 Mahap was reluctant to talk of his gridiorn exploits, but eager 10 talk about football past and pres ent. The game Is fundamentally the same, he said, although pass Ing as "opened 1t Up A lot"
 Llnesmen Don't Use Hands
 Liresmen are bigger and heavier, but he believes the college iinesmsn of today do not take full advantage of using their hands on defence.

 New York. July 2i-CUP) -"As Joe DiMaggio goes. 50 go the New York Yankees. That was one or baseballs corniest clichcs at the start of the season. but now the swarthy young outfielder has con vertcd the saying into one of the major leagues' tlmelicst axioms.
 The Yankees. 10 games ahead Of the runncr-up Boston Red Sox, open a l2-gamc invasion of the west at Cleveland tonight and, if DiMaggio keeps his bat laundering at it's current rate, the champions may make this third junket tho most successful of the campaign.
 Joe McCarthy's club came close to disaster on their last western trip. They led by 9 l-2 games their last time out but when they re- turned July the advantage had been shaved to three games. Tn the short space since. they have in- creased their margin to 10 games by winning I2 of IS and Jolting Joe who became Jellynsh Joe to the stadium fans when he fell into one of the worst glumpS of his career, has once again become the clubs best slugger.
 DiMaggio has now hit in l7 con- secutiye games to boost his average to .20i. He began his hitting splurgc in Boston on July and since then has compiled an average of BOO, with 28 hits in 52 times at bat. The Yankees have won B out Of l7 games since then and now boast a winning streak Of nine straight. and a lead that is half game better than the advantage they took with them on their last trip into the west,
 Brooklyn recovered enough from their weekend drubbing at the hands of the Cardinals to blank the Pittsburgh Pirates last night, 50. as Larry French recorded his llth win of the year against only one defeat.

I Local fans cannot remember when two fighters of the caiiber of Cocoa Kid and Irish Eddie Dolau have been booked to appear on the same card, both against capable oppon- enB. Either Cocoa = the worlds fiifth ranking welterweight - or Dolan Is worthy of top billing in any club in the country and, if advance reservations at Mulligan's are any indication, one of the larg- 1 est opening crowds ever to see an inagural card here will be on hand.
 The fistic faithful have been long awaiting the opportunity of seeing Cocoa Kid in action and right now the New Haven negro is just about as "hot" as any fighter that could be brought here after Cocoas win over Dolan last winter in New Haven.
 Irish Eddics just one of many top notchcrs over whom the Kid holds decisions. He's also defeated Norman Rubio, the Albany welter. weight who recently defeated FritziA Zivic; Holman Wiiiiams, Jerry Flor clio, Carl Dell Manuel Villa, Slug. ger White. Wicky Harkins, Freddy Camuso. Winnie Vines and Tony Martin.
 Milo Theodorescu, rugged Rum. anian l60-pounder, will be CocoaL foe Friday night and. as he does in a vast majority of his bouts, will rule the favorite. But Thco- dorescu takes a good punch. h better than fair puncher himgelf, and will enjoy A weight advantage. It will likewose be Milo's first Wa terbury start.
 Dolan will go back into action for the first time since losing. to Cocoa In the companion eight rounder to the Cocoa -Theodorescu bout. Tho local gouthpaw will face Rego Dell, rugged Scranton. Pa. 147-pounder who last winter at Bridgeport turned in several sensational fighb against such opponents az Red Moi felt and Joe 'DeAdartino.
 Tony Gillo of New Haven and Dula Kovach of Naugatuck--a pair of light-heavyweight sluggers--- have been matched in a cix round glove fest that should provide lot of action. Both 0illo and Kovach have always shown desire to mix 1t in their previous appearances here.
 Two four round contests will round out the card.

$4,000 Aliens Seized

Many acts of sabotage and espionage have been
prevented by the Federal Bureau of Investigation
arresting and taking into custody nearly $4,000 enemy
aliens and huge quantities of contraband materials dur
ing the first year of participation in the World
War.
Mr.. F. R. Foxworth Director of the FBI around
New York, says that in addition to the persons
rested 1000 guns 100000 rounds of ammunition 234O
sticks of dynamite AZ codes and ciphers various uni
forms of enemy countries and picture films of pos
sessions have been seized.
Up to this time there has been no general outbreak
of explosions distractions of plants nor has
there been any great interference with manu-
featuring effort This has undoubtedly been due to the
fine work of the FB and other law enforcement agen-
cles In keeping their eyes suspected inhabitants and
preventing them from getting the opportunity to strike
a blow at preparations.
Civilians should cooperate with the FBI Mr.
Foxworth offers these suggestions: Keep your eyes
open, and when you you think is acting
In suspicious report him to the proper author
ties Don't consider every alien necessarily an enemy
OF our country Many of them loyal patriotic citi
zens Don't spread rumors To do so might cause a
great deal of HARM"

Watching 100000 Enemy Aliens

While actual sabotage has been almost non-existent
in the United States Government intelligence agents
are radically Tightening their precautions against the
one million enemy aliens now in the country.
With more than 100000 German, Italian and Japa-
nese Aliens according to the registration only
1924 have been taken under direct government super
vision. This does not include those apprehended in
the recent roundup which is continuing in various
sections of the country and disclosing caches of aerial
photographs, bombermaps of stragetic areas, large
amounts OF small arms, scores of and other
property which enemy aliens forbidden to possess
Another problem that is being given serious con-
sderaton is the immediate removal of the 100000
Japanese living the vital naval base Hawaiian Island
of Oahu The Navy, is understood, is anxious to
cure the wholesale removal of these Japanese. They
argue that if it necessary to withdraw japanese
from the defense of the West Coast it is more
urgent to get them out of the defense of Pearl
Harbor. S.is
The punishment executed upon the German sabo-
tours and the death sentence given the Michigan traitor
is taken grim warning to all enemy aliens that
activity hostile to the United States will not be viewed
minor offense.
While the bulk of enemy aliens in the United
States undoubtedly anxious to avoid any criminal
act it is natural to expect that of them will at
tempt overt hostile acts. The Governments intelli-
gence officers active all the time and steps will be
taken to thwart cooperation with foreign spies and
agents.
