CHICAGO. June 8.-The Cubs
beauty and the beast episode, star
ring Rip Russell and Jimmy Foxx,
has reached climax like any good
fairy story and Manager Jim Wilson
hopes there will be happy ending.
FoxX, who joined the Cubs a week
ago. yesterday took possession of
first base, while its former owner
Russell, moved over to second.
The shift left Lou Stringer. reg
ular second sacker, out in the cold
waiting for his bat to get warm.
But to add color to the perpleXity.
Stringer came back as a pinch
hitter in yesterdays double header
with Brooklyn and got timely hit.
Now the fans are starting to wonder
all over again what will be done
with Stringer To add to the con-
fusion. Phil Cavarretta. who is no
stranger at the initial bag for the
Cubs, is holding down an outfield
post.
Foxx, affectionately dubbed 1.-The
beast" by his mates. played both
games of the twin bill, got one hit
and batted in a run.
Russell, who has been making
himself noticeable by banging out
three home runs, one of which
cruised over the fence with the
bases loaded, yesterday contributed
two blows.
Russell may be used as touring
player-at one spot one day and at
another the next. This season he
has been used on first, second,
third and in left field.

CLENCARRY CAPS FOR US. RANGERS
Like Those Worn By Old ROgas Rangers; Methuen,
 Mass, Interested

Methuen, Mass, Sept. 4 - UP0 -The American Rangers who par ticipated in the recent Dieppe com mando raid will wear "Glengarry" caps like those worn by the origin al Rogers Rangers if Secretary of War Henry L. Stimson approves a proposal made today.
 President James K. Selden Of the Methuen International Mills, who submitted the plan to Stimson, said 1t was appropriate that the caps be manufactured in Methuen since this was the birthplace of Major Robert Rogers and the town where he or ganized the 'Methuen Rangers" that later became Rogers Rangers.
 selden told the United Press he had discussed his plan with Ken- meth Roberts and that the Maine author who chronicled the exploits of Rogers Rangers in Northwest Passage" heartily endorsed the idea.
 Tn his letter to stimson. Selden said that since the Rangers at Diep- pc obviously were the forerunner of specially-trained corps, it would seem fitting that they have some distinguished insignia or article Of clothing"
 "Of course. the original Rogers Rangers wore Q 'Glengarry' or Scotch cap Of green wool. As this Is similar to the present overseas cap except in color. this would seem to be appropriate historically and practically"
 Selden said his mills would be pleased to present a cap to each of the Dieppe Rangers, and asked stimson's approval of the gift.
