Samuel L. Frooks, New York
lawyer who is on trial with Mrs.
Krieger on charges of blackmail
in connection with Mrs. Krieger's
claim that Carroll Pierce, late
Alexandria banker, had broken a
contract to give her lifetime en-
ployment in his bank, underwent
a severe cross-examination at the
conclusion of Representative Cart

Lawyers Tilt
Frequent objections on the part
of Defense Attorneys John j. Nc
Ginness and william R. Berkson
interrupted the examination, and
verbal tits between counsel caused
Justice F.. Dickinson Let's to inter
vene several times.
Garrett attempted to show that
FrookS handled cases of this kind
on several occasions in the past
and made frequent reference to a
stenographic transcript made OF
conferences between Frooks and
Pierce's attorney after dicta-
phone had been planted in their
hotel conference room. These refer
ences were made to impeach
Frooks' earlier testimony to the
effect that he did not know how
many times Mrs. Krieger and
Pierce had been in each others
company on social occasions.

1 the team before the season is con- cluded, and may, in fact, be able tc catch again next year. ...
 Mickey Himself Had Despaired
 Mickey, of course" says Spike as the boys called him down in Georgetown few years back when he was manager of the golf and tennis teams, Mickey himself thought that he would never be able to manage and play again. Only short while ago he was satisfied just to live. All he asked of life was his next breath.
 "He was really that low-mental- ly and physically. And he meant it from the bottom of his sick heart when he said fiatly that he would never attempt to play again and might even retired altogether.
 But Mickey, like all of us, failed to figure on that big heart of his. guess you can compare life to a ball game and Mike was never one to say die in c game until the last man was out, and 1t so happened that in this particular game Mike was playing he was the last man and he wasn't going to let them get him out.
 "will he play again9 Well, frank. ly, don't think so. The Detroit ball club won't ask him to. Mickey Cochrane always has job with the Tigers if he never throws c baseball or dons Q pair of spiked shoes oi never goes to the ball park again
 "If 1t was me you'd never get me up to that dish again. I'd be satis' fled to sit back and manage. And Mickey doesn't even have to manage the team if he doesn't feel like 1t.
 But, seeing how he's coming along now and itching to get back in the thick of things, I have nc doubt he'll be on the bench in a short time, root,' the boys in" Mickey Would Be Inspiration
 Young MT. Briggs, who refuses tc concede the putt to the Yankees and still thinks the Tigers are still very much in the thick of the fray, has an idea that if Mickey gets back in time the Detroiters will stage a hair-raising stretch drive to win the pennant.
 If we can only stay tip there close to those Yankees until the day Mickey returns" says Spike. T think we can win"
 It's good reasoning. The sight of Gir MiQiiel will be A terrific inAnira- . ton to those Tigers. The day he walks into that Tiger clubhouse and says, "Well, gang, let's 90 and get 'em," they'll be c heli-bent, hell- or.leather bunch of hombres. Give those Tigers e month of MsnAsey cabling, Mickey scolding, Mickey hollering, and 1t will be quite c task trying to hold that Tigah. ..
 "Yes, sir" says Spike, the day Mike comes back-watch lis go from there.
 .But you can be sure Mickey won't be there until the doctor says it's okay. We need Mickey---need him badly this year. But we need him for years to come"
 Yes, and basebali--in fact, ali business --needs more synnpethetic bosses like young Spike Briggs Up there at tl.e plate batting for the boys who work for him.

CRIMES GRABBED PRIZE PACKAGE
Vet, Believed "Washed Up," Won Game With
 Home Run
By GEORGE KIRKsEY

