but rather a splendid singing act
reSs and, as such. the role OF the
beautiful Floria Tosca is ideally
suited 10 her talents.
However, she outdid herself
last night, acting with kind of
passion that was as thrilling as
her singing of the second act
"Vissi d'Arte. visi d'Amore," in
which she literally poured her
heart out, as the old cliche comes
and goes.
We overheard some comment
about her over-acting, which we
couldn't quite un ders a n d.

BY CHARLES GENTRY

THE FIRST opera audience of
the season was rewarded with one
OF the finest performances of
Puccinfs "Tosca" Detroit has
ever seen, last night in Masonic
Auditorium.
This was the initial offering OF
the Philadelphia La Scala Opera
Company's series here and, if the
following presentations are equal
to il, this will indeed be a gala
season.
Based on Sardou's fam Gus
melodrama of love and Roman in
trigue al the turn of the nine
teenth century. the Puccini musi-
cal version is one which calls for
high histrionics as we'll as expert
voices.
Last nights performances had
iuekv combination. chiefly
due TO the presence of Grace
Moore in the title role and Alex
ander Sved as the fiend incarnate.
Baron Scarpia. the diabolical
head of the Roman geStapo.
Detroit evening times. (Detroit, Mich) 1921-1958, 1944-09-29

Sved makes a truly sinister
Scarpia and his famous credo in
the first act TIE Deum" was exc
cellently sung. Also. his death
agonies in the second act were
most convincing.
Armand Tokatyan was equally
as convincing as the painter.
CavaradosSi. although his voice
is not equal 10 either the Re
condita" or the "E lucevan le
STEELE" in the last act. Detroit's
own Wilfred Engelman made a
remarkable contribution by sing
ing three roles in three different
acts.

POWERFUL sCARPIA

Sved's Scarpia wasn't far be-
hind. Although his voice lacks
resonance, il is big voice. which
he put TO powerful use as the evil
chief of police who tortures
Tosca's lover and then tries to
force her TO his will.

BEHIND HOME PLATE
BY DOUG STEWART

It's good to see those kids in the
Knothole Gang stands in left field
at all the Owls weekday home
games and Jack Hellane is doing a
swell job with the youngsters. He
has supplied them with plenty of
noise makers and they really put on
a show whenever the Owls stage a
rally. The other night, when l was
over there Ginning with the gang,
Jack pointed out three-year-cld
youngster, with an older brother,
sitting us there as proud as punch
and yelling with the best of them.
Now l would like to see Oren
Sterling, president of the ball club,
go just one step further and allow
the Knothole Gange to see every
home game, instead of restricting
them to weekday games, as at pres
ent.
1 certainly feel that Hagersotwn
should support a winning ball club
and no one can deny that President
Stirling and Manager Brett have
given the fans a ball club, that at
the present time, at least, is far and
away the best club in the league l
also feel that, while there have been
excellent crowds at some of the
games, the day in, day OUT at
tendance is not what it should be.
But l cannot, for the life of me, pic
ture the park being So packed with
cash customers, that it would be
necessary to seat some of them In
the Knothole Gang stands, which,
after all, were put up by the Ha-
gerstown Rotary Club, not to pro-
vide more seating accommodation
for cash customers, but for the pur-
pose for which they are now being
used-to accommodate the Knot
hole Gang.
So how about it, Mr.. Stirling?
Why not tell Jack Hellane to bring
his gang along on Sundays and hol-
idays too?

with a wild pitch and gave up 8
hits, being charged with runs and
the ball game.
The Owls started on their present
road trip with a 4 IL game lead
over the second-place Allentown
Cards and, as this is written, they
have increased their lead to 5 IL
games, having taken two out of
three from the second-place club
Now let's see what happened.
They opened their road trip in
Allentown on Friday night, taking
that game, 8 to S. The game was
halted in Hagerstown's half of the
eighth inning, by heavy electrical
storm and the score reverted to the
end of the seventh. Joe Slotter
started for Hagerstown and got
credit for the win, although Johnny
Flesh Che and Herb Brett are doing
a swell job of relief pitching) had
to come to his assistance in the sew
enth. The Owls had one big inning,
the sixth, when they scored six of
their nine runs, Palkowitz sparkling
the attack with round tripper,
with mate on base. Eight of our
nine runs were driven in in pairs,
Nowak, Palkovitz, Rothman and
Welch each driving in two, with
Martin accounting for the other one
Saturdays game was rained out
and we split Sundays double head
er. In the opener, the Owls were
on the short end of an to score.
Mierkowicz and Palkovitz took per
sonal charge of the scoring, Merky
banging out a four-bagger in the
first inning with two aboard, and
Palky repeating the performance in
the sixth with one on. But Ham
mon was unable to keep the Cards
in check, while Koby, except for
those two home run pitches, had the
Owls pretty well handcuffed.
But in the nightcap, Morgan,
pitching one of his best games, shut
out Allentown, setting them down
with hits, while the Owls were
getting to Urine for bingles, which,
coupled with two Allentown errors,
produced three runs and the ball
game.
No games were scheduled for
Monday night and on Tuesday the
team moved over to Wilmington for
three-game series, before coming
home tomorrow.
Dutch Dorman's club is always
tough 10 beat in their own ball park
and Tuesday night was no exception.
While Carter was pitching shutout
ball, limiting the Owls sluggers to
six scattered singles, the Blue Rocks
jumped on Art Dwyer for eight hits
and four runs during the seven in
nings he was on the mound, adding
two more runs, on two hits, in the
eighth, off the offerings of Bob
Alexander, highlander, who re-

With Allentown winning over
York, Tuesday nights loss reduced

Cards to Az games.

