celebrated group of cripples is
preparing to hit the comeback trail
this season.
Not in 20 years have so many one
time first rank performers been faced
with the necessity of regaining some
thing akin to their former brilliance
or being shunted off to the minors or
to the base ball boneyard.
The Boston Red SoX have made a
big investment in young Joseph Ed
ward Cronin as manager and short
stop, but they scarcely will figure TO
get anywhere in the American League
pennant race unless the celebrated
southpaw, Robert Moses Grove. can
shake the soreness out Of his arm

he will make a comeback.
Boston fans also will watch the at
tempted comeback of George Pipgras

tired last season after starting only
one game for the Red SoX.

LONGS MACHINE

Verbal Fireworks Flare as
Candidates Seek Party

NEW ORLEANS, September al
Selection of candidates for the Demo-
cratic primary in January was planned
at caucus today in an attempt to
close the breach in the political or
ganization left by Senator Huey P
Long.
Until early this morning the battle
over the choice of candidate for Gov
ernor ragged in the Roosevelt Hotel.
where Gov. o. K. Allen set up head
quarters in the Long imperial suite.
Heated arguments we're held be-
hind bolted doors The verbal tits
were between supporters and oppo-
nents of Lieut. Gov. James A. Noe, who
announced his candidacy for Governor
before the caucus and offended some
of the leaders.
EIlender Presses Claim.
Further confusion was added TO the
situation when Allen j. Ellender,
Speaker of the House, rose from his
the New Orleans conference. He was
angry over the Noe announcement and
pressed his claim for selection as
candidate for Governor on the ad-
ministration ticket
Noe appeared glum when he left
the Allen suite. Later he issued a
statement in which he said he had
been favored by Long through a proc
eSs OF elimination.
Some of the country leaders argued
against Noes candidacy, however, on
the ground he had been investigated
by Government agents on his income
tax and that he was associated with
Rev. Gerald L. X. Smith, "share-the-
wealth" organizer, whose position in
the faction has puzzled them.
Noe Backs Sharing.
Smith has told Gov. Allen that he
would take his following to another
camp if the "share-the-w wealth
principles were not adopted. Noe has
accepted them en- toto and at last re-
ports Smith was supporting him.
While the storm was raging in the
Allen camp, the opposition organiza-
ton was expected to announce the
candidacy for Governor of Representa-
tive Cleveland Dear, perhaps today.
