THAT CATCH AGAIN

Last season in Chicago, Ned
Harris caught a long foul fly ball
in the left field corner. That catch
practically made history. for II was
the last inning. there was one out,
score tied and runner on third,
who dashed home TO win the game
for the White Sox. 1t was what is
so unpleasantly referred to as a
bonehead play No ball player re-
sents being called a bonehead, If

At the time l wondered if that
play had ever been discussed with
Harris, or if he had ever seen II
come up before. Oh yes, major

ropes. Why talk about elementary
things? Players are supposed 10

Pefain Promises Legion
Greater Share in Rule

By the Associated Press.
VICHY, Unoccupied France, Feb.
5.-Marshal Philippe Petain yester-
day promised his only authorized
political party, the French Legion,
that it would share greater respon-
xibilities and privileges in his adj
ministration.
The chief Of state admitted to
officers Of the legion-which never
has been recognized in German
occupied France-that both local
authorities in the unoccupied zone
and the general public had exhibited
an indifference or yelled hostility"
to the legion which he created last
August to aid Gin the national
revolution"
But he declared the legion-in
contrast to some politicians who
have been unable to change their
habits"-had absorbed what Il have
given the French people through my
messages"
So Marshal Petain said he pro-
posed to correct this situation by
creating an "elite OF Legionnaires
who will be called up in greater
number within the consultative
councils Of state and In divers adj
ministrative bodies"
Each vichy ministry also will have
. naison man in the legion, he said.

1000 Cabs 10 Pool
Phone Call System,
Citizens Are Told
Six Companies to Join
Plan, Public Utilities
Forum Audience Hears

Taxi companies controlling ap0u'
1000 cabs are planning to pool their
telephone dispatch stations within
q fortnight, it was revealed last
night at the Public Utilities Forum
Details we're outlined by John H.
Roger, president Of the District As
ISOLATION of Taxicab Owners, but
the idea was credited to Gregory
Hankin, chairman Of the Public
Utilities Commission, who told the
Audience of his own experiences In
phoning frantically but vainly for
taxi service.
This step will follow up another
experiment inspired by Mr.. Hankin
in q campaign to put Washington
taxis into the mass-transportation
business. On Monday large pro-
portion of the cabs will begin a
pickup service" in which two, three
or four passengers may be picked up
by a single vehicle within the first
two zones during rush hours and
discharged at various points along
the route at rete of 20 cents each.
May Have Drivers Shifts.
Mr.. Hankin indicated to his forum,
made up of citizens association rep
resentatives, that his program also
may put the city's cabs into 24-hour
operation, with shifts of drivers to
man them. He did not elaborate on
this idea.
The pickup service" will continue
for 80 days as an experiment au-
thorized by the Public Utilities Com
mission. Mr.. Roger said that the
pooling of dispatching facilities will
require no approval by the commits
sion, though it was originated by Mr..
Hankin. AL cab companies were in
vited, Mr. Roger told reporter. but
those deciding to pool resources are
the Bell, Premier, Yellow, Arrow,
Washington and Checker COM
panies.
Speaks Over Radio.
Mr.. Hankin told the forum he
came "in happier mood than q
month ago." largely because a cross
town DOS line mas peen eSIapllSueo.
A number Of representatives then
engaged in debate over which civic
group had first thought of such a
line, while other members of the au-
dience cried out, who cares?"
Earlier In the evening Mr.. Han
kin had discussed his taxi pickup
scheme over Station WJSV, charg-
ing that opponents have already
started a campaign Of sabotage"
One of their methods, he declared,
is to SAY that women will not be
safe in a pickup service taxicab."
This is indeed pulling" he COM
mented.
During the forum he again indi-
Gated his belief that there are some
people who would like to thwart him.
His concluding word to the audience
was:
"Au I have to do is to make few
mistakes in procedure and then my
name will be mud"

Beginning Monday. the city's
new street ordinance goes into

are liable TO prosecution.
Paving the way for the innova-
ton. that finds many officials q bit

warning tickets to violators.
The highest percentage OF the
tickets according to Traffic Direc-

went to persons who stepped from
street curbings without looking
to right or left.
This, said Juergens, Is a fault
which he hopes can be corrected
by the new law. Sixty per cent
of all pedestrian accidents occur
