were held idle by rain.
1t was Stoneham's first starting
game of the season and when he
came up in the fifth Thomas,
Bluege and Cotelle were perched
on the sacks. The Tulsa graduate
lined the sphere to deep left center.
The Tribe collected four markers
in that big" inning, Sherlock hav-
ing scored previously when Pitcher
Irv Stein of the Hens walked.
Bluege with the bases clogged.
First Ladies' Day"
The second tilt Of the series was
on tap this afternoon and it was the
first ladies day" of the season.
Women we're to be admitted free
to the grandstand with the pay
ment of the Is cents tax. Fred
Haney's Hens are scheduled here
through Sunday, after which the
Indians will go to Louisville on the
first leg of a road trip that will
keep them away from home until
May II.
Myles Thomas performed in grand
style on the Tribe mound during
the early innings yesterday, but the
Hens kept after him and finally
forced him to retire in favor of
Vance Page in the eighth. Toledo
Outhit the Redskins, Is to 8, but
Stein of the visitors was given poor
support, especially by Salty Parker,
Shortstop, who had bad dGy with
three miScueS.
Blunt Starts Rally
1t was a red-hot battle and score
less for four StanZaS. Stein was Civ
ing the home nine trouble and when
Sherlock led off in the fifth Mana
ger Killefer ordered him to try
bunt. 1t was successful and Johnny
Riddle followed with SingleN over
third. Parkers error on Thomas
filled the bases, Bluege walked,
Sherlock tallying, and Cotelle forced
Riddle at the plate. Stoneham
then belted the sphere to the wall.
He was left on base, however, by
Stephenson and Heath.
Toledo counted one marker in the
sixth on Walkers triple and Roett-
gers out, and in the seventh an
other Hen scored on a single by
Susce, Cohan's single and Haney'S
double. Fast fielding by Cotelle
erased Cohen at the plate on Ha-
ney'S blow. There was another Hen
uprising in the eighth and Myles
Thomas was taken out of the box.
Page went in and held the rally to
one run, which ended the Toledo
scoring.
With one down in the eighth
Stephenson of the Tribesmen
walked and scampered home on
triple by Heath, and Mickey kept
going and scored when Parker made
a wild THROWN of the relay.
Otto Bluege, who was on the sick
list early in the week, returned to
the lineup yesterday and his work
in the short field was high class.
He figured in two of the Tribes
three double plays and accepted 10
chances without a miss. His pres
ence made an important difference
in the Tribe defense and he reached
base three times in the leadoff posi-
ton.

Disarmament Game

If you enjoy the sight of number of distinguished and silk-hatted diplomats running earnestly around in small cir cle, you must not forget to examine the current naval disarmament conference in London. It isn't simply because this disarmament" conference will bring more and heavier arming on the part of all concerned. It's the way it will work that will be worth watching.
 Start with England. Tn e English aim to increase their navy, for what seems to be good and sufficient reasons - war in Ethiopia, threats of trouble in the Medi- terranean, shenanigans by the Japanese in China, and so on. Out of all of this, inevitably, will come larger British fleet.
 Next we come to Germany. Under the recent agreement with Britain, the Ger mans will build their naval strength tip to 35 per cent of the British fleet. This will mean substantial enlargement of exist ing German strength.
 This, in turn, draws France into 1t. The French wil linsist on having stronger nay than the Germans have, and so, when the Germans start building, the French will do the same. That means something to Mussolini. It is cardinal point in his policy to keep Italian naval strength equal to that of the French; SO when the French lay down new ships, tte Italians are certain to do likewise.
 This, if you haven't yet got dizzy, brings u3 back to England. One of the reasons England demands more ships today is the fact that her margin of superiority over other naval powers in the Mediterranean
 meaning Italy and France-isn't great enough So when France and Italy build new ships, England will have to build some more to keep ahead of them.
 Off on the outskirts will be Uncle Sam, determined to keep his fleet as large as the British fleet and in the background are the Japanese, who insist that their fleet will be the equal of Americas. Fol low this sort of hting long enough and you will find yourself stepping on your own heels. It is an ascending spiral of the dizziest kind ever seen Self-starting and self-perpetuating. The secret of per petual motion seems to have been dis covered at last
 In plain English, the whole stunt is wildly insane. I build because you build because he builds because build because ---it sounds like game that the inmates of Matteawan cooked up to pass a dull afternoon. And yet it is all strictly logical process, made inevitable by the present state of international relations
 Could there be more damning com ment on the fix into which the worlds blind nationalism and unchecked greed have got 1t?

