BALTIMORE, Nov. 24.-LegiSla-

to the voteless residents of the Ma
tional Capital will have the earnest
support of Thomas D'Alesandro of
Baltimore, who has been elected to
the incoming Congress as successor
to Representative Vincent L. Palmi-
sano, chairman of the House District
Committee.s
Il am heartily in favor of extend
Ing to the residents of the District
OF Columbia voting representation
In Congress on the same basis as a
State" Mr.. D'Alesandro said today.
otherwise they have no one to
plead their cause in the legislative
body, because each member is con-
cerned with the interests of the
people who live in his own district
Each citizen should have a voice and
vote in the making Of the laws for
a self-governing people. such as We
. are, but District citizens, living at
the seat Of government, are denied
that right.
Would Study Government Change.
LAS regards changing the form OF
government in the District, giving
the people local suffrage and taking
the control away from Congress,
that is an entirely different matter.
a question which should be studied
most carefully before any decision
is made. But I can see no objection
to giving them participation in max
ing self-governing laws. just the
same as residents in the States have
always had"
Mr.. DAlesandro hopes he will be
assigned place on the House Dis
trict Committee because he feels his
experience as member of the Bal
timore City Council would be of
value on a committee which passes
on legislation affecting the munich
pality of the District of Columbia.
He would like to help solve the traf-
fic problem in Washington. and
promises that as new member of
the House he will give faithful study
to this subject. He will also favor
more Fairgrounds in congested areas.
He pledges himself to consider on
its merits" any legislative proposal
affecting the District. saying: Il
will do my best for the people of
the District, just as I intend to do
my best for the voters in the third
Maryland district who elected me-"
Interested in Harbors.
Because he lives near the Balti-

familiar with Baltimore harbor
problems, and is eager to help put
through legislation for harbor i'm

of his constituents in Baltimore

Mr.. D'Alesandro is not planning

planned that he considers he is more
fortunate than most new members
in thus being able to keep in daily
contact with the voters of his dis

the Yankee need for a certain San Francisco boniface, named Joe Di- maggie. The Tanks but seven hits in two games, which is just about Dimag's par for the course.
 Switching to the recorded doings of Cincinnati and Chicago, the fig ures proved that in the spring (training camps) a young man is much fancier than he is when he is playing for keeps. Take young Harry Craft, Reds centerfielder. He was harder to get out than drunk down in Florida, but yesterday he hit a robust and sterling nothing.
 Here in New York Bill Terry's presence on the third base coaching line signaled possible chance in Giants strategy. Heretofore the great literateur has always held his salon on first base, where he could advise runners how to reach second base and wait for the single which would drive them home with the one run the Giants have always considered so precious and import ant. Now he's on third, shepherding them home, in search of big innings. It had its effect, for yesterday the Giants got three home runs and a brace of doubles.
 The Pittsburg box score gave a pretty definite answer to those crit ics who shied away from naming the Pirates for success because they believed Father Time finally had caught up with Paul Waner. Some one of Paul's maternal ancestors must have been frightened by Ten nyson's brook, because Paul appar- ently is going to carry on forever. All he could do was bang out a single, a double, and a triple. that's not Evangeline league hitting when Weiland is throwing 'em at you.
 The figures from Philadelphia where the Brooklyns opened, made one wonder when, if ever, Van Lin gle Mungo is going to live up to his press clippings. Mungo is always spoken of as one of the games greatest pitchers-but why? He never has won 20 games in a season, and yesterday he was knocked out in the fifth. If you think Mungo should be spoken of in the same breath with such chappies as Hub- bell, Dean, or Warneke, why just take look at the records.

New York, April 20-I am not a subscriber to the belief that the first games of the baseball season are unimportant and carry no weight in the pennant races. To me the open ing game is just as vital as one month from now or the one on July fourth or even the final one.
 So, have always made it a prac- tice to make a thoughtful study of the first box scores. To me they are pregnant with information, and nearly always reveal facts which en- able me to pierce the mists of the future with astounding accuracy.
 Take the Yankees box score, for example. It showed just how much confidence Manager Mccarthy has in the hitting ability of Joe (Flash) Gordon, his new second baseman In the ninth inning "clutch" of the first game he yanked Gordon in favor of pinch hitter Billy Knicker- booker. When they pull you out of there to allow Knickerbocker to bat you aren't SO hot, because Knicker- booker is strictly "short pants hitter. The box score also revealed

DizzyAnd Daggio Hold Diamond Ouer Nation
Wrigley Or Sam BreadOn Wrong On Dean Deal?

Cincinnati, April 19 - (UP) = Jerome CDizzy) Dean pitches his first game for the Chicago Cubs this afternoon and on his every gesture will be focused the questions uppermost in thet minds of millions of baseball fans-is this the Dizzy fold, one of the greatest pitchers of all time?-is any player, even Dizzy Dean, worth $250,O00.?
 w. K. Wrigley, owner of the Chi- cago Cubs, paid $185, ,000 in cash and three players estimated to be worth 5000 to obtain the big and eccen- trio right handler from the St. Louis Cardinals.
 The price in cash and players was a record one and represented Wrig- ley's determination to win not only the National league championship but the world championship this season.
 Therefore, the Cubs game this afternoon against the Cincinnati Reds-the second of the new season for each team - assumed much greater importance than that of an early season game. Each pitch Dizzy sends across the plate will demonstrate which was the smartest baseball man-Wrigley who paid a quarter of million for pitcher, or Sam Breadon, president of the Cardinals, who received it.
 No one knew whether Dean was o rNtf n rrnp though it was assumed that Wrig- ley's scouts had looked him over carefully before he was bought. He had poor season last year after he broke his toe in mid-seaSon, and he had complained of a sore arm. This afternoons game will at least indi- cate whether he is capable of being the pitcher he has been.
 The Dean of old would assure the Cubs of the National league pen- nant and perhaps of the world championship, baseball experts agreed. In 1884 he won 30 games and lost "a phenomenal record. In six years with the Cardinals he won 133 games and lost 75. Oedu WILL plICll u1lueI d AI1Sltlu1 handicap If he should be knocked out, he and Wrigley will be sure to reap full measure of the con- temptuous sautations known in the sports world as razzberries. The handicap might bother an ordinary man, but the dizzy one is not an ordinary man and he predicted freely the rapid demise of the Cin- cinnati Reds in the face of his speed ball and his curves.
 He will be opposed by the pitch- ing star of the Reds-Lee GriSSom.
