In a last minute change which
resulted in another miXup of pitch
ers in the A league, Gregory, Fly
ing A tWirler who was supposed
to have been taken into the Golden
State fold for the second half,
found himself wearing the Oilers
colors against the Bakers last night
on Wilson field as the second half
of the season opened. He pitched
his team to a 90 victory over the
Bakers.
The game was one of those free
hitting contests with extra base
hits predominating. Aaron pitched
for the Bakers and made a good job
of it in spite of the fact that he
lost his game. Both teams had to
call upon the services of substitutes
as many regulars failed to show up
at the play ball call.
The Bakers opened the scoring
in the first inning with one marker
but the Oilmen retaliated with
three in the third, another three
in the fifth and their final trio of
runs in the eighth frame. The
Bakers tied things up in the sixth
only to lose out later in the game.
Tonight the Golden Staters and
Fat Boys will meet with the Coca

Beck was bested but he got some
satisfaction in keeping his vow to

For the first time in % straight

The victory gave the Seals one

NEW YORK July 42-The S. S.
Washington comes in from Europe
tomorrow bringing, among others,
those two masters of the racket
and racquet, Joe Jacobs, the prize
fight manager, and Mrs. Helen
Wills, the tennis champion.
When the Washington slides to
rest at quarantine for her medical
examination a horde of boxing and
tennis writer's will forsake the gov
eminent cutter on which they came
down the bay, and scurry up the
liners side after the fashion of pi-
rates. Come to think about it the
boxing writer's probably will be
chanting 'yo no no, and bottle
of rum" as they scramble for Mr.
Jacobs cabin and information con-
cerning Max Schmeling. They
may not get the information, but
they'll certainly get the rum.
There will be no scrambling
among the tennis writer's. Once on
board they will, at command from
an appointed leader, shine the toes
CT their shoes on the back of their
pants legs, give a final straight
ening hitch to the knot of their
ties, and with an air of dignity,
deploy in search Of Queen Helen.
If they find her they'll be get
ting cold stares while their boxing
brothers down below are getting
cold beers.
There's no guarantee they'll find
Queen Helen, however. 1t is her
practice, once the ship passes Am
brose Lightship, to begin thinking
up ways and means to BATTLE the
press. She has crossed so many
times that she is no wan artist at
the little game.
Not so brother Jacobs. He'll take
the hinges off his cabin door if they
hinder anyone from getting in.
Therell be chairs and lemonade
for all. And he'll talk. His talk
tomorrow will be rather interesting,
for brother Jacobs has a lot of eX-
planning to do
AS matters stand, brother ia
cobs has pledged the services of his
fighter, Max Schmeling, to both
those rival concerns, Madison
Square Garden and the Twentieth
Century club. Jimmy Johnston of
the garden has a cable from broth
er Joe saying, in effect, Don't
worry, my dear pal, Schmeling will
fight Baer for you in September" :"

naming two games to wrest the
lead from the Yanks. A victory
today will leave Detroit a fraction
of a percentage point behind New
York.
Bitter feeling is likely to develop
between the clubs because of the
final play yesterday when Ben
Chapman charged into Catcher
Ray Hayworth at the plate, knock
ing him to his knees. Hayworth's s
mitt was wrested from his hand,
but he held the ball. He almost
keeled over as the crowd surged
out on the field and around him.
Detroit players had to assist him
to the Tigers dressing room.

hit game but lost it as the Phila-
delphia Athletics nosed out Chi

oust them more or less perman-

The Cardinals led the National
League from the final inning Of
the first game of yesterdays dou-
bleheader to the final inning Of
the second game. They won the
first game, but lost the second.
If they can down Bill Terry's men
this afternoon the lead will be
theirs. Jerome Dean, the Dizzy
one, will try to turn the trick for
them while Terry most likely will
send in his ace finger, Carl Hub

teams play a double header TO-
morrow.
Paul Dean pitched the Cardinals
to victory in the first of yester-
days games. He struck out IL
Giants. Joe Medwick drove out
two home runs. The final score
was 6 to l. Leroy Parmalee was
the losing pitcher. In the second
game, the Cards made four errors,
three by Pepper Martin, and lost
8 to 2. Al Smith, Giant portsid-
er, allowed only eight scattered
hits.

trating on this crucial series and

WASHINGTON, Mar. Q. (UP)
A Republican drive was started

Postmaster General James A. Far
ley.
Long himself promises plenty

head-on collision when Longs

work relief bill.
Senator Carter Glass, tired of
debate which has been mostly
pointless in the senate for the last
two weeks, announced his intcn-
ton to move for elimination Of
extraneous subject matter until
the senate is through considering
appropriation bills.
WASHINGTON, Mar. Q. OUP).
The senate yesterdaytpassed by n
vote Of GO to ID, a 100000, 900
war department appropriation bill
over the protest of Sen. Gerald
p. Nye, R., N. D., who pointed out
that a provision increasing the
enlisted strength of the army
about 40 per cent already had
caused Japan to consider an equal
increase.
The measure now goes back to
the house for concurrence in
amendments, one Of which tackled
on 100000 to provide for the
additional $4,000 soldiers.
Passage of the bill clears the
way for the senate to go back to
work on the work-relief bill Mon
day.
The house agenda next week
will include income tax publicity
repeal and the bonus, scheduled
for consideration Wednesday or
Thursday under a rule which will
permit members to choose be-
tween the Vinson and Patman bo-
nus bills.
House leaders fought to force a
vote yesterday on the bill increas-
ing the bond authorization Of the
Home Owners Loan Corp. but a
parliamentary tangle and depar-
ture of members to below the
quorum point forced adjournment
until noon today. But an amend
ment was adopted 119 to ~, in
creasing the proposed bond au-
thorization to $1,750,000,000 in
stead of $1,500,000,000.

this morning that the bill, intro

reducing the number of city

Commissioners, he said, are
