squad detectives are satisfied with
Oscar Collazo's statements that
he and another Puerto Rican from
New York had no help when they
located the President in the Blair
House and sought to blast their
way inside with automatic pistols.
1t is generally believed that Col
lazo and Griselio Torresola, whose
bullet-pierced body remained un-
claimed at the District Morgue
today, were inspired by the violent
tactics of Puerto Rican National
lists.
However. the wounded Collazo
being held at Gallinger Hospital
for the murder of White House
Policeman Leslie Coffelt. continues
to deny that any fellow members
of the Nationalist Party furnished
them with information, plans or
money. He had $75 in his wallet
when shot near the Blair House
steps.
Torresola's Widow Caught
FBI agents and New York police
were holding Torresola's 22-year-
old widow. who disappeared
from her hotel shortly after the
arrest on conspiracy charges OF
Collazo's wife, Rosa. AZ, another
Nationalist. In Puerto Rico up
to 400 arrests of Nationalists and
Communists had been made.
The Department of Justice. it
was learned today. has called up
on the FBI to sift all political
phases of the case in an effort
to determine If the abortive as
sassination attempt is linked to a
Puerto Rican Nationalist move
ment in this country or Puerto
Rico.
At the same time. United States
Attorney George Morris Fay said
he and his assistants would try to
present their first-degree murder
case against Collazo to the grand
jury next week. The District code
would hold Collazo guilty If con-
victed under the circumstances,

Typhoid Fever In Anchorage

No additional typhoid cases
 have been reported in the An
 chorage Spenard area this
 week and Dr. Robert L. Smith, assistant commissioner
 of health, expressed hope that the epidemic has run it's
 course.
 A total of 12 typhoid fever cases in the Anchorage area
 had resulted in a meeting of
 the medical staffs of the U. S. Airforce and of Providence Hospital in an effort to control the threatened epidemic. Authorities have clamped
 down on public meetings in
 the Spenard area where the disease is centered. Residents have been urged to boil drinking water and Dr. Joseph H. Stickler, epidemi 'ologist, is helping in the
 search for the source of the in- lection.
 He advanced the theory that
 the source of the infection
 may be a typhoid carrier. He explained that a carrier is a person who still harbors the organism in his body after
 having typhoid fever, and thus unknowingly spreads the disease.
 No connection is known sbe-
 tween food from stateside
 areas and the typhoid out break at Spenard according to health officials at the US.

IN ACCIDENTS
$500 Persons Walked to Their
Deaths During the
Year 1949
SAYS SAFETY COUNCIL

You're only two feet from death,
said the Delaware Safety Council,
anytime you venture into the
street,
About $500 persons walked to
their deaths in 1949 and the toll of
injured pedestrians ran into six
figures according to the National
Safety Council. The danger to
those who walk in-or cross
streets is ever present. They are,
in reality, just two feet from
death.
At this time of the year, the
Council said, pedestrian deaths be-
gin their dizzy climb to top the
monthly average for the rest of
the year. In cities, particularly,
the toll of walkers is staggering
during October, November, and
December. In November we can
predict that pedestrian deaths will
run about 30 to 40 per cent above
average.
The additional dangers of re-
duced visibility and inclement
weather during these months make
careIessness and disregard for
traffic rules on the part of pedes-
trians doubly foolhardy. Special
effort to emphasize these dangers
to pedestrians this month is need
ed, according to the Council.
Our immediate goal. the Council
said, is to utilize every means pos
sible to bring home to all walkers

the third hit of the inning, a single
to right, but then went out on an
attempted steal. Cristante struck
out Astbury to retire the side.
From then on until the twelfth,
both pitchers were unbeatable. Al
Bennett gave up one hit in the sixth
and another in the tenth, and while
Cristante gave up hits in the sixth,
seventh, eighth, ninth and eleventh,
we couldn't cash in on any of them.
The Blue Rocks put over the win
ming run in the top half of the
twelfth With one away, Bennett
walked Heyman and Command and
then Waytula, the Blue Rocks short
stop, who had gone hitless in five
times at bat, came through in the
clutch with single to left to score
Heyman with the winning run.
Bennett got Pliszka on pop-up to
Simmons, and Cristante on a foul
fly behind the plate.
In the bottom half, Cristante re-
tired Astbury, Tufano and Heinbaugh
in order, to end the game.
Ed Heap had four for five, includ-
ing two doubles; Jesse Levan had
two for four (his second hit dou-
ble); Rocky Tedesco came through
with three for six; and Charlie Helm
baugh also had three for six.

