He can play baseball, football, bas- ketball, he can bowl, swim, and skate. If anyone can top that list I doff my hat to him. Is one of the most popular fellows down in the club. At the first meeting when the club was formed Mike was elected vice-president, which proves more than ever his great popularity. Likes to play cards. and is quite wizard at pinochle.. His favorite winter sports are skating and bowling. Mike says bowling Is a great game. if. you can afford 1t. When good old summertime comes Mike hopes to- be in there pitching his heart out for the Junior Knights. Is lots of fun, and good mixer. Mike, we of the Junior Knights, are proud to have you in our midst, and may our association iri the future be as pleasant as 1t has been In the past N '@ v ,.

Now on with some sporting news

In the past few weeks 1t has been very noticeable that the club has gone bowling crazy. Every member in the club has taken to the craze, and it's really great fun. It has been my pleasure to watch very fine bowlers during this season. but one of the finest bowlers these ere eyes have glimpsed at 1t none other than our own Bill Ross. Bill is terrific when he's right. Yes. sir. Another fine bowler is Jimmy Zuella. Jimmy has one of the sweetest deliveries you've ever seen. So much for bowl ing.

Gossip about the Junior Knights that is gossip, etc.


 Mike Ritucci 1t is my pleasure to report brought up the subject about the Recreation League at the last meeting, and everything is all right, Thanks, Mike. Richie Nave who tn his spare time plays with the Barriers when asked why they lose 50 often replied: "The other team was better that's all" Which Is a lot more than a lot of fellows will say when they are beaten. I've been asked by Howie Dalton, a friend of the Knights, to print a challenge by the Swamp five to any quintet in the city between the ages of IS and l9. Here's hoping you get 6 dozen replies, Howie. Dan Rizzolo while taking in the West Side Speedboy- -Danbury game re- gently informs yours truly that the West Siders are a fine team, but that they stepped out of their class when they entered the State League. Give them another year and they'll be right in there, says Dan. .. :. Willie Kramer had the pleasure, if you want to call t that, of break lng his own high single of SO by bowling 47 the other night. . When Leavenworth knocked of Hamden you couldn't find happier lad in the city than Taffy Carticee which just goes to show you that the old school spirit never dies, eh Taffy

Maybe we shouldn't even dare to predict any more sports events af- ter the merciful beating our aver ages took in the Bow Picks" Once more, we beg you to be lenient with us. because here we go picking the result of one of the greatest nat urals" Connecticut has seen in many years. It's the Al Gainer- Mate Mann scrap. Our choice Is Mann because of his youth, and the T. N. T. he packs in his right fist. Gainer has slipped during the past year, and isn't as ferocious as the Black Panther" of former years. It should be close fight, but If there's a knockout the Knights feel Mann will be the one to deliver 1t. Here's hoping.

that they found no water in the lungs
of the child. They said that there

State Crops
South's Best
But Are Off

Raleigh, June 14.-North Caro-
lina's crops, as Of June /, were con-
sderably below normal, but even
50 they were still the best in the
South, w. H. Rhodes, chief of the
State Department of Agriculture's
statistics division, said today.
Condition on June l was generally
regarded as favorable, although the
month of May was reported too
dry"
Temperatures were favoable ex-
cept for cool days early in the month,
Rhodes said, and crops advanced
rapidly during the last week OF
May.
Some Improvement was noted in
the condition of small grain crops
during May. Farmers estimates in
dictate a probable yield of wheat OF
1l.5 bushels per acre, about the
same as harvested last year, half
bushel higher than was estimated a
month ago and one bushel more
than the average of the past ten
years. The crop is estimated at A.
100000 bushels, which is ten per-
cent below last years but nine per
cent above the ten year average.

80 Pct. Fine
Other 20 Percent of
$4,000 Levy Result
ing from Killing of
German Policeman
Comes from Benes
Group

Prague, June 14.-(AP)-The
Jewish community of Kladno will
be forced to pay 80 percent of the
,000-crown (about $20,000) fine
levied upon the district by Baron
Won Neurath, Reich protector, for
the killing of a German policeman,
it was learned from Czech inform
ants today. The remaining 20 per-
cent will be collected from the
"Benes" former Czechoslovak presi-
dent system. This means Germans
living in the district and those SYM
pathetic toward the protectorate
will be exempted for payment
Kladno gradually was returning
to normal today, with Czech state
police brought from Prague and
Pilsen again patrolling the streets.
Schools, which had been closed
since the shooting last Wednesday
night, and which had served as a
temporary place of detention for
Czech police, resumed classes.
