Jim Moy Go to Baltimore
By John P. CurmichoeI

Chicago Daily News Sports Editor.
NEW YORK. Oct. 5-Are the
Yankees getting old? Are they
slipping?
Something must be the mat
ter with them" said James j.
Dykes, who manages the Ath-
letics. "They don't take pitches
from my guys like they've been
doing against the Brooklyn
pitchers. Right down the mid
die and they never swing the
bat!"
Mr.. Dykes was playing third
base for. the AS the afternoon.
in 1929, when Howard Ehmke
famed 13 Cubs in Wrigley Field.
"The Cubs ought to send Carl
Erskine a Christmas card" Jim
said, because he finally took
'em off the hook.
Matter of fact, Ehmke never
would have famed Is if it
hadn't been for me. I threw
Kiki Cuyler's grounder into the
dugout in the ninth and Joe
Mccarthy sent up Chick Tolson
to pinch-hit. He was No. 13.
"I still can hear Mccarthy,
from the bench, hollering: I can
hit him What's the matter
with you guys :. He hasn't got
a thing I told him: You're
the manager, get yourself bat
He didn't like it,"
Ehmke was a side-armer: He
kept breaking off outside curves
to Cuyler and Rogers Hornsby
and Riggs Stephenson and Hack
Wilson and Charlie Grimm and,
when they finally began reach
ing for it. he'd slip a fast ball
inside. He merely kept 'em off
balance.
But Erskine did a helluva
job" Dykes said. "You don't see
much of that old-fashioned
curve that breaks down over the
plate any more"
Ehmke in Reverse.
Erskine was Ehmke in reverse.
When Connie Mack started
Ehmke the second time in that
'29 Series he got his brains
beaten out. Erskine got his
Jumps opening day and then
came back to fan his record IA
in the third game. But at least
he Dodger hurler's reappear-
ance was expected. Ehmke's de-
but in Chicago wasn't.

A Christmas Story
BY Katherine e. Bass

from near and far, and the glOrieS
of His life, and the symbol of His
death were handed down, through
out the centuries. And today, when
so many of us have lost the glori-
Gus meaning of that First Christ
mas, there comes to us, near
Christmas time, a story that opens
our hearts for our fellow mans
misfortune.
On Christmas eve, in poverty
ridden home, I saw in reality,
that the spirit of giving, still lives,
when tragedy occurred to fam
lily, who until then, was unknown
and unheard of.
Just a week before Christmas,
a little girl risked her life to save
her little brother from the roar
ing flames of death. This little girl
was only six years old. Her name
is Avis Hardin. Her baby brother,
Melvin, was born just two days
before Christmas, two years ago.
Avis has an older brother,
Larence Charles, Z, and two sisters,
Beatrice, 5, and Katherine Ann, 3.
The father deserted them before
Melvin was born, and her mother,
Mrs. Hulene Hardin, did all she
could, to keep her brood together
To supplement the relief check she
gets once a month, she picks cot
ton, so that her children might
have enough food and clothing.
There was never anything left over
for luxuries.
Perhaps verify held those
hearts even closer. Perhaps it gave
them the love and determination
that is lacking, in so many homes,
where there is plenty. So, when
on that fateful day, while the
mother and older brother were
marketing, and the two little girls
played, outside the home the house
suddenly burst into flames that
drove the little girl from it, in fear,
but the love for her helpless little
brother trapped inside was strong
er than her fear, and she dashed
back into the blazing inferno, to
carry him to safety.
1t was the bravery of little Avis
that touched the hearts of the
city, even more than the tragedy.
Mothers held their own babies
close, and thanked God the mis-
fortune hadn't been theirs. Then
they started digging out clothes
that might come in handy for the
family. Fathers dug deep in their
pockets for an extra dollar to give.
Business men sent various house
hold articles. And a man, sent to
investigate volunteered to play the
role of Santa Claus, and see to
it that these. gifts all reached the
family safely. Deputy Sheriff Alice
Haywood spent every spare mo-
ment collecting and delivering
gifts. He was aided by Pat Willis
and Representative Carl Sims, and
his fellow workers at the sheriff's
office, who relayed the hundreds
of phpone calls which poured in.
1t was Haywood who drove me
to the home of Mrs. Reynolds, 1886
E. Ann Street, the mother of Mrs.
Hardin, with whom the family is
staying until the home can be re-
built. His eyes heavy from loss of
sleep HeywoodD was keeping his
pledge to work day and night to
aid the stricken family. And the
joy he brought with each trip was,
he felt, worth every minute of his
time.
The spirit of giving was evident
in that humble abode. Boxes of
clothing, beds, gas heater, shoes,
mattresses, and other articles, and

