Which Is q Luxury?

One of these items is not lux
ury. The excise or "luxury" tax
which the government collects on
liquor, tobacco and entertainment
is also levied on the household
dryer and ironer. The yacht is tax
free. When you buy a dryer or an
ironer 10 per cent of the cost is
"luxury tax" The government COL
lects this tax because these house,
hold necessities are classified as
luxuries.
There are still more than 40
million American homes without a
dryer OF ironer. The American
Home Laundry Manufacturers As
sociation is appealing to Congress
to remove this tax. Do you think
this is a fair tax? You can have it
repealed. Send a letter, post card
or telegram to your Congressman
in Washington today. Tell him
what you think of this tax. He
would like to know.

Braves Welcomed
Home by Singing
Milwaukee Crowd
By the Assoeioted Pres,

MILWAUKEE,, Aug. 13.-The
Milwaukee Braves are back home
today where three weeks ago
they started a drive that
changed them from a third
place contender to a red-hot
challenger for the National
League League pennant.
The Braves, winners of II out
of their last 10 starts, arrived by
plane early today, three hours
after beating the st. Louis Car
dinals. 81, for their sixth
starlight victory.
An enthusiastic, shouting,
singing crowd of about 1000 fans
greeted Charley Grimm's ath-
letes at General Mitchell Field.
Grimm's charges are faced
with the fact that they've only
broken even, 26-26, in their
home-stand appearances this
season. On the road they have
romped to IS victories against
81 losses.
Now, with the exception of a
three-day visit to Wrigley Field
In Chicago, the team will have
to contest the next II games at
County Stadium.

we started pitching him against
the big clubs. It's a good thing
we've got him. the way some Of
our other pitchers are going.
Whitley Ford. Grim and Johnny
Sain, that's about our pitching"
Grim. a pleasant youngster,
never figured he'd make the
Yanks last spring. I'D have
been happy to make Kansas
City," he said. In his last year
before entering the service he
was a 1875 winner at Bing-
hamton.
The prize rookie gives Turner
much of the credit for his sue
cess because Jim helped him
develop a change of pace:
Turner, himself, is high on
the youngster. Hes the Raschi
type, a fighter who takes his
business seriously" Turner said.
Don't forget we've worked him
to death, on relief and starting.
He's IA as a starter and 30 on
relief. That's why we have to
call in Sain to help him out in
the late innings. He pitched two
tough innings on relief Satur-
day and then came right back
to work nine on Tuesday"
It the Yanks ever catch Cleve-
land and win their sixth straight,
young Mr.. Grim, a wiry 6-footer,
will deserve a good share of the
credit. Once more the Yankee
preseason school has come UP
with a prize package.

an umpire, is going back to his
home in Puerto Rico.
Il go home now and try to

head by a pitched ball and have

Bernier, who played last sea-
son with Pittsburgh, admitted
that he was lucky to get off with
a suspension for the rest of the
season. Clarence Rowland, league
president. could have added a
stiff fine and the fiery Puerto
Rican could have been barred
for life.
The incident occurred while
Hollywood was playing San

Bernier, called out on strikes
by Umpire Chris Valenti-argued
vociferously, bumped the arbiter,
and, after he was ordered of the
field, slapped him across the face.

Borkeep Clicked at School
Burkeep Clicked at School
Yonks Never Figured on Grim,
But He May Win 20 Games
BY the Associated Pres.

NEW YORK, Aug. Is. Bob
the Bartender is the Yankees
candidate for rookie of -the-year
honors in the American League.
They call Bob Grim the barkeep
because his family runs a tavern
in Brooklyn and he mans the
spigots during the off-season.
When Grim beat the Athletics
Tuesday night, he became the
first Yankee rookie to win Is
games since Hank Borowy in
1912. Spec Shea might have
made it in "a If he hadn't come
up with a sore arm, and Whitley
Ford might have done better in
so If he had been with the club
all season. But those are might
have beens" and Grim's feat is
an accomplished fact. With 40
more games to go. the 24-year-
old highlander could hit the
20 mark.
Casey Stengel was talking
about the youngster after he had
beaten the AS, telling how he
happened to promote Grim to
the varsity last spring.
1.-The kid came down for our
school," he said. He was just
out of the Marines and never
played higher than Class A ball,
SO he didn't figure.
Every time we pitched him,
he got the hitters out. Jim
Turner liked him and so did
everybody else. When we go to
Vero Beach to play Brooklyn,
pitch him and he shuts out the
regular Brooklyn lineup for six
innings and they finally get some
runs on him in the seventh after
Phil Rizzuto makes an error.
II want another look. So he
goes back against Brooklyn next
time we play them. BY the end
of the spring training season,
he looks like about the best
pitcher we've got in camp so
said to George Weiss, I think
this fella can beat the bad clubs
in our league
I'VE put him in the right spots