Mahoney. We think it was also brought about with loss of considerable pres tige.
 There is no doubt but what an adverse decision on the part of the A. A. U. of the United States would have resulted in similar actions by other nations planning to compete in the 1886 Olympics. Our attitude on the question of participation was regarded in many countries as the guide to be followed by them. We hope that when the result of last weeks grave debate is heralded far and wide, the news will be accompanied by the fact that the A. A. U. has been shaken to its very foun- dations by what transpired last week.
 There is still 8 chance of preventing American entry into the games, which instead of being merely display of na- tional strength in athletics have become a political catspaw for the present dic- tator of Germany There are other ways of preventing it than the mere say-So of the A. A. U. Still it cannot be denied but that the A. A. U. action will probably swing wavering sentiment its way. Those who were not committed one way or an other will now swing with the ruling body in amateur sports. The question has become national and bears watching by everyone.

Good News

It was good news to read yesterday that Governor Wilbur L. Cross had seen fit to reappoint Commissioner James M. Lynch to his present position in the Com pensation Court of the fifth congression- al district. His work in that office more than merits such action upon the part of the governor. And it was not unexpected that in his commission to Attorney Lynch Governor Cross expected his com plete approval of his conduct of the office since he was named to it upon the death of the former incumbent, the late Fred eric M. Williams.
 Since assuming his present official po- sition Commissioner Lynch has been ex- tremely active in the preparation of 8 di- gest of compensation findings in the period from 1881 to 1884. It has been hailed by the legal fraternity as a most complete and thorough piece of work And any number of Commissioner Lynch's findings have been quoted throughout the state and no doubt will form the basis for future decisions in the compensation courts of this state. It is indeed credit to this city that the office has found such excellent successor to MT. Williams.

Police Drive Praiseworthy

There are plenty of caustic remarks going the rounds of the city about the activities of local police in resting drivers for violating various traffic ordi- nances. None of them is deserved. The police are serving in good cause in mak- ing such a roundup. Instead of being periodical, it should be customary for the vigilantes to bring in offending motor ists or else to issue traffic tickets to them that can be turned in at police headquart- CTS with the necessary fine.
 Waterbury is city of many ups and downs, turns and twists. The physical outlines of the city are such as to pre- vent such city planning as would make all our streets uniform. That situation has been thoroughly discussed and people long ago agreed to make the best of it. Traffic laws have long been regarded as laws to be broken not obeyed. Of course all motorists can't be clasSed this way. There are many, probably good safe majority, that will and do obey all regu- lationS.
 But there is working minority that refuses to be bound by rules. As conse- quence we have frequent passing of red lights, no regard for full-stop signs, and reckless disregard for public life on the highways. There are too many fatal acci- dents these days for Waterbury to coun- tenance any such tactics as lead to more of them. We compliment our police de- partment for getting after the violators. It will in time make everyone of us con- ecious of the fact that when we drive an automobile we drive potential weapon of destruction and must handle it care fully.

Another Victim

But MT. Hutton must not be looked upon as a solitary victim of the h-and-m plague. Neither Is New York to be viewed as the only section of the country where it has broken out. We have Q fellow sufferer from the same affliction in Connecticut in the person of Mir. Kenneth Bradley, of Vest port, dragoman- -in-chief for the Young Turk excursion in the Re- publican party. MT. Bradley Is the Republican leader in the State Senate and one of MT. J. Henry Roraback's brightest young men. While his leadership in the senate was nothing to brag about he did show in other places that as a foot -in-the -mouther he is in MT. Hutton's class.
 During our last municipal caln- paign while the republican carldt. dates were being pictured as civic patriots who wanted office only because 1t would give them the 0p. portunity to render service and jobs had nothing to do with 1t, Senator Bradley delivered Q hoof- and-mouth speech at Q Young Re. publican smoker which destroyed that fantasy. At another and more recent Young Turk gathering out where the West begins, he is quot ed as describing Postmaster Gen. eral Farley as "cream-skimming Tammany Tiger Jirn." It might have sounded funny in Kansas but the laugh died away before 1t reached Connecticut.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1935-12-13

