nationals
is another pitcher who first learned
to pitch after becoming a sore-arm
victim. Eddie Linke more or less was
a faSt-baller until he went down not
with sore arm but a dead" one.
Since his recovery last Winter the
roly-poly Linke added knuckler and
good curve to his repertoire, which
may account for his six victories in
his last seven starts.
Coppola probably will need a fast
ball as well as curve to be a big
league pitcher but the chances are
that he will regain his zip pitch. In
the meantime, if he has picked up
curve while nursing his ailing arm the
only people he's likely to offend are
rival batsmen.

EAIR HILL, Md, September 2l.-
l. Hunt racing was to return to

most difficult and interesting courses
in the United States, the Foxcatcher
brush route which William du Pont,
jr, designed in emulation Of the
Aintree Grand National and opened
last year before throng OF steeple-
chase enthusiasts.
At 2:45 pm. this afternoon the
first event on q four-race program
was to be called to the post, with
the. card to be climaxed by the $4,000
Foxcatcher National Cup steeplechase.
Two brush courses have been con-
structed on the rolling hillsides OF the
du Pont estate here. One Is used
for the major test of the day, the
other for a secondary croSs-country
race. There are two fiat daShes to
be contested.
Entries from virtually every i'm

large fields would go to the post this
afternoon, among them some of the
recent winners at the big tracks and

plantation. There were no UNI
pires, no real base bags. Estallella
proved a bow-legged little fellow
who knew not a word of English.
He played in the outfield, far
enough back to catch in his back
pocket the longest drive Babe Ruth
ever hit.
Cambria signed him anyway. He
spent hours in the immigration
offices, more hours convincing Es-
tallella's family he was doing right
by their boy. Finally, he brought
him to Albany in the Fall. Like q
daddy he tried to teach him some
English and what it meant to ad-
vance after a catch, to slide, to
bunt. Estallella still calls him
"Poppa Joe"
A couple of weeks ago he sent
the little Cuban to Griffith, who
turned him over to Bucky Harris.
The latter was dubious, but played
him. There was nothing to lose.
In a few dramatic innings Harris
and Capital fans got the surprises
of their lives. The kid was WOW.
He'll make the grade some day,
Bucky now says. Already this
boy who has been playing real base
ball only one season is given
chance to win the regular third
base job next year.
Meantime, Cambria's still at it.
His latest contribution, ticketed
for Spring delivery, is Pitcher Joe
Krakauskas, a Lithuanian whom
Cambria dug up in Hamilton, On
tario. Griff's seen him work and
predicts that in a couple Of years
he win be pitching in the majors.
He calls him "Park-your-c carcass"
but says he's got what it takes.
And so has Cambria.

down on President Clark Griflth,s
idea OF nocturnal base ball for Wash

published early in August to the effect
that the Washington Club prexv will
seek Tight" games for Washington in
1885. Il simply said that I'd rather
see few night games played in the
American League instead of these svn-
thetic double headers on SUNDAYS
They are what really hurt the game
But as for me, I'm not going to
play night ball. However, I'll vote
in favor of it for other cities If the
proposition Is brought up during the
Winter meeting of the American

- George Bernard Shaw is
shipped from Harrisburg to

uniform it's about time Joe Cambria
was introduced formally to Uncle
Clark Grifith's constituents. For
Joe is the gent who'll send Didrick-
son to play first base or Shaw to
roam the outfield If anybody does.
p. r. Barnum would have liked
Cambria. Before long Barnum prob
ably would have traded Tom Thumb
to Albany and his "fattest woman
in the world" to Harrisburg for Al
Benson, the bewhiskered pitching
refugee from the House Of David.
Cambria is a dark, stocky little
man, partly bald. AS he climbs the
ramps at Griffith Stadium day after
day, he's probably been taken for a
model fan. He's as plain as an old
shoe, yet his only claim to fame Is
the bizarre army of ball players on
his pay rolls. In Baltimore his
name is synonymous with a laundry.
In Harrisburg and Albany they
know him as owner of two bad ball
clubs. Yet, beyond doubt, Cambria
is base balls stand-out Snowman,
its premier tom tom beater.
Two years ago he dipped into
base ball by acquiring the Albany
club of the International League.
Cambria didn't sink much dough
into it. He got by on q shoestring,
energy and brains. This year he
acquired Harrisburg Of the New
York Pennsylvania League. He tied
up with Clark Griffith In a working
