Pasha finally gained the fall as

Billings was fofced to surrender.
Pasha gained the second fall. also
but only after another round OF an

Twice he had Billings arm wrapped

Greis, Detroit, broke the hold with
a right to the jaw. The first fall

The third match OF the current
wrestling season at the Local so
auditorium. Friday night was the
most entertaining yet staged there.
The preliminary OF a double main
event was won by Rene LaBelle. a
Professionalism from Toronto, as
he pinned Detroit's Billy Beard af-
ter losing the first fall.
In twelve minutes OF the first
fall, Beard pinned the Canadian af-
ter a series of body slams. which is
accomplished by lifting the oppon-
ent over the head and depositing
him with a slam on the mat. Six
minutes after the second fall had
started, La Belle gained one fall
the same way, and finally won the
match twelve minutes later after
series OF grasshopper kicks.

matched Drawn as well as brain.
Pasha is a born and bred Turk,
wears a wiry beard, has his head
shaved to the scalp and wrestles
barefoot Billings took advantage (
all these traits as he stepped on
the Turks toes in the first fall
Later in the same fall, Billings got
a deadlock on Pasha, walked over
to the Turks corner, picked up his
slipper and proceeded to beat him
over the head with it. More than
once Billings threw Pasha by the
whiskers and once so violently that
he threw him out Of the ring. Out
side the ring, the Turk grabbed a
public address microphone. appar-
emily to throw 1t at Billings but the
time keeper interfered. He then
picked up a chair from the audi
ence and fired that ringward but II
struck the dangling microphone
cord before it hit its intended mark.

ShutOuf Plaque flinders Baseball
Philadelphia
Blanks Boston

New York, Apr. 24-INS-After
the Philadelphia Athletics officially
branded the 1913 baseball as hav-
ing a blutwurst center. through the
medium Of yesterdays 5 to 0 shut
out over the Boston Braves, the
fans will no doubt be eager to rush
TO the ballyards today to watch the
continuance of what is now known
as the "shutout plague.
The AS performance marked the
seventh blank-out in IL official
games, and with both leagues rea-
dy today to play their first full
schedule the shutout plague will
continue. The crowds, however,
promise TO be luch bigger than
they were yesterday, If only for
the fact that there was only one
game to be seen yesterday and the
sole crowd numbered 2,Sl9.
Today's schedule is as follows:
American League-Chicago at
St Louis; Detroit at Cleveland;
Washington at New York; Boston
at Philadelphia.
National League-New York at
Boston; Philadelphia at Brooklyn;
Pittsburgh at Chicago, St. Louis at
Cincinnati.
The Athletics won yesterday
through the pitching of Russ Chris
TOPPER of the AS, and Lum Harris,
who relieved the bleaguered Russ
in the eighth inning. This brought
up the As average to a magnificent
1888. Which is not quite as good
as the AS final average for 1912,
which was a solid 1857, best in the
league II one views the standings
while standing on his head.
The reason for lack of life In
the 1913 ball which was forwarded
Yesterday by Lou Coleman, vice
president of A. G. Spaulding Co.,
lies in the inferior rubber cement
used between layers OF wool in the
ball. The cement, Coleman said,
hardened to point where the
wool in the ball was affected.
This brought an end to the fur
ious gripping. demands for action
and elaborate tests Of the ball
brought about by its performance to
date. From Maine to California
and upper Michigan to Louisiana,
people were dropping the 1912 and
1943 balls off buildings. side by
side, to see how their bounce COM
pared. The tests brought out the
fact that the ball was 25 per cent
deader than the 1892 sphere.
However, hitless batters and run
less teams will have to put up with
the ball as il is for at least two
weeks. That's how long it is 60
ing to take to replace the dead balls
with the new, livelier ones. In the
meantime, a home run will be re-
garded as a precious parity.

Traffic Schools

Three years ago Kansas City established a
traffic school under SUPERVISION Of the traffic
and safety divisions of the police department,
the municipal court and the safety council.
Since the start II, 1000 motorists have attended.
Figures are not available but it is fair to
think that the training they have received
has brought some improvement. in the city's
traffic situation.
Though most of the students are those re-
CURED to attend for violating traffic regula-
tlons anyone may attend Voluntarily Sessions
are held one night week in the municipal
court. Causes Of accidents. basic factors in
safe driving, good driving practices, traffic
regulations and rules OF the read and other
problems Of traffic safety are covered in the
curricula. Formerly, only two sessions have
constituted the course; however, the number
OF classes required for gradual On may be in
rounded program of traffic education.
The first class is conducted by an officer
OF the police department familiar with traffic
problems and causes of accidents. His lecture
is followed by motion picture entitled Speed
Plus Carelessness Equal DEATH" demon
stratlon OF the drunkometer and another movie
explaining major causes Of accidents. Left
turns, backing, parking. entering intersections.
etc., are described to tine students; the class
then is turned into an open forum
At the second session the city's brake test
ing device, various speed checks and the tele.
phone and stop watch systems are explained
and an examination is given. card signed
by the chief of police ard one of the municipal
court judges is given to those who pass the
written test
Other successful traffic schools have been
established at Louisville, Los Angeles, Berke-
ley, Long Beach and number Of other larger
cities, the association said.

