and the Chickasawhay river,
which also was approved for
survey, would bring a boom in
oil production in South Missis-
sippi.
Mr.. Khayat declared that South
Mississippi oil fields are not be-
ing developed to their fullest ex-
tent because products have not
found an economical way to
transport oil.
He said that the low cost pro-
vided by water transportation is
the answer.
Arthur Allen of Pascagoula, re-
tired member of the u. S. En-
gineers, declared that the cost
of making Leaf river navigable
would not be prohibitive.
Verne Barnes, secretary of the
Pascagoula- Moss Point Cham
Der of Commerce pointed out
that while Mississippi ranks 10th
as an oil producing state. its
potential production can move it
to third place.
Other members of the Pasca-
goula delegation were Mayor
F. w. Cirlot of Moss Point; and
Easton King, editor of the Chron-
iele-Star and member of the Pas
cagoula port commission.
Following the addresses, mem
bers of the Lions club voted to
form a subcommittee to work on
the Leaf river navigation pro-
ject and also will call upon 9th
er civic organizations in the city

On a project to get Leaf river

Mr.. Gautier made his plea to
Lions club members and their
guests at the club luncheon held

last week.
Mr.. Gautier headed the six

came here at the invitation of
the Lions club Leaf river navi-

Mr.. Gautier urged that a COM

providing data to prove to the
surveyors that deepening of the
Leaf river would provide suffi-
cient water commerce to justify
the expense of making the river
navigable south of Hattiesburg.
He also suggested that the pro-

In u. ). Parks Meet
BY the Associated Press

INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 19.-The
National Public Parks tennis players,
chased all over Indianapolis Monday
by a cloud not much bigger than a
city block, faced 37-match~ pro-
gram today in the second session of
their annual tournament.
The forecast was for continuation
of the 95-degree temperature with
high humidity that wilted players
yesterday after a shower drove them
off the clay courts and onto blis-
tering asphalt at Butler University.
Defending champ and top-seeded
Dick Hainline, Rock Island, Ill, won
his starter from Wayne Smith, st.
Louis, Mo-, 81, 6-3, 60, but his
younger brother had to play the
stiffest match of the first round.
Ted Hainline, 21year-old North
western University student, lost his
first two sets to Richard Cohen, g.
foot-4-inch Howard University
dental student from Elizabeth, N. j.,
but Cohen gradually lost his accuracy
in the gruelling heat and Hainline
won after dropping the first three
games of the fifth set. The score
was ST, 3-6, 81, Ga, IS.
Favored women players won their
first matches in straight sets. Top
seeded Mary Arnold Prentiss of Los
Angeles got an unexpected bye when
it turned out that Jean Laura While
of Greensboro, N. c., accidentally
had been listed as Jean "and" Laura
While and given two matches.

Yarosz Gives Bee Bee
Boxing Lesson and
Makes Him LikeIt

Washington may be one-man
fight town. That could explain the
small attendance when someone
other than the local favorite is
fighting. The boy with the golden
touch this year is Smuggy Hursey.
When he isn't fighting, the CUSTOM
ers stay home.
For the past two years it was
Bee Bee Washington and before
that Aaron Perry. They played be-
fore larger crowds than anyone else
except such exceptionally popular
ut-of-towners as Henry Armstrong
and Beau Jack.
Only $500 customers found their
way to Griffith Stadium last night,
paying gross gate Of $5,981.35
and a.net of $4,389 .43 to see Tommy
Yarosz of Pittsburgh easily outpoint
Bee Bee Washington in a 10-round
light-heavyweight match. Yarosz
just about owned Bee Bee from the
start, made him fight his kind Of
fight and won by large margin.
Tommy gave an exhibition of
downright fancy boxing. With as
speedy a left jab as has been seen
here in many a day, he'd hit the
local boy five to one and either
dance back out Of reach or tie up
Double-B before the latter could
fight back. There was little might
ing. Anytime Bee Bee got close
enough to swing he'd find himself
all knotted up.
Bee Bee himself is a good jabber,
but Yarosz taught him some tricks
about that art last night. AS for Bee
Bees right, he carried it in a sling.
Halfway through the fight, Bee
Bee suddenly realized that Yarosz
wasn't hurting him, but was out
pointing him badly. Double-B tried
new tactics in the sixth and there
after, rushing the Pittsburgher,
swarming all over him and trying
for a knockout as the only method
of winning. It resulted in just more
clinches, with Bee Bee doing no
damage.
The prelims drew no cries Of wild
delight from the scattered custom
erS. Results were:
Art Bethea, D. c., 1891, outpoint-
ed Jimmy Robinson, D. c., 1571a
Give rounds; Walter Roane, D. c.
las, drew with Melvin Wade, Balti-
more, $50; Charley Toler, D. c., 142,

