By LESLIE AVERY

United Press Stan COrFeapondent1
 New York, May 26.-(Up) 1.-Two new records were written into American League books today and beside each entry stood the name of Tony Lazzeri New York Yankea second basemal, who was tagged washed up" by the baseball scrihea when the 1886 season started.
 The 32-year-old Italian whom tho Yankees bought from the San Fran- cisco Seals in 1925 for S75,OOO. banged out three home runs and c triple, driving Il runs across the plat, to break the record of nine for the junior circut, established by Jimmy Foxx in 1929. Sunny" Jim Bottomley set the world record Of 12 runs in the season of 1924.
 Lazzeri also hit three cirCuib blows in @ double-header Saturday, bringing his total to six for three games and breaking the major league record of five held jointly by Babe Ruth, Chuck Klein, Jimmy Foxx and a half dozen others.
 The other two members of tho Italian trio that San Francisco has sent to the Tanks, also had a good hand in New York's 25 to 2 Snas- sacre of Connie Mack's Philadelphia Athletics. Frank Crosetti slammed two home runs, and Joe Di Maggie. playing his first season in Q Yankee uniform hit one in addition to a double and a single. Including Lag zeri's II the trio batted in 17 runs. Monte Pearson, who held the As Co seven hits, drove in two of the Tank scores with three singles. New York added 19 hits to 16 bases on balls in amassing their huge total.
 It was 8 day of huge scoring in both leagues, however, with tho majority of victories being decided by seven and eight run margins.
 The second place Boston Red Sox were swamped 12 to 1 under bare rage of 16 base hits by the Washing ton Senators. Buddy Lewis, 10-year- old rookie third baseman, led tho onslaught with a homer, triple and two singles.
 A two hit masterpiece hurled by Lloyd Brown enabled the Cleveland Indians to shut out the Detroit Ti@ gers 2 to 0. Trosky's homer was ono of the Indians dozen safeties that sent Schoolboy Rowe to the showers.
 Chicago's White Sox won from tho St. Louis Brown 2 to when Luke Sewell hit Q four-bagger in the ninth with Q mate aboard to break Q 6-5 deadlock.
 Leroy Parmelee came through with a five-hit performance as tho St. Louis Cardinals defeated the Chicago Cubs, 2 to l, to hold on to their first place position in the Ma tional League.
 The New York Giants battered the Philadelphia Phillies unmerci- fully, ringing Up 21 hits to win 13 to 6. Sam Leslie showed the way with Q homer, triple, double and two singles for Q perfect day at bat.
 A l2 to decision over the Pitts- burgh Pirates by the Cincinnati Reds pushed the Reds into Q three- way tic for third place with tho Cubs and the Pirates. All have Q percentage of .600.
 Van Mungo was in form, gcatter- ing seven hits to the Boston Bees as the Brooklyn Dodgers won II to 2.

ISV0TED FOR

Congress yesterday handed Pres
ident Roosevelt another blank
check for the expenditure of 1925
million dollars for unemployment
relief in the year beginning
July. l.
The Senate accepted the House
approved conference report on
the relief deficiency bill, carrying
total appropriations of 2,375 mil
lion dollars, and sent it to the
White House for the Presidents
signature, along with the 100 mil
lion dollar annual supply bill for
the Interior Department.
IckeS Gets Fund
In finally approving the relief
deficiency bill, the Senate &C
cepted House provisions alloCat-
ing 800 million dollars for the
continuance of the Public Works
Administrator under Secretary
Ickes.
This action was opposed by
President Roosevelt, who had
urged that the entire 1,425 mil
lion dollar relief fund be placed
under Works Progress Admins
traitor Harry L. Hopkins. Instead
a Senate provision putting the
funds directly in the hands OF
the President was approved.
The Senate reCeded also on
10-million-dollar ALLEGATION for the
Florida ship canal and two dams
on the Tennessee Valley projects
at GilbertSville, KY, and Watts
Bar, Tenn. Death of Senator
Duncan U. Fletcher, of Florida,

would place the discussion Of vital
political and national issues on the
basis of dramatic license rather than
upon o basis Of responsibly stated

For the reasons stated above we
must decline to accept the dramatized

which both c. b. 8. and N. B. c.

However, It became known today
that the controversy began last De.

"This Is TO advise you that II Is

lar party conventions next Summer.
We are leaving to the judgment of
the managers Of those few stations We
own the question Of whether or not
they will sell time for political broad
casting before the conventions to To-
cal and State committees.
Dramatizations Barred.
I'VE will not allow dramatization
of political issues If time Is bought
after the conventions. We believe that
the dramatic method by its very ma
ture would tend to over emphasize in
cidents of minor importance and sig
nificance. simply because Of the dra-
matte value .. The turn of ma

skill of warning dramatists rather
than on the merits of the issue de.
bated."
