Leverton, a star of stars while

Leverton is a crackerjack bats

NEW YORK, June Z6.-1ne
Griffs arrived on Mazda Lane this
morning just a little bit punch
drunk after their tour of the
hinterlandS. They won seven
games and lost nine. With a little
pitching here and there and a
somewhat smarter defense it
might have been different.
The luck of the game broke
with Schoolboy Rowe in the third
inning of yesterdays game in
Detroit when Goose GoSlin made
a great catch of Myers shot into
left centerfield. Manush's double
followed this smack, and Rowe
might have been out of the ball
game. The Griffs won the game,
Z to 4.
Greenberg singled in the fourth
inning, and then to the amaze
ment of the fans, was caught off
base by Pettit's battling half-balk
move. Later Petit almost caught
Goose GoSlin off third base.
It was a good thing that Green
berg was caught off base, for two
hits followed and runs would have
scored.
Wallie Pipp, former star at
Catholic University, was around
with his running fire of chat.
Wallie looks at the game from a
different standpoint now, and his
keen observations make the after
noon interesting.
The Griffs scored four runs in
the fifth inning, getting single,
two doubles, a triple and a home
run. All they needed was base

D. c. HEALTH WORK
LAG POINTED OUT
Rutland Urges Funds Be In.
creased From 80 Cents
to So Per Capita.

Until Washington is willing to
increase its appropriation for public
health work from 80 cents to 81 per
capita. the Capital will lag behind
comparable American cities and can
not expect to take its place as a
model for the balance of the country,
according to DR.. George c., Rutland,
District health officer. DR.. Rutland
addressed the Institute on Delin-
quency and Health at the United
States Chamber Of Commerce yes
terday.
DR.. Rutland gave figures on Wash
ington's public health work and COM
pared them with statistics from other
cities. Only in food inspection Is
the city on a par with the average.
Although that Is true, there is no
law here requiring that persons han
ding meat comply with health regu-
lations. The meat itself is inspected,
DR.. Rutland said, but the meat cut
ters and packers are not.
The health officer said the city has
only about one-third of the number of
nurses 1t needs, including the Instruc-
tive Visiting Nurse Society, which is
largely supported not by public funds
but from money donated through the
Community Chest. The public health
nursing staff, he said, should be at
least three times larger.

by John A. Locher, secretary Of the
Building Trades Council, as q result
Of a renewal Of the old agreement
for the s1.37la-an-hour scale for 9
seven-hour day.
Painters had been ''iocked out" they
claimed, by refusal of the employers
to continue paying the old scale, but
when agreements were reached indi-
vidually with different contractors fol
the old scale for another year, the
men returned to work, for those who
had signed the agreement.
Asbestos Workers Local Union, No
"a, has signed a new agreement fol
an increase in wages on sliding
scale, Locher announced. The agree
ment runs for two years. In order
to give contractors time to complete
Jobs figured at the lower rate, the
scale continues at $1.25 an hour fol
an eight-hour day from April / to
July l. 1t will increase July l to
$1.371a cents an hour until Septem-
ber /. when it will rise to $3.50 an
hour, which will continue until April
l, 1887.
This brings the asbestos workers
scale back to the level of about three
years ago, when IN order to help stim-
ulate business, the union voluntarily
took q reduction.

had used around here, but decided

RECEIVING HOME

Superintendent Asks 200, 900 of
Work-Relief Fund for
Purpose.

A plea for the construction Of a new
building to house children confined at
the Receiving Home for Children was
fled with the Board Of Public Welfare
today by Grady H. Leonard, superin-
tendent Of the home.
He urged that 100000 Of the new
work relief funds which the District
expects to get be used for this purpose.
which he said was necessary to correct
badly overcrowded conditions at the
present building at 8l6 Potomac ave
nue. southeast.
In an outline Of the matter he said
the District will have to pay after
July 1 $49,375 as rent for the building.
He said this is about what the build
ing is worth. He called attention to
the fact that more than $4,000 has
been spent to reconstruct and improve
the building since 1t was first rented
In October. 1928.
"One Of the greatest inadequacies
in the present housing is that there Is
no facilities for separating the delin-
quent from the dependent child"
Leonard said. THE murderer, the
housebreaker, the automobile thief,
the purse-snatcher are placed In the
same quarters with the small boy who
is In the receiving home because he
has no home There are no facilities
for segregation"
Describing the quarters for girls
confined at the institution, Leonard
said children under seven years Of age
are placed in the girls quarters where
they come in contact with inmates
who have been arrested on vice
charges.
To show the need for larger quarters
Leonard said that on i04 nights dur
ing the first eight months of the pres
ent fiscal year some Of the boys had
to sleep either two In q bed or on the
floor because Of lack Of SUFFICIENT space.

proved represents an average of the
various lump sum amounts Congress
has used during the 10 years that the
lump sum practice has been followed.
The $8,317,500 Federal payment
also was indorsed at hearings by the
Citizens Joint Committee on Fiscal
Relations Between the United States
and District of Columbia. The joint
committee reaffirmed its adherence
to the unrepealed substantive law of
1922, which fixed the 60-40 definite
proportion ratio of maintaining the
Capital, as between the District and
Federal Governments. It added, how
ever, that if the lump sum practice
is to be continued at this time $8,3l7,-
500 would represent reasonable pay
ment toward the pending bill.
School Projects Added.
Responding to the appeals OF civic
organizations, the Senate added to
the bill 16 projects for school build
ings or sites, amounting to $1,615, 500!
The House had approved only four
other projects amounting to $685., 900,
so that the bill now contains q school
building program Of $2,250,500.
The Senate also restored the funds
for continuing the character educa-
ton experiment in the schools.
Other important Senate increases
include: For 141 more policemen and
the reconditioning of the old No. 2
precinct, which was closed several
years ago, approximately $500. 600; for
welfare needs, chiefly for maintenance
of hospitals, $380,042; for highway
work out of the gasoline tax fund,
$340 600; for Water Department i'm
provements. out of the separate water
fund, s238,250; for Public Library
maintenance, $22,305, and variety
of smaller maintenance items. In
cluded in the gas tax amendments
are: For a viaduct across railroad

$200,000; to draw plans for q new
