 At the time Walsh was arrested, there had been a number of house breaks here. He was grilled by police on some of these, but denied any, thing but the McCann case where nothing was taken. Since he has been in jail, the home of Clarence Guild of Park avenue has been brok- en into and $500 in jewelry taken.
 James Goodson of Wood street, Waterbury, pleaded guilty to a charge of operating a motor vehicle while his license was suspended and was fined $100 and costs of $11.36 with $50 of the fine remitted. His lawyer, Atty. Cassell, said Goodson drove here because truck owned by his mother had broken down and the driver did not have money to have it fixed. Apparently Goodson intended to take care of this. Good sons car was involved in a accident Friday on the Waterbury, -Naugatuck road, his vehicle colliding with one driven by Gordon Wells of 751 Wa tertown avenue, Waterbury.

MEMEL CAN STAND
 ASSERTS HITLER

London, Dec. 22-(UP)-FuehTer Adolf Hitler said at Berchtesgaden in September that The would be glad to let Memel stand as it is as long as the Memel statute is observed by Lithuania," Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain said today in the house of commons.
 Memel was taken from Germany after the World war. Under the Memel statute it constitutes a unit under the sovereignty of Lithuania, but with large measure of local autonomy.
 Memels German Nazi party re- gently won an overwhelming victory in the election of new Diet and there were forecasts that agitation would be renewed for annexation of the important port area to Ger many. Hitler, however, has given no definite sign of his attitude toward the annexation proposal and the Nazi controlled press had refrained from making any demands. Lithuania, after the election, re- newed her pledge to observe the Memel statute. Britain and France were understood to have asked Hit Ter to make clear his attitude toward Memel but no definite reply was made public.
 Berlin sources meanwhile indi- cated that there was no reason to expect an immediate campaign fo, annexation of the territory, which many observers have considered might be more useful to Hitler's gen. eral eastward expansion program if it remained technically a part oi Lithuania but under Nazi domina- tion.

THERE are enough Italian boys
= in the big leagues to do a Verdi
opera, with principals and chorus
warbling in the mother tongue. Not
that these fellows are singers. Ball
playing is their business and their
performance on the diamond is
making the brilliance of these Sec
ond and third generation sons of
Italy tradition in the national
game.
Take a census of the Italian
Americans in the National and
American leagues and you'll find
there are II of them and if you add
coach there would be 18 in all.
Eleven of them are playing in the
National league and seven are doing
their chores in the American.
Put them all together on a BAN
field and you'd have a team that
with the exception of pitching would
be able to hold its own with any
club in the big leagues. Let's start

At first base you would have your
choice of Dolph Camilli of the
Brooklyn Dodgers or Zeke Bonura
of the Washington Senators. Dolph
would probably get the call for the
job because of his greater speed
and superior fielding ability, al
though Bonura would command re-
spect because of his hitting.
Second base on this Italo-Amer-
lean team might be a problem. To
begin with, there's Tony Lazzeri,
now utility man with the Chicago
Cubs. Tony was a big gun for
years in the New York Yankees
offense and defense and that team
seems to be feeling his absence
this year. Age would probably keep
Tony from playing regularly, so the
call would probably go to Tony
Cuccinello of the Boston Bees whose
fighting heart and fielding skill
have helped make the Bees a terror
for other National league teams this
spring. Then there would be Lou
Chiozza of the New York Giants,
who though crowded out of a regu-
lar job by the acquisition of Alex
Kampouris by Bill Terry, still can
give a good account of himself.
There would be no contest at third
base. Cookie Lavagetto of the
Brooklyn Dodgers who led the
league in hitting this spring would
nail down that job without half try
ing. Shortstop, of course, would go
to Frank Crossetti of the New York
Yankees, because of his superb
fielding and his timely hitting.
frankie isn't as fast as he was a
few years ago, but he's still good
enough for the big time.
The incompatible Joe Di Maggie,
centerfelder of the New York
Yankees, would head up the out
field. He would probably be fianked
on one side by his brother Vincent
of the Boston Bees and by Johnny
Rizzo who started the season so
sensationally with the Pittsburgh Pr
rates. Phil Cavaretta of the Chi
cago Cubs would also be in the fight
lot all OutIlelQ 1OD.
His best chance would be to nose
out Rizzo, for Vince Di Maggie is
recognized as one of the classiest
fielders in the business and he is
crowding his way toward the 800
mark. Melvin Mazzera of the st.
Louis Browns and Tony Bongiovan-
nj of the Reds would be utility OUT
felders.
The pitching staff would present
problems. There isn't pitcher of
Italian ancestry in the big show who
compares in skill with the others.
1t seems that the sons of Italy have
preferred positions where their
speed and general all-around ability
give them a chance to play regu-
larly every day. So only Julio Bon
netti of the st. Louis Browns and
Joe Cascarella of the Cincinnati
Reds would be possibilities. Neither
would be of any great assistance,
according to their 1887 records,
which showed seven games lost and
one won by Cascarella for both
Washington and the Reds and four
lost against one victory for Bon
netti.
Oscar Mellilo, coach of the
Browns, would draw the assignment
of manager in view of his long ex-
perience and his splendid career as
player. Mellilo was one of the
first of the American-Italians to
demonstrate his races proficiency
on the diamond. He still holds the
big league record for consecutive
chances accepted at second base
I'll between April 80 and July 4,
1888. He also ranks all-time second
in most assists in a season for Sec
ond-basemen, with 572 for the year
1880.