Pittsburgh, 179, decisioned Slim
Gravitto, D. c., lit (four rounds),
and Angelo Marini, D. c., 151h,
outpointed Buddy Thomas, D. c.,

Brewers in Command
In SandIot Series

Heurich Brewers now take over
the favorite's spot in the District
sandlot baseball title series. They
can sit back and rest comfortably
on their 80 record and wait for
the remainder of the field of four
to thin down to one survivor for
what may be payoff game Friday.
The Brewers, Industrial League
champs, took over first place in the
playoffs by spilling previously un-
defeated FBI of the Departmental
League, 81, on the Ellipse.
Today 1t will be Costello of the
Metro League playing Fire Depart
ment of the East Recreation loop.
The loser will be sidelined. Tomor-
row Merrick from North Recreation
tangles with FBI and here, too, the
loser goes home.
Two unearned runs in the third
gave the Brewers their margin yes
terday. A pair of errors put Harry
Krouthamel and Giggy Giegerich
on base and Bernie Good doubled
to send them home.
That was enough to win, as Pitch
er Krouthamel handcuffed the
Sleuths with one hit until the ninth.
Then FBI came up with a rally that
threatened to reverse matters. It
got three singles, but only Joe
Brewer was able to score.

NEW YORK, Aug. 19.-Harry
Walker, brilliant outfielder of the
Philadelphia Phillies. continued to
enjoy a commanding margin in the
National League batting derby to-
day, while Lou Boudreau of the
Cleveland Indians paced the Ameri-
can League by scant four points.
Walker collected IL hits in 81
times at bat during the past week,
which includes games Sunday, to
zoom his average from .344 to BAT,
Is points more than veteran Augie
Galan Of Cincinnati has posted.
Galan, moving at a 1872 clip, re-
placed New York's Walker Cooper
in the runnerup slot. Cooper tum-
bled from 1926 to third place with
.316.
Although his mark dropped from
$40 to 1888, Boudreau remained at
the top in the rival circuits race.
The player manager of the Indians
enjoys a four-point margin over
ageless Luke App1ing of the Chi
cago White Sox. Appling, who has
won the batting crown twice, tackled
seven points to his average to move
up to .329.
New York's Joe Di MSggio and
Boston's Ted Williams are tied for
third place at 1928, while George

Mrs. Frank, siX-time winner of

championship, has been out Of the

CLEVELAND, Aug. 19.-1nto a
cluster of four successive double
headers the Mats will plunge at dusk
in twi-night twin bill with the
Cleveland Indians. Washington will
be shouldering bothersome burden
of seven straight defeats into its
final Western trip at a time when
its pitching staff is staggering, due
to overwork.
Walter Masterson, admittedly
more effective with four days rest

against the Indians tonight. Ray

the second finger of his pitching
hand, will hurl only two days after

Early Wynn, work horse of the
Mats pitchers, has been plagued
with a sore elbow for more than a
month and currently is awaiting
x-ray reports to determine If he
has bone chip, while Sid Hudson's
status remains in doubt until his
sore shoulder is tested thoroughly
Five Twin Bills in Six Days.
Five double e-headers in six days
confront the Mats, who will be in
clined to regard Saturdays single
game at Detroit as vacation. Two
twin bills here, two more at Detroit
and another at st. Louis await the
Mats before the week is out.
Beaten in 10 of their last II
games; the Mats will be attempting
TO check their skid toward the
American League basement. Three
games behind the sixth-place Chi
cago White Sox, the Mats still have
a 9h-game cushion over the cellar
dwelling st. Louis Browns.
1t isn't inconceivable, however,
that the Mats could finish in the
dungeon for the second time in four
years. They're not hitting and
they're not hustling. They are per-
forming their chores with all the
enthusiasm of an Army spud-
peeling detail
A flicker of sunshine filtered
through the Mats gloom yesterday

the Philadelphia Phillies, 80, in an
exhibition game which was wit
messed by a scant 5000 fans who

gave evidence that recent shots of

ailing shoulder, for his fast ball was
sizzling again as he pitched three

Sid is awaiting developments,
though, for his arm previously bs
