Satisfies City Board

Experimental street lightning
with fluorescent tubes on Wood-
row Wilson between Leslie and
Tyler since last March has proved
so successful that Saturday the
Public Lighting Commission was
studying installing them through
out the city.
Louis j. Schrenk. general su-
perlntendent, estimated the oper-
ating cost TO be Is to 25 per cent
less than the incandescent street
lamps.
Schrenk pointed out the eff
cheney of the new lightning is
effected by extreme temperatures,
sometimes failing to turn on in
low temperatures and throwing
ineffective light in Temperatures
30 degrees or more.

 LEAGUE LEAD
Tailoring Gianis Fade Be- fore Dodgers in Ninth-
 Slide to Third Spot
tBx The Associated Press)

Pittsburgh hitting and jittery New York pitching have produced the inevitable result--the Giants have slid from first to third in the National League and the Pirates are roasting on top.
 While Bill Voiselle dropped an- other ninth frame decision as Brooklyn set the Giants back, 5-4, Pittsburgh took two from Chicago yesterday to take the league lead. Max Butcher outelbowed the Cubs in the first game, 5-2, but Rip Sewell had to have help from Xavier Rescigno before the Pirates swept the second, 6-5.
 The Phillies, who snapped a l6- game losing streak Wednesday, shellacked Boston, 13-8. Vince Di- Maggie with two homers and six hits. and Jimmy Wasdell with five runs driven in, were the big guns. Dizzy Trout made the mistake Of throwing two home run balls to vern Stephens, one with a man on. and it cost Detroit 2-2 loss to St. Louis.
 The New York Yankees and Washington in the American, and St. Louis and Cincinnati of the Ma tional had open dates.

MANAGER orr FINDING FINE
 UNFORTUNATE
By JACK HAND Associated Press Sports Writer)

Bill Voiselle's ninth inning pho- bia, developed since Giant Manager Mel Ott plastered $500 fine for not wasting a 20 pitch in St. Louis. continues to haunt the young man from Ninety Six, s. c.
 It troubled him again yesterday when the talented righthander fail- ed to hold a one-run lead as Brooklyn clubbed across two scores in the last frame to hand him his f f.fth successive defeat, 5-4.
 Since Voiselle's fine the Giants have copped only two games and lost 10. From a cushion of IT games over the 500 mark on May 27, the club has slipped to Q 2S-2l record in less than three weeks.

NEW YORK, June 10 (ANP)-
The indignities heaped upon sol
diers of the 92nd division, accord
ing to an investigation recently
launched in Italy by Roi Ottley,
stand as an ugly Indictment against
American democracy and human de-
cency.
Ottley, who has served as war
correspondent, found that both the
whites and Negroes are victims Of
ugly social patterns of American
life. What was wrong with the di-
vision, he discovered, could never
be corrected in Italy. The blame for
the divisions battle failures must
fall on it's white commanders.
''If someone should insist on pin
ming the rap" he said, "the sole
blame for the 92nd's showing ulti-
mately would fall in the lap of the
white command. Because, actually,
the division is not all-Negro outfit.
The bulk of the officers are white.
Every officer in the high command
is white. Negroes therefore had no
part in planning operations. If the
plans failed, the fault lies with
those who originated them"
Ottley said the 92nd division
probably would not have been sim
gled out for criticism if the war de-
partment had not sent Truman K.
Gibson, civilian aide to the secre-
tary of war, to Italy. What the mo-
tive was seems vague at this dis
tance," he observed, because no
noticeable change has been made in
