He has spent most of that fort
night recuperating from a damned
index finger on his pitching hand.
On the occasion Of his last start
Whitehill did more than jam his
finger. He was Shelled off the
rubber in rather hasty, not to say
uncouth, style.
Deshong returned to action
after a joust with the flu. He
worked against the Athletics in
Philadelphia on April II, holding
the Athletics to two hits, and al
lowing two runs. Deshong was
wild in that game, and after the
contest told Harris that he had
been racked by fever throughout
the previous night. He went to a
hospital Immediately after the
game.
Allows Only One Run
Limiting the hapleSS Browns to
single tally in nine innings yes
terday, Deshong had an earned
run average in two starts Of is
TALES per nine inning game. He
has allowed 3.5 hits per nine in
ming game, which is stepping
along in proper style for a young
pitcher.
The most pleasing part Of De
shong's game yesterday was that
he conquered a disposition toward
uildneSS in the beginning of the
contest. Only five men got on
bases after the third inning, and
three of these drew bases on balls.
Double play twice swept runners
off the lines as Washington
played ball that was errorless IN
fact as well as In the judgment OF
the official scorer.
It is true that Deshong's two
starts were against the weakest
teams ir the American League,
and we would like to see the well
dressed man in action against
sterner competition before going
into ecstasieS. Just his style indl-
Gates that he will do just as well
with Cleveland, Detroit or the
Yankees as he has done with these
teams. He has a lot Of stuff and
a lot Of deception.
Three Starters
Establishing Deshong on the
right hand of Buck NewSom, with
Pete Appleton carrying ON as he is
going, the Griffs have three start
ing pitchers who look like the
goods. We have to figure White
hill as able to win at least IA
games, even with his late start.

Scarlet FeveI
Halls Sports
AtEpisCopaI

Athletics and other school activi-
ties are at a standstill today at
Episcopal High School, in Alexan-
dria, Va, on account Of an cpl
demic Of scarlet fever.
Although only one mild case was
reported, after an investigation Of
the malady, Alexandria health Of.
ficials deemed it best to quaran-
tine the little institution until
Tuesday to safeguard the spread
ing of the fever.
BY virtue of this action, two
athletics events for Episcopal
teams were postponed today by
the athletic department.
The baseball nine was to have
played Gilman High, of Baltimore,
in Alexandria, and the junior
track team, the juniors of Wood
berry Forest. The two events will
be rescheduled at later dates in
the season.
Episcopal High withheld the

early today. Officials of the school
were not alarmed inasmuch as
they were satisfied it was only a
mild case. But they closed the
school following orders from Alex
andTia authorities

weight.
At 1873 pounds he's cousin to

proposition goes deeper than that
with Linke. The mans health
enters into the deliberations, or

The Griffs ran up the high
score of the season against the

WARNEKE, DEAN IN GREAT FORM
 IN 4-3 CONTEST
Only Nine Eaters Face Mighty Dizzy in His
 Three Innings
LON DOES GOOD WORK TO STEM BATTING TIDE
Lefty Grove Charged with Defeat Young Joe Di-
 Maggie Goat of Game

BOSTON, Mass, July 7.-The Ma tional League emerged today with it's first triumph in four all-star games with the American League, winning four to three before the smallest crowd yet to witness the classic.
 Lon Warneke's pitching saved the day for the Nationals after Dizzy Dean and Carl Hubbell had held the Americans runless for the first six innings. Dean was in top form and faced only nine men in his three innings in the box. He was credited with the victory while Lefty Grove was charged with the defeat.
 Joe DiNaggio, New York rookie sensation was the goat of the game. In the second inning he let Gabby Hartnetts drive go through his legs for a triple, scoring Demaree. Hart nett scored on Whitney's fly to cen ter in the fifth Galan hit to the right field flag pole on the foul line, the ball bounding into the stands for a. home run. Billy Her man singled, went to second on Di- Maggio's tumble and scored on an- other hit. The Americans scored thrice in the seventh, Lou Gehrig hitting homer with two out. Goose Goslin singled through the infield, Selkirk walked and Appling singled, letting two runs in.
 At this point Warneke mounted the hill for the Nationals, replacing Davis. He walked Gehringer but got DiMaggio on liner to Durocher for the third out and the ball game.

 l A. M. to / A. M.

Closing hours for beer and liquor sales in the Territory of Alaska were announced today by the Territorial Liquor Board, the first action of it's kind taken by the Board, the mat ter of closing previously being left up to the cities.
 Under the new action taken by the Board, no liquor may be sold in any place in the Territory between the hours of l a. m. and a. m. The new regulation becomes effec- tive on July Is, according to Frank A. Boyle, Secretary of the Board.
 Many complaints have been re- ceived from all over the Territory protesting against lack of closing hours, MT. Boyle said, mostly from the cities. The new closing regu- lation will apply to those handling beer and liquor both inside and outside cities and towns.
 At the present time there are no closing hours on dispensaries in Juneau but there is a city ordinance which requires places of amusement to close at a. m., such as pool halls, dancing places, etc. Special permit is given for staying open until 230 on nights beIore holidays and Sat- urday nights.

