British succeed in warding of the
invasion, foreign observers said, the
Mediterranean from Gibraltar to
Suez is likely to become a major
theater this winter, since 1t is
favored by better weather than that

In a more intensified Mediterra-
mean warfare, observers said, Spain's
help might be required to drive the
British of the Rock of Gibraltar
and close its straits to an enemy
whose fleet in the southern sea
then would be prey for Italian sub
marines and airplanes.
For that reason, there were un-

YANKEE FANS TRY
 TO BEAN UMPIRE

New York, July 22.-CUP)--First Basesaan Rudy York of the Detroit Tigers went to bat today for Umpire Joe Rue, target of a protest barrage of pop bottles, fruit and score cards rom angry New York Yankee fans during the second game of yester- days doubleheader at Yankee Sta- alum.
 The debris was thrown when Rue called foul a line drive Yankee Tom my Henrich bit down the first base line in the t1fth inning, when the Tanks had two men on and were one run behind. Both runners had scored and Heinrich had pulled up at third base when the umpire ruled that the drive which caromed of the glove of York and bounded into the right Held corner was foul.
 The fans, who had watched the Tanks lose the first game 4 to 3, cheered the hit they thought had put their team ahead 3 to 2.
 When Rue called the foul the 68,- 590 fans went wild. He stood his ground at home plate and umpire Harry Geisel had to pull him to safety as pop bottles came danger ously close to his head.
 The outburst continued until a cordon of police moved through the crowd and restored order. Police es- corted Rue from the field.
 York coT,curred with Rue's deci- sion today.
 T was of the line in my position, but to me 1t seemed that the ball bounced fair few feet inside first, but 1t was at least three feet wide of the foul line going over the bag That's why I couldn't reach it." he said.
