SPAIN DEFIEs GERMANY.

PARIS, December 2S @.-The
Spanish government spiritedly defied
German demands today for the release
of the captured freighter Palos and
charged the ship was bearing contra
band of war to aid insurgent Fascists.
Resisting both threats Of German
action and diplomatic pressure from
other nations desiring to calm the
crisis, the Basque Nationalists an
nounced through the Spanish En-
bassy:
There Is no question Of releasing
the Palos."
The French government. fearing
the incident would upset its efforts
to enforce neutrality in the civil war,
summoned the Council Of Ministers to
meet tomorrow.

Nevertheless, the Germans again
contended, Soviet Russian collections
to assist the Spanish Socialists con-
tinueo.
Der Fuehrer, among his inner cir
Gle of advisers, often has repeated that
Germany must try to come to some
arrangement with Britain-cost what
it may.
Hence. although the volunteers may
well continue from Germany to Spain,
informed persons believed Hitler had
no desire to risk losing British SYM
pathies for good by going to war on
Madrid with regular soldiers and war;
ship guns.
A definite announcement .on naval

Francisco Franco, the insurgent die
tatordesignate in Spain. without act
ually declaring war. Gen. Wilhelm
Faupel, the German charge d'affairs
to Fascist Spain, is credited with q
major role.
With true Prussian devotion to duty,
Gen. Faupel decided to be his own
courier and bring important informa-
ton personally to Berlin.
His decision was made, it was dis
closed, after a German Lufthansa
plane carrying an extensive report to
Berlin on the Spanish situation
crashed near Annecy, in the Alps, on
December T.
Since his recent arrival here, Gen.
Faupel has been in almost continuous
conference with the German general
staff. Especially, it was said. he
stressed the dearth Of non commits
stoned officers in Frances insurgent
army.
Meanwhile Germany formally gave
the Spanish Socialists just a day to
free the captured Palos. The extern
sion of the German ultimatum to in
clude today came after an official
spokesman had declared
I'VE are awaiting the Madrid gov
ernment's next move"
Earlier it was announced "neces-
sary measures for obtaining the re-
lease of the steamer have been taken. +"
Chancellor Hitler was at his holi-
day retreat Of Berchtesgaden in Ba-
varia when the British and French
Ambassadors paid Sunday call to
the foreign Office with notes de-
manding q halt of volunteers for
the Spanish insurgents
The notes caused speculation on
possible colonial and economic con-
cessions for Germany If she would

clared.
In authoritative quarters the plan
was described as scrapping all pre-
vious efforts Of the International Non-
Intervention Committee and making .
new start to Isolate the Spanish con-
fiict.
Earlier hope was held in the for
eign Offices Of Europes great powers
for diplomatic solution to the threat
ened spread of the Spanish civil war
through German Intervention.
The continent focused its attention
on snow-covered Berchtesgaden in
Bavaria, where Adolf Hitler pondered
problems which may decide the ques-
ton Of peace or war for Europe.
Firm refusal of the Spanish So
cialist government to heed . German
ultimatum to free the captured
steamer Palos in the face Of Nazi
threats of "reprisals" was believed to
have placed the immediate decision
of backing the insurgents to the limit
up to Hitler.
Adding to to the seriousness of the
question were the reported demands
of the Fascist leader, Gen. Francisco
Franco. for $4,000 troops to aid his
drive on Madrid
But France and England hoped

NAUCATUCK SET FOR CROSBY NINE.
High School Rivals at Hamilton Park TOnOr.
 row; New City Taken

Naugatuck, May ls--With its posi- ton at the top of the Naugatuck Valley league more secure, the Naugatuck High school baseball nine prepared today to face Crosby High in Waterbury tomorrow. The locals won their fifth straight league game with no losses Saturday when they trimmed Torrington High here 6 to s. This was the second defeat Naugatuck has handed the New City five this season.
 Close Start
 The game, played at recreation field was Q good one and for 0 time, 1t looked as though the visitors would break the locals victory string. After Edmonds of the home team polled 0 homer in the first to give the Garnet i-0 lead, Tor- rington rattled three hits of Nolan in the third and Began replaced the starting pitcher for Naugatuck. Torrington tailed four runs in this inning, but the Garnet came back strong in the fourth to drive Dris- coll, Torrington's starting twirler, from the mound, and some three times to knot the count at four-ail.
 Sewed It Up.
 Naugatuck put the game on ice with c four-run barrage in the sixth and although the visitors tailed one run in the seventh, Began with good support from his mates, was never in danger of losing the battle.

