YANKEES LOOK LIKE REAL TEAM

perhaps OF greatest Importance OF
Ell. the club has discipline. This was
lacking when Ruth was around.
A five man staff will patrol the
Yankee outfield. George Selkirk is
the No. rightfielder, taking Ruth's
place. Selkirk. a left-handed hitter,
win do most of the work, but against
formidable left-handed pitching,
Jesse Hill will be substituted.
In left Earle Combs will be the
mainstay. But, like Selkirk, he's a
lefthanded batter and Myril Hoag,
q right handler. will get the call

BY HENRY McLEMORE

United Press Staff Correspondent
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla, March
22.-Unless there is strenuous
protest 1 plan to back into today's
essay of sweetness and light by
lnquiring if James JOY Judas Jukes
Johnston has been fired by Madison
Square garden.
This is a reasonable question, for
when I left New York shortly after
the turn of the century James Joy
Judas JukeS was being fired every
five minutes. He was being dismiss
ed as promoter so regularly. l re-
member that housewives saved the
wear and tear on their hour glasses
by boiling their eggs to the report
OF his exit.
am curious about JohnSton's sta
tus for this reason-if he has been
given the sack I have the man TO
replace him. My candidates name
is Turner Scott, Daytona Beachs
leading sports promoter, and gem
tleman given TO button top shoes.
do not put Mr.. SCOTS name for
ward casually. have studied his re-
quisiteS carefully, and he has the
makingS OF successful Madison
Square garden promoter.
First. He can promote with less
profit than any man in America. He
told me yesterday, and he wasn't
Loasting, that he had been promot-
ing fights in Florida for 10 years
and still didn't have dime TO his
discredit. And he loses money SO
easily. Johnston's one serious han
dicap was COR Isl the fuss he makes
ever putting over a flop. My candi-
date can book a fight. get out the
advertising, and draw 80 spectators
apparently without effort.
Another of Mr.. SCOTS virtues is
his ability to think up novel, non
paying box office attractions. His
latest, which was tried out before a
capacity third-row last night, con-
sisted of a relay fight. Let Mr.. Scott
explain it:
IN relay fight, which thought
up in my own head, there are 10
fighters to side. Each side has a
captain VIII osits at the right side
with whistle. -Four guys, two from
each side, fight at a time. When the
captain sees one of his men getting
worn out, he blows the whistle and
sends in a substitute. The thing
ends when all the substitutes have
been used up and there amt but
two guys left. The one who stands
up longest wins for his side. Amt
that a hot one? They'd be nuts
about it in the garden"
1t was Mr.. Scott, too, who added
the novel touch to Negro battle
royals. Under his plan the boxers
when the fight is over and the GUS
I toners start throwing coins in the

to pick them up. As result, tht
| spectators are treated to the de.
iightful spectacle of the boys gath
eI-ing the coins in their mouths. The
record for collecting is held by
George Washington Jones who, two
weeks ago, picked up Sl.30 and three
/ splinters in four minutes flat.

Religious Row BObs Up

The long-standing row between Irish Catholic Democrats and French Catholic Democrats popped up again. ct came to head sev- eral years ago, when a French leader was communicated by the Pope.)
 Prince had been in opposition to the Rhode Island bishop and had become regarded as pro-Frefch But Prince couldn't even capture all the French vote, because Risk, his opponent, is of half-French ex- | traction.
 The Governor Green faction of Rhole Island democracy was strongly behind Prince, who had been state treasurer, but the lib- eral hard-boiled group, led by Tom l Mccoy. was sour on both Green and Prince.
 Also, you could find plenty of Rhode Island voters who were fed up at the way the democrats they had elected were jumping around l from office to office. | Congressman Condon. democratic incumbent for the district, had jumped into a judeship almost as soon as he was elected, Prince was trying to jump out of the state treasurership. The practice was getting to be rather bore.

ADDITIONAL BEDS
 GIVEN REMINGTON
Allotment of $SO,OOO In- sufficient to Meet Veter-
 ans Needs

Expansion of the facilities at Newington hospital under the pro- posed construction progam an- nounced by the national Veterans administration will be too limited to be of real benefit, Robert F, Birt, local veterans placement of- ficer said today.
 MT. Birt said that the 35 addi- tional beds made possible by the $S0,000 allotment for NeTington would not be of much help in meeting the increased demand for disqualification.
 We succeeded in placing a man yesterday, but only because it was an urgent case and because W. were fortunate enough to find an opening in the particular ward in which he will be placed" he said According to the local official, the Waterbury waiting list, while il has not increased appreciably, is still large.
 Senator Lonergan had been fighting for an appropriation of $300,00O which would enlarge the hospital to 400 bed capacity, as we'll as providing an administra- tion building. He was strongly supported by the American Leg ion, which since 1926 has advocat- ed a 500 bed hospital for Newing- ton, to provide for medical cen ter there for New England veter- ans.

