Bill Christie's Blues took over the leadership of the Patriotic league with three game conquest of the Eagles at the 20th Century Drives last Friday night. Previous to the triple setback the Birds had been perched in first place since the start of the season, some five weeks back. The Stripes blanked the Whites and the Stars took two out of three from the lowly Reds.
 The Blues had predicted a sweep and they lived up to their boasts although hard pressed in the final game. For a while it looked like Leo Bakmazian was going to pull one of his famous last minute marks to save his team from con- plete embarrassment, but fate ruled otherwise and Leo missed a spare

By this method, the teams will be awarded one point for each game won and a point for the highest team total pinfall in each match, which without question will continue the great competitive spirit in the league.
 There gre no greater bowling en- thusiasts than the Power Company employees and the bowling committee has made every effort to organize a league of the same high caliber as those which have staged the great races in former years and in order to make the competition keen, the committee has arranged to award the most attractive weekly and sea- sens prizes in its history.

BOSTON COLLEGE

Newton, rdass., October IT. - (UP) - Boston College, preparing for an intersectional clash with Idaho Saturday, slackened its prac- tice pace today after rugged intra- squad scrimmage. Coach Frank Leahy who refused to treat Idaho as a setup despite it's poor record still was unimpressed by the work of his undefeated Eagles in yesterdays session. Leahy admitted, however. that fullback, Mike Holovak. and Adolf Kisseil had shown plenty of drive in their line plunging. All the regulars worked with the excep- ton of end, Gene Goodreault, and quarterback, Henry Toczylowslki.

Occupation Of Toneier
May Darker Lighthouse

By the Associated Press
The international lighthouse which
the United States helps maintain
at Cape Spartel on the Atlantic
coast of Morocco may be darkened
as a result of the Spanish occupa-
ton of Tangier
Along with nine other nations
the United States agreed in 1865 to
share jointly the cost of maintain
ing the light for use of world
wide commerce.
Each of the nations pays the Sui
tan of Morocco an equal share of
the annual cost, which has varied
from as low as 5000 to more than
$1,000. Last year the American
share was $784.
In other areas Of occupation since

Italian Consu|ates
Further Fascism,
i. 5. Agency Warns
New York Police Ordered
To Intensity Vigilance
To Halt Propoeundists
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, June 14.-Intensi-
fed police vigilance has been Or
dered here following warning by
an undisclosed Federal agency that
italian consuls general in the United
States had been instructed to fur
ther the cause of Fascism in this
country.
All city police commanders were
assembled in secret conference
yesterday at which they were given
a 25-page report summarizing re-
suits of an investigation by the
Federal agency.
Asked to comment on reports that
Italian officials had been told to
conduct propaganda campaigns in
newspapers, schools and over the
radio, attaches at the Italian Con-
sulate here said:
We are not authorized to make
any statement regarding political
matters"
Mayor La Guardia in an address
last Monday advised consular agents
to adhere strictly to their consular
duties"
There are more than 1000 900 per-
sons of Italian descent in New York
City.
The memorandum handed ranking
police officers and inspectors of the
criminal alien, sabotage and bomb
squads contained instructions to
make arrests whenever and wherever
necessary.
The memorandum summarized re-
suits of the Federal agency's investi-
cation into Fascist activities and au-
thorities said these activities are
carried on with the approval of Ital-
ian consulate officers who worked
under the mantle of diplomatic
immunity"
Federal investigators were said to
have obtained copies of instructions
which went out to consulate officers
on the dissemination of propaganda
The instructions were said to ad-
wise consulate attaches, and through
them various Italian organizations
to preach Fascism, enlist all possible
aid for it, and try as effectively as
possible to bring new members into
the cause.
Action taken by police here, it
was reported, was at the behest of
Federal officials. with the approval
of the Mayor, as part of Nation
wide drive to check anti-national
defense preparations.
The memorandum to the police
begins by saying: The survey will
demonstrate that the officials of the
italian Consulate General in New
York, aided by their diplomatic i'm
munity, are engaged in a stubborn
propaganda"
A foreword says that this survey
is founded on documentary evi-
dence; rumor, hearsay and unveri-
fled statements rigidly excluded.
The memorandum emphasizes
that Fascist propaganda here has
three purposes: First, support of
the Fascist policy; second, attempt
ing to show that democracy is un-
workable: third, that the American
system of government is corrupted
and incapable of solving our prob
lens, and that I'VE need a good me-
chanic like MuSsolini or Hitler"
