II FAIL TO SHOW
 UP FOR HEARING

Two United States naturalization examiners were added to the Ave who yesterday conducted hearings on 30 applications for citizenship papers, in superior court. Although fifty were scheduled to appear at Mondays examinations, eleven were not in evidence.
 Today seventy-five applicants have been listed for hearings, and the same number is looked for each day of the two remaining. Wednes- day and Thursday. Superior Court Clerk George H. Freeman is pre- siding over the session, and has been temporarily replaced for court trials today by Atty. John S. Mcn- agan. The hearings are under way on the third floor of the court house building, at the corner of Kendrick and Leavenworth streets.
 Federal examiners quizzing the applicants are: M. Gerrig, S. Crosby, J. Hennessey, D. Gold and Miss A. Donahue, all of Boston; P. McHugh of Cincinnati and Y. Rudnick of Pittsburgh.
 Mr. derrig said today that no in- structlons had been received by the Bureau of Naturalization with rec gard to the present war situation. Orientals are not eligible for eitl- zenship, Mr. Gerrlg said, and only in the event that war Is declared against a power or powers other than Japan, is the normal status of naturalization apt to be affected.

Get Him Down

PHILADELPHIA, June 5-(P
Don't get the idea that Deacon
Bill McKechnie is down in the
mouth these days what with his
world champion Cincinnati Reds
in fifth place " games behind
the leading Brooklyn and ST.
Louis clubs.
OF course his star hitter Frank
Mccormick is batting mere
.23O. His great third stacker Bill
Werber is in the hospital for OBJ
servation because of water on
the knee and the rest of the out
At isn't hitting enough to scare
a cat off the back fence.
But McKechnie is cheerful
one might even say enthusiastic
over the Reds chances. just
ask if there's any hope of retain
ing the National league pennant
and hear him 60 to town.
II should say we have de-
clares Bill. Look back at the
records. We always get hot the
latter part of the season when
the weather gets hot. That's
when we play our best ball.
After the all-star game last year
we were in second place and we
won the pennant with plenty to
spare.
1--WE get started. My club
looks fine now. And if Thompson
and Wander Nicer can team along
with Walters and Derringer
we'll be right up there. Thomp-
son looked good his last time
out. Wander Nicer is getting
steadier and better all the time
/ think he's in for great sea-
SON."
What about the Dodgers and
Cards?
They're two fine clubs but
they haven't hit a real SLUMP
yet. That's when our fine pitch
ing and tight defense will tell.
81 think Werber will be back
in a few days and then we'll be
all set. No don't count us out OF
the race by any means. We just
aren't hot vet"