down the third baseline. Cunning
ham then busted one over the CEN
terfield wall, scoring Bell and Co
lombo ahead of him. Korczowski
grounded out to end the inning.
They came right back in the sew
enth to tie the game up at SIS. Mays,
the first man up, singled to left,
but Boetto popped up to Heap at
first. Then, with the hit and run on,
Rodin sent fly to short leftfield
that should have been caught easily,
but it fell between Levan and Sim
mons and went as cheap hit
When Mays saw that the ball was
apparently going to be caught he
beat it back to first, but when it
dropped safe he started again for
second and Levan could have thrown
him out by twenty feet But he
didn't even look at second to see
what was going on, but just lobbed
the ball into Tedesco at third, with
the result that instead of being two
men out and man on first, there
was only one out and man on first
and second. Easterbrook then went
into pinch hit for Arbucho and took
a third called strike for out number
two. Bell came through with sin
gle to right, scoring Mays with Rodin
going to third, and Myers followed
with another single, scoring Rodin
with the run that tied it up. Co
lombo then forced Myers for the
third out.
Despite this tough break, Al Ben
nett refused to quit and held the
Giants scoreIess in the last two in
nings.
Hagerstown won the game in the
ninth. Perrin, the first man up,
struck out. Astbury followed with
single to center but was forced at
second by Heinbaugh. Lou Soscia,
who had a walk and two singles in
his three previous appearances at
the plate, then stepped UP and slap
ped three-bagger to right, scoring
Heinbaugh with the run that won
the game

tied right down again and struck
out Boetto, got Rodin on ground
er to first and Sereda on a third
called strike.
1t was 4-3 Trenton in the fifth.
Myers, the first man up, singled to
center and then, with the hit and
run on, Colombo singled to left,
sending Myers to third, but when Le-
van booted the ball Myers scored on
the error and Colombo went all the
way to third. Then with Easter
brook at bat, Colombo was nipped
off third on quick throw from Pot
tenger to Tedesco for the first out.
Easterbrook then grounded out to
Heap but Korczowski came through
with the third straight hit, a dou-
BILE to left, but died there when Cum
bingham popped up to Pottenger.
1t was 5-3 the Giants in the sixth,
with Bradford pitching for Hagers-
town Boetto singled to left and
went to second when Levan again
booted the ball Bradford then got
Rodin and Sereda on called strikes,
but Bell connected with a single
to right, scoring Boetto, but the
side was retired when Bradford
whipped third called strike past
Myers.
The bats of the Giants doomed
again in the eighth when they added
two more runs. Rodin opened the
inning with a double to center and
Sereda sacrificed him to third from
where he scored on Bells single
to center. Myers grounded out third
to first, with Bell moving to second
from where he scored on Colombo's
three-bagger to center. Then East
erbrook grounded out to retire the
side.
Trenton's eighth and final run
came in the top half of the ninth
when Moe Cunningham got his sec
ond home run, again over the center

TRENTON HERE
FRIDAY, June 23)

Still unable to find a winning
combination, the Braves dropped
their seventh straight game on Fri
day night when Trenton took the
first of their three-game series by
a score of 8-3
Bill Allen, the losing pitcher,
started for Hagerstown but was talk
en- out for pinch hitter in the fifth
and was relieved by Ray Bradford.
Bob Pottenger was blind the plate.
Joe Sereda, a Highlander, who
was member for a short time of
the Hagerstown Owls 1949 team,
went the route for the Giants. Herb
Boetto was his catcher.
The Braves gave Allen a three
run lead in the bottom half of the
first when with two away, Astbury
walked, went to third on Levan's
single to center and both of them
scored ahead of Rocky Tedesco when
he hit one over the leftfeld wall.
Pottenger grounded out to end the
inning.
But from then on Sereda held them
scoreless the rest of the way. They
had a chance in the third inning
when, with one away, Astbury got
an infield hit to third and Heap beat
out bunt down the third baseline
to put men on first and second. But
that rally died when Levan forced
Heap at second and Tedesco forced
Levan. Another scoring chance came
in the sixth when with two away,
Pottenger singled to right and Tu-
fano followed with double to CEN
ter, sending Pottenger to third. But
that's as far as they got as Simmons
took third called strike.
Trenton tied the score in the top
half of the second. Easterbrook,
the first man up, hit one high over
the right field wall and Korczowski
followed with single to left. Cum
bingham came right behind him
and slapped one over the centerfield
wall, scoring the second and third
runs Of the inning. But Allen set