Some sort of record was estab-
lished on Wednesday night, June 81,
in that game between the Owls and
Wilmington, when, in the Owls half
of the fourth inning, nine men came
up to bat, four runs were scored,
but there was only one hit, a hit,
by the way, that was nothing more
or less than misjudged fly. Here's
what happened:
Napoloes, the first man up, struck
out, but Neisler dropped the third
strike. In attempting to throw the
batter out at first, he threw the ball
into right field and Napoloes headed
for second. McConvery recovered
the ball and threw to second, but
Gigliotti let the ball go through
him and Napoloes pulled up at
third. Higgins and Welch both
walked, filling the bases. Thomas,
the Hagerstown pitcher, was up
next and grounded to Patton at
short. He threw to Gigliotti at sec
ond, who let the ball get away from
him, Napoloes and Higgins scoring
on the play. Martin was up next
and while he was at bat, Thomas
went to second on wild pitch.
Martin then flied to right for the
first out, WEIGH scoring after the
catch. Rothman walked and No
wax Topped high fly to center
field, but Dutch Dorman misjudged
the ball and it went for two-bag-
ger Chat was the only hit), scoring
Thomas, with Rothman going to
third Both Thomas and Rothman
were late in running on the play,
because it looked such an easy
catch. Mierkowicz was up next
and struck out, and Palkovitz, the
ninth man to bat, grounded to sec
ond to end the freakish inning.
Summary, 4 runs, hit, 3 errors, 2
men left.

RUSSIANS EXPAND
WEDGE IN HUNGARY
Columns, Striking From
Southeast, Take Ujszasz
Rail Junction

| LONDON, Sunday, Nov. Pip
Russian troops, resuming a power
full drive southeast of besieged Blu
dapest, yesterday moved to within
43 miles of the capital, and also
struck to within II miles of Mis-
kolc, Hungary's fifth city in the
northeast, as they steadily expand
ed their wedge between the Ger
man defenders Of the two prize
cities, Moscow announced L S t
night.
Soviet columns, hitting from the
southeast, captured Ujszasz rail
junction on the northern arm of the
line between Budapest and fallen
Szolonok. Ujszasz is 43 miles from
the capital, whose southern out
skirts still are being fiercely
defended by reinforced German
troops.
Jaszladany, IS miles due east of
Budapest and seven miles north
east of Ujszasz, also was seized,
the Soviet communicate said, Its
capture. put these units within II
miles of a junction with another
column which had taken pely to
the northeast on Friday after cross
ing the middle Tisza river.
Berlin's radio commentators
termed this Soviet drive the most
menacing to Budapest, and termed
it an about offensive aimed at
encircling the capital on the Dan
ube.
In the northeast other units of
Marshal Rodion Y. Malinovsky's
second Ukraine army wideneds their
grip on the Budapest-Miskolc rail-
way and also cut the highway be-
tween the two cities with the seiz-
ure of Szihalom, 81 miles northeast
of the capital.
At the top end of the middle
Tisza front the Russians rolled
through Hejosalonta, II miles south
east of Miskolc, and also took Sa-
jcszoged, 10 miles from their OBJ
jective. These troops were moving
on Miskolc along the west bank of
the Sajo river, tributary of the
yTisZa.
With the capture of Hejosalonta
in the north, Szihalom to the south
west, and the intermediate rail sta
ton of Mezonyarad, the Russians
either were astride or in effective
control of a 25-mile section of the
Budapest Miskolc railWay-a vital
axis artery connecting the German
armies based on Budapest with
those defending eastern Slovakia.

I'VE won a great triumph on Nov.

H. Rose, of Greenville, past North
Carolina Department Commander
of the American Legion, told a
large gathering in front of the City
Hall yesterday morning, in an Ar

won on the field of battle we lost
in postwar lack of VISION" he ad-
ded.
Mr.. Rose declared that the Amer
leans who died in the last great
war did not die in vain. "They died
in a just cause and necessary
cause" he asserted. IF that cause
had failed, our free way of life
would have perished."
Extending Lease
The speaker said that the sacri-
fees gave our. freedom a new lease
on life for "a years, and that this
country was now engaged in a
tremendous effort to extend that
lease. He pointed out that the pres
ent conflict is but the second
phase of the last wharf.-the war 10

of the 1918 arnistice. Mr.. Rose
said there is not tribute high
enough or great enough which we.
the living, can offer those, valiant
soldiers and sailors who gave their
lives in the cause of liberty in the