An organization whose primary pur- pose will be the preservation of Connecti- cuts antiquities is shortly to be created. Tomorrow afternoon in New Haven a group of sponsors will gather in New Ha- ven to discuss ways and means of foster ing such movement. It is non-profit making group and it's aims are entirely altruistic. In short the hope is that by creation of some such society many his- torical buildings and sites may be perma- nently preserved for posterity. The so- ciety would encourage donation of land and presentation of gifts to the state so that management would be for the pub lie and not for private gain. Where old buildings of architectural value are in danger of being razed or renovated the society would endeavor to suggest reten- tion of the beautiful colonial lines by sug- gesting the advice of architects and builders of known sympathies The move ment merits much support.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1935-12-13

A recent article in the Journal of For estry by Harry D. Tiemann says that the largest tree in the world is a California redwood, 364 feet high. It stands in Humboldt State Redwood Park. A moun- tain ash once was measured that went to 347 feet. A Douglas fir is reported that was felled in 1895 and which measured AT feet. On this tree, which may or may not have been freak of nature, but cer- tainly was it's colossus, there were no limbs at all up to 300 feet. That sort of puts our famous Wethersf1eld elm in the shade all right.

Cured

ONAAONA aa
 It is anticipated that having re- moved himself from the cares of General Foods MT. Hutton will enc joy a speedy and Q permanent cure from whatever ails him. He still continues on as 8 director of the corporation and in that capacity will be free to say what he likes and in the fashion that pleases him. He will not, in all probabil- ity, however, continue to hang out his shingle as advizer to industry. The last prescription he wrote left a bad taste on the patients palate. If 1t should be true that General Foods got rid of the chairman of its board of directors because of dangerous hoof-and-mouth syt1p- toms (and also the realization that 1t is not good business to recoil- mend ganging up methods on an administration which is still in office) then Mir. Roosevelt must answer Q fresh indictment for li- quidating the right of free speech. Things have come to c pretty pEss in our beloved land when it is no longer possible for . Big Business Man to open his mouth and put his foot in it without being called on the carpet by the boss and be. ing fired from Q job that didn't pay anything anyway.
 Here is something the Liberty
 League of which MT. Hutton is
 leading batsfnan should stop im-
 mediately, pronto, right sway

A Book a Day
Here's Final Volume in "Our Times" Series
 ny BRICE CATION

With "The Twenties", Mark Sul- livan brings to close his great his- tory of the present generation, "Our Times" This is the sixth and last volume in the series, and 1t is per- fectly obvious that the six volumes are going to be standard reference work for great many years.
 "The Twenties" in some ways ex- hibits MT. Sullivan's virtues and and weaknesses as an historian with equal force. As a political writer, he was on the inside of most of the epost-war politics, and he can tell about it with complete authoriza- ton and candor. On the other hand as a partisan he is in this volume describing recent events, and his ob- jectivity suffers.
 The bulk of his book is devoted tc @ discussion of the Harding admin istration, and it makes surpassing. ly interesting reading.
 MT. Sullivan comes to the rescue of Harding's reputation. He presents him, convincingly, as @ completely honest, high-principled man whose tragedy was that he took weakness for yielding to his friends into the one place where such a weakness l, unendurable-the White House. Harry Daugherty, to, is presented in a new light. He is not the villain of the piece, to MT. Sullivan; instead he is c man who honestly tried tt shield Harding from the crooks and chiselers who swarmed about Wash. ington after the inauguration, c man who reaped much undeservet obloquy.
 For the rest, MT. Sullivan offerl his familiar review of our popular songs, novels, plays, movies. ant slang expressions and rounds out 6 very fine job of historical writing with an excellent, readable book. Published by scribner's, the bool sells for Ss.75.
