T'HE essence of Mr.. Churchill's
l. speech TO Parliament Is that
Churchill-Stalin agreement
has been formed determining
the spheres of Russian and
British influence in Europe.
Mr.. Churchill did not disclose
whether such an agreement
governs the future of the OAR
danelles or whether Iran has
been divided between Russia
and England as that country
was divided when il was called
Persia.
Perhaps something concern
ing that will be said in Mr..
Churchill's next speech.
The fact is. however. that
Soviet Russia has pushed into
the five northern provinces Of
\ Iran and seems 70 be there to
stay.
It is clear that Greece and
Italy are in the British sphere;
Finland, Latvia, Lithuania,
Esthonia, Poland, Rumania, Bull
garia, Yugoslavia, Czecho-Slo-
vakia and Hungary are in the
Russian sphere.
Nothing indicates in which
sphere Germany is to be. Nor
is there word about the
American sphere. We have con-
tributed lend-leass, relief and
the huge American Army.
DUT Mr.. Roosevelt has only
- been kept informed. Mr..
Churchill does not state that
Mr.. Roosevelt has accepted
these spheres: he does not even
say that Mr.. Roosevelt has con-
sented to anything.
All that he lsays- is that Mr..
Roosevelt has been kept in
formed.
Poland has been switched
from one conqueror 10 another,
but has not been liberated
and Mr.. Roosevelt has been
kept informed.
Precisely what information
was given to Mr.. ROOSEVELT
Was he informed before or
after Europe was divided into
spheres of influence Did he
know about the spheres Of in
fluence before or after Dunbar
ton Oaks?
Did Mr.. Hull know about all
this when he sold Dumbarton
Oaks 10 Mr.. Dewey via Mr..
Dulles?
y Did Mr.. Roosevelt pass this
information on to Senator Van
denberg before the senator de-
livered his magnificent speech,
which is at the moment mean
ingleSs for all his good inten-
tions-for If Europe is divided
between Russia and Britain,

national setup? Isn't every
thing set up already

Wilson Visions Broad
Program in Big Ten

CHICAGO, May Kenneth l.
(Tug) Wilson today assumed Office
as the second athletic commissioner
in Western Conference history, Sue
ceeding the man who helped him
start his athletic administrative
career quarter of a century ago.
Wilson, 48, one-time olympic
javelin thrower and athletic direc-
tor at Northwestern University for
20 years, formally replaced the late
Maj. John L. Griffith approximately
five months after the original Big
Ten boss died at his desk of heart
attack last December 7.
Predicting mushroom growth in
enrolment at Big Ten schools after
the war, Wilson emphasized the
need of "a broadened and intelli-
gent athletic program in which all
students may compete
Most Big Ten schools. he said
plan to expand their football pro-
grams with regular schedules, ar
ranged for 150-pound and reserve
teams. Swimming, tennis, golf and
wrestling will be made available tc
greater numbers, while hockey may
be adopted as a standard conference
sport. Track coaches, Wilson said
already have sought to broaden the
competitive base of that sport by
scheduling more dual meets.

Washington will have a chance
to decide between roller skating
and ice-skating shows tonight when

into Uline Arena for six-day stand.
First curtain is at $50.
Acclaimed as hit wherever it

of 125 performers featuring every
thing from bicycle act, which ism t
strictly skating, to juggling on
wheels. Gloria Nord, blue-eyed
brunette. is the star of the show
and, judging by the advance public
ity, isn't hard to look at.

weary from chasing drives all over
Yankee Stadium the two games
slated here could be plenty tough.
Rain Might Help Griffs.
Perhaps only rain could bring
some relief. But a postponement to-
day or tomorrow would compel the
Mats to remain here over Thursday
for possible play, which wouldn't
help much, for the Washington
club is slated to take on the AS in

BY JACK HAND,

nocoSlotCu 3Acos opoItS
If pitching in the early games
tells the story, the Detroit Tigers
and Chicago Cubs are headed for an
October World Series date.
While the Bengals have been
slapping the ball at a 281 clip, Dizzy
Trout, Al Benton and Hal New
houser have been throttling their
American League opponents with a
measly 1893 batting average.
Six of Charley Grimm's Bruin
hurlers have tossed winning COM
plete games in II starts and four of
them, have been five-hitter or lower
Tops in both circuits is the one-hit
effort by Hank Wyse against Pitts
burgh, spoiled only by Rookie Bill
Salkeld's eight-inning single.
The home-run ball has not been
troublesome to either Detroit or Chi
cago. the Tiger staff having blanked
the long distance sluggers and the
Cubs yielded only a pair. Every
mound crew has given up at least
one circuit clout, except Steve
ONeills gang.
Derry Is Yank Homer Ace.
Russ Derry belted half the New
York Yankees total of eight homers,
high In the American, but their
rivals across the Harlem River, the
New York Giants, have collected 13
and the Boston Braves II, thanks to
Butch Nieman and that shortened
right-field wall.
Nine shutouts have been pitched
in the National, three by Chicago
with Claude Passeau, Bob Chapman
and Wyse each contributing one. OF
the seven hurled in the American
Detroit has three, two by Trout and
one by Benton.
Things were SO tough during
spring training days, Grimm had tc
borrow Veterans Hod LiSenbee and
Guy Bush from the Reds so they
could play an exhibition. Now his
average of two moundsmen a day is
not far behind the Brooklyn figure
of II pitchers in 10 contests. De-
troit used only 13 in nine tilts.
Pirate Pitchers Fragile.
Pittsburgh's slow start can be at
tributed to failure of frankie
Frischs tossers to 60 the route, only
three complete performances by II
starters. The Bucs have only two
circuit clouts, but that's better thar
the world champion St. Loui.
Cards who still are looking for theil
first homer.
Of last years six 20-game win
ners only two have more than one
victory to their credit. Bill Voiselle
of the Giants and Trout each have
30 records but Rip Sewell of Pitts
burgh and Newhouser are struggling
along with 1-2 marks. Bucky
Walters of Cincinnati hasn't won in
four starts, being charged with two
defeats, and Mort Cooper of the
Cards got away to slow start after
his salary dispute and has only one
victory
The Phillies' pitching has been
almost as shaky as the Pirates.

Ring Physicians Here
Want Pay Increase

Examining physicians for the Dis
trict Boxing Commission evidently
are going to get an increase in fee
or else raise howl that will be
heard up on "the Hill" where some
thing can be done about it.
Two of the three commissioners,
Chairman Claude Owen and Thomas
Morgan, receive s2,4OO a year for
their services, while physicians
whose work is infinitely more re-
sponsible. are paid paltry $40 a
day. If the doctors worked every
week. which is not the case, they
would receive a total of only 81 ,04O.
or less than half the stipend paid
the commissioners.
This discrepancy has been called
to the commissions attention but
thus far the latter have agreed
merely to look into the matter. The
next move will be a canvass of other
boxing jurisdictions to compare fees
paid examining physicians, but there
is no indication when the result will
be announced. A doctor is required
to give up about two hours in the
afternoon, and at least three at
night when he works for the COM
mission.
Protests have been heard continu-
ously since two of the three COM
missioners were placed on a salary
basis of the inequality of compen-
sation paid official members of the
Boxing Board in comparison with
work done. Referees and inspectors
who have been most responsible for
whatever progress boxing has made
in this jurisdiction. long have been
regarded as woefully underpaid.