ANOTHER MOUND MAN NEEDED BY BOSTON RED SOX
Grove Only Dependable Starting Pitcher on
 Staff

Boston, May 18-(UP)-The gold- plated Boston Red Sox were on the trail of another first class pitcher today, as old dependable Lefty Grove, mainstay of the staff, pre- pared to face the Chicago White Sox in quest of his seventh vic- tory.
 Owner Tom Yawkey-whose mul- ti-million-dollar purse must have a zipper on it-joined the club in Chi cago last night to iron out pitch ing difticulties with Manager Joe Cronin. Cronin admitted to news men that a new pitcher was wanted, but had no report of progress to make.
 Four Pitchers
 The need for added pitching strength became increasingly ap- parent over the week. end, and yes- terday four hurlers paraded across the mound before late-inning hon- CTS pulled the game out of the fire. Johnny Marcum was credited with victory, pitching hitless ball in the final two innings after Jim Henry, Fritz Ostermueller and Jack Wilson had proved ineffective.
 The home runs that turned de- feat into victory were Billy Wer- ber's eighth ming and Rick Fer rell's ninth inning clouts. Both came with none aboard, and turned 8 7-6 deficit to an 8-7 lead. Ferrell's homer, his fourth of the season, came after he tried to bunt and failed.
 Today's game, Groves eighth start, was expected to prove a pitch ing duel, with Vernon Kennedy op- posing the southpaw ace. Kennedy turned in the seasons only no-hit game last year, and has two vic- tories and one defeat this spring. Meanwhile, in Boston the Bees prepared to open their series with the league champion Chicago Cubs, after rain had prevented yesterdays opener. The weather was a tough blow to President Bob Quinn, who, with his club fighting for a first di- vision berth. had visions of a 25,000 Sunday crowd.
 Promising
 Slugging Wally Berger, in a slump all season, was to rejoin the lineup today, and Manager Bill McKechnie was optimistic that the homerun hitter's layof would im- prove his batting form.
 Danny MacFayden was to pitch for the Bees today, being opposed by Tex Carleton. This sets the stage for a pitching duel between Ray Benge and Lon Warneke tomorrow.
 The Bees pitching strength, 8 problem all season, was looking up today, with news that Johnny Babich was again available. Babich had been under treatment in Chi cago for sore shoulder. Manager McKechnie announced Ben Can't well would continue as relief hurler, now that Jim Chaplin, rookie right handler, was pitching well as @ starter.

TERRY, MATES BEGIN BID FOR
 LEAGUE LEAD
St. Louis Cardinals Ens gage Giants - Yanks
 Beat Ex-Mate Allen
By LESLIE AVERY

 I United Press Stan COrrespOndent)
 New York, May 1S.-UP)-The New York Giants went after the St. Louis Cardinals National League leadership today with seven-garne winning streak-the seasons longest --powering their drive.
 The New Workers haven't lost a game since May 9, when they were knocked over by the Philadelphia Phillies. That was the day that Manager Bill Terry injected himself into the Giant lineup to replace Sam Leslie at first base. Terry has hit safely in every game since and the Giants have won two from the Phils, two from the Chicago Cubs and pair from the Cincinnati Reds. Yesterday Terry let Leslie go back to his position and directed the Giants to win over the Pitts burgh Pirates from the coaching line.
 Surprising
 The peculiar thing about the Terrymen's winning streak is the fact that they have been out-hit. The Giants hit safely but 70 times in winning their last seven games, while their opponents drove out 71. However, Giant hitting was more timely, as evidenced by the A runs they manufactured, compared to opponents 27.
 Clyde Castleman, who won 15 games while losing for the Giants last year, finally broke into the 1886 win column yesterday as New York defeated Pittsburgh. He pitched only 2-3 innigs, but he was on the mound when the Giants three-ruf1 burst in the fifth clinched victory. Doubles by Mancuso and Jo-Jo Moore drove 'n the three markers. Bartell homered for New York and Vaughan for Pittsburgh.
 The victory enabled the Giants to keep within 8 half game of the leading Cardinals, who pounded out a 10 to decision over the Phillies to give Dizzy Dean his fifth victory of the year. Diz gave up only six hits. Joe Medwick's homer, two tri- pies, and a single led the Cards l4- hit attack. Pepper Martin also clouted a four-bagger for St. Louis and Camilli hit one for Philadelphia.
 Brooklyn's daffy Dodgers banged out a dozen hits but let Il men stranded on the base paths and lost to the Cincinnati Reds, 3-2.
 Chicago at Boston was rained out.
 Sudden Spurt
 In the American, the leading New York Yankees were held ScoreleSs five innings by thetr old teammate, Johnny Allen, but in the sixth they unleased six hit attack good for five runs, and went on to defeat the Cleveland Indians, 8 to 1. It was Lefty Gomez's fifth victory.
 Rick Ferrel's ninth inning homer gave the second place Boston Red Sox 8 to 2 decision over the Cleve- land Indians.
 The Detroit Tigers won eut by the same margin, 8 to 2, over the Wash- ington Senators. as 8 result of a two run rally in the ninth.
 St. Louis Browns won out over the Philadelphia Athletics, 8 to 5, as Elon Hogsett, recently acquired from Detroit, became one of the few Brownie pitchers to go the full route this season.