To Quit Ruth League
In PIayoif Dispute
BY the As.oeiused Pres.

the "disgraceful" handling Of
the Region Q playoff at Clarks-

in Washington next Tuesday.
Theron D. Green, president of
the Frederick Babe Ruth League,
Inc. in strongly worded letter
to Joseph Cookson of New York.
national chairman, said New
Jersey. New York and Pennsyl-
vania probably also would quit
the league If Clarksburg repre-
sents the region.
Green said his group is not
protesting Frederick's 1910 loss
to Clarksburg in the finals, but
the manner in which the re-
gional tournament was con-
Quoted. Regional officials were
not available for comment.
Lists Four Complaints.
Green complained that re-
gional officials:
/. Permitted a Clarksburg
pitcher to pitch two games in
succession, when league rules say
a pitcher may be used only once
a week.
2. Permitted use of q major
league regulation ball instead OF
the standard Babe Ruth ball.
8. Switched the times of the
games without proper notice.
4. Used Clarksburg area UNI
pires exclusively.
He also said Frederick fans in
the stands were subject to con-
slant abuse and were the targets
of pebbles and other missiles.
Protest Rejected.
Green said he formally pro-
tested in a letter to Cookson
Tuesday and in a phone con-
versation Wednesday night was
told by the league chairman
that his protest and those OF
Pennsylvania, New Jersey and
New York were not valid. He
followed up with a letter yes
terday in which he said Frederick
would drop Babe Ruth ball If
Clarksburg plays in the national
tournament.
Green said Cookson had agreed
to hear the protests in formal
session at the Willard Hotel in

West Virginia Replaces
W&l on Cavalier Slate
BY she A.soeiosed Pres.

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va, Aug.
13.-Virginia's Cavaliers, hoping
for better things--in football
this fall after experiencing their
most disastrous season in his
tory in 1858, have -'beefed up"
their schedule by adding West
Virginia, the Southern Confer
ence champion. for a November
~ engagement here.
The Mountaineers replace
Washington and Lee, which has
dropped football, on the Virginia
card. And their addition makes
the outlook quite a bit more
formidable for Virginia Coach
Ned Mcdonald and his first as
sistant. Bill Dudley, the former
Cavalier All-American and ex-
Redskin player.
To get the Mountaineers here,
Virginia agreed to a two-year
pact which will send the Cava-
liers to Morgantown in 1855.

seven-hitter. Maury McDer-
mott was his victim, losing for
the 18th time.
There was some doubt as to
what method Washington would
employ to achieve its latest shat
out after it loaded the bases with
none out in the ninth on singles
by Mickey Vernon, Roy Sievers
and Jim Busby. Tom Implicit
solved the predicament by slap
ping double-play grounder to
Sullivan, and Ed FitzGerald then
ended 1t all with grounder to
Third Baseman Ted Lepcio.
McDermott, who came to the
Senators as an 18-game winner
and now is struggling to avoid
becoming an 18-game loser,
blanked the Red Sox for four
innings before his wildness
caught up with him. He walked
Jim Piersall and Ted Williams
in the fifth and Sam Mele's
single. Jackie Jensen's double,
Billy Goodman's bunt and Mic
key Ovens outfield fly produced
four runs. They got a fifth run
in the seventh on Jensen's single,
Goodman's double and Owens
sacrifice fly.
Stobbs Handed 81 Lead.
The Senators handed Chuck
Stobbs a 9-1 lead in the first
game and the stylish lefthander
went the distance to notch his
seventh win. Vernon led Wash
ington's 12-hit attack against
Willard Nixon, the loser, Skinny
Brown and Sid Hudson with two
doubles and two singles.
Stobbs had a no-hitter for
four innings, but Jensen cracked
his 18th homer to start the fifth
and sliced Washington's advan-
tage at that point, Al. The
Senators stirred up five singles,
a walk and used an error and
q passed ball to score five runs
and wrap UP the game in the
sixth.
NOTES-Eddie Yost, who had
PLAYED 81 straight games with
out making an error, committed
two in the first game and an
other in the second Busby
returned to Washington by plane
last night to be with his sick
wife. Yost ran his bases on
balls to 100, making the fifth
straight season he has reached
that figure.
Jensen has hit safely in all
IL games against the Senators
and is batting 1865 against his
former teammates After
pounding Washington pitching
for five straight hits in the first
two games of the series, Ted
Williams went hitless 10 times

The Senators finished their
