~ DETROlT-The Tigers have been
socked hard by injuries. They have
lost at least four games which prob
ably could have been won with Hank

most opponents continue to believe the

that the arms of Lon Warneke and
Curt Davis have not been improved by

championship class. But, at least, they
should continue better than the White

BOSTON-Maybe Grove and Terrell
can carry the Red Sox pitching burden
all the way to the wire. American
league athletes do not think so, and
neither do they believe that the club
has enough consistent power to make
up for occasional sloppy defensive days.
Luck and Tony Cuccinello have kept
the Bees up so far. Still they seem
destined for last place, though.
GIANTS-Another team which might

only a new starting hurIer or a top

use another pitcher and better reserves.
The American league entry is by no
means as bad as the standings indicate.

had lovely hands, beautifully shaped

Agnes had inherited. Her skin,

with her in his arms and took a step

NEW COMPLAINT IS FILED IN FISH
 CONCERN CASE
Old Charge Is Dismissed Against California Pack
 ing Corp, Alaska Firm

WASHINGTON, April 30. = For want of jurisdiction the Federal Trade Commission has dismissed the old complaint against the Cali fornia Packing Corporation and substituted new complaint charg- ing it and the Alaska Packers As sociation, a subsidiary, with sup pressing competition and creating monopoly in the sale of food products. The dismissed complaint charged the company and three subsidiaries with restraint of trade and a tendency toward monopoly in the San Francisco Bay area.
 Announcement of the action said:
 The California Packing Corpora tion and the Alaska Packers Asso- citation are alleged to have eX- ecuted a plan using its great buy ing in steamer freight tonnage and undue influence in touring Of ton mage by other shippers through the Encinal Terminals in Alameda, con- trolled by the packing corporation.
 "The new complaint charges the respondents with preying on busi- ness of competitors by obtaining from the Encinal Terminals the names and addresses of customers of such competitors to enable the corporate respondents to bring pres sure and influence to bear on these customers to divert their shipments of products purchased from com petitors through the Encinal Term inals. The respondents are alleged also to have induced and compelled competitors to divert shipments so as to utilize the Encinal Terminals by bringing undue pressure to bear on industrial concerns from which such competitors purchased raw materials and manufactured arti- cles."
 The individual respondents nam ed in the new complaint include L. E. Wood, A. M. Lester, w. H. Levy, A. K. Tichenor, H. E. Van Horn, Irving F. Lyons, all officers or former officials of the two cor porations.
