BOARD HANDICAPPED

Wilbur LaRoe, jr., chairman of
the District Parole Board, today
pointed to the attack On Miss Nc
MILAN as another instance of the
failure of District officials to
meet the problem of sex criminals.
While the law provides for a
pSychiatriSt at Lorton Reforma-
tory to study this type Of
offenders and report on them, no
pSychiatrist has been appointed,
he said, asserting the parole

ORGANIZED LABOR AND THEIR FRIENI
Inland Steel Signs
Pact Ending Strike

East Chicago, Indiana (ILNS)-
Inland Steel Corporation, smallest of
the independent steel companies
which refused to sign an agreement,
has changed its mind and signed an
agreement making the Steel Work
ers' organizing committee sole bar
gaining agents for its employees.
Twelve thousand men have gone back
to work, and from 500 to 1000 more
will be called back soon.
The men returning to their jobs
called the settlement the best one a
steel company ever signed" and urged
strikers at other plants to hold out
until they got the same terms. Actu-
ally, the agreement seems to be one
of the two standard forms, except
that grievances which cannot be set
tied between management and men
shall be referred to the Indiana state
commissioner of labor.

NAZIS DEAL
New Blows in Fight On
Churches

Washington, D. C. (ILNS)-Dis-
patches from Berlin give notice of
further steps by the Nazi government
in its quarrel with both Protestant
and Catholic churches.
A barrage of arrests of members of
the Prussian Confessional Synod has
been going on for weeks; and at the
latest event of this kind, twenty mem-
bers of the Nazi secret police broke
into church and took away eight of
the pastors present Announcement
has been made that II pastors will be
tried before a summary court for ''in-
citing disobedience'; which in this
case means preaching against the
Nazi proposal to rewrite the New
Testament.
Rev. Martin Niemoller in a speech
to congregation that left not even
standing room in the church said that
he was the only member of the Synod
within reach of the Nazis who had not
been arrested. The reason for his inn
munity is not known; for his crit
| icisms of Nazi rule are outspoken to
a degree.
Bavaria has announced that the
subsidies which it has paid to both
Protestant and Catholic churches will
be suspended. Of itself, this would
mean comparatively little; but it is
taken as sign that Bavaria, hitherto
more tolerant toward the churches
than the rest of the reich, is follow
ing the Hitler lead.

ARMSTRONG AND
 SPOLDI TO PUT. ON REAL FIGHT
COlOred ClOuter Slight Fa- vOrite to Take Italian
 Wing Star Friday

New York, March 16.--While To- cal fight fans are still discussing that little California whirlwind Henry Armstrong and his scnsa- tional four round knockout of Mike Belloise, they are still withholding final Judgment on the westerner un- til they SC him in action against Aldo Spodi, the Italian champion, at Madison Square Garden this coming Friday evening. They figure that the kid from the Pacific coast will find much bigger and strong CT opponent in the fast stepping Spoldi than was the game little Bell loise. Spoldi is good seeker and is a very strong man in the clinch- es. Together with that, he wil lhave q weight advantage of at least five pounds over the scrappy negro and that handicap might prove too much for the Los Angeles clubber.
 Black McGOvern?
 At any rate 1t figures to be one of the best fights of the year. Arm strong surely has lived up to al the big advance boosts that preceded his initial bow in the east and on his masterful showing against Balloise proved that he is one of the great est fighters in the land. Hailed as the Black Terry McGovern, his style recalls that famous Irishman when the Terrible Ono was knocking them bow-egged more than a quarter of a century ago.
 However, Spoldi must not be over- looked. He has fought the best lightweights in the country and the list included the great Pedro Mon- tanez, the Puerto Rican flash, to whom he blew duke after ten frri- ous rounds. Spoldi has tthousands of supporters who reagrd him as the best lightweight that ever came out of Italy.
 Spoldi will do all his training at the Pioneer gym, while Armstrong will make ready at Stillman's. Armstrong is favorite in the betting but the odds are very tight. Tick cts are on sale daily with prices ranging from $l to $5 plus the tax.