United Press Stan COrrespOndent)
 New York, July 14-(UP)--Mana- ger Burleigh Grimes grabbed the brass ring of the major league merry-go-round last winter when he picked up Heinie Manush as free agent and signed him to play in the Brooklyn Dodger outneld.
 The veteran American leaguer, who clouted the ball at a .331 clip in IA seasons with Detroit, St. Louis, Washington and Boston, had a bad string of injuries last year, and just couldn't seem to get going. He bat- ted only .291 which just wasn't enough to hold him 6 berth on Tom Yawkey's all-star aggregation. The Red Sox asked waivers on the 35 year old Alabama born player at the winter major league meeting.
 An American league manager wouldn't look at Manush, convinced that his active playing days were few. It didn't cost Grimes 8 dime to sign Manush, and several of the junior loop managers must be kick ing themselves today because old Heinie again is smacking the ball around .335.
 There is nothing like a home run with the score tied in the ninth to make a hero out of ballplayer, and that is exactly what Manush did yesterday to install himself even more solidly as the idol of the Brooklyn bleacherites.
 It was @ duel between Max Butch CT and Frank Gabler of the Boston Bees. A triple by Fletcher, and Garms' single sent the Beantowners into the lead in the third inning, but the Dodgers got that one back in the fifth when Stripp doubled, raced to third on an infield out and tailed on Butchers long fly.
 Each pitcher had given up but five hits when the ninth inning came around with the score tied 1-1. Hassett drove a long fly to Johnson who made a sensational catch, then Heinie came through and smacked his winning homer.
 Tn the only other National league games the New York Giants staged six-run rally in the nintht to tie the score, then tailed once more in the 10th to defeat the Phila- delphia Phillies, 11-10. Claude Pas- seau went into the ninth holding Q 10-40 lead, but the Giants pound- ed him for five singles and three runs before Johnson came to the rescue. Mel Ott sent Johnson to the showers with two-bagger scor- ing Joe Moore. Theyl got two more off Mulcahy and Lou Chiozza opened the 10th with a double, was sacrificed to second, and came home with the winner on Moore's fifth hit of the game, 6 single tc right.

Detroit July l4.-Don't be sur- prised if some afternoon in the near future you should sec and hear q fiery fellow on the Detroit Tigers bench who puts you in mind of Mickey Cochrane.
 Don't be surprised for 1t will be Sir Miguel himself, roofing them babies home.
 You see, Sir Miguel, who was at deaths door so long they thought he was the door mat, has risen up, tossed the lily away, shaken the dust from his gallant frame, spat on his hands, and shouted femme at 'en, Spike, old boy, femme at 'em.
 Spike is Walter o. Briggs, Jr.. son of the automobile body building owner of the Tigers and to all in- tents and purposes the real boss of the Detroiters.
 According to the young MT. Briggs, Sir Miguel is not quite ready yet, but he's rarin' to go.
 His recovery has been so rapid in the last couple of weeks that Mickey undoubtedly will be able to rejoin

NEWS MODES S-- Men Get Tied to Jewelry
BY WALTER c. PARKES

NEA Service Staff Correspondent
 New York.-Having become more definitely linked to style than for many years, mems jewelry is espe- cially significant as a summer acc cessory. Soft collars, mostly re- quiring collar pins, predominate. Vests are marooned in closets, SO tie clasps glearn in the summer sun. French cuffed shirts, requiring cuff links, are high in popular favor.
 Tn fact, so jewelry-consc have men become that they have recalled some long-banished favcrites such as stickpins, monogrammed belt watch chains, and, 1t is reported from London, even the old-fash- toned silk ribbon watch fob with gold signet pendant.
 Naturally, the renewed interest in jewelry has brought some complete ly new ideas and novel variations of old ones. A brand new tie-con- trol gadget looks like Q stick-pin worn on the lower part of the tie. The pin part however, is very short and fastens at the back into an old fashioned stick-pin guard, which in turn is held to the tie by 6 short chain and alligator grip bar. Sounds complicated, but it's really simple to adjust.
 Chained Initials Stagger
 Straight bar clips for ties, plain, with initials or sporting motifs are very popular. A new one for the hunting fan is in the shape of Q rifle. Tie chains are well-liked, too. A new conceit in the initialed ones Is to have the letters staggered. The great popularity of bowling as a sport has brought out 6 tie chain featuring crossed tenpins and ball. There is also one with bucking bronco and rider, not that bronco busting Is yet @ popular sport.
 The plain gold safety-pin is very popular for fastening collars and is even used by some men to anchor the ends of their neckties. The new- est clip collar bars have tiny figures at either end. There are minia- ture modernistic Scotties, horses heads and modernistic abstract de- signs.
 Where a man once owned "a" pair of cuff-links, he may now have Q dozen, to match up in color and character with his shirts. Some with semi-precious gems or simu- lated jewels are quite dressy, while others, such as the smart flat leather ones, are obviously for sport. Most modern cuff-links feature the air. plane shank for easy insertion, and an improvement has been made even on that, in a new link that has the shank elbow-shaped. These are said to be even easier to insert and will hold the cuffs more snugly. An exception to the rule of airplane type shanks is the new cuff-link made up of your initials linked to- gether. The gold-finished letters are long, narrow, modernistic ones.
 Eull-Whips for Keys
 Other important cuff-link ideas include horse heads sculptured of white or brown ivory-like plastic, narrow oblongs to semi-precious stones mounted on gold plate, henn- spheres or semi-precious stones and realistic animal figures modelled directly from grand champions.