Carpenters Leave
 AFL, Protesting
 CIO Merger Talks

CHICAGO, R- Dickering be- between AFL and CIO for a mer- ger already has produced a major casualty. The powerful Carpen- ter's Union has pulled out of the AFL in protest.
 The 822,000-member carpenters group, a pillar of the AFL and one of it's founding unions, sud- denly severed connections with the federation Thursday.
 Action by other AFL leaders in okaying an agreement with the CIO to ban raids" of rival union membership was given as the reason, but Carpenters President Maurice A. Hutcheson conceded: "It's the climax of something that's been going on for a long time in the AFL."
 Hutcheson wrote in a letter to AFL President George Meany re- vealing this unions secession that he objected to the AFL agreeing to ban fights between AFL and CIO unions when, he wrote, the AFL hadn't taken steps to stop scraps among it's own unions.
 Hutcheson's letter complained that AFL leaders "are more con- cerned with the affairs of the CIO than they are with those of the federation"
 Meany fired back that Hutche- sons reasons for quitting didn't seem to make sense" He said the mo raiding" agreement with the CIO was a necessary first step to- ward achieving an actual AFL- CIO merger m something Meany said almost everyone agreed would benefit all labor.

U. N. Asks Reds If They Plan to Hold Convicted Allied POWs
{Continued from Page One)

{Continued from Page One) warned the Communists Tuesday that the LIN. Command would not return Red captives convicted of crimes ''until we know the at titude of the Communists toward ours" He said the LING. wanted all POWs returned.
 However, Peiping raidio said the Geneva Convention provides that prisoners facing criminal proceedings for an indictable of fense may be detained until the end of such proceedings, and, if necessary, until the completion of the punishment. The same shall apply to prisoners already convicted. :"
 Peiping charged Dulles with ''blackmail" in his threat of re- taliation and said that while he charged that the Reds do not in- tend to return all the POWs, Dulles, nevertheless, has to ad- init that it is too early yet to know for sure whether any POWs are actually being withheld"
 The broadcast said Dulles "thus unwittingly stamps himself a liar" Peiping said flatly there is no basis in the armistice agree ment for the United States to de- mand the return of "convicted POWs."
 US. State Department officials said in Washington Dulles state ment made clear that regardless of the Geneva Convention the truce agreement itself specifically states that all prisoners shall be returned.

 Greek officials said, however, that reports that all Kefallinia was sinking" were greatly exag- gerated. They said their best in formation was that such reports were based on excited messages arising from the crumbling of quake-displaced cliffs.
 PATRAI, Greece, R - Eleven more earth tremors shook the Ionian islands of Kefallinia, Itha- ca and Zakinshos Friday. Land slides, fire and death continued to stalk the survivors, already strick- en by modern Greece's worst earthquake disaster.
 But the new tremors were of subsiding intensity and air-sea aid and rescue units from many na- tions were reaching the scene.
 There still was no accurate ac- count of dead and injured. Ameri- can observers said they believed a Greek government estimate of nearly 1000 killed was too small.
 Adm. Lord Mountbatten, Medi- terranean commander of NATO naval forces, flew over Zakin- thos, the main city on the island of the same name, and reported by radio that he saw "a large part of a cliff fall in the sea-"