LANDON TELLS

Governor Explains Differ ences Tn New Deal and
 COP Social Plans

TOPEKA, Kansas, July 7.-Stress- ing the difference between the New Deals social security program and the Republican platform, Gov. AL fred Landon recommended that Kansas prepare to join any secur- ity system as may ultimately be- come a settled law upon this ques- tion."
 Gov. Landon expressed this view today in a joint special session of the Legislature at a meeting de- signed to secure greater participa- tion in the major phases of the Federal Social Security Law.
 He urged that an amendment or amendments be submitted to the electorate in November enabling the Legislature to pass laws providing for necessary social security, wheth- CT under the New Deal or the Re- publican platform. calling for a pay-as-you-go social security with direct States taxes augmented by Federal funds.

NUISANCE VALUE

It is the fashion of politicians to make light, in public, of the pos sible effects upon themselves of independent movements, walks talk en by individuals or groups, and political cross-currents generally.
 But in the solitude of their own inner conferences, such movements always are weighed with greatest care. The normal balance between the two great parties is so small, figured down to percentage basis, that every defection must be mat ter of interest, if not concern.
 So the first task of the Repub- lican and Democratic high com mands will be to inform themselves as fully as they can just what the new Union Party may hope for, and in what States; how much the walk of Al Smith and associates means in the cold arithmetic of total votes; and whether, in each case, there may not be an offset of gain due to reaction among those who do not like the bolters.
 Very often in the past, party organizations have fed on opposi- ton. The Democratic defy about Grover Cleveland-"we love him for the enemies he has made'-was something more than personal tri-

Officials Report Neither Pilot or Plane Li-

WASHINGTON, July 7.-The Bu- reau of Air Commerce said today it had refused a permit for the non- stop flight from Anchorage to Se- attle because neither plane nor pilot was licensed under the reciprocal treaty with Canada. This country had agreed, officials said, that per- mits to fly over Canadian territory could not be issued to unlicensed airmen or ships.
 Bureau officials said Russell Owen, the pilot, formerly held license but had it taken away from him two years ago. They said he acquired the auto-engined plane shipped to Alaska without attempting to obtain a Federal license for it.

BORAH, HOOVER
 AT PEAK WHEN
 LANDON A KID"

WASHINGTON, July 7.-The far separation of the new lives that have come into the Republican Party with the advent of Landon is emphasized as much as anything perhaps by comparison with the "old figures"
 While a bare uozen years is a veritable tick-tock to the revolving hand of history, yet in the life of political figure it is long time
 The Cleveland convention may have seen the beginning of the final chapters of the political bio- graphies of two ranking American figures-Borah and Hoover.
 Dovetailing with that history but continuing on into what may prove an utterly new era (those words have been used in other placeS) are the beginning chapters of new political careers short or long though they may prove to be.

Bullets for Beans ReiCh's Pr0ffer
 to Balkan States
By LOUIS A. MATZHOLD Associated Press, Foreign Staff


 VIENNA, July '. - Bullets for beans, tanks for tomatoes and planes for potatoes is the offer Germany is making to the farming countries in souteastern Europe
 Balkan States are glutted with farm products. Germany could use great quantities of his produce and, it is reliably understood, is prepared to pay for it in muni- tions
 Usual arrangements betwee n Nazidom and these Balkan States hitherto included payment half in cash and half in industrial prod ucts But due to a shortage of foreign exchange in Germany, the cash payments were slow.
 Germany Owes Big Sums
 The Reich at present owes Yugo- slavia about 22,000,000 marks for farm goods and ore; Bulgaria 600,- OO0,000 lewa; Rumania 100000, 900 lei; and considerable sums to Hun gary and Greece.
 AS the funds of the farm prod ucts export corporations in the Balkans are meager, no advance could be given to the farmers, and consequently there is great unrest in many rural districts.
 Protests from the Balkan States own industrialists and political pro- paganda against Germany added to the disquietude in financial circles and among the peasants and mer- chants of southern Europe.
 Schact On Pact Mission
 Germany, fearing that it may lose political prestige and trade in the Balkans, has therefore decided to start negotiations for new trade agreements with these countries. Dr. Hjalmur Schacht, the German financial wizard, recently visited some Balkan countries for this pur- pose.
 In Yugoslav diplomatic circles it was said Germany now seeks to take advantage of the present de- sire in the Balkans for more arma rnantS and thot Raiobcfua17rar Hit Ter is willing to pay old debts with outmoded planes and munitions.
 But under the proposed new trade and political agreements, Germany is said to be ready to exchange al- most any amount of modern tanks artillery, airplanes and the like, for badly-needed flour, vegetables and meats.

Campaign Future Clouded ds Political Seers Ponder
 B0Lters' ssNuisance VaIue''
By BYRON PRICE (Chief of Bureau, The Associated Press. Washington

Pr6SS, WasningtOnD
 The June political festivities have left many questions unanswered. Plainly, a complicated campaign, involving possibilities difficult to forecast, lies ahead.
 A leadership greatly changed from that of other recent cam paign years has risen to power in both of the great parties. A new left wing party has appeared, and many are the realignments which contradict tradition and invite re- flection.
 At Cleveland the Republicans have undertaken a turning move ment intended to make the party more attractive to those Western clements who, for several years, have been complaining that the Republican management was too )bedient to the East.
 At Philadelphia the Democrats have undertaken to put a brake on radical inclinations, clearly hoping to convince the East that the Roosevelt Administration is safe" enough, and thus garner new East ern domains under the Democratic standard
 Yet Cleveland is followed by the  launching of the Union Party, led by nominal Republican from that same West which the Republican leaders were trying to please, and Philadelphia's hosannahs for the "safeness' of MT. Roosevelt are mingled with the footballs of East ern Democratic Walkers-out.
