Pointe and Royal Oak. 1t was
the locals first defeat at home
this season.
The Bathers. coached to near
perfection by Roy N. Quinn and
Richard Edwards put up gal
liant fight, as evidenced by the
quarters scores 11-9 for Hazel
Park: 2t-20 for Hazel Park, and
34-3l for Hazel Park
Mount Clemens had one
point lead in the last IA seconds
Of the game. Hazel Park took
It}1e ball from out of bounds and
Hill received pass in mid
court and tried for long shot
For what seemed minutes the
ball circled the net and finally
went through for the points
which meant so much to both
teams. The game was over be-
fore the Bathers could take the
ball down the court.

Wings Groom,
for P|ayoffs
Conodiens Slotted
to Beot Detroit
BY the Associated Press

A month from today and the
National Hockey League will
turn to the business of the
Stanley Cup play offs, and if we
can believe the word of experts,
Toronto's Maple Leafs will start
one series against the Canadiens
at Montreal, while Boston's
Bruins will face off against the
Red Wings at Detroit.
These predictions are based
On the expectation that Mon
treal, Detroit, Toronto, and
Boston will finish in that order,
and there seems little reason to
doubt that it will be so.
The only club whose position
seems at all shaky is the fourth
place Boston Bruins who have
four-point lead over the New
York Rangers with 10 games
each, almost anything can hap
pen, although there is no indica-
ton of any weakening IN the
Bruins effort.
The Chicago Black Hawks
also stand a chance of squeezing
into the play-offs, although they
are four points behind the
Rangers. However, with IL
games on hand, and the fine
showing Of Sunday night when
they held the pace-setting Can
adiens to a scoreless draw, the
Hawks prospects are not too dim.
Events of the current week
should clarity whatever doubt
remains. Wednesday, the Bruins
take on the Hawks and Boston
victory would just about elimin-
ate the Hawks as play-off mater
ial. Thursday, the Red Wings
play the Rangers, and a Detroit
triumph probably would settle
the Rangers prospects. There
are no other mid-week games.

Hazel Park is continuing its
unbeaten streak as one OF the
States top High school quin-
tets but only by the grace of the
IL seconds which closed their
game here Friday with the
Bathers, when a long shot from
mid-court bounced around the
hoop and finally tumbled
through the net to give the Haz-
elites a 40 to 80 victory.
The game was one of the fast
est and most thrilling played
here in many a year, the Bath
er squad being popped up by
wins over unbeaten Crosse

Majors: Seek
Showdown
With Byrnes

WASHINGTON, Feb. 20 Up
The big leagues are seeking a
showdown with War Mobilizer
Byrnes on basebalps status.
Ford Frick, president of the
National League now in Wash
ington will ask Byrnes to "either
leave us enough men to play
baseball Or tell US to stop" a
highly authoritative baseball
source said in New York.
President Will Harridge of the
American League and Frick
were named by the big league
owners TO confer with govern
ment officials on baseball's war
time problems.
Harridge travelled here today.
Frick arrived last night.
In New York, the informant,
who asked that his name not be
used said:
Prick has gone to Washington
armed with a list OF the majors
personnel, consisting mostly of
4-Fs, discharges, average and
underage players. AS we have
said many times before, we don't
want to use a single man who
is needed by the armed forces or
by essential industry.
However, we'd like to keep
the men who are not needed. All
we ask is no discrimination.
believe Tricks principal point
will be either leave us enough
men to play baseball or tell us
to stop You can't expect us 10
play without players"
Baseball's war problems ap-
parently pivot around the avail
ability Of sufficient players Il
Congress enacts work or-jail leg
islation, and like other sports,
baseball also faces transporta-
ton problems.

EewApPeoIs Received On Benefits
 Only 377 Exeep- tions Taken in
 RA aA=
5Q,325 Coses

For the month of August unem- plcyment appeals fell to only eightr tenths of one per cent of all claims filed, John J. Egan, Labor Commis- sioner, said today. Of the 59,325 ini- tial claims filed fo rthe month, there were S77 appeals, of which 36 were by employers and 341 by employees. This is one appeal out of every 160 claims filed, indicating that the un- employed workers, generally speak ing, are filling claims only when they know they are entitled to them.
 Reasons given among, the appeal cases were: mot available for work"
 voluntary quitting of job"-"wil- ful misconduct" pregnancy: and also few cases which held that the appellants were not involved in a labor dispute when a strike took place. A number of appeals were taken protesting the penalty clause for quitting their jobs.
 Commissioner Egan said he thought many of those drawing ben- eft checks now would soon be back working, and while recent reports indicate new claims coming in each week are slightly larger than those of discontinuing claims, this condi- tion will gradually improve unless unforeseen events affect the labor market adversely.

