Dickman May Put Red SOx In Pennant Picture
BY ROBERT WEBB United Press Staff Correspondent

Boston, July 14-(UP)-The slug ging Boston Red Sox have found a partial solution to their acute pitching problem in the person of 23-year-old Emerson Dickman, the rookie righthander who turned in his best pitching performance of the season to defeat the Tigers "A yesterday at Fenway Park.
 With such pitching veterans as Johnny Marcum, Jack Wilson, and Fritz Ostermueller suffering from miscellaneous arm ailments-the chief one of which is ineffective ness-Manager Joe Cronin took a chance with Dickman although the former Washington and Lee ath- lete hadn't started a game in six weeks.
 Dickmans work was a pleasant surprise to Cronin and to the 29000 who watched the afternoons &C., ton. Although weakening in the last inning, Dickman accounted for the decision with little help from relief pitcher Archie McKain who forced Centerfielder Chet Morgan to hit into a game-ending double play.
 Dickmans recent work has been a revelation. After pitching in II games and winning none, he sud- denly reversed his form and &C., counted for Philadelphia, New York and Detroit scalps in eleven days. He has won more July games than any other pitcher on the staff.
 Perhaps home run, the first of his big league career, gave Dick man the confidence to pitch with the ability he showed during the spring training session. At Phil adelphia II days ago, he slapped one out of the park which paved the way for his first victory of the year.
 Last Friday, Dickman licked the Yankees 9-8, relieving the falter- ing Jack Wilson with the bases full In the second inning. He allowed the Tanks only six hits in the 6 Ia innings he worked before he tired and Jim Bagby was waved in to finish up.
 Dickman is the second of the Red Box youngsters to blossom out under the tutelage of Joe Cronin and pitching coach Herb Pennock He still lacks a good curve but his coolness under fire makes him a valuable addition to the riddled Boston staff.
 Because of Dickman's excellent Minor League record-he won 16 and lost eight with Little Rock a year ago-Joe Cronin gave him two chances to start in the early days Of the championship season. The Boston manager picked good sports Tor the promising rookie working him twice against the Athletics.
 But Dickman showed he was not ready. He lasted only l 2-3 innings his first start and only 2-3 the second. His third start. against Washington, was also rather un- happy experience 50 for the past month and a half, he has toiled in the bullpen and watched his more apt contemporaries perform.
 Three consecutive victories don't mean a successful year by any stretch of the imagination but they stand out like 20-game season to Mancgcs Cronin whose pitchers have been staggering along ineffec- lively since April. Sox fans are pleased with Dickman's recent ef-

 For that reason-and it isn't maudlin sentimentality that causes me to say it-golf comes nearest to being the most honest sport in the world.
 Why? I can't exactly explain. Un- less it is the fact that the men who make the game are supremely proud of the sport which gives them liv- ing-even though precarious one in most instances-and are deter mined at any cost to keep the game beyond the slightest vestige of sus- picion.

FOREIGN LANGUAGE
STATIONS BARRED
Facilities for Persons Who Do Not
Speak English Declared
Unnecessary,

American radio broadcast facilities
will not be allocated to set up sta
tions to transmit programs to persons
Of foreign extraction who can not
understand English. the Federal Com
munications Commission has decided.
This policy was set in an adverse de-
cision on an application in which the
applicants figures citing the need re-
ferred only to German and Polish
groups.
The decision was made on the ap-
plication Of WWPO, Inc, for a con-
struetion permit, and the commission
said that from the testimony Of the
officers and directors it appeared that
the main purpose Of the application
was to meet An alleged need for for.
eisn language broadcasts.
The commission pointed out that the
program service offered by the appli-
cant emphasizes the large foreign ele.
ment m Pittsburgh and the need for
giving service to the portions Of those
foreign groups which do not speak
English. But the commission added
that the record does not establish the
existence Of large foreign popula-
tion In Pittsburgh unable to speak
English. Even If the record would
sustain such finding. the decision
held. the contention that q new radio
station Is necessary to serve their
needs Is unsound. Radio broadcasting
facilities are too few and the need for
equitable distribution of these facili-
ties throughout the country is too
large 10 grant such broadcast station

T|FERETH ISRAEL
PLANSSYNAGOCUE
New Structure Probably to
Be Located Near Center
of the City.

Plans for construction Of q new
synagogue were announced yesterday
BY the Tifereth Israel Congregation.
The site for the structure has not been
selected, but Jewish leaders said it
probably will be located near the cen
ter Of the city.
A large increase in membership Of
the congregation during recent years
has necessitated larger quarters, which
will include facilities for classrooms for
Hebrew instruction, a banquet hall,
completely equipped kitchen, quarters
for the administrative officers of the
congregation and ofiices and q study
for Rabbi Harry Silverstone.
Congregation leaders said it prob
ably will be one of the most modern
and completely equipped synagogues
in the country.
Samuel Rod, president of the con-
gregation, also announced the ap-
pointment Of the Building Committee,
which includes Wolf Ulman, chair
man: Benjamin F. Pollack, co-chair-
man; Joseph Cherner. treasurer, and
Philip Goldstein, secretary.
The movement to obtain the new
synagogue got under way At the Yom
Kippur services during the high holy
days. At that time more than $25 900
was pledged to begin the project. The
Building Committee will select sub
committees within the next few days
and q drive for funds will start.
The present synagogue Is located at
Fourteenth and Euclid streets NV.
Omcers explained . location nearer
the center OF the city would be more
convenient for the majority Of the
membsrship, which has shifted since
construction Of the present quarters.

TWO WASHINGTON
POLICE ON TRIAL FOR
KILLING VET

Washington, D. c., Sept, tCNA)-
Clintaxing bitter battle against Wash
ington police murders Of Negro citizens
which have claimed 50 victims in the
last several years, two white capital
city police faced a-spolice trial board
here for theSslayirg of Leroy Keys, a
war veteran.
The policemen, Robert n. Henry
and John w. ,Nally, are being tried
a second time for the killing of Keys.
At the time of Keys death, the two
officers were, as has been invariably
the case in such matters, completely
exonerated of guilt despite the over
whelming evidence proving the con-
trary.
The reopening of the trial is the re-
suit of a militant campaign against
police brutality which was instituted
by the Communist Party. A recent
parade of protest called by the Com
munists drew three thousand people in
its line of march.
More recently many other organiza-
tions have joined in the campaign, in
cluding churches, newspapers and the
National Negro Congress. An organ
lied campaign is underway to obtain
fifty thousand signatures on a petition
asking President Roosevelt for the re-
moval of Police Chief Brown, the sus-
pension and trial of all guilty, and in
vestigation of the entire question of
police terror in, the District of Column

HARLEM HAS HIGHEST
T. B. DEATH RATE

New York, Sept, (CNA)-In New
York, the chances of Negroes dying
of tuberculosis is double than of any
other part of the country, according to
the quarterly bulletin issued by Health
Commissioner, John L. Rice.
The shocking rate of Negro mortal
ity in tuberculosis cases was illustrated
by comparative figures of all parts o.
the country In 1885 more. than half
of the Negro deaths due to tuberculosis
occurred in New York City, whose
mortality figure for that year was 800,
whereas in all the rest of the country
the average was l32.
