Even Washington's No. / junior,
Allie Ritzenberg, folded when he

as was provided in the singles by
Philadelphia's ace, Isadore Bells,
who won by 50, 6-4.

RIPPY OUT
The dash for the championship
is a wide-open affair. Claude Rip
py, 1887 champion, no longer CON-
petes in the public parks set. He
closed out his reign last season by
capturing the event for the third
time in a row to gain permanent
possession of the trophy.
A pre-tourney choice to take
over the title went hayWire yester-
day when Dutch" Rittenhouse

parted from Washington for Phila.

According to close observers Of

ers have equal chances of snag-

Washington.
Goslin is definitely through as
a major league ball player,
through as Nat, and is currently
playing out his LIST days as a bat
ting practice pitcher.
Having failed to break into the
Washington lineup in more than
a month, fans at Griffith Stadium
have often wondered out loud why
he wasn't pressed into service as q
pinch-hitter when the situation
called for a lefthanded hitter.
There Is only one answer. The
Goose has finally come to grips
with that unseen hand that held
no qualmS over tagging out such
mighty figures as Ruth, Cobb,
johnson and Matty.
NO CHANCE
Washington players let slip a
few remarks here yesterday that
left nothing to the imagination. It
was during the Washington bat
ting practice at Briggs Field. Cos
lin was batting, failing to get as
much as a pop fly out Of the in
field.
"That gives me the willies,"
the Washington player said.
Poor Goose hasn't q ghost Of a
chance. I sit here every day
and pull for the guy to hit one
on the nose. But he can't belt
out a solid lick. Not even in
batting practice"
"He was a pretty fair hitter
In his day." the Nat player went
on. But he can't seem to un-
derStand he's through I
guess it'll be that way with the
rest Of us. Bucky can't let him
pinchhit any more. Bucky
knows the Goose is DONE"

player, "Griff knows. too. But
Griff's got a warm spot for the
Goose. I think he'll let him fin
iSh out the season."

When Steele had climbed to his feet

floor.
The next time he got up, Steele ran
right into right which sent him down

him out.

sioni Men go simply wild about It's
delicate lemon flavor and tantallz-

pensive and easy to make.
This tempting dessert is light as

it's white as snow. In fact, it's only
with a fluffy, pure white shorten
ing that you can make an amaz-
ingly snow-white cake like this.
Don't forget, too, ightness and
fineness of texture depend upon the
kind of shortening you use. And
Spry, the new vegetable shortening,
makes cakes unusually fine-textured
and marvelously light.

the $4,000 claims which have nov
been filed. Of course, not all Of these
80 900 claims will be paid, as not less
than one-third fail to comply with the
law. The average of the checks is
now between So and SO.
Despite the fact that the claims
have mounted to a figure not esti-
mated before January 1 the Board is
farther advanced with it's difficult
work than might have been expected
by those who realized the inevitable
delays in handling claims based on a
law which before January / last had
been in force in only one State of the
Union-Wisconsin.
Some complaints, of course, have
been received by the Board, but many
Of these have been due to lack of
knowledge of the laws intricacies.
The Board has to meet the require
ments of both State and Federal laws.
Under these acts, certain large groups
are excluded from benefits. Therefore,
it is not surprising that many of the
claims filed, in one way or another,
fail to meet all the legal requirements.
Some of the States are already NOV
ing to have the law amended in the
direction of simplification. But no