Prison Terms For SwindIinQ Two More Cities
 Moy Ar.oign .
 AppIeboum

Ronald Applebawn, N, of West Haven, who transacted a series of financial deals which put police of four cities and the F.BI. on his trail, was sentenced to serve one to five years in states prison when he was brought to Waterbury yes- terday afternoon for the second of four scheduled court appearances.
 The accused, former resident of Waterbury, and the father of two children, pleaded nolo contendere to three counts of larceny and ob- taining money under false pretenses when arraigned here before Judge Charles Mclaughlin.
 The court was told the accused had been sentenced to serve one to three years in the New Haven Supe- rior Court earlier in the day on similar counts. Still remaining to be answered are criminal charges in Middletown and in Wilmington, Del.
 No Cigarettes!
 States Attorney William B. Fitz- gerald disclosed that the victims VI APplGUdutu GTdIlShCtlOIS were James Esposito of New Haven, who surrendered 5000 to the accused last April in the expectation of re- ceiving cigarette supplies; William Sabia of Stamford, who gave Ap- plebaum $2,3o0 last November for an oil truck which did not exist; and Paul Banning of East Hampton who paid $l,l40 in June for cigar cttes he did not receive.
 Applebaum used the same tech- nique on all of the victims, 1t was disclosed by the prosecutors state- ment to the court.
 Applebaum drove with each of his clients" to local warehouses and left them waiting outside while he went in to complete the deal" Coming out. he told the customers" everything was all set and he mere- ly had to take the money inside. Then he went in and disappeared, with money, according to the states attorneys information.

Most Rev. Henry J. O'Brien, Bishop of the Hartford Roman Catholic diocese, has written a let ter which will be read in the churches of the city Sunday en- dorsing and asking the coopera- ton of the people of his diocese in the Community Chest and War Fund. His letter follows;
 My dear Father:
 Sunday has been set aside as Community Chest and War Fund Sunday. We are asked to make a special appeal to our people to assist these agencies in carrying on their charitable endeavors.
 I am sure there Is no need for us to emphasize the enormous task these agencies face during the coming year. The Community Chest is entrusted with the sup port of our local social agencies. This year possibly more than any other if1 recent years, these agen- cies will be taxed with calls for assistance. The temporary diSrup- tion caused by the problem of re- conversion will present many problems and situations these agencies will have to meet. The common good and welfare of the community demands we assist them in their efforts. It Is an ap- peal to our sense of charity we cannot ignore.
 The War Fund too justly ap- peals to us once again this year. Though the war is ended, this agency has a tremendous task be- fore 1t. Our armed forces in camps
The Waterbury Democrat., 1945-09-28

would be concurrent with that given in New Haven. He stated Apple baum would be eligible for transfer to the State Farm before the first term was completed if the local sentence were made concurrent. Four months time for good behavior are aloyb,d at the farm and only two at the prison, he pointed out.
 Illegitimate Deals
 The lawyer commented that the persons involved in the deals knew they themselves were participating in something that smacked of H. legitimacy" since they were trying to get things that were hard to get. These people didn't have honest intentions" he claimed.
 Applebaum's previous record of assault, larceny, obtaining money under false pretenses, and mak- ing fraudulent checks, was cited by the prosecutor.
 Judge Mclaughlin without fur ther comment rules the sentences would be consecutive, that the Wa terbury sentence would start after the other one was completed.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1945-09-28

at home and in the armies of oc- cupation still have 8 claim upon us. We owe 1t to them to tighten their burden as much as possible. This is the task of U. s. O., one of the chief beneflciaries of the War Fund. And the unhappy plight of millions in the liberated countries who face hunger and starvation, who are threatened with pestilence and disease, who are in dire need of clothing, food medicine, who look to us for aid must appeal to our sense of char ity and brotherly love. We must try to help them. This is the task of the War Fund in the year be- fore us.
 Kindly urge your people to co- operate as generously as possible in the present campaign of the Community Chest and the War Fund. It is a work of charity that should appeal to their minds and hearts. It will bring manifold blessings from God.
 Sinsecely yours in Christ,
 HENRY J. O'BRrEN,
 Bishop of Hartford.

Jenkins, Ky. (UP)-One of na- ture's freaks each year brings a large number of curious sightseers to%an isolated mountain near Jen- kins. An opening between two giant boulders near the top of Pine Morn- tain has become famous to tourists, because through 1t passes a swift current of air. In the summer, the air is intensely cool, visitors report, while in the winter the opposite is true. The air is hot. Scientists, in so far as known, have not attempted an explanation of the change from hot to cold as the seasons go by.
