Those stories about Happy Chand- ler's contract troubles seem to have some foundation in spite of denial6 from all hands and it wouldn't be too surprising if Happy decided to become "holdout" and say he could do more good in the Senate than in baseball.

Mrs. K. J. H.: I have been con-
slant reader of your column for
about 8 years. My husband and 1
lived very happily in our home until
his people moved in. They have
about gained control over every
thing here. What shall do, move
or stay on? I believe they would
like to have me put out of the
house. I am terribly worried.
Ans: When relatives can no long
er live together in peace and har-
mOny, it is time for a showdown.
If you were visiting in your rela-
tives' home, they wouldn't allow you
to rule the rOOst and certainly
you are justified in standing up for
your rights in your own home. But
do so in a manner that would cause
no friction between you and your
husband. They are his people, and
let him be the one to ask them to
seek housing quarters elsewhere.
Insist in a firm but tactfuI way that
he do so.
T. S.: I'm 16 years old and a
senior in high school. I don't have
a father, only a mother and she
thinks I am too young to entertain

MuIIigon Miller
 At Hub Tonight

Boston, April 19-UP)-Jimmy Mulligan, southpaW slugger from the Mill City of Lowell, clashes to- night for the third time with Cool idge Miller of Yonkers, N. Y, and confidently predicts he'll have his Negro opponent on the canvas of the Mechanics Building ring inside of 10 rounds.
 A square jawed IriShman who spent some 18 months as sailor in World War II, Mulligan currently is riding the crest of winning wave that has seen him beat 38 opponents in Al fights.
 Miller holds slight edge over Mulligan by virtue of a knockout inflicted at White Plains, N. Y, a few weeks back. But even his strong est supporters agree that that was a lucky win and point to second match in which the pair slugged 1t out toe-to-toe in a sell-out fight that ended in draw.
 Because of Mulligans local popu- larity and the fact that the bout winds up the Patriots day holiday, banner crowd heavily laced with Merrimac Valley fans is expected.
 Mulligan was expected to enter the ring slight favorite by virtue of spectacular round knock cut over the rugged Bob Wade in Jersey City, N. J., week ago.

 T just couldn't help from get ting Jumps in my thoat when I saw those kids in hospitals" Ott explained. Baseball seemed pretty far away, and not very important"
 But another season has started and Ott is back at his same old stand. When he went to bat at Boston Tuesday it marked the 20th consecutive year he has been with the same club-a new National League record. And every time he draws a base on balls, bats in a run, gets a hit, hits an extra base or scores a run he sets new life time record-and the old one, of course, is his own. In all he set six on opening day. He broke four more yesterday.
 Now he's shooting for his first pennant since he took over the helm of the Giants in 1942. He'd gladly trade in all his records for that flag. He wants 1t to keep his rec ord-always coming through for the late John J. McGraw.

New York, April 19. CUP)-A timid youth of IS stepped out of a taxi cab in midtown Manhattan looking for John J. McGraw
 He was directed to the offices of the New York Giants where he learned that McGraw already had left for the Polo Grounds. So the kid, a little scared of the big city after living in Louisiana, started out to find subway. He found one, but instead of winding up at the Polo Grounds he found he was at Coney Island.
 It was the first time he had been lost It also was the last, for since that September day in 1925, Mel win Thomas Ott has been doing considerably more than all right.
 He found his way back to the Polo Grounds that day and finally presented the letter he was bearing to McGraW, then managing the Giants. The letter was from one of McGraw's friend and recom- mended the bearer as a coming major league baseball prospect.
 What position do you play, McGraw asked the Louisiana boy who wasn't going to be 16 until the following March.
 I'm a catcher" Ott replied.
 Did you ever play the outfield, McGraW asked.
 "Yes sir" Ott shot back, when I was a kid'
 He's played lot of outfield since then-so much that almost every time he goes to bat he sets new record. And to the thousands who know him, to the millions who have seen him play, to the men who 20 all out for him on the diamond every day, and the thousands oi service men he entertained during his tour of the European War the ater last winter, 1t couldn't happen to better guy.

Redwings, Leafs Resume Ice Action

Detroit, April 19-(UP)-The De- troit Red Wings, who finally solved the problem of how to score on Tor onto goalie, Frankie McCool, resume their last ditch stand for the Ma tional Hockey League Stanley Cup tonight, mindful that defeat will give the Leafs the championship.
 The Wings are even money to win tonight's game, but are to un- derdogs to stage a comeback of three straight victories necessary to cap ture the battered old cup.
 Coach Jack Adams indicated he would use the same persistent of- fensive tactics which belatedly punctured Toronto's defense lines at Toronto last Saturday. The Wings lost three straight games to the Leafs without scoring goal until they broke loose to win, 5 to g.
 If Detroit wins tonight, the teams return to Toronto for the sixth game of the series Saturday night.

Chicago, April 19. - (UP) - In complete reversal of form, pitcher Mort and catcher Walker Cooper of the St. Louis Cardinals went quietly back to work today after each had presented his argument for a 5000 raise to baseball's front office.
 Their requests for $l5,O00 salaries were taken under advisement yes- terday by Leslie O'Connor, chair man of the baseball advisory coun- ell, after he conferred with them for 90 minutes.
 Following the conference, O'Con- nor said he would consider the Cooper brothers case for couple of days and might talk by Long Distance Telephone with President Sam Breadon of the Cardinals, who steadfastly has refused to meet his two stars demands.
 When asked what they would do If their salary demands were not met, Mort said, '"We will abide by what ever MT. O'Connor decides to do. We have submitted our case to him. That's enough"
