Take Fourth
From Browns

Detroit. Aug. 1-AP-The Detroit
Tigers boasted a four-game win
ming streak and Pitcher Hal New
houser was ready TO demand a boz
nus for overtime work today after
staying through his fourth extra
inning game Of the season to beat
the ST. Louis Browns 5 TO 4 in u
frames.
Newhouser. winner II times
against six losses, has hurled all but
one of the Tigers overtime strug-
giles this season. The only one
Detroit failed to win was the one
Hal didn't pitch, and It was the
record-equalling 24.inning tie at
Philadelphia.
Two errors by Bobby Mailer at
third base cost Newhouser an easy
triumph In regulation time yester-
day. One boot put Mark Christman
on base in the second inning, from
where he scored on Gene Moore's
two-run single to give the Browns
a 20 lead.
The other error, In the seventh,
allowed Christman to score the
run that broke a 2-all tie as the
Browns punched three hits with a
walk for two runs that put them
ahead AZ.
Maier helped out with his bat,
however, TRIPPING in the fourth to
score on Bob Swift's single and
getting the first of three Tiger hits
that brought in two runs in the
seventh to tie the count at 4-all.
Jim Outlaw, who took over in
left field for Hank Greenberg in
the late innings, provided the big
blow for Detroit, however, singing
with the bases loaded and one out
in the 18th to break up the game.
Newhouser beat out high bound
err back of the mound to lead off
the inning, moved to second on
Skeeter Webb's sacrifice and took
third when Sig Jakucki walked
Eddie Mayo and Roy Cullenbine in
succession.
Newhouser gave nine hits and
famed seven in the IL innings to
best Jackucki. who yielded IL hits
and four walks in staying the dis
lance.

Another Extension
Asked for Alley Homes

Another years extension OF the
provisions of the Alley Dwelling Act
making it unlawful to use or occupy
any alley dwelling in the District
was suggested yesterday by the
Commissioners in letters to Chair
man Bilbo of the Senate District
Committee and Chairman Randolph
of the House District Committee.
Last year the 1884 act was
amended to extend the provision
making occupancy of alley dwellings
illegal after July /, 1914, to July /
of this year.
The Commissioners recalled that
the extension was voted last year
because of the housing shortage and
because of legislation pending on
slum clearance. They said the
housing shortage still exists and
alley jewellers had no place in
which to go.
John Ihlder, executive officer Of
the National Capital Housing Au-
thority, said yesterday he favored
extension and said it would be i'm
possible to remove the occupants of
an estimated 1,400 alley dwellings.
Estimates of the number of occu-
pants who faced eviction last year
ranged as high as 10000. Mr.. Ihlder
said, however, he doubted if the
average occupancy was more than
five, which would total about 1000
alley jewellers.

Z Judges DisquaIify Selves
In Photographer S Case

After two Municipal Court judges
disqualified themselves yesterday in
the scheduled trial of a street pho
tographer charged with violating po-
lice regulations by standing more
than five minutes in one location,
the case was continued to May "a.
The defendant, Charles Ross, so,
Of 622 Maryland avenue NE, first
came before Judge John P. Nc
Mahon, who sent him to Judge WAL
ter j. Casey. The latter, however,
also said he preferred not to consider
the case, pointing out that Ross had
appeared before him recently on a
similar charge.
Judge Casey had fined Ross Sc
last month when he was brought into
court after his arrest twice the same
day on the same charge.
The defense attorney, James
Shenos, told reporters that the de-
PENDANT has been arrested six times
this year by the same officer, G. w.
S. Miller of the Traffic Department.
He said Ross forfeited IS in February
and was released twice in March
once at the precinct and once in
Municipal Court-before he was
fined on the two charges last month.

Radio Dispatch Of Toxiis Here
To Be I ried by Yellow Cab Co.

The Yellow Cab Co. today was
authorized by the Federal Com
munications Commission to expert
ment for three months in the radio
dispatching of cabs in Washington.
The hookup will allow for two-way
communication between a central
dispatcher and the cab drivers.
The company was authorized to
operate one fixed and two portable
mobile stations on 156,525 and
156,975 kilocycles. The fixed station
will be operated on 100 watts and
the mobile stations on so watts.
The fixed station will be in the
cab company's headquarters, 1901
New York avenue NE, and the mo-
bile units will be placed in taxicabs,
it was said. The firm operates 6l0
cabs here, but an official said he
could not tell just how many cabs
would be equipped with mobile units
during the experimental period.

quarters received a request for cab,
the vehicle nearest the locality of
the request would be sent there by
the headquarters dispatcher. I'm
der the plan, each cab driver would
periodically report his position to
the central dispatcher so they can
be routed to request points as
quickly as possible.
The plan will save considerable
gas and wear on tires, because the
cab nearest the request would al
ways be dispatched, the official ex-
planned.
The system to be employed by the
cab company would be similar in
most respects to that used by the
Metropolitan police. except that a
different wave length will be used.
A similar system for taxicabs has
been in use in Cleveland since last
September, the official said. It is
being operated by the Yellow Cab
Co. Of Cleveland, which is not af-
filiated with the Yellow Cab Co.
here. It was said.
