Crowmen Score 9-5 Victory;
JB's Whip Athletics And

BY r. j. POWELL

The Royal Crown baseball team

Fear league second half flag yes

9-5 triumph owe the second place
Masonboro Ramblers in. a game
played at Legion stadium.
In the other games of the day,
Jackson-Bell took over sole pos
session of third place with a ia
decision over the Athletics and the
Hi-Kappas advanced into fourth
place with a 11-3 win over the
Purol Bluebirds.
Lappy Williams went the dis
lance for the res, and pitching
steadily, he scattered six hits and
was never in danger. Ed. Wilson
was the Crown catcher.
Bobby Edwards started on the
slab for the Ramblers, and was
touched for eleven knocks during
the four frames he worked. Junior
Edwards relieved his brother in
the fourth and allowed three
bingles in finishing the contest.
Adrian Rhodes caught from
Masonboro.
Stokely with three Tor four,
Brown with two for five and Lin
wood Rowan, with two for four
were the big guns in the res
eleven hit attack.
Working behind a r7rsr : inning
two-run lead that grew as til e
game progressed, Hi-Happa hurler
Jimmy Mintz enjoyed an easy time
holding the Bluebirds in check in
achieving his third oitching con-
quest of the second half. High
pockets held the Bluebirds to four
singles, three of which were regis
tered by Red Miller, and famed
ten while passing four. For a
while it looked like the lanky right
handler would hang up another
shutout victory to pack away with
his goose-egg accomplishment
against the AS last week, but a
base on balls and Red Miller's
timely bingle snapped the fifteen
frame scoreless streak in the sixth.
Leon Thomas error of Bakers
grounder handed the losers anoth-
er in the same chapter. The other
Purol u came in the next inning
via the unearned route.
Headon Piner on the mound for
the Bluebirds, deserved a better
break than he received, although
he was nicked for 10 thunderous
clouts by the victory-mad Hi-Kap-
pas. The. firebali finger famed
eleven and would have accom-
plished more had the Bluebird de-
Tense not blown up during several
critical stages of the affair. l
The JB-Athletic fray at Robert
Strange was a scoreless nip and
tuck battle until the seventh round
when the Printers tore into the Of
fering of AS hurler, Wallace and
his successors, Gore and Anderson
for a big lead that proved too
much for the Athletics, who only
last week held the Kappa gang to
enc measly, but game-winning
bingle. When the bombardment
had ceased, the JB's had collected
fifteen hits and the AS nine. Jack
Allen was the JB chunker and
Woodcock was the receiver.

handsome. She'd be darned if she
was going to sit around waiting for
Brent Nelson to phone! Terry o.
Rourke was omeone with whom to
be seen. A little later she suggested:
Maybe you'd like to go some
where else when you're through, If
I can't buy you a drink here. I feel
as though I'd like someone to talk
with"
Terry nodded.
"But I'll buy you a drink"
| Nothing to lose. And why should
he sit around moping about Chol-
ly? He hadn't gathered up h nerve
to call her since Officer OMalley
had told him he'd been put out of
the Leo-Dane music store for go
ing in there while intoxicated and
causing a scene.
It was hours later, in a little place
out Michigan avenue, that Terry o.
Rourke learned his drinking COM
panion was Myra Moves, the radio
star. They had told the stories of
their broken romances and their
grievances against a cold world.
But it was not until the next
night, at another spot, that Myra
learned Terry's former fiancee lived
with Romany Halle. Into her mind
came the thought that, through Ter
nv O'Rourke, she might find a way
to get the revenge she wanted
against the girl who had taken not
only her fiance, but who had threat
ened her radio throne.
Aside from that, Terry was an
amusing companion and his voice
was a gift of the gods.
And Terry considered himself
lucky to have met the radio star.
When Cholly heard about it, she'd
certainly sit up and take notice!

Well, here it is at last! The pic
ture you've been waiting for, the
battle of the century between those
feuding radio comedians, Jack
Benny and Fred Allen! Paramount
captured them on film in a furious,
fast and funny musical farce titled
Love Thy ,Neighbor," which open
ed yesterday at the Bailey theatre.
Between the gags that kept the
audience in Mysteries there were
songs you'll sing again and again
and dances that were beautiful to
watch.
And there's Mary Martin, that
charming and talented Broadway
musical comedy star. She sings
the song that she made famous
and that made her famous in turn,
my Heart Belongs To Daddy" as
only Mary can sing it. It's the
finale to a swell picture m which
she's accompanied by the cast and
the Merriel Abbott dancers. And
does she put it over with a bang!
And while we're speaking of songs
it might as well be told here that
there are three other numbers that
are equally as colorful. They are
DO You Know Why" isn't That
Just Like Love- and Dearest,

famous radio quarte+te, also carry

Jacks raspberry voiced valet on
the air, is in the picture in all his
glory. His girl friend is Theresa
Harris and they make a e l
team.
Verree Teasdale, who isn't in
enough pictures to suit us since
she became Mrs. Adolph Menjou,
upholds the tradition of the House
of Menjou in a stunning array Of
new dresses. Virginia Dale, as
the blonde and beauteous show
girl, is enough to stop any show.
But there's always Jack Benny
and Fred Allen in their battle of
quips that kept the audience in
stitches.
1t all starts on New Years Eve.
Jack is preparing for a r a d i o
broadcast, and on the way takes
Rochester to meet his girl friend
who is getting in on a cruise ship.
