examine the work of Christopher
Fry, the sensational new British

busiest melodrama of the late
summer. The movement Of Di-
rector Endf1eld's camera intimates
that his job is to get in the coun-
terpart of every good scene in
every tough movie of the last dec
ade.
These include the one in which
Duryea shakes down the crime
syndicate boss for $4,000. another
in which the latter retaliates by
kicking the reporters face out of
shape, and two or three in which
the big publisher finds himself
becoming an involuntary partner
in the underworld government.
Before the picture ends, every
thing is tossed into it with about
the same tidiness that is found
In the children's room at mid
afternoon.
There is an excellent cast In
1.-THE Underworld Story" and.
generally speaking, its members
make an admirable effort to bring
order out of the scripts chaos.
Duryea. as usual, puts together
an exciting portrait OF man bent
on seeing how depraved one hui
man can get. His latest heel is
a man who never runs out of
ideas, the next one a little gaudier
than the one 1t replaces. DaSyl-

work seriously when the script
must tempt him to feel frivolous.

ever. 1t is the work Of Author
Craig Rice, a woman with a
wildly stimulated imagination and
an inborn conviction that this is
q criminal universe. Miss Rice
virtually blows her top, as the
phrase goes on her own literary
level, in this melodramatic fan
tasy.
Any one who can accept it on
that premise might find it occa-
sionaliy diverting. This is made
the easier by the direction of
Cyril Endfleld and the sometimes
comedy playing which seems to
suggest that 1.-THE Underworld
Story" Is not to be taken at face
value.
Actually, there are some rather
good performances by Duryea as
the biggest heel journalism ever
produced, Howard Da Sylvia as a
phychopathic crime syndicate
boss, and Actor Marshall as a
newspaper chain publisher who
uses the power of the press for
some extraordinarily personal
purposes. Even if these are too
fictional to be real, they hit
dramatic spots here and there.
Miss Rice's tumultuous tale is
the case history of a reporter
whose talent for blackmail is four
cuts above sheer genius. This is
Duryea's man and If his like
never was seen on land or sea. it
at least is visible on Keith's
screen.
His professional life is a frenzied
quest to get something" on every
body, the district attorney, the
boss Of the crime syndicate, pub
fishers who won't give him jobs,
and others. He figures it this way:
Why dig up stuff for publication
In newspapers at the salaries they
pay when the victims will pay 100
times as much to keep 1t out Of
the papers?
Instead Of throwing this char
acter into q vat of molten metal
In the stereotype department on
a busy Saturday night, his editoRs
are constantly being outwitted ~
him. In one way or another, as
Miss Rice's flaming imagination
goes, he forces the bosses to prac-
tice his type Of journalism instead
Of their own.
The merry-go-round really be-
gins to whirl when this heel ties
into the killing Of a big publishers
daughter-in-law. This crime,
which is too labyrynthine to be
traced here, has the appearance
OF an inside job and the excite
ment the villain whips up over
1t makes 1t seem like the only story
the Nations press is working on.
AS a matter Of fact, the sug-
gestion is that they are throwing
out the advertising to make space |
for "the Stanton case"

AT LANCASTER
(Friday, June 81

The Braves took their two-game
series with Lancaster, winning the
second game on Friday night by a
score of 5 to 3.
Jim Allen threw a four-hitter at
the Red Roses and also struck out
four, but he gave up six walks and
cut loose with two wild pitches.
Superb defense by his teammates,
however, who cut down three Ian
caster runners trying to steal and
came up with their 51st double
play, got him out of any trouble his
wildness might have CAUSED. Bob
Pottenger was his catcher
Red Sweeney, a highlander (the
losing pitcher started for Lancaster,
but was thumbed out Of the game in
the eighth for arguing too strenuous
ly with umpire Burnett, and was
relieved by Al Gilbert. Joe Soskovic
did the catching.
The Red Roses jumped into one
run lead in the bottom half of the
first. With two away, Wade walked
and went to second on a wild pitch.
Then, with the hit-and-run sign on,
Wallis beat out a roller to second

beat out hit to deep short and then
went to second on wild pitch. Wal
ly Kowalski then slammed one over
the leftfeld wall, scoring behind

to talk to Allen and again came up
with his magic formula for steady
ing his pitchers, for the next three
batters couldn't get ball out of the
infeld.
Hagerstown won the game in the
eighth when they came up with three
big runs. With one away, Freund got
his second hit, a single to center,
and went to second on Rocky Ted

Braves put on a real fight in the bot

all happened after two were out
Here's the story:
After Simmons and Heap had been
retired, Freund walked and went to

then grounded to Koppenhaver at
short who booted the ball and all
hands were safe, filling the bases.
Charlie Heinbaugh then came
through with a single to center,
scoring Freund and Tedesco, with
Tufano going to third Tom Astbury
came right behind him with three
Dagger to center, scoring Heinbaugh
and Tufano with the third and
fourth runs. Bob Pottenger then
went in to pinch hit for Long and
Wollgast relieved Moford on the
mound. Pottenger greeted him with
double to center, scoring Astbury
with the fifth run of the inning.
Reardon, batting for Bradford, drew
base OH balls and Simmons follow
ed with hit to deep short, and the
bases were loaded with the tying
run on third and the potential win
ming runs on second and first. Mana
ger Corbett then yanked out Vol

Keeping Up With The Braves
By Doug Stewart

forcing in Simmons and Heap for
the second and third runs. That was
all for Whitmore and Desert took
over. Charlie Heinbaugh, the first
man to face him, singled to left,
scoring Freund and Tedesco, with
Tufano stopping at second. But
then Desert put out the fire. Asst
bury struck out, Pottenger popped
up and, Bennett, batting for the
second time in the inning, grounded
to the pitcher.
That was all the scoring until the
sixth inning when the Braves bat
ted around again to drive in four
more runs. Pottenger, the first man
up, doubled to right and then went
to third on a passed ball. With the
infield playing close Bennett smash
ed one down the third baseline that
Pair could barely get his glove on
and it went out to the leftfield for a
clean single, scoring Pottenger
Simmons then walked but was forced
at second by Heap, with Bennett
moving to third. Freund also walk
ed, filling the bases Tedesco then
grounded to Littrell at short who
booted the ball. with Bennett scoring
on the error and leaving the bases
still loaded. Desert then walked
Tufano, forcing in Heap. Helm
baugh was up next and he forced
Tufano at second, with Freund scor-
ing on the play. Astbury popped
up to short to end the inning.
1t was 1913 Hagerstown in the
seventh when Sunbury picked ur
two runs Crumling walked to
open the inning. Littrell ther
grounded to Heinbaugh at second
who made a bad throw to Simmons
trying to get Crumling, with both
runners safe on the error Manager
Staller, pinch hitting for Desert
then singled to right, scoring Crum-
ling and sending Littrell to third
Bennett then uncorked wild pitch
scoring Littrell with the second run
but he then retired the three batter2
in order to end the inning.
Both teams picked up run in the
eighth. Sunbury's came on the
ridiculous decision by the Umpire
when Mclean, who had walked
was allowed to circle the bases ant
scored. Hagerstown's run came
when Heap, who had walked, scored
on Freund's double to left.
