MINNEAPOLIS, July 15.-Threats
to call in the Army, and wholesale
shutdown of city projects kept
Minneapolis w. P. A. strike at a
low simmer today after night Of
bullet-studded rioting that left one
man dead and II injured.
As Gov. Harold E. Stassen can
vassed the situation with a COM
mittee Of labor leaders, who bluntly
turned down his suggestion that they
send protesting w. P. A. employees
back to their jobs, Mayor George E.
Leach of Minneapolis announced
any new outbreaks would bring q
call for Regular Army help.
National Guard troops in training
at Camp Ripley, near Little Falls.
Mimi, were under orders to hold
themselves available for possible
strike duty in the Twin Cities. The
orders, handed down quietly today,
were tor all officers and men to re-
main in constant touch with their
superiors so they could be mobilized
on short notice II the need arises.
Projects Closed.
All but a few minor projects in
the city were closed on orders Of
State w. P. A. Administrator Linus
Glotzbach, after Mayor Leach had
declared city police could no longer
be responsible for maintaining
peaceful working conditions. Out
State w. P. A. Offices had orders to
hire additional workers to make up
for those cut off the lists here. Mr..
Glotzbach estimated about 1000
new jobs would be thus opened.

ate's hand in conference discussion
of this issue was its acceptance of
proposal by Senator Wagner, Demo-
crat. of New York that special
advisory council be appointed to
examine the whole field of unem-
ployment compensation, presumably
to cover both the taxation and bene-
fit questions.
AS for the Connally and johnson
amendments, it was predicted the
conferees would more likely accept
the former and reject the latter.
The Connally proposal would re-
quire the Federal Government to
advance 81 for each 81 put up by
States in the first SIS of monthly
old-age assistance Although the
proposition probably was designed
primarily to raise the old-age bene-
fits in the poorer States, the formula
applies to all States. The Social
Security Board, opposing the plan,
estimated its extra cost to the Fed
eral Government at $80,000,000.
The johnson amendment would
require that States put up at least
$40 per month for old-age assistance
for each person covered in order to
get any Federal aid. Since nearly
80 States do not now advance that
much, the effect of the amendment
would be to deprive them of Fed
eral aid or require them to appro-
pirate additional funds. If the latter
should be done, the Federal cost
would mount also in conformity with
either the $3.50 matching formula
now in effect or the revised one pro-
posed by Senator Connally.
The board also opposes this
amendment.
Also going to conference are Sem
ate amendments providing for in

DALLAS, Nov. 25.-Cagey South

quick breaks, then shredded Baylor's

Just as 1t appeared the Golden

shy Of the all-time scoring record.
Back in 1925 Jack Manders

Big Six gridiron prestige and hauled
itself into the bowl game picture
today by laundering to a 38-to-7
triumph over an outclassed Kansas
State eleven before II 900 at Fenway
Park.
Only twice during the game could
the Wildcats advance beyond mid
field, once to score against Boston's
third stringers in the games dying
moments and the other time in the
third period when they reached the
20, only to be stopped cold by a
raging Eagle defense.
Scores in Every Period.
Boston, on the other hand, was as
hot as the weather was cold, scor-
ing in every period and twice in the
opening and final stanzas. Vito
Ananis, among the Easts leading
scorers. added II points to his total
through two touchdoWns. Henry
Toczylowski and dusky Lou Mont
gomery shared the other four tallies.
Toczylowski counted before the
game was five minutes old, when he
shared heave from Charley
ORourke and dashed the few re-
naming feet to pay dirt. The touch
down climaxed a march which
started at the Kansas 46 and re-
quired just eight plays to produce
the tally.
Shortly before the period ended.
Toczylowski OUTRAGED the Kansas
safety man, took a 45-yard O'Rourke
heave on the Is and sped over the
goal line for the second score. Luka-

In The Stars 18th annual yuletide

of current statistics last night re-
vealed just 10 with averages equal

scratch of 1913.
Even more novel may be the situ-
alton in the women's division. Un-
less Lorraine GULL quickly pulls out

be without scratch performer.
Miss Gulli's average now is 1T,
which is point under the women'S S
scratch. Handicaps are based on
figures as of December l. The queen
of Washington's duckpin shooters is
averaging 100 in the Baltimore
Women's Major League, but scores
over there don't count in Capital
ratings. So, for the first time in her
career, rollicking Rainie may receive
q handicap.
Clarke and Smith on Top.
Pacesetter among the males at
present is Astor Clarke with 1872 in
the Rosslyn Independent League,
crowded by Hokie Smith of the Dis
trict League Columbian team. Only
these two are above 100. Bunched
at 1913 or slightly better are Sig

In arranging handicaps, two

Every alley manager in the metro