Stop The footing

After a year and more Of blessed freedom
from an old source OF great annoyance, Will
ningtons peace, particularly at night, is again
being disturbed by HON tooters The horns
may not be honking more at night than by
daylight, but because the night is dedicated
to rest it seems so. When blast is heard
at midnight and later, its rancousness reaches
the highest pinnacle of offensiveness. And it
is not infrequent that such blast is heard.
The unnecessary use OF motor vehicle horns
is prohibited by law. Only in case OF actual
necessity, to prevent accident, is it legal to
sound the horn.
Obviously, with drivers lapsing from strict
observance of the law, it is incumbent upon
the police to gather offenders into court. 1t is
also the duty of househoiders to report to
the police all violations that come under their
observation, giving a detailed statement Of
the location and time, and the license num-
Der displayed on the offending vehicle
The police cannot restore the peace and
quiet that prevailed after the anti-noise cru

More Air Blows

The question heard continually as men meet
and stop to chat is. 'T1ow long do you give
Germany?" And the answers are as various
as the question is frequent. Some say until
next spring, some stretch the time to autumn
A few think Germany's collapse may come
by Christmas.
The only conclusion to draw from this talk
about it and bases his view OF his personal
predisposition to be conservative or, led by
surface signs of Germanys weakening, to be
optimistic.
There is middle course which shows that
the Germans, both people and army, subject
to the herd instinct, are as ready to move
backward as ahead. and that once the retro
erosion sets in it will become & stampede
But even with Berlin, the neart of the Reich,
in ruins with the Russians striking new blows,
and the Battle of Italy gcing steadily if slowly.
against them, it would be foolish to assume
Germany's collapse at hand however the man
in the street feels about it,
The Germans gave positive evidence Of their
determination to keep up the fight by their
assault on Cos, Leros and Samos, by which
they closed the Aegean and blocked any Allied
plan for offensive in the Balkans by the Medi-
terranean route. Their fire power, their
strength for attack. are shrinking, but they
have not given up.
The one thing that can speed Germany's
collapse and force unconditional surrender, is
m fry, fIoo Nil -
centers of Similar intensity with the raids of
Berlin. Without lessenng the credit due the
Russians, it is obvious that nothing since the
tide began to turn against Hitler, has brought
Germany's downfall so near as the RATS
attack on Berlin. It is equally obvious that
no land attack could have achieved so well
and with such little loss to the attackers.

Give Money, War Stamps

So much of the Joy OF Christmas lodges in
the giving of presents that the scarcity of
so-caHed consumer goods this year, particu-
larly of toys, presents a problem that keeps
many awake beyond bedtime hunting a solu-
ton.
The situation is not relieved, either, by the
request Of the postal authorities to move all
Christmas mail in November, now so near
the end Probably not one in ten people have
found satisfactory presents or, if they have,
have placed them in the mails
There are two ways out OF the difficulty.
One is to give money The other, and better,
one is to give war stamps Nor, if you can
afford it, war bonds. They occupy little space
in mail bags. They'll not overburder carriers.
And in the case Of children especially they
will encourage increasing investments. Leave
it to the youngsters to induce dad to buy
stamps to fill blank spaces in the folder.
BY this means sales of bonds will be in
creased and the war program additionally fl
nanced.
Large purchases of stamps for bestowal a
Christmas can provide a fine start for thu

airy 10, in which the national goal is $14, 1000,

the central salient of the line which
has now reached Rionera.
Nearer the coasts, the terrain is
cut of small rivers flowing from
the central Apennines to the sea,
forming northeast-southwest val
leys at right angles to the coast
Between small coastal plains at the
river-mouths rugged mountains
rise-lateral branches of the Apen-
rine system reaching to the sea. AS
the Germans retreat they form de-
tense lines first along the rivers,
then along the intervening heights.
On the Adriatic side these rivers
are the Biferno, Trigno, Sangro
and Pescara. On the western side
the Volturno and Garigliano slow
tie Allied pace. North of the Carl
gliano the Aurunci Mountains rise
tc 5000 feet and have only one
pass. The lower Ausoni Mountains
form the final barrier to the Pom
tine lowlands, the plain of Rome,
and Rome itself.
Best transportation routes fol-
low the coasts. One motor road and
one railroad cross the Italian Pen
insula in the immediate vicinity Of
the battle front. The railroad is
only partly in the Allied hands, but
with the capture of Agnone the
road fell completely within Allied
territory. Many highways, good
and bad, crisscross the area of
the battle lines.
Besides the coastal lines, only two
north-south railroads cross the bat
tie front. One follows the ancient
Via Casilina from Naples to Rome;
the other is in the center of the
peninsula, connecting Benevento,
Isernia and Sulmona.
