By the Associated Press.
Newark's Bears, who day by day
look and act more like their New
York Yankee owners, took advan-
tage Of q quiet day in the Interna-
tional League yesterday to extend
their lead to six games.
With the schedule and the
weather combining to keep all other
clubs idle, the Bears administered
the eighth straight setback to the
Montreal Royals, 6 to 2.
1t was the eighth victory In nine
games for the Meyer-men.
The Royals, a threat to Newark
only two weeks ago, could score only
twice of George Washburn although
they were the recipients of eight
bases on balls and garnered two
hits in the first three innings.
After Washburn opened the fourth
with two more passes the Bears sent
Randy Gumpert to the mound.
Gumpert avoided any scoring In
that frame and grew better as the
game progressed, disposing Of the
last Is men in q row. He allowed
only two hits In six full innings,
whitfield three and walked none.

Arrives at Time When Events Are CurtoiIed;

par at Burning Tree is 10, and even
the longest holes can be reached IN
two, under usual conditions.
Worsham makes 'em look easy,
for he slugs that ball SO far he is
getting better than sectional repu-
tation as a long hitter. I've seen
him not once but many times, play
the ninth, tenth and sixteenth holes
with a drive and an iron. reaching
the green in two shots. These are
listed on the score card as par-5
affairs, but Seige Gun Worsham
cuts 'em down to long par-4 holes.
Lew is one of the longest OF the
long hitters anywhere, the result OF
constant and steady practice over
the same fairways where Jimmy
Thomson laid the groundwork Tor
his reputation as COLTS longest
hitter.
The young man from Burning
Tree probably will cut himself in
for a slice of the prize dough at
Chicago. If he doesn't there's the
Henry Hurst tourney at Philadel-
phia in September, which may be
the last of the big ones. But even

who have fought underground for
two years: That's the Dutch Army
which Heinrich Himmler, high ex-
ecutioner for Adolf Hitler. has been
sent to the Netherlands to conquer.
Firing squads have by no means
"liquidated" this secret force, which
is organized with military thorough
ness, largely by military men-the
officers of the Queen who had no
real chance to show their worth in
May of 1910.
They have shown 1t since. AS long
as year ago. 18 of them were con-
denned to death by German juri-
dicial uSurpers, sitting on the bench
Of the high court of justice at The
Hague. In the last few weeks, e6
more have been shot, thousands ar
rested.
But Hitler knew the work went on,
so this week he sent Himmler.
Ready to Aid Allies.
Some details of how these secret
organizations function, made avail
able by Aneta, the free Dutch
news agency, show plainly that
neither assassination nor sabotage
Is the real aim of the secret high
command, although both are fire.
