at short. Bluege, for instance, was a
tremendous help to Peckinpaugh, and
later, to Cronin. All good third base
men make shortstops better. Going
to the left was the biggest fault I
ever found with Travis on third. He
made it hard on our shortstops. but
must say one thing. and that is
Travis is 100 per cent better on
grounders to his left as shortstop." ;"

switchboard was kept busy answering
inquiries as to whether Estalella was
going to play that afternoon.
Bobby, with his incoherent jabber-
ing, natural color and amazing batting
power, was the fair-haired boy, and
when Lewis was given his trial on
third base he was treated with a
monumental indifference. He was
run down, physically, to begin with,
and when Harris noted the coldness
of Capital fans he wisely waited until
the club was on the road before again
looking over Lewis.
But this season, on the road or at

N Davis Cup hopes of Wilmer
VI Hines and Henry Culley, rated
4 the third best doubles combi-
nation in American tennis, were some
what in the air today after their quest
of the national indoor championship
had failed
They were eliminated from the
tournament late Saturday night by
Sweden's Karle Schroeder and Gilbert
Hall of South Orange, N. j., in one OF
the most surprising developments of
the championship.
Schroeder and Hall clearly outplayed
their highly fancied opponents and
qualified to meet tonight the newly
formed team of Johnny Van Ryn, vet
eran international doubles player, and
Gregory Mangin, the indoor singles
titlist.
Hines Strong Again.
A THOUGH Hines defaulted his
singles semi-flnal engagement
with Mangin Saturday afternoon,
owing to a sore throat and fever, he
said. of 1903, he showed no signs of the
illness during the match and offered
no alibis for his teams defeat.
Even in defeat, Hines and Culleys
fighting spirit and closely knit team
work made a deep impression on Wal
ter Merrill Hall. president of the
United States Lawn Tennis Associa-
ton, and Davis Cup officials. But they
gave the impression that Hines and
Culley may have to wait another year
before they are given chance in cup
competition, although it is likely they'll
be invited to participate in the Amer
lean team tryouts in May.
Preceding the doubles finals tonight
will be a best two out of three sets
contest between former Champion
Norma Taubele and Mrs. John Van

THE CoUGHLIN-o'CoNNoR CLASH

The radio attack on Congressman John j. O'Connor
of New York, by Father Charles Coughn, of Royal Oak
Michigan, has set off plenty of verbal fireworks
In his TRADE, the Radio Priest referred to the Con-
gresham servant of the money changers and de-
cared that chairman of the powerful Rules Committee
of Congress- Mr. OConnor had blocked the passage the
Frazier-Lemke Farm Mortgage bill, and had tried to
tap" the U S. Treasury for large sum of money
Mr.. OConnor, in his prompt reply, denied the
charges and threatened to kick the Priest the capitol
to the White House. if the latter should dare come
Washington, but he later apoogzed.
If Father Coughlin should accept the challenge and
go to Washington and if Mr. OConnor should attempt
put threat effect there would probably be "a hot
time in the old town. when the two opponents met The
Congressman a midde-weight prize-fghter,
while the Priest was a football star and outstanding

proposals to amend the city char

that is proposing the change in

Iteration we are now recommend
ng and urging the colored citizens
of Hamtramck to Vote No on the
proposed amendments.
We base our conclusion on the
act that the charter as it now
stands does not have clauses which
would tend TO slow the progress of
he race in Hamtramck. To change
the charter such clauses might be
inserted, causing unwarranted

The charter amendments were
proposed by a group OF white citi-
zens who are known as the Tax
payers Association. There are no
members of the race in this orga-
nization, although the colored citi-
zens are the second largest voting
group and a great many Of them
are taxpayers in the city.
II you are interested in good
government and the protection of

IN the amendments on March 4th.
However, do not mistake our at
titude. We do not doubt the sinceri-
ty of the Taxpayers Association in

they believe will better the condi-
ton of the city, but we are a bit
skeptical about supporting mea-
