Baseba||Raees Tighten
As Major League
Leaders FIunk
By Jock Hand
Assoeioied Press Stoff Writer

Brooklyn's Dodgers are getting
too close for the comfort of the
st. Louis Cardinals in the National
League and st in the American
League the staggering New York
Yankeeslare wondering When. II
ever. athsg will be dislodged from
the plush surroundings of first
place.
A week ago the Yankees opened
Western trip with a 212-game
bulge over Boston and five-game
lead over third-place Cleveland.
On their journey thus far the
crippled New Workers have split
eight games, but they've increased
their lead to three games over the
Red Sox and still possess five
game gap over the Indians.
Contenders Not Hot.
Neither the Red Sox nor Indians
have behaved as If they are slz-
zling. Boston has won only four
of nine games in the West and
against the Eastern invaders
Cleveland has an even break IN
eight games. Both have muffed
opportunities to overhaul the
Yankees.
Boston did whack full game
off New Yorks lead, slicing their
deficit to three games yesterday,
however, by beating Detroit, 80.
The Yankees dropped 6-2 deci-
sion to the aroused st. Louis
Browns last night.
Ellis Kinder snapped Detroit s
eight-game winning streak with a
brilliant five-hit shutout to pick
up his 18th victory. Freddie
Hutchinson's personal eight-game
winning streak also was shattered
by a Red Sox attack that in
cluded Vern Stephens 35th homer
and No. 8 for Dom Di Maggie.
Yankee Starter Ed Lopat failed
to survive four innings. Rookie
Roy Sievers was the Browns bat
ting star, knocking across three
runs to ease AL Papai's pitching
job. Lopat's third-inning homer
was the only New York score off
Papai until the seventh.
Cleveland's scheduled night
game with Philadelphia was
washed out. .....
Thanks to Gil Hodges, the
Brooklyn Dodgers are only game
and a half behind the st. Louis
Cardinals in the rugged National
League race.
Hodges, probably the best first
baseman in the league although
he is playing his first full season
at the job, is giving Jackie Rob-
inson a run for his money as the
most valuable Dodger. He is hit
ting only .294, but his sense of
timing is terrific.
Rex Barney, struggling to re-
deem himself after Hopping badly
all season, trailed Murry Dickson

day when Big Gil did his stuff
There was a runner on first and

their old tormentors to blast St

FEDERAL AID TO SCHOOLS
FINDS EASY SAILING
THROUGH CONGRESS

The progress of the bill before
Congress to provide 100000,
in federal aid for education is be
ing eyed by number Of teachers
in this county with deep interest.
The lowest amount of federal
aid that could come to Dickinson
County under the terms of the
bill is $4,000. The measure pass
ed the Senate last week by top
heavy majority. 1t is believed that
it will receive favorable action
in the House of Representatives.
The bill, as sponsored by the
American Federation of Teachers,
provided that all the grants in
aid should go to the states for
teachers salaries. That provision
was so vigorously opposed by the
American Education Association
that it was temporarily stricken
from the act.

Poll Tax Payments
Pick Up Before
Deadline Arrives

According to estimates from
the treasurer's office, about $500
persons paid poll taxes before
the deadine Saturday afternoon.
A horseback appraisal is that
Democratic payees were in the
lead to the ratio of three to two.
Payments are nearly always light
in years when state officers are
elected. Probably twice the num-
Der could have qualified had they
cared to do So
Estiamting that 2700 Democrats
are eligible to vote in the August
2 primary, one might forecast a
primary vote of 1900. The people
in Virginia do not seem to have
a great deal of interest in voting,
More than 100000 poll tax pay
ments were made in 1913, but
less than 100000 votes were cast
in the presidential election.

GROWING CONTEST

Nineteen Dickinson County far
mers have entered the 100 bushel

takes in two states. The tall corn

Trial Justice Passes Nice
Point Of Law On
To Judge Smith

Trial Justice E. J. Sutherland
passed a nice question on to Cir
cult Judge Smith from his court
Tuesday. One Hobart Johnson
was brought into court on a
charge of drunken driving. There
seemed ample evidence of his
guilt. However, Johnson's attor-
ney, Glenn Phillips, proved that
his client had been placed in jail
and kept overnight without an
opportunity of asking for bond.
The supreme court of Virginia
ruled several months ago that an
accused person who had been de-
tanned four hours in Jail without
an opportunity of asking for bond
had been deprived of his consti-
tutional rights and could not,
therefore, be convicted.
Reference was made to the
Fourteenth Amendment, which
forbids convictions without "due
process of law" Attorney Phillips
states that he will waive jury
trial for his client in circuit court
and ask Judge Smith to rule on
his point of law.

VACCINATION OF DOGS
WIPES OUT RABIES
IN COUNTY
IN COUNT

The ordinance passed by the
Board of Supervisors of Dicken-
son County last year requiring
the vaccination Of all dogs that
run at large. is still in effect.
Fred Noel Fletcher, county
farm agent, has called a meeting
of all the agricultural teachers in
the county to meet him at Clint
wood next Saturday morning to
arrange to start vaccinating dogs
in all parts Of the county. Agri-
cultural students will be selected
for the work and will give notice
Of times and places in each
neighborhood where dog owners
can bring their dogs to be treated.
During the two years that this
ordinance has been in effect ra-
bies has almost been wiped out
in the county and it is regarded
as a great forward step to insure
the public from the danger of be
ing bitten by mad dogs. The only
serious case of rabies reported
last year was rabid fox biting
a number of people in the east
side of the county. Mr.. Fletcher
says that this is one menace that
cannot be handled, since it is i'm
possible to vaccinate the foxes.
After a reasonable length of
time, it will be a violation of the
law to own or possess any dogs
that run at large that have not
been vaccinated.
