Thousands of fans swarmed around

called out and streets blocked off.
All reserved seats for the three-day
series with the Cincinnati Reds start
ing tomorrow were quickly disposed
of and there was a run on tickets
for the following series with the St.
Louis Cardinals.
The best guesses on the amount
paid the Cardinals in the deal last
night ranged in the neighborhood of
$3.50, 900. The club is certain to get

Medwick, although in a slump al
st. Louis, is batting .3O4. The only
other member of the Dodgers hitting
over 300 is Walker, whose BAT is
the third highest in the National
league. Medwick never has hit less
than .306 for a season, has a lifetime
average of 1888 and reached a peak
of .374 in 1887 when he led the league
in batting and was voted the most
valuable player.
The Dodgers also expect consider

GERMANS CLAIM
FRENCH WILL NOT
DEFEND CAPITAL
Continued From Page One)

The French said they would
fight before Paris, and if neces-
sary, behind the city-but not in
the capital.
With German forces on t h r e e
sides, Germans were certain that
the fate Of Paris would be de.
cided within the next hours"
Paris has not known the march
Of an invader since 1871 when hum
ger forced a capitulation to Prus-
sian siege forces. In 1914 the Ger
man offensive was halted 10 miles
from the city.
Eight Miles Away
A German spokesman indicated
that the vanguard of the present
German enlightenment offensive
was only about, eight miles from
the heart of Paris.
Authorized circles said the ''sur-
render or else" demand likely
would be presented to Paris just
as it was to Warsaw in last Sep
TENDERS Polish campaign and to
Rotterdam in the Maytime inva-
sion of the Netherlands.
Warsaw chose to fight and was
devasted. Rotterdam gave u p
after Germany's stuka dive-bomb-
ers showed what they could do to
the Dutch city. Now it is Paris
turn to decide.
The authoritative Dienst Aus
Deutschland, a commentary, said
that the question of Paris raises
itself with growing urgency" as
the fighting RACES in the immedi'
ate neighborhood.
Germany wishes ind intends to
protect Paris from the destruction
of war, the commentary added,
but this depends on the French
leadership.
The issue is, Dienst Aud Deut.
schland went on, whether tn e
city of Paris as an extensive
stronghold of the French front will
be defended or not.
"For existing alternatives OF de-
struction or preservation the wars
course so far has presented two
striking examples"

ed, remained practically untouch.

Bibber Mccoy, the former Detroit
Tigers catcher, fought his way to an
unpopular two out of three falls de.
cision over strongmap Milo Stein
born in the main bout of the weekly

Mccoy captured the first fall with
a series of fancy body slams that put
the favorite out of commission after
II minutes of ~all-around mat tactics.
After the intermission Steinborn
came back to pin Mccoy in one min.
ute, utilizing his great strength with
a crushing body hold. The final
round was the fastest Of the lot,
with Mccoy finally winning the de-
cision after nine minutes of nip-and-
tuck graphing.
In the semi-finals match, Ellis
Bashara, former Olympics wrestling
star, won a two out Of three falls
match from Bulldog Tommy Marvin.
Bashara took the first heat with a
volley of rights and lefts that ground
ed the 220-pound Marvin, leaving him
an easy prey for the finishing
touches, after "a minutes Of $3.50
tussling. Four minutes was all the
time required for the 224-pound Bull
dog to render the former All-Ameri-
can football star a hapless mass on
the canvas following the application
of a hurting jaw hold. Bashara cap.
tured the final and deciding fall after
