WEEK DAY LEAGUE MINES FACE BIG 36-GAM1
Police Meet
Treasury
Today
BY SID KATZNELL

Beginning with today, SO games
will be played in the weekday
baseball leagues this week.
Today's feature brings together
the Metropolitan Police and
Treasury at o'clock on the
South Ellipse. 1t IS an United
States Government League game.
If the pitching caliber can be
taken as a criterion, then the
contest should be a hurlers' duel,
because both teams are sending
their ace of aces to the hill. The
veteran Lem owen, though in
his early fortieS, but one Of the
most-feared moundSmen on the
sandlotS, will take care Of the
heaving for Treasury. Frank
Watt, who was good enough to
play three years in the National
League, will oppose him.

finds Old Milwaukee meeting

Hollywood, July 17-UP)-An- drea Leeds, a pretty girl just out Of college, who aspires to a role in the movie, Come and Get It." is the new kiss champion of Hollywood.
 Three men, working in shifts, irI1- planted 467 kisses on her cupid-bow lips, all for the sake of art as 1t is known in Hollywood.
 Francis x. Shields, the former ten- his champion turned actor; Bob Lowrey, stage juvenile; and John Payne, recent recruit from the New York stage, were the kissers er1- ployed to determine how Miss Leeds acquitted herself in a love scene.
 From a. m. until noon, Shields performed his part in the kissing bee. Without pausing for lunch. Miss Leeds accepted Lowrey's kisses until 3 D. m. and from then on un- til G. Payne showed her how he could kiss. Director Howard Hawks finally decided that was enough kissing for one work-day and called halt.

 The president was at the helm of the Sewanna on Q run across the Bay of Fuhdy which took much longer than had been expected, When he left Seal Harbor, Me, yes- terday morning, he expected to reach the vicinity of Cape Sable, Nova Scotia, in about l2 hours. But at s:A5 6. Tl., EDT, today, after 3! hours sailing, the Sewanna still was about 26 miles from its immediate goal.
 The wind died down almost en- tirely during the night, and the Savanna rolled with heavy ground swell though the weather was fair. This morning Q light breeze came up and the yacht was able to make headway slowly in Q moderate sea.
 The temperature was around 50 last night and all hands on accom- panying craft slept under blankets.

 "Doris: What shall we call him? MT. Washington?
 "Ted: (urgently): No. No. When British general sent him a message Addressed to MT. Washington un- der the flag of truce, he said: That must be some planter there Is no such person here.

 "Ted: The British general took the hint and sent him another note in half an hour addressed to His Excellency, Gen. George Washing ton.'
 "Betty: Then we'll call him your excellency.

 Jack: You would want to know that.
 "Doris: Why notp Don't you know the poem, Wives of Great Men All Remind Us?