HOW TO OBTAIN
 REPAIR CREDIT
Suggestions to Prospec- tive Borrower Outlined
 By FILA

Washington, D. C., Aug. 14-A simplified list of suggestions on how to obtain loans under the amended modernization credit plan has been compiled by the Federal Housing Administration.
 By an amendment to the Nation al Housing Act, the Housing Ad- ministration may now insure mod ernization credit advanced in amounts up to $50,000 for the purpose of modernization or the in- stallation of new equipment or machinery in industrial, commer- cial, and commercial-residential buildings. Details have been simpli- fled to a great extent. The proceed ure suggested to the individual by the Housing Administration is as follows: Decide what is needed for mod ernizing building and equipment. Consult equipment manufactur- CTS and dealers and building con- tractor as to the cost of the mod ernization work planned.
 Go to a bank or other local finan- cial institution that displays the UOuSS III tllC CAkCACt oIShy "hANAA means it has qualified for Federal Housing Administration credit in- surance.
 Make application to the lending institution for credit in the usual way.
 The carrying charges on credit insured by the Federal Housing Ad- ministration are the lowest rates. The maximum must not exceed the equivalent of $5 discount per $10O face amount sof one-year note repayable in monthly install l ments. The borrower may have up to l five years to pay.
 No down payment is required. Loans are made on the usual basis of credit rating, but the Fed eral Housing Administration con siders collateral appropriate under the $50,000 extension, though not
 obligatory by regulation. Decision in each case rests, however, witt the lending institution and not with Federal Housing Administration.
 The borrower may drive his owr
 bargain with the lending institution as to the rate of interest and period
 of repayment. but in no case may they exceed the limits stated above
 The bargain the borrower drives
 depends on how good his financia
 statement and borrowing "charac'
 ter" are and how good bargainel
 he Is.
 | When the borrower bears a goot treputation for reliability and capa
 bility, the lending institution ma,
 extend credit in amounts up tt
 $50,000. This credit may be insured
 by the lending institution witt

MRS. LINDBERCH
 MADE DEBUT AS AUTHOR TODAY
Publishes North to the Orient t''-Flight Made
 With Her Husband

New York, Aug. 14.-(UP)- Mrs. Anne Morrow Lindbergh made her debut <as an author to- day with the publication of North to the Orient" which narrates, in chatty. impersonal manner, the flight which she and her famous husband made to Japan and China in 1881.
 The book gives an insight into the steely personality of Charles A. Lindbergh, showing him to be fearless, patient with his wife but impatient with those who seek to pry into his affairs.
 A good deal of the narrative is devoted to Mrs. Lindbergh's ex- periences as wireless operator on the daring air voyage that carried their single-motored Sirius mono plane from Washington, across the uninhabited northern forest lands of Canada to ice-bound Arctic AL aska, thence along the Aleutian and 'Kuriles Archipelago to Japan and China.
 Throughout she refers to the pilot as "my husband" or Charles.
 When the trip was first planned, Mrs. Lindbergh thought her hus- band would serve as wireless op- orator as we'll as pilot until one day, to her surprise, he informed her that she would have to learn to operate a radio because that task would devolve upon her. '"The next day." Mrs. Lindbergt relates, ''he came home with . small practice set of buzzers and keys, connected to two dry cells When I pressed down the key there was a little squeak whicl brought four dogs and the bab! (the late Charles A. Lindbergh Jr.) scrambfng into my room. went on boldly with the Morse code in front of me, and. like everyone with a new fountain pen spelling out my own name in dot. and dashes; 'dit-dalr, daar-dit darr-dit, dit" (A-N-N-E). She reveals how she dreaded tht practical and theoretical examina tion given wireless operators be fore licensing. To aid her.

Salve for Democrats

Roosevelt and other administra- tion leaders have been somewhat comforted about that Rhode Is- land congressional election by con- fidential reports showing that much more than the New Deal issue fig ured in the contest, despite indica- tions to the contrary in most dis patches.
 The administrators poor posi- tion in New England is still con ceded and everybody knows the processing tax-anathema in New England textile areas - counted heavily against MT. Prince, the de- feated democrat.
 But the seeming absence of other local isues to help account for the bad trouncing Prince received was what made the party leaders here so glum.
 Current advices, stressing the fact that republicans boiled only 4S,O00 votes in the district as against a supposedly rock-bottom party vote of 49,000 in 1934- whereas the democratic vote slip ped from 10000 to 35,000-say that thousands of democrats stayed | home.
