William Thomas, 1873 NV 18th
St. has had quite an experience. The
owner of the house of which l.. L.
Brooks is agent wanted it moved TO
51st street and both ave. and so it
was lacked up all ready to go, but
Thomas had not moved claiming he
had no notice to do so, altho lights
and water were disconnected. When
Thomas reported the matter, the
house was put back on the ground
and water and lights restored; every
thing settled. Thomas came out
well, because the Housing Expediter
found that he had been paying
$3.50 a week for the 4-room house
instead of $500 the legal maximum.
The case was taken before Federal
Judge Seyborne Lynne, the result
was $500 over charged in rent
since July, 1947 was returned to
Thomas.

sudden about-face, the New York
Yankees and Chicago White Sox
scheduled conferences with WASH
ington officials in an effort to
swing deals before the major
league baseball meetings close
here today.
Likelihood of the Mats complet-
ing a transaction with both clubs
before Washington bosses board a
train for the Capital this after
noon was rated "red hot" by Man
ager Bucky Harris.
Casey Stengel, manager Of the
Yankees, called Harris late last
night and asked for a conference
today after negotiations between
the clubs apparently had collapsed.
Frank Lane, general manager Of
the White Sox who previously had

Harris and President Clark Grit

Both the Yankees and White
Sox were believed to have been
prodded into action by the first
stable deal Of the meeting last
night when the Philadelphia Ath-
letics obtained Third Baseman
Bob Dillinger and Outflelder Paul
Lehner from the st. Louis Browns
for 100000 and four players.

Lincoln, Nebr., last season, was re-
garded by Browns officials as the

sends frankie Cuisine and Billy
Demars, inf1elders, and Outflelder
Ray Coleman to st. Louis.
Dillinger, who batted 1924 last
season, will supplant Hank Ma
jeski as the Athletics third base
man. Majeski, a PIT hitter, has
slowed perceptibly and probably
will be tossed on the market by
Philadelphia.
In another transaction, the Bos-
ton Braves sent Pitcher Bill
Voiselle to the Chicago Cubs for
Infielder Gene Mauch and cash.
The Braves also dispatched Out
fielder Marv Rickert to the Pitts
burgh Pirates for cash and Z
