LONDON, Feb. 4.-Impressed by
the prospect Of faster deliveries, the

Hungary|sP|aced
Under Martial Law
To Combat Violence
Cabinet Step Prompted
By BIost; Nozi Paper
Is Suppressed
By the Associated Press.

DS tue hesoCiAIeO FTebb.
BUDAPEST, Feb. 4.-The govern
ment tonight clamped martial law
on Hungary to combat political
violence and empowered special
courts to impose the death penalty
by hanging within 48 hours after
arrest in certain cases.
This action, taken by the cabinet
at an emergency session, was
prompted by bomb explosion last
night in Budapests largest syna-
gogue which caused injury to about
20 persons.
The cabinet also suppressed for
two months the Nazi newspaper
Magyarsag, personal organ of tho
jailed Nazi leader, Ferenc Szalasi,
who was sentenced last July to three
years imprisonment for "incite-
ment."
The government made no COM
ment on the suppression. Tho
Magyarsag had been clamoring for
stern anti-Semitic laws.
The government also suspended
for one month the newspaper Nyolc
Oral Ujsag, organ Of former Premier
Count Stefan Bethlen, which had
been mildly critical of Premier Bella
Imredi's regime.
The declaration of martial law
was to be published tomorrow in the
official gazette.
The chief provision of the decree
was that persons possessing explo-
sives, bombs or firearms with intent
to make an assault on public order
or who are caught while committing
acts Of violence are to be tried by
a special tribunal.

tember third, here.
A suggestion to the Sang Run team:
First, in order to be reasonably GER
tain of winning a game, blindfoid the
opponents and secure both hands be-
hind their backs with quarter-inch
rope; second, encase the legs of the
outfielders in strong burlap or canvass
sacks. A draw-string properly fast
ened at the top will prevent any possi-
bility of escape. Third, purchase a
medium bore cannon of moderate We
locity and shoot the ball directly at
the opposing side when they are at
bat, substituting with buckshot occa-
sionally if rseults are not immedi-
ately obtained with the regular 12-inch
ball. This is e-baked idea, but I'll
betcha it'll work!

SHADE
 DANBURY 45-42
K. of L. Gains 10 Point Lead at Half Time;
 Ferrie High Scorer

Absence of their shooting stars, Johnny McGuirk and Kenny Rit- chell probably cost the Danbury Guards a victory against the K of L. Club, which ran up 30-20 lead at half time, and hung on in the last half to finish with 8 hard earned 45-42 basketball victory over the Guards last night at St. Josephs court before 700 court customers. In Nat Volpe, the Guards had a player who made up somewhat for the absence of McGuirk or Ritchell, Volpe scoring II points, but Freddy Ferrie got away for 16 points, the Liths made good IT of 20 free throws and Boley added II more to give the Liths enough of an edge to carry them through, despite II points by McNally, Il more by Will son, and 9 by Naugatuck's Dick Tuckey, the team also adding 10 free throws out of 18 chances. Joe Joyce came in nicely durin gthe fourth period, and though held to 6 points and benched awhile be- cause of three fouls he helped in the clutch.
 The last ten minutes was a thrill Ter as the Guards had pulled up within two points of the K. of L., but a local score and then more points by Joyce gave the winners a six point margin. The teams meet again in Danbury Sunday night. Summary:
