By LEO MACDONELL

CLEVELAND, July z. With
their mastery over the National
League once again demonstrated
in conclusive fashion, the tri-
lumphant American Leaguers were
here today prepared to engage
Mickey Cochrane's service team
in a game for the Army and Navy
relief under the lights tonight.
A great crowd of $4,000 or more
is expected TO see tonight's spec
tacle in Cleveland's gigantic mu-
nicipal stadium. The contest is
booked TO get under way at 9
O'Clock.
! With Lou Boudreau the out
standing hero of the American
League teams victory over the
Nationals, 81. in the annual all
star game in New York last night,
the Cleveland game takes on
special significance.
Besides exploding a mighty home
run, one of three in the game,
Boudreau's play at shortstop was
astounding, an exhibition that gave
the Gotham crowd of 1854 plenty
TO cheer about. Lou was the first
man TO bat in the game.

honors with the Cleveland man.

the senior circuit boys from the
added embarrassment of a shutout.
JUST BEAT BLACKOUT
The game ended at 9:28, Just
two minutes before New York was
plunged into Commute test
blackout. The big crowd, there
fore, was forced to sit I'm the
stands until the lights came on
at 10 minutes to 10.
Spud Chandler and AL Benton
went the route for the triumphant
Americans, the Yankee finger be-
ing credited with the victory.
Chandler hurled four innings, dur
ing which he gave up but two
singles, one of them a scratch.
One Of the four hits off Benton
was a scratchy affair.
The Nationals used four hurlers,
Mort Cooper, Johnny VanderMeer,
Claude Passeau and Bucky Wal

The echo of Boudreau's thunder
Gus homer had hardly died away
when Tommy Heinrich doubled to
right center, the ball swishing into
a puddle of water and giving the
Yankee outfielder chance TO
reach second before Pete Reiser
could get up to it.

REAR NOT THE GHOST
AGAIN.!

Recently an editorial appeared
in local newspaper asking that
Dickinson County be plagued
with a state cop. How sool' some
of us forget! We venture tre
prediction that the majority of
citizens of our good county will
never forget the type of state
cop which descended upon us
in droves but a few years ago
during "The Battle of Clinchco. ;"
If this be the type of state cop
requested by the country editor,
God forbid another such plague.
Never again do we want our
civil liberties suspended in Dick
enson County.
We advocate law enforcement,
but The Herald will never carry
a brief for the type Of cop con-
ceived and nurtured by the
Ex-Colonel Battle and his i'm
mediate henchmen. Dickinson
County breathed a sigh of relief
when the troopers" departed
after months ''educationaT
work.. It breathed deeper sigh
when Governor Darden sent the
Colonel on his way soon after
taking office.
Don't send Dickinson County
back into mourning again over
the return Of such a plague.
'sRear not the ghost again" But
if worse should come to worse
and cop appear in our midst
on permanent assignment, he
might be used to curtail needless
travel by those persons allowed
tires for "the performance OF
essential services" by preventing
them from visiting Uncle Jake
and Grandma Martha after work
ing hours, on week-ends and
while other persons are doing
everything possible to conserve
their thick tires.
We learned about the Gestapo
from them.

Citizens 10 Investigate
Chever|y Hospital Plan

Fred w. Cast, president of the
Cheverly (Md) Citizens Association,
today was to appoint a special COM
mittee to inquire into the erection
of county hospital in the town.
While no deflnate decision was
taken by the association at recent
mass meeting, Mr.. Cast expressed
the opinion that construction of the
hospital would result in a large
number of INDECENT transients pass
ing through the town.
William A. Carson. president of
the. Prince Georges County Board of
Commissioners, said, however, that
the hospital would have to carry
itself" and that county physicians
would send their patients to the
hospital in Cheverly instead of hav-
ing them admitted to Washington
institutions.
This point also was emphasized
by DR.. James T. Sasser, president of
the county medical society, who
denied the proposed county hospital
would be "overrun by undesirables. :"
In stating that the attitude of
those at the meeting apparently
favored construction of the hospital
in Cheverly, Mayor John Raymond
Fletcher revealed that the Town
Council had been asked by Mr.. Cast
to pass a resolution opposing the
project, but had refused. Mayor
Fletcher added that he was in favor
of the proposed hospital.

Only so Delegates
Of Lost Session Sought
To Be Reelected
BY the Associated Press

ANNAPOLIS, Md, Sept. 18.-
More than half of the 223 members
OF the House of Delegates convening
in Annapolis next January will be
persons who were not members of
the last Assembly.
At least 63 faces in the lower
branch of the General Assembly will
be new ones, but the reason for the
large turnover isn't necessarily that
voters. were dissatisfied with their
former delegates.
Only go members out of the last
sessions roster of 120 sought renom-
ination and election, an Associated
Press survey of primary results
showed today.
Just so Democratic Delegates
sought denomination, and Al of them
were successful This was in con-
trast to the State Senate. which has
only % members, but which lost at
leave seven of its present members
through primary defeats.
AL 10 Republican Delegates who
sought to return to Annapolis were
successful in the party primary.
Next years House of Delegates,
rejecting the States Increased pop
ulation, will have 1913 members in
stead Of the 120 Of the last session.
The increase of three, which fol-
lowed the 1910 census, is distributed
among three counties. Dorchester
County will have four Delegates in
stead of the former three, and both
Frederick and Montgomery Counties
will have the maximum-six-as
against five in former years.
