In a thrilling seven-inning soft
ball game Wednesday night, July

team managed by Joe Allen, ed

Things looked bad for Storz in
the LIST inning when Triggs erred
an infield fly ball to allow two
runs for Falstaff but ne made up
for it by knocking a three-bagger
and q home run.

Peak and Gibson and the latter
was doing a jam-up job of COW

I'm Cases Of Sale 10 Minor

The Alcoholic Beverage Control
Board yesterday deferred decision In
the cases of two District taverns ac-
cused of selling beer to 16-year-old
girl after the restaurants complained
lof ''entrapment" practices by ABC
Board inspectors.
The charge was made by Attorney
r. Joseph Donahue, representing the
Carroll Tavern, $40 Ninth street
NV, and the Casablanca Cafe, Al
Eleventh street NV. Both were
cited for selling beer to the minor
girl on September 3, when she visited
the places accompanied by her

Testimony disclosed the girls
mother complained to the board
after the girl came home under the
influence" September l and said she
had obtained beer at the two tay-

inspectors followed.
Alan w. Payne, board chairman,
said he resented the implication that
it was the usual practice for inspec-
tors to use minors to catch liquor
code violations, pointing out that 1t
was the boards duty to follow up
parents complaints.

New WeHes Book Hits
|Byrnes, Urges Soviet,
u. s. Change Policies

Sumner Welles, former Undersec-
Iretary Of State, declared today in a
book sharply attacking Secretary OF
State Byrnes, that both Russia and
| the United States must change their
policies II the danger Of an atomic
war Is to be ayerted.
At one point Mr.. Welles accused
Mr.. Byrnes of having tried to "ap-
pease" Russia at a meeting in Mos
COW last December by yielding to
Soviet demands for domination oi
the Balkan states.
In so doing, Mr.. Welles argued
Secretary Byrnes was guilty of q
"cowardly retreat" from the policy
lof freely elected" Balkan govern
ments which President Roosevelt
had persuaded Prime Minister Stain
to accept at the Yalta Conference
in late l943.
Book Out Today.
Mr.. Welles' book, Where Are We
Heading?" will be published today
by Harper 81 Bros. The author
characterized both Mr.. Byrnes and
President Truman as having come
into control Of American destinies
without "the slightest knowledge OF
international relations"
Mr.. Welles asserted that Mr.
|Byrnes particularly has continually
vacillated" in his policies toward
Russia, while the Kremlin has been
alert to take advantage Of any weak
mess in United States diplomacy.
Both countries" Mr.. Wells said
"are rapidly becoming involved in a
vicious circle which-unless 1t Is
promptly and cleanly cut-may well
lpresage an atomic war"
Death Of Roosevelt Blamed.
Mr.. Wells attributed much Of the
postwar upset of foreign relations te
the death of President Roosevelt.
President Roosevelt had made II
clear that the United States would
at all times be prepared to'mediate
between Great Britain and the
Soviet Union but that the
United States was not prepared te
back the British Commonwealth
right or wrong" he wrote.
Mr.. Wells did not mention Mr.
Roosevelt's longtime Secretary OF
State Cordell Hull. The former
Undersecretary broke with Mr.. Hull
prior to Mr.. Welles' leaving the
State Department in 1943.
Solidarity Undermined"
Mr.. Welles considers that Amer
ican foreign policy has scored by
initiating the United Nations, lead
ing in creation of international
financial and economic agencies,
and reaching, under President Tru-
mans guidance, a bipartisan state
within the country.
On the other hand, he contends
that in the last three years the
solidarity of the American repub-
lie" has been "disastrously under
mined; the United States has
failed to promote unity in China
and faces grave dangers there; the
United States has failed either to
regenerate the Japanese people or
to handle japanese policies in a
way to promote international CO.
operation.