WRESTLING LIKED
 AT LOURDES HALL

Wrestlers were very active at Our Lady of Lourdes parish hall Friday evening. A grand show was put on by Luivio Bat" Bonaldi, the pro- moter. Wrestling is getting very popular witt the boys and Promo ter Bat" tries to make them as in- tcresting as possible.
 Here are some facts about the wrestlers who perform:
 Jimmie "CruSher" Coretta is @ "badman" of the mat. He likes to use rough tactics and holds which are not allowed to be used. He prefers to make his opponents say uncle" rather than to pin his shoulders to the mat.
 "Foots" Bonaldi is a brother of the promoter and a fine wrestler. He gets tired easily but finally gets his opponents shoulders pinned tightly to the mat.
 "Chic" Zabarro is another fine wrestler. Ee knows most of the good holds and likes to argue with the referee.
 "Babe Ginsburg" is a brother of "Crusher" Coretta. Flying tackles and footholds are his favorites. "Babe" likes to fight after the bout has ended.
 Gino Cosimano is also a fine wrestler and although he loses most Of his bouts, he always puts on e good show.
 The results of Friday nights bat- ties: In the first bout Jimmy "Crusher' Coretta fiatened "Babe dinsburg". and in the main bout Oi the evening. Frankie ''W0ots" Bon- aIdi pinned "ChicY Zabarro in two straight falls. The referee was "Bat' Bonaidi.

United Press Staff Correspondent
 Rowe, Massp March 16.-tUP)- A lot of "Caseys" have struck out since the foregoing lines were penned-but the man who claim. to have written them a half-cen. tury ago is still "at bat" and stil as keenly interested in the nat!ona pastime as when baseball's immorta ballad was authored.
 We give you George Whitefield Casey at the Ba0 D'vys, whc celebrates his 77th birthday anni- versary today.
 A lonely little figure in whose cars once rang the tumult and the shouting of the crowd, the white haired D'vys is spendin gthe twi- light of his life in the quiet of this tiny western Massachusetts hamlet. Here he lives, and has lived for the past four years, with a married daughter.
 Loves the Game
 This little old man with the poetic sould sits by a window, waiting im- patiently for the start of another baseball season. Baseball Is and forever Wil be his "Joie De Vivre"
 D'vys, who pitched and played right field on the Mudville team of Boston's old days. likes to talk about the modern game.
 He likes to tell you that Dizzy Dean is his current idol and that the St. Louis Cards are his favor itels because they are of the two- listed school of the ancient National league era.
 But he likes best to reminiscc, to talk of Casey at the Bat"---this little old man who claims that base balls most famous narrative is one of the 100 or more poems he has authorcd.
 Rubbing a gnarled hand over his eyes that can scarcely sec, he tells you that "Mudville was spot over in Someryille (near his native East Boston). We used to play bal over there and we caleld ourselves the Mudvilles. That was the original Mudyille ninc."
 King Kelly Chosen
 But my Casy was none other than King Kelly who played for Chicago with Pop Anson. One day Chicago came tot Boston. In the course fo the game, Kelly came to sat with the bases filled and a chance to win. We'll, he struck out But he was such 6 popular idol that even the Boston fans mourned his failure"
 Several days later, D'vys said, he was thinking about this "and before I knew i. a few lines popped into my head. So I changed Kelly's name to Casey and brought in my old Mudville nine. The result was Casey at the Bat. That was in August, 1886."
 The ballad first was published anonymously, D'vys claimed. be cause my father was retired sea captain and poetry was not par ticularly appealing to him." EnOney AutnOr
 Bue eleven years later, 1t appeared !n a San Francisco paper and then in Boston paper, another mar signing his name to it." T protested against this and of- fered proof of my right of author ship" he added. Tt was only ( tempest in teapot, but 1t lasted several years.
 However" the little old man witl a touch of pride, T believe Colum. bla university investigated the poem and acclaimed me the real author
 He paused. Then
 "Oh somewhere in this favored land
 The sun ls shining bright.
 And somewhere there is happiness
 And all is pure delight.
 The bands are playing somewhere
 And children laugh and shout But there ls no by in Mlldville nov ] Great Casey has htruck out"
