MEMS SUMNER LEAGUE

ISOLATION last week
that the matches in the summer
league series for men will start
on Monday, June 3. The sched-
ule of league meetings has not
been released as yet but plans
have been made to release it in
the next few days. To date APP
proximately seventeen teams
have registered for summer play
and plans are being set to line
up twenty teams for the series.
These twenty teams will be di-
vided into two leagues of ten
teams each much the same as in
the past spring pairings. Mon
day, May 81, has been set as the
deadline for entering teams in
the summer competition and the
names should be turned in to T.
N. Tucker at the Recreation
Building. Monday, May q, will
also mark the date of a meeting
of the Pascagoula Bowling AS
ISOLATION at which meeting all
rules for the summer series will
be presented to the members of
the association. A committee was
appointed to set up the rules
for the summer series and their
set of rules will be final as they
present them. The committee
was made up of a cross section
from both leagues and the final
authority for the regulations was
vested IN them. OF course the
rules will have to conform to
the standards of the American
Bowling Association but local
rules will govern the regula-
tions of our matchings. L.onnie
Watts is chairman of this guild
ing committee.
At the Bowling Association
meeting Monday night the ban
quet committee is also expected
to report on the plans for the
Summer Banquet that will be
held in the near future. At this
banquet the trophies for the Win
rers of the spring competition
will be presented. 1t is planned
that all league members, their
wives, and guests will attend
this function which will be held
in one of the public gathering
places in the city.

now operating in full swing with

local alleys. The crowds are still
following the shorts clad bellies
of the local hardwood and the

NEW YORK, Sept. 16.-For the
first Monday since July 20 the stock
market today negotiated modest
average advance although buying
was on the cautious side and many
leaders failed to do anything in
particular.
The recovery of Friday carried
over at an active opening but deal
ings soon slowed appreciably. A few
thin" issues added several points
on a handful of sales. Gains gen.
orally, ranging from fractions to g
point or so, were reduced in most
cases at the close.
There also was a smattering OF
minus signs. Transfers were in the
vicinity Of 100000 shares, smallest
turnover of the month to date.

when Mr.. Talbot withdrew.
The vacancy left by Mr.. Talbot S
refusal to run will be filled by the
district convention which has been
called to reconvene at 8 pm. Fri

drew to make possible the unani-
nous nomination of Mr.. Talbot
have announced that they are again
active candidates.

Investigators 10 Study
Grant by Roosevelt
For Nicaragua Road

President Roosevelt's grant Of
$4,000 900 to Nicaragua to build the
Rama road link to the Inter-
American highway probably will be
investigated when the Senate
War Investigating Committee holds
hearings late this month on the
Inter-American highway, commit
tee aides said today.
Assistant Committee Counsel
Francis Flanagan said the commit
tee planned to look into all the spur
lines and offshoots from the Inter-
American highway.
The Rama road, which is still
uncompleted, is being built under
the supervision of the Public Roads
Administration. About 100 miles Of
the road have been completed and
it has been estimated by PRA that
another 100000 will be needed to
complete it. The road stretches
eastward from the Inter American
highway to Rama, a river port near
the Atlantic coast of Nicaragua and
is to be more than $50 miles long.
According to State Department
officials, the road was discussed by
Nicaraguan President Anastasio
Somoza with President Roosevelt
when the Nicaraguan visited here
in 1888.
Subsequently. $4,000 900 was taken
out of the late Presidents emer-
gency fund to pay for the construc-
ton
/ The uncompleted road was
touched on during Los Angeles hear
ings of the Senate War Investi.

Both State and Public Roads Ad-
ministration officials were reluctant
to discuss it pending committee

Party Organ GIoating
On Candidates Defeat
Anqers Southerners
BY the Associated Press


New rumblings of discomfort arose
today among Southern Democrats
long at odds with the party's ma
tional committee officials
The Southerners are irked right
now about an article in the Demo-
crat, official party organ, which
comments approvingly on the defeat
for denomination of Representa-
tives Slaughter, Democrat, of Mis-
souri,, and Boren, Democrat, of Okla
homa.
The article, by Democratic Ma
tional Publicity Director, Sam
O'Neal, termed rejection of the two
legislators typical of a trend against
those who have opposed and OBJ
structed the progressive Roosevelt
Truman program"
'Most Offensive" Says Cox.
The two were referred to as mem-
bers of group of about 20 "dissi-
dent Democrats" who, Mr.. O'Neal
said, united with Republicans lin
defeating or amending to death"
some legislation proposed by Presi-
dent Truman.
One of Mr.. O'Neal's strongest
critics was Representative Cox.
Democrat, of Georgia, leader OF
the Southern group. He handed a
reporter a statement terming the
article 'one of the most offensive
things I've SEEN"
Mr.. Cox also declared the article
represented "a breach of the under
standing" he said was reached this
spring Ito the effect that the Ma
tional Democratic Committee would
not intervene in primary contests
between Democrats"
; The Georgian added in reference
! to Mr.. OrNeal that his gloating
over the retirement of Democrats
makes me wonder whose stooge he
is and certainly emphasizes
the need of knowing whether the
committee represents the party as
a whole or If it is a tool of a
strongly organized and well-financed
minority"
Gossett Predicts Showdown.
Representative GosSett. Democrat.
of Texas, said the article will be
, lone more black mark against the
committee" which the Southerners
will use in trying to change its
! makeup and policies later.
/ Mr.. Gossett said he doubts, how
ever, that any attempt will be made
before the November elections to ef-
feet the changes desired by the
Southerners.
A showdown is certain to come, he
declared, either late this year, or
, early next year.
Case Bill Stirred Row.
/ Previously, the Southerners have
, battled with National Committee
Chairman Hannegan over a speech
! in which he criticized some of them
! as not having followed the party s
legislative program closely. They
i also were aroused over an article
in the Democratic Digest some time
s ago which said every vote for the
> Case labor disputes bill was "a vote
against the American people"
Numerous Southerners had Joined
the Republicans in passing this
, measure, which later was vetoed by
Mr. Truman.
Referring to this cooperation be-
{ tween Democrats and Republicans,
Mr. O'Neal said the 20 "dissidents'
who won't be back were "an indis-
, pensable nucleus" of the group He
t added that now that this nucleus
is gone, the coalition may go, too.
r =" At least its effectiveness will
!, be considerably reduced"