TRENTON HERE
(Saturday, June 20


The Braves lost their eighth
straight game on Saturday night
when the Trenton Giants took the
second of their three-game series by
score of 3 to l. HOWE Anderson
went all the way for Hagerstown
and the big Highlander pitched a
right, fair ball game. But his team
mates, although they had lots of
chances, could only get him one run.
Bob Pottenger was his catcher.
Ed Monahan, also a Highlander,
went the route for Trenton and in
winning racked up his eighth straight
game, to give him a record of 9 and
d. The last time he lost a game was
right here on May 26, when Joe
Reardon pitched 20 shutout. Lynn
Matte was behind the plate
The Braves scored their only run
in the bottom half of the second.
Tedesco, the first man up, got credit
for an infeld hit when Colombo and
Korczowski collided when they tried
to field his grounder. Pottenger
walked, and Pete Perrin came
through with the first of three hits,
scoring Tedesco and moving Pot
tenger to third. Simmons then got
a base on balls to fill the bases with
none out, but Monahan then pro-
ceeded to strike out Anderson and
Heinbaugh and get Astbury on a
fly to left. They left two more
stranded in the fourth when, with
two out, Monahan walked Simmons
and Anderson only to have Helm
baugh force Simmons at third.
In the fifth, with two away, Heap,
who had singled, and Tedesco, who
had walked, died on base when Pot
tenger popped up to third.
Perrin opened the sixth with a sin
gle to center, going to second when
Bell booted Simomns' grounder.
Anderson then laid down a perfect
bunt and beat it out, to fill the bases
with none out. But that's as far as
they got. Heinbaugh popped up to
first, Astbury grounded to Monahan,
who threw Perrin out at the plate,
and Heap made the third out when
he popped up to short.
Again in tie eighth, Perrin opened
the inning with single and Sim
mons walked to put the first two
batters on. But it was the same old
story the next three up couldn't
get ball out of the infeld.
The Giants tied the game at IL
in the fifth when Matte doubled and
scored on Monahan's single. They
went ahead 81 in the sixth when
Cunningham singled, went to third
on Korczowski's double and scored
after the catch when Matte flied out
to right.
Their third and final run came
in the seventh when Bell tripled
and scored after the catch when My
ers flied out to center.

AT WILMINGTON
monday. June 26l

(MOnQdy, June AOJ
In an exciting, ten-inning ball
game at Wilmington on Monday
night, that had radio station WJEJ's
listeners on the edge of their seats
until the last man was out, the
Braves bounced back into the lead
when they took the first game of the
series by score of 8 to 4.
Joe Reardon, the starting and
winning pitcher, gave really coura-
geous exhibition of pitching during
the nine innings he was on the
mound. In the tenth inning, when
the Braves put on the big rally that
won the game, Joe was hit on the
head by a pitched ball and although
he was able to leave the game under
his own power, he was unable to con-
tinue and Ray Bradford pitched the
tenth inning, and he too did fine
job Lou Soscia was behind the plate.
Jack Sanford, who shut us out in
the recent Wilmington series here
when we lost the lead, was the start
ing pitcher, but was thumbed out of
the game by Umpire Bolla while at
bat in the fifth inning for too vigor-
ously protesting called strike on
him, and Dick England took his place
on the mound to become the losing
pitcher. He lasted until the big tenth
when he was knocked out and Eddy
Lyons finished the inning. Matt
Pliszka did the catching.
Due to Ed Heap being handed an
indefinite suspension for jumping the
club, Jesse Levan took over the first
base chores and handled the job like
a veteran. Pete Perrin played In
