 GO SATURDAY
Brown Not to Play; Injured Tigers Back in Lineup;
 Drills Completed

Crosby and Leayenworth meet to- morrow afternoon at Municipal Stadium at 200 in the first game for the city high school footDas stadium at 2shrfoetaoineshrdul championship. Crosby will undouDt- edly be favored to take the Tech- men but as game time approaches considerable support for Leayei,- worth has been appearing. Last Sat urday Coach Tracey's team lost 70 Torrineton 2l-7 team when Crosby held to scoreless tie. FTom a comparison of scores, Crosby LOOKS the stronger team, but the fact that six regulars who were out of the Torrington clash because of injuries will be back in there tomorrow, changes the complexion o1 lningS somewhat. Leavenworth VIII pc much stronger against Crosby than was the case when the teams iaceo Torrington.
 Crosby finished its contact work vesterday afternoon. and this after noon will work only lightly. Coach Schofield has given his squad a strenuous week, as he was olssatlS- fled with the showing of his club last week against Central. In that contest the line showed unexpected weakness and Central :':s found no difficulty in breaking through. On offense the line was not charg- ing. and the workouts this week have tser devoted to polishing up the defects which appeared in the Central game. Blocking. blocking and more blocking has been the pro- gram, and at yesterdays final scrim- mage results were evident. The flrst team line ripped holes in the for ward wall of the second. and the backs drove through for long gains.
 George Brown, elusive left hail. back and the teams hes! kicker ana passer will be out of tomorrow's con- test, as also will be Tom Ames, reg

 game. Crosby's lineup tomorrow

 land. Marcini, Adomaitis and Joe

 With six injured regulars back
 Leavenworth is expecting to make the game contest. Coach Bill

If someone should tell you tha. the St. Thomas Bowling league isn't the liveliest league in town, don't you believe it. It would be foul propaganda.
 Charley Don't call me Jasperl Keeley led his team to a hard fought victory over Father Don- nelly's men, taking two games. The third game of this match saw our chaplain's men come back to eS- tablish a new record, led by Jackie Grant and George SlOss. they knocked the naples over to the tune of 542.
 If some enterprising .'oung man should open cough drop conces- sion at the Chase alleys, he would do a land-office business, with Keeley as his best customer and Jimmy Grout running close sec ond. These men yell themselves hoarse every Monday night.

Hopkins RidicuIes
Business Gloom

WASHINGTON. May s. CUP)-
Secretary of Commerce Harry L
Hopkins declared today that the
resolutions passed at last weeks
U. S. Chamber of Commerce meet
ing were unnecessarily gloomy and
mwarranted in the face Of improy-
ing business conditions.
He met newspapermen shortly
after returning from an overnight
cruise on the Potomac with Presi-
dent Roosevelt and Supreme Court
Justice William o Douglas. former
head of the securities exchange
commission. Hopkins had been away
from his desk for 10 weeks recup-
Grating from influenza. He declar-
ed he was feeling "fine-neyer bet
ter"
He was asked what he thought
of the chamber of commerce reso-
lutions, which called for repeal of
the wage-nour act, liberalization of
tax laws and notifications of many
other New Deal measures.
Not much" he snapped. They
certainly spread a lot of gloom
around town. Maybe that's what
encouraged me to get we'll faster.

ness to mediate.
Butler replied TO a question by
John Morgan, laborite, regarding
appropriate machinery TO enable
the future status of DanZig to be
made the subject of arbitration be-
fore an international tribunal. He
referred Morgan to Britain'S obli-
cation under the league statute
creating Danzig and said:
The status of Danzig is regu-
lated by treaty. The question of
any change in that status in prac-
tice Is in the first instance for the
parties most directly interested in
the treaty settlement. It is for
them TO agree on the method by
which they should proceed.
1T has been repeatedly made
clear that His MajeStyS govern

Duke Speaks as
Soldier of Last
Terrible Conflict
(Continued from Pace One)

where not an inch of soil escaped
the terrible churning OF three
years of constant shelling which
cost 100000 French, American ana
German casualties.
The speech was prepared with the
cooperation of the duchess, the
woman I love" for whom he gave
uD the British throne. 1t was MS
first broadcast since the historic
abdication farewell, in which ne
told the world that he gave up the
thrcne for love and ended with the
cry for the younger brother who
succeeded him. God save the KING.
The British Broadcasting com
pany, which controls radio pro-
grams in England, boycotted the
speech.
Officials of the company, after
hurried meeting, decided not TO
rebroadcaSt the speech, regarding
it as untimely, coming when the
king and queen are on the Atlantic,
bound on their peace mission to
America.
Thousands of British listeners
who have short wave sets we're able
to pick up the speech, however.
Rritons, particularly those In
court circles, were aStomded by the
disclosure that the former Edward
VIII was to broadcast speech to
the United States through the
National BroadcaSting company
hardly 48 hours after his brother
successor. King George vi, had
sailed for visit 10 Canada and the
United States.
Court circles suggested that the
Duke was pulling another boner'
such as that which caused him to
cancel a projected visit to the
United States in November, 1887,
when it developed that his "Spon-
sor" and advance agent was
Charles E. Bedaux, inventor of an
industrial speed-up system which
has been bitterly denounced by
labor.
So astonished were persons con-
nected with court circles that they
even predicted that he would can
eel his plan when he realized, as
they put it, that it might be inter-
preted as untimely publicity. He
did not do so.
ut looks as if the duke was be-
ginning to act up as soon as the
king is out of the country said
one person.
Neither the king nor the govern
ment has any authority to prevent
the duke making speeches. They
had left it up to him not to en-
barrass the royal family. For that
reason court circles expressed cor
fidence that if he did make his
5peech-they hoped he wouldn't
he would confine himself strictly tc
non controversial topics.

Polish German differences over
Danzig and the Polish corridor.

and Italy desire, 1t is not impos-
sible that Japan will conclude a
military agreement with the axis
powers"
Gen. K. Koiso, overseas minister,
said:
1T is inconvenient and dangerous
for Germany and Italy to exercise
their national policy in the face
of encirclement by other powers
without seeking the full coopera-
ton of Japan, which is the great
est power in East Asia"
Neutral observers considered the
statements intended for home con-
sumption.
They believed however, that the
complicated diplomatic maneuver-
ing going ON behind the scenes
with regard to Japan's policy to-
wards Europe had reached a new
critical stage and that Berlin had
replied to Tokyo's refusal last week
to join a general alliance with a
threat of q German Russian mill
tary agreement.
The attitude of the premier, Bar
on Kiichiro Hiranuma, has been
that Japan is ready to sign a mill
tary agreement with Rome and
Berlin effective only against Rus
sia but that she will not sign an
agreement effective against Britain
and France.
