lur on the other teams In the event.
We were next to meet our chief rivals,
the team which had rs members some
CT the best known players In the east.
ande the one which We would have 70
beat II We were to win the title.
The first crucial match was today's
hand. Although the slam is . lay
down, the only loser being one trick
In clubs, 1t was not bid against our
partners and the result WAS Z swing
OF 750 points In our favor. We were
playing . total point match.
When my partner bid four hearts,
I stopped to consider that he had
alone bid to game, q every one Of
MY responses was forced. Since ! had
a five-card suit and the king Of dia-
nonds (the king Of clubs appeared
worthless under the vulnerable club
bidder), I made one free bid and Of
course my partner accepted the slam
invitation. The contract was made,
giving us the swing Of 750 points.

ity OF giving tax revision the right
ci-way at the regular session convsn-
ing In January.
Recommendation for giving single
federal agency power to adjust and
stabilize the value Of the dollar" came
from the senate agriculture committee
IN its report on the ''ever-normal
granary" bill.
Asserting that the fluctuating value
OF the currency as well as crop pro-
duction affected farm income, the
committee report suggested:
The present price level lis too low
and should be raised to at least the
1926 levels.''
The senate committee report was
made public just as the house agricul-
ture committee formally approved a
new crop control bill, by a IS to vote,
ard prepared to start debate on the
house floor Monday.
Penalties Criticized
Penalty provisions in the proposed
crop control bill drew bipartisan crit
icism during senate debate on the
measure.
Senator Vandenberg CRep., Micho
termed unfair" the proposed 500 fine
on farmers failing to make required
reports In connection with marketing
quotas. Senator Burke Dem., Neb.)
agreed with the criticism.
Senator Pope (Dem., Idaho) CO.
author Of the legislation, told critics
Of the provision he would join them
In urging q mobilization Of the pen
atty clause so farmers "innocently"
falling to make required reports
would not be subject to criminal prose-
cution.
Meanwhile President William Gre IN
Ct the American Federation Of Labor
suggested that reduction Of real es-
tate taxes-rather than labor costs
would be the most effective meth..d
o. stimulating kome ownership.
Asks Coordination
Green proposed that the admins
tration sponsor m interstate program
to coordinate ways Of tightening the
tax load.
Both Green and another AFL exec.
utive objected to the idea Of guarao-
teeing building trades workmen a
steady annual wage. In lieu Of high
hourly rates with no certainty u
working more than few weeks at
time. This proposal was made at q
recent White House conference.
One proposal favored by Mr.. Roose-
welt would make 1t possible for the
Federal Housing Administration to
finance q 5000 home for q family
head who had as little as $500 on hand.
Repayment Of principal and interest
would run in the neighborhood Of $50
. month.

Sunday Bowling
Deemed Boon
To Game
By SID KATZNELL

Little did President Roosevelt
realize that when he signed the
bowling bill yesterday legalizing
Sunday bowling in Washington
that he made more than 10000
people happy as a lark.
Both bowlers and operators are
jubllant in their reactions.
Sunday bowling will give a
lot Of bOwlerS chance to bowl
who do not have a chance during
weekdays Perce Elicit, Wash.
ingtOn City Duckpin Association
president points out, "and that
is q boost for the game. Alley
operators, too, will have seven
day play and will be able to
use the profits to give the public
better service"
George Lincoln Isemann, execu-
tive secretary of the National
Duckpin Bowling Congress:
cit will undoubtedly revolu-
tiOnize the game here, since it
will afford the alleys Oppor-
tunity to hold special matches
and sweepstakes that have
played a greater part in booming
the game in other sections"
Bill Wood, manager of Lucky
Strike Alleys:
at is q boon for the game"
Wood, who is president Of the
Washington Bowling Alley Opera
tors Association, played a promi-
nent part in having the bill passed.
Charles Bell, manager Of Con-
vention Hall:
For years Washington has
been the duckpin center Of the
country, and with the innOva-
ton of Sunday bowling Wash
ingtOn will even reach greater
heights"
Ollie Pacini, manager of TEN.
pie Alleys:
Now that Sunday bowling
has been legalized look for
several strong Sunday leagues
that will rival the District
League. Also Wasbingt"" will
be staging tOp-nOtch sweep
stakes on Sunday"
The Washington times., 1937-04-15

This marionette of a man, with
the mighty mentality, co-starred
with Judge Mahoney himself in
The Washington times., 1937-04-15

vi course, IL was only an eX-
hibition game, but that same arm
will make many another throw
like it this season. He will dis
courage any free traffic in extra
bases this season. He will cut
down runs, and runs win ball
games. This same Johnny Stone
did some great throwing two years
ago when he was out in right fielo.
He had as many assists in the out
field as the rest of the patrol corps
had together.
AS you thrill in the fine throw
ing of Stone and weigh his value
to the team for the season, the
great wisdom and the fortune of
the GriffS in obtaining AL Sim
mons become more and more ap-
parent.
Simmons definitely is a left
fielder, and while Stone is a jack
of-all-tradeS-or better to say, a
observation-disclosures the field,
he is at his best in right field.
Simmons, who already has thrown
out two runners at the plate, has
established the quality of his arm.
In center field we have Ben
Chapman, a fleet fielder with
deadly sure hands, and a high
powered throwing arm.
For all-around values you will
search far, and search in vain,
for a better outfield than this
trio.
Chapman continues to look
pathetic at the bat, but he is the
type of player that shows at best
advantage when the checks are
down. Chappie will hit just as
sure as the gong rings on Monday.
Fred Sington is making a truly
gallant fight for place on the reg
ular team. His hitting since Al
Simmons joined the team has
been powerful, and for distance.
He hit a ball over the left field
fence at Lakeland, and he cracked
one over the left field fence in
Gastonia that rivalled most of the
better home runs you've seen.
Simmons Under Weather
If Sington were more reliable
in the field he would have a far
better chance of making a regular
place. AS a case in point, there
was his throw to third base yes
terday; a futile attempt to head
of Garms while Vince Dundee
raced into second. His error in
strategy placed two runs in scor-
ing position, whereas if he had
thrown to second forthwith, only
one counter would have threat
ened. Cascarella pulled out Of the
hole, but that is beside the point.
Al Simmons was reported by the
strong, silent men of the club
house as still under the weather.
How far under the weather L
something of a mystery, but the
puisSant Pole did not play yester
day. He probably will not play to
day.

He instituted the "show cause"
action yesterday in order to stop
James j. Braddock from fighting
Joe Louis in Chicago on June %,
but so far the only disposition
seemed to be to stop the garden
from stopping Braddock.
Judge Fake, by his remarks from
the bench, clearly indicated that
the show cause" business seemed
strangely to be up to the Garden,
instead of Braddock, and, indeed,
there we're times when it looked as
though he meant to stop it in order
to save the old champion from
further punishment.
Instead, after three and one-half
hours of ceaSeless rhetoric, he
gave the Garden one week in
which to file further briefs, set

ChemegegdzoW, Etc.
Great Fighting Man
Works -Four Rounds

STONELAKE, Wis, April IS.
Rlood-curdling war whoops echoed
through the woods lining the
shores Of Lake sissabagama to-
day as Heavyweight Champion
Jimmy Braddock worked out for
his fight with Joe Louis at
Chicago.
Braddock was named Chief
ChemegegaZowehnene of the Chip
pewas by visiting Indians from
the Lac Court Errillis reservation.
The title means Great Fighting
Man" in tribal language.
For the benefit Of his visitors
Braddock put on gloves for the
first time since his arrival here
ii days ago and stepped four fast
rounds with Charley Massera and
Jack Mccarthy.
The Washington times., 1937-04-15

aside another week for the Mike
Jacobs side to file answers, and
then indicated that he would name
a date in May for the trial.
But before doing so, Judge Fake
seemed unfavorably impressed
with the Gardens attempt to
make the issue on the Braddock-
Baer contract Of 1885. instead Of
the Braddo Schmeling contracts,
calling for a fight here on June 3,
a fight which Braddock has com.
plicated considerably by indicat-
ing that he does not plan to at
tend. The Gardens insistence
upon the Baer papers, instead Of
those directly bearing upon the
Schmeling Braddock fight, was
due to the fact that practically all
it's legal strength seemed to repose
in the 1885 document.
Briefly, it reposed in two clauses
Of that document, calling for the
following:
1. That, If BraddOck beat
Baer for the title, he was to de-
fend it for the Garden before
September 30, 1886. Later, he
signed for Schmeling under
those terms, but finally got q
pOstpOnement to the June 3
date.)
2. That BraddOck, meantime,
was not to engage in any other
fight (barring Around exhibi-
tiOns) without the Gardens per.
mission.
"But why" Judge Fake
wanted to know at one point,
weren't these clauses carried
forward into the succeeding con-
tracts that Braddock signed for
Schmeling?" and at another
point: "Then there's nothing to
show that these clauses have
anything to do with the matter
before u.s." And at a third:
"What evidence have we that
BraddOck is repudiating the
Schmeling contract? The last
Schmeling contract he signed
before the Boxing COmmisSiOn)
doesn't say that he can't sign
for q fight after June 8.
The entire case, therefore, seemed
to hang upon the question of
whether the judge would permit
a contract with Baer to hold good
Tor contract with Schmeling and
one is constrained to add that,
without a doubt, the Garden
showed itself as surprisingly weak
in having to go all the way back
to 1885 for its strength.
Beyond a further doubt. Bar.
rister Merritt Lane, for Jacobs,
clearly out-jabbed the Gardens
George WhiteSide and got. the
newspaper decision. Barrister Lane
was an oral Freddie Welsh. He
had his left in the other mans
face all day and. when he crossed
with the Sunday punch, nobody
knew where it was going to land
next. Why, at one point, he had
Lillian Russell, Braddock, Annette
Kellerman and King Henry "
all mixed up in the issue and it
seemed only a question of time
until he called upon w. C. Fields.
