POLISH REGIMES
TROUBLES MOUNT

LONDON, Nov. Is. -P- Pc
lands peasant party brushed of:
today plea for its participation
in a new coalition cabinet, rails
ing acute doubts that the tenacious
but troubled exiled government
could survive the gravest OF Its
many crises.
Plain-skopen, peasant-born Stan
islaw Mikolajczyk-long the hope
and link for fraternal peace In
Poland and for accord between MS
country and Soviet Russia-led his
peasant party out of the coalition
today just a day after he resigned
as prime minister.
The decision left Jan Kwapian-
ski, Socialist premier-designate,
with the task of forming a gov
eminent from among leaders OF
his own party and those OF the
christian and national democrats
many of whom have been labeled
anti-Russian by Moscow.
Prospects of finding a workable
group, acceptable to the Soviet
Union and to Britain and the Unit
ed States, were dim indeed, but the
bald, husky new premier plung-
ed into toe task Immediately with
the hope of announcing a cabinet
this weekend.
It appeared certain, however,
that loss of Mikolajczyk and the
peasant party by the exiled gov
eminent would strengthen the
hand Of the rival, Soviet-sponsored
Polish national liberation commit
tee in its bid for recognition as
the administrative authority in lib
Grated Poland.

Armstrong and Perry Bottle
Former Victims in Tune-ups

Both Hammerin' Henry Armstrong
and Anvil Aaron Perry have sched-
uled warmup tests this week before
meeting in the 10-round feature
that opens the 1914 outdoor boxing
season at Griffith Stadium two
weeks from tomorrow night, May %
Tomorrow night at St. Nicholas
Arena, New York, Perry is to meet
Taffy Cummings, colorful British
sailor, in special eight-round main
event, while Armstrong fights a re-
turn bout with Ralph Zannelli in
Boston Friday night Both should
win handily. Armstrong outpointed
Zannelli in Boston bout several
weeks ago. Perry won over Cum
mings here but did not chill the
popular little club fighter.
Hammerin' Hank has held world
championship titles in three divi-
sions, featherweight, lightweight and
welter, while Aaron Perry fights as
junior welterweight.
Harry Garsh, Perry's white-hairec
manager, probably swill bring hi:
fighter back to the Liberty Athletic

talent can be lined up. Otherwise
Perry will remain in New York

Grays Play Improved
Black Yankees in
League Debut

Washington Homestead Grays will
be meeting greatly improved New
York Black Yankee ball club when
they open the 1914 Negro National
League season in today's double
header at Griffith Stadium.
Manager Gus Semler of the Black
Yanks has built a crackerjack in
field around veteran Harry Williams
and old reliable Gene Miller. Mil
Ter, at third, and Williams. one of
the leagues best second basemen,
are expected to give rookie Bert
Baker the confidence he needs to
make him an ace shortstopper Tom
Manning will be at first.
George Williams and Mel Barker,
two flrst-class fyhawks, keep Semler
from worrying about his outfeld,
and good pitching is on tap from
old timers Terris MacDuffie and
Neck Stanley.
The Grays probably will go into
today'S game with the same lineup
that scored 13 straight victories in
spring exhibitions. In all probable
ity Candy Jim Taylor will start with
Cool Papa Bell. Jerry Benjamin and
Dave Whatley in the outfield: Buck
Leonard, Dick Spencer, Sammy
Bankhead and Jud Wilson in the
infield and Josh Gibson behind the
plate.
Indications are that Ray Brown
will draw the pitching assignment
for the Grays in the first game with
the promising rookie, Dave Hoskins,
toiling in the nightcap. 6

Graziano Eyes Perry
In Facing Graham
Here on tuesday

Rocky Graziano wants a shot at
Aaron Perry and there are plenty
of ring fans here who believe the
Rock would give Anvil Aaron a
rough. tough fight. Graziano, who
was fighting his way up in New York
clubs long before Harry Garsh
spotted his find at the Liberty A. c.
gym, has plenty to offer, and some
think he's ready for Perry now.
Hurdles that stand in Rocky's way
are: Cd Freddie Graham in Tues
day nights fight at Turner's Arena
(2) Nick Latsios, who is supposed to
be next in line for Perry, after Arm
strong, and 90 Perry's possible in
duction into the armed forces before
Graziano can work up to him.
In the Graham bout Tuesday
night, Graziano meets a boy of his
own street-f1ghter style. The Rock
has knocked down 26 fighters who
tried to slug it out with him and
he's KO'd 16 of 'em. In his last
fight here Graziano slapped down
the powerful Bobby Brown for a
TKO. and fans still are talking about
that battle.
Goldie Ahearn signed Graziano
some time ago for ball park spot
and is complimenting himself on
the deal, because other promoters,
such as the astute Jack Kearns of
Chicago and Larry Atkins of Cleve-
land, have had look at Graziano
and can see dollar marks all over
the young Italian.
The Graziano-Graham battle, a
10-rounder, was originally scheduled
for tomorrow night, but was moved
to Tuesday because Of the planned
blackout.

appreciable numbers for, according
to Bill Keziah, the run has not pro-
gressed above Cape Fear. Another
week and they will be in.
The best bet for local anglers is
the river fishing, so close it is easily
reached by trolley. The river has
dropped and without further rains
above the Falls will begin clearing
this week. Herring are running
with the tides and since Thursday
good catches of shad have been
made daily on the little Nungessor
spoon made solely for this fishing.
Any day might bring the highly de-
sirable white or American shad and
the last run of white perch.
In view of the. possibility of short
gas rations fishermen would do well
to get all of this fishing they can.

OUTDOORS

With fishing entirely dependent
upon gasoline, not only to get to
the bay points but to run the boats,
an analysis of the situation is in
order. With reasonable rations of
the precious fluid fishing might con-
tinue after fashion. Without it
piscatorial activities will fold up. \
For those who own boats the ra-
ton boards are issuing the usual 2
gallons per horsepower, but there is
no promise they will be allowed to
use it-that like last season it pos
sibly will be frozen in the tanks.
Neither will it be possible for those
lucky enough to reach Chesapeake
ports to get boats at will, for this
year those Maryland county ration
boards will not have the freedom of
disbursement enjoyed in 1943, when
at most any one engaged in any sort
OF fishing received allotments sufi-
cient to last many months.
Pay f6r Unfairness.
Had these boatmen played fair by
turning large percentage of their
catches into commercial channels all
might have been well. Fishing could
have continued in as nearly a nor
NAL manner as the few boats in
commission on the bay would
permit.
Because many abused their priv
ileges 1t looks now as though they
will not be allowed the 40 gallons
a month they are asking. Nor is it
likely the offshore market fishermen
will get the allowance they are seek
ing with the promise of turning into
market channels 80 per cent or more
of their catches.
In simple words the OPA is fed
up on promises and will put out the
necessary fuel only when the boat
men, either commercial or sports
fisherman, produces. That is the
setup in several naval districts and
the plan is working well. What the
final disposition of the problem will
give the fisherman who can get
away for day or two remains to be
seen. Right now 1t Is anything but
promising.
The fact that hardheads have
been taking bait down on the Honga
River for nearly two weeks means
nothing to anglers in this area be-
yond the fact that the fish are in
bay waters and that the catches at
Benedict and on the upper Patuxent
will increase in size and quality;
that within two weeks at the most
they will be taken at West River
and Herring Bay in goodly numbers.
Potomac Offers Opportunity.
A few local fishermen have man
aged to get down to Oregon Inlet
for the run of channel bass which
has been exceptional. They have
