Representative Folger
Dies Of Injuries
After Collision
North CuroIinu Democrat
Had Been Judge and
National Committeeman

Representative AlonZo D. Folger,
Democrat, of North Carolina died
last night of injuries received in an
automobile accident near his home
at Mount Airy, N. C.
The Associated Press reported
that g. brother, Fred Folger. said he
believed the 53-year-old Representa-
tive had a fainting spell before his
car collided with another. He had
been suffering from asthma and a
spray for treatment of the condi-
ton was found in the car.
Representative Folger was elected
to Congress in 1888 and renominated
last year without opposition. He
had been a trustee of North Caro-
lima University and State Superior
Court judge He resigned the latter
position after serving two months
and became a Democratic national
committeeman and State director
of finance for the National Com
mittee.
He was first named to the Ma
tional Committee in 1886 by unani-
nous vote at the State convention,
and was reelected by unanimous
vote of the North Carolina delega-
ton at the national convention in
Chicago last summer. He also was
a member of a committee chosen to
make recommendations to the 1910
convention regarding reappointment
of delegates.
An attorney, he was a member
Of the House Banking and Currency
Committee.
Surviving are the widow and two
sons, A. D. Folger, jr., 16, and Jack
Folger, 13.

NEW YORK, June 5--The Brook lyn Dodgers may win the National League pennant with a $l00 ball player in center field.
 He's Harold tPete) Reiser.
 Scout Ted McGrew signed Pete for Larry MacPhails Dodgers three years ago for a single century note. Reiser was uncovered in baseball school conducted by the St. Louis Cardinals and played in l937 for Newport in the Northeast Arkansas League but when Commissioner Kenesaw Landis declared Reiser and other Cardinal hands free agents the Dodgers signed him.
 He played some with the. Dodg- CTS last year Manager Leo Duro- cher started the l94l campaign with him in center field.
 In late May he was hitting around 300 after being out witn an injury he suffered when he bumped into fence chasing a fly The Dodgers wouldn't take $100,00o for him now.
 Reiser is the latest of many
 "chicken-feed" priced players
 who have turned out t0sbe stars
 and have helped balance the
 budget for owners who were
 stuck with demons" that cost
 fabulous sums - such as De-
 troit's $75.OOO Freddie Hutch
 inson who hasn't yet been able
 to make the major league
 grade.
 There's Frank Mccormick, voted the National Leagues most valuable player in 1940. To get this husky first baseman, the Reds paid only train fare from New York's Bronz to the Cincinnati farm at Beck ley, w. Va.
 Cecil Travis, Washington infield- CT who was leading the American League with a batting average oi better than 400 after. the first month of play, cost $205. That's what owner Joe Engel of Wash ington's Chattanooga farm clut paid him when Travis signed for professional ball. ~' Barney McCosky, hard-hit- ting center fielder, didn't cost
 the Tigers a dime. He was signed off the Detroit sandlots.
 Barney was promised a bonus if he made the big leagues and
 later got $5,OOO.
 Bob Teller, discovered by Q Cleveland scout, originally cost the Indians nothing, but wher Commissioner Landis investigated his case the Tribe paid Milwaukee $7,5OO.
