They'll be trying to make 1t three
in row tonight, when they meet
the Lions again at Uline Arena,
starting as usual at $50 o'clock.
Much Of the difference between
early olympic showings and their
present pace is caused by expert
net tending from Red Henry, who
stepped down to the Pics from the
Hershey Bears of the American
League. Winger Hap Pierson also
has come from Hershey to strength
en- the Bostonians. Also added to
the roster since the Pics last were
here are Ty Andersen. defensemar,
and Tommy Brennan. winger, from
last years championship team.
The Lions have only tie and
two defeats to show for their last
three games, but they can step up
into a f1rst-place tie with New York
and Baltimore If they win tonight
and also II the valleyfield Braves
help by beating Baltimore. The
Braves are favored.

It might be q jinx or something,
but the record shows that the Bos-
ton Olynpics, who have been able
to scare up only five Eastern Hockey
League victories this season, have
scored two of them against the
Washington Lions.
y The Pics, for three years the
loop champions, started poorly this
season at the bottom and have
been there since. They recently
have shown signs of their old cham
pionship form with successive VIC
tories over the New York Rovers
and the Lions this past week end.

LOAN 10 RUSSIA NOT LIKELY FOR
 SOMETIME YET

WASHINGTON, July 15.-Russia probably viii have to wait until next year at least for a loan even a fraction Of the size of the $3,- 750,000,000 credit Congress okayed Saturday for Britain.
 The Kremlin reportedly is inter- ested in borrowing about S1,000,000,- 900 from this country.
 Little has been heard of a Rus sian loan since the United States some months ago notified Moscow of willingness to discuss it-pro- vided Russia would agree to talk at the Samt time about her trade relations with the Balkans and other areas within the Soviet sphere of influence.
 Any such loan would have to come through the export import bank unlike the one to Britain which late Saturday won a 219 to 155 House vote of approval, fol- lowing Serate clearance previously.
 Only President Truman's sigma ture is needed before London can start drawing on the money, in re- turn for which the British have promised to work for freer world trade. The joan is to be repaid by the year 200l. Some officials be- lieve the first money will be ad- vanced this week.

WASHINGTON = The croSs-eX- animation of Nazi diplomats by the U. s. Army in Germany throws sig nificant light on the Justice De- partment's efforts to convict var ious American citizens charged with spreading enemy propaganda against theil country and indicted for sedition.
 This trial has been held in sus- pense for two years, but some of the confidential evidence now gath cred in Germany may be conclu- sive.
 Below follow excerpts from this hitherto unpublished testimony taken by Capt. Sam Harris from the former first secretary of the German Embassy in Washington, pr. Herbert von Strempel.
 Previously, the Washington Mer- ry-Go- o-Round had told how George Sylvester Viereck, nephew of the Kaiser, had used the late Senator Ernest Lundeen of Minnesota, ex- Congressman Hamilton Fish, ex- Congressman Stephen Day of H. linois to disseminate Nazi propa- ganda. These revelations brought vigorous denisls.
 However, here is the official tes- tiniony:
 Captain Harris: Did Viereck ever mention the rame of Senator Lun- deen to you?
 Won StremLel: Yes. He told me that he was m old friend of his and that when the president of the German Red Cross came to the United Statec Viereck claimed to have arranged that Senator Lun- deen pronounce the after dinner welcome speech.
