FALL BANK CALL
: BELIEVED LIKELY
Signs Here Point to Action
by Controller Within Next
as Days.
By DONALD b. HADLEY.

Possibility that the controller Of the
currency may issue fall call for the
condition of banks within the next
IS days was discussed in the financial
district today
While fall call has not been issued
for the last three years, some observers
believe there will be one this year. In
the past the time for such call has
varied considerably.
The one in 1882 was as of September
80; in 1888, as of October 25; in 1894.
as of October II. and in 1885, as of
November l. Capital banks have re-
celved papers from the controllers Of
flee for call. However, last year they
were received about the same time, and
call did not finally come until the
end of the year.
Veterans in the District say that
while call still is only possibility,
certain signs point toward one.

Of business, such as the New York
Yankees suggestion that a play
er's salary be spread out over a
12-month period, and the advis-
ability of the American League
approving night baseball, will be
taken up, the fans interest CEN
tiers on who will get who from whom,
and for how much.
The New York Giants and the
Chicago Cubs jumped the gun at
New Orleans in announcing triple
play deal in which the Giants got
Ken ODea Frank Demaree and
Bill Jurges. In return for Gus Man
cusco, Dick Bartell and Hank Leiber,
and the fans got headaches trying
to figure out who got the better OF
the transaction. However, other
major deals are sizzling.
Bonura Deal Still Hot.
For instance, the Giants are ex-
pected to make a grab for Zeke
Bonura, Washington first baseman
who has been waived by other
American League clubs. Bill Ter
ry needs a hard-hitting first sacker
and Clark Griffith is willing to let
Bonura go.
Several deals were reported put
on the fire at the meeting Of the
National Association of Professional
Baseball Clubs at New Orleans this
week, and these may come to boil
here.

the Chicago White Sox would oe
only too glad to give Utility Inf1eldeI
Boze Berger to the st. Louis Browns

Browns hand over Pitcher Russ Van

Another transaction which will be
watched with interest is that which

Mack After Ball Club.
Other rumors are bouncing around
like tennis balls. There is the re-
port that the Cleveland Indians
would part with Earl Averill, Sammy
Hale and Frank Pytlak If the re-
turns are favorable: that Larry Mac
Phail of the Brooklyn Dodgers could
