MOOSE SQUARE FLAG PLAY0FF
 WITH DOUGLAS
Orme's Homer Is Deciding Factor as Paps Cop
 4 to 2 Decision

Getting their six hits when they counted most, the Moose climbed into tie with the Douglas Island- CTS in the Gastineau Channel Title Series last evening, pushing across four well-earned runs to two count CTS chalked up by Douglas.
 Lonny Grant and Claude E 'sk.ne made a valiant stand at bat fJr the losers, but the five safe blows the. rapped out between them counted the two Island runs, but no more. For a while it appeared thac Et- skine's homer with the bases empy, in the sixth frame, might put the Islanders back into the game, com- ing as it did the inning after Grant had singled Roller home with the first Douglas score.
 The Moose, however, had built up too great a lead on WernerS walk followed by Grummett's double in the second frame, Orme's four -baSer over the grandstand to count Hag- lund ahead of him in the third and Jack Schmitz scratch single that scored Werner after his single and steal in the fourth. With his mates doing an able job of playing peek 'a-boo with the ball in the gather ing darkness of the last two in- nings, Johnny Smith, Moose hurler. egged his weakening arm on to pull him unscathed out of a brace of deep pits.
 Dave Turner, Douglas mounds man, had the better of his hill top rival on the records, allowing only six hits and one walk to nine and three the Islanders gathered off Smiths port-side heaves; but Fur her did not have the concentrated hitting behind that was Smiths fortune.
 Smith himself showed a batting eye atune for the battle when he rapped out a clean two-baSe drive to the fence to open the Moose at tack in the third session. It was the first time in two seasons of play that the little Moose heaver had connected for more than the barest of singles. Though Smith was nipped on the next play, he left Haglund set up on base, waiting for Ormes circuit smash.
 With the four out-of seven game Little World Series" now knotted at one victory for each of the con- testants, another game is set for this evening. in an effort to close out the season this week, League Presi- dent William A. Holzheimer an- nounced. Because of the early dark ness at Firemen's Park, the game must start not later than o'clock.

Records of al. kinds were made in last nights softball game held in Evergreen Bowl, when the Truckers trounced the All Stars 10-3. In the first place, not one error was made by the Truckers which is the first team to turn in such a record this year. The All Stars turned in the largest number of errors for a single game with nine recorded Both teams made exactly six hits, and four of the six hits of the losers were triples, which should be some sort of a record in itself The first nine All Stars that faced Trucker pitcher Moreau flied out, and the tenth one famed. Paul Coke, number eleven, finally hit a clean single to the out field that man or immortal couldn t have touched with a ten-foot pole and market basket. However in the first four innings the All Stars were held scoreless.
 The real record of the evening was made by Harry Peterson when he hit safely for the seventh consecu- tive time. It was Harry who hit the first safe ball of the evening for the Truckers and started them on their winning drive. Records show it was Harry's hitting that started a seventh inning rally that defeated the Federals last week, overcoming three-run lead. It was Harry's hit that brought in the winning run that beat the Haida team the week before
 Out of the six hits for the Truck CTS in last nights game, Harry hit three.

He scanned the circle Of faces that

And nobody'd cheer louder than me If
Vascoe took a brodie. But don't you

He glowered ferociously around the

For the truth was that Inspector
John Fernack had not called on the
Saint for information about MIR. Dennis

breaker about whom Fernack needed

tion-and that was the Saint himself
There were times when, however
hard he tried to master them, the
thought of all the lawlesS mischief
which that tireless buccaneer might be
cooking up in secret filled his mind
with such horrific Nightmares that he
had to do something about them or ex-

Relief From
Eczema

For several years I have had eczema
on my arms and legs. The itching was
so bad 1t sometimes seemed as II I
could stand It no longer. At night It
would itch and burn, and I would
scratch 1t until the skin opened and
bled, and matter drained out OF it. NY
legs were In very bad condition and
looked all red and sore. I tried all
kinds OF preparations and treatments,
but none seemed to help.
Finally someone suggested that I
try 'Skin-Ease' which I could buy from
the Wong Sun Company. I decided to
do so, and after using this preparation
for only one week, my legs and arms
have stopped itching and the eczema
is all gone. I would certainly recon-
mend 'Sin-EaSe' 10 anyone who is SUI
fering from any skin disease, as it sure
ly helped me"

BY the Associated Press.

BUFFALO, N. Y, Aug. 1O.-An
Italian woman and her son petitioned
Secretary Of the Treasury Henry Nor
genthau for aid today to save their
life savings-two gold bricks-from
seizure.
Because Italy frobids taking money
out Of the country. Mrs. Virginia Ven
turoli and her son Robert invested
their savings, 81 l.254, in two gold bricks.
In the United States, Mrs. Venturoli
attempted to obtain currency for the
bricks at the Federal Reserve bank and
found her savings hopelessly enmeshed
in the United States law. Mrs. Ventu-
roll said she had not declared the gold
at United States customs because she
thought 1t was Just the same as
money and did not need to be de-
clared."
United States Attorney George l..
Grobe started a libel action to seize the
gold as required by law. although he
said he was convinced Mrs. Venturoli
and her son had not attempted smus-
Cling.
1T is really pitiful case" Mr.. Grohe
asserted. The bricks are all the money
they have"
Only Intervention by the United
States Treasury Department can save
the gold from seizure. Mr.. Grobe said
he had forwarded petition from Mrs
Venturoli to Secretary Morgenthau.
