Advance To Ottawa County
League Tourney Semi-Fin-
ais On Sunday Win

With an assist from an Oak
Harbor player and umpire Brown
lie Dorobek, of Fremont, Port Clin-
tons Downtown Coaches defeated
the Oak Harbor Merchants on a
forfeit in the opening rounds of
the Ottawa County League tourna-
ment Sunday afternoon to advance
to the semi-fnals.
Port Clinton hurler, Ray Cole
man and Oak Harbor hurler Ben
Blakely tangled in pitchers
battle which proved thriller. The
score was tied at four-all with
two outs in the Oak Harbor half
of the 18th when Umpire Doro-
bek forfeited the game to Port
Clinton during an argument with
Blakely.
Coleman had worked the count
to two balls and one strike on
Blakely when the rhubarb began.
Claiming Blakely used strong Ian
guage in arguing decision, Doro-
bek ordered the Oak Harbor hurl-
er to leave the bali park within
two minutes.
Players from both teams join
ed in the argument after Blakely
refused to leave the park. When
he did not agree to comply with
the umpire's order, Dorobek be-
came disgusted and forfeited the
game to Port Clinton.
Oak Harbor got off to a quick
start by scoring two runs off Cole
man in the first stanza. They
added another in the second and
their fourth run in the eighth.
Port Clinton tailed first in the
second inning, again in the fifth
and sixth, and tied the score in
the eighth stanza.
George Chiarelii's triple for the
losers and Bill Wahers' double for
the winners were the only extra
base hits.
In other opening round games,
Marblehead defeated Gibsonburg

Rakoski hurled a two hitter, and

Vatican Paper Blasts
Mindszenty Torture
BY the Associoted Press

VATICAN CITY, Feb. 5.-The
Vatican newspaper L'Osservatore
Romano said the church gives no
credence to the mechanical ges-
lures" of Josef Cardinal Mindszenty
in his treason trial at Budapest.
L'Osservatore, in front-page
editorial, pictured the Hungarian
primate as oppressed, depressed
and exhausted"
1t condemned what it called the
moral and physical torture cham
ber" of the Hungarian Communist
government which, it. indicated be-
lief, had forced from the Cardinal
alleged confessions of guilt.
THE sinister force of the Budapest
trial has fallen into a pit" the news
paper declared. 1t ridiculed the
alleged confessions obtained from
Cardinal Mindszenty and all other
defendants.
L'OSservatore said news dis
patches of the trial had failed to
give due prominence to the cardi-
nails declarat ton that he was acting
"in the prostration of fatigue The
newspaper also referred to what 1t
termed the strict control over news

that Zakar could be charged only
with neglect Of duty in not report
ing the cardinals activities to the
police.
Cardinal Mindszenty nodded in
agreement when the lawyer said
that the court had to consider that
Zakar had to take an oath first as
a priest and second as secretary
to the cardinal.
Consider the fact that Zakar's
confession unveiled the whole
crime the lawyer said.
Barrister Janos Karos opened the
defense Of Duke Paul Esterhazy by
praising the prosecutor as "a new
star in Hungary's juridical life"
He said Duke Esterhazy had COM
mitted economic crimes by making
unreported dollar purchases, but de-
MED that the duke had taken part
in any political alliance with sub
versive aims.
Reads Page From Diary.
He produced pages he said were
from a personal diary of Duke Ester
hazy to support an assertion that
the duke did not mourn the loss of
his estates and that he wanted to
make an effort to join with the
changed political situation in Hun
gary. The duke testified yesterday
that under the governments land
program much of his land had been
taken from him and distributed to
peasants.
Another defendant, Prof. Justin
Baranyay of Budapest University,
was pictured as victim of Gestapo
and Nazi persecution during the war
He was described as seeking a resto-
ration of a royalist regime only
after a plebiscite, which is, after all,
the most democratic form
There was no mass movement for
the restoration of monarch to the
throne, said his attorney, Mihal
Mora. Therefore, Mora continued,
there was no movement that Prof.
Baranyay could have led for the
overthrow of the government.
Prof. Baranyay's memorandum to
the cardinal about a possible cabinet
in royalist government was only a
discussion of a possibility and was
no crime, the lawyer contended.

Judge Olthys has handled other
trials important to the Communist

sent to the gallows Victor Csornoky
young diplomat son-in-laW of Presi-
dent Zoltan Tidy, on a treason
charge. Tidy had to resign because
of it.

private conversations.
1t was becoming increasingly ap-
parent that Senator Taft's political
future, as well as the Taft-Hartley
law, are issues in the battle to
rewrite the labor law.
Predicts Taft Defeat.
An American Federation of Labor
official bluntly told Senator Taft at
last nights session that "the boys in
Ohio" will take care" of him when
he runs for another six-year Senate
term in 1850.
II have no comment on those
references" Senator Taft said with
smile, after the committee had
recessed. Il am just collecting them
for use in the election"
The labor man who predicted
what union voters would do to him
was Lewis NJ Hermann, secretary
treasurer of the International Labor
Press, an organization of more than
200 union publications. Mr.. Herr
mann also is Republican member
OF the New Jersey Legislature.
The tilt started when the out
spoken labor leader told Senator
Taft:
You wrote this law simply to
haraSS unions and break their
treasures"
Senator Taft shouted back, Now
you've alleged a motive that is ut
terly untrue"
Election Mandate Claimed.
Mr.. Hermann replied he was
expressing an opinion held by at
least 100000 members of the
American Federation of Labor. The
election results showed a desire to
get rid of the law"
Senator Taft said the election did
not show any mandate to repeal
the labor law. He said that of 81
Senators elected in November, II
mad opposed repeal of Taft-Hartley
and only IA favored it.
He said a majority of the new
House either voted to override Presi-
dent Truman's veto of Taft-Hartley
in 1947 or favored the retention OF
the law during the campaign.
Mr.. Hermann said Senator
you're little premature. We haven't
even warmed up yet. Well take
care of the rest of those boys in the
next election. The boys in Ohio tel
me they'll take care of things-in-
Guiding you-pretty well in the next
election"
