|Seven-HourF Fire
Hits Jersey Pier

JERSEY CITY. N. j.. Sept. Is
R.-A spectacular fire which
sent UP torrents Of thick smoke
wrecked q huge pier last night
and caused damage estimated at
lsi,250.o 900.
Only the shell of the e50-foot
Ipier was standing today as the
blaze-of undetermined origin
burned itself out.
A fleet of fireboats from
throughout the New York harbor
battled the stubborn flames
which roared out Of control for
at least seven hours.
Weary firefighters remained on
the scene at the city-owned pier
B through the early morning to
check the Smouldering ruins.
Fifteen Of them were affected by
the smoke or suffered other in
juries. but did not require hos
Ipitalization.
When the blaze broke out at
1912 pm. yesterday, two ships
land seven barges scurried away
from the pier at the foot OF
iGrand street.
Flames jumped to one Of the
barges and to the deck of one
lof the ships. the freighter Fort
Reliance. Fireboats quickly put
out the fire aboard the freighter
as it was towed to Weehawken.
The damage to the 5Nyear-old
lpier. made Of wood and CORFU
gated iron, was estimated by
City Engineer Hugh c. Clarke.
The fire started in pilings un-
der the floor and swept through
the wooden undersides of the pier
that juts out into the Hudson
River.
The pier itself was unoccupied
except for a small part used by
the Baker Castor Oil Co. Jersey
City has owned the pier since

Political Storm Shakes
Poles Exile Government

LONDON. Sept. Is R.-You
dial number in London's West
End. The voice that replies says:
This Is the President of Poland.
The man on the line is August
Zaleski. President Of the Polish
government-in-exile and q bitter
foe of Warsaw's Red regime.
Nowadays he Is the central figure
in a political storm raging inside
London's big community of
Polish exiles.
zaleski is battling to keep his
presidency against the opposition
of many of the 100000 Polish
refugees in Britain. His oppo-
nents think somebody else, pos
sibly more effective, should lead
the fight for liberation of the
fatherland."
The family squabble among
the Poles is Gripping what has
been the most determined of the
anti Communist move m e N is
among exiles from Eastern Eu-
rope.
Lured to Russia
It comes at Q critical time.
Russia and her satellites have
launched q giant campaign to
lure home the anti-Red refugees,
many OF whom have carried on
q long-range propaganda war
against the Communists.
The Red campaign scored its
biggest success last week when
Zaleski's prime minister, Hugo
Hanke. turned UP in Warsaw.
He began broadcasting appeals
to other Polish ernigres to return
home and accept the Commu-
nists' offer Of a general amnesty,
Zaleski's aides claim Hanke
was kidnapped from train while
visiting Rome and spirited
through the Iron Curtain. The
premier, who got the job only
August 8, had left behind his
wife and three children when he
fed from Communist Poland.
Many Poles think he ''redefected''
because of them.
Zaleski this week appointed
Antoni Pajak. Q 62-year-old So
cialist. as the new premier Of
what some London newspapers
now call the phantom govern
ment."

AUGUSTA, Ga, April 7.--A

Bolt Consistent Winner
Another very capable per-
former not getting too much at
tention here, but who could take
it all, is Tommy Bolt. In case
you had forgotten, Bolt has won
twice as many tournaments since
last years Masters as any other
player. He has won four PGA
tournaments since April 1854.
and with the exception of a final
round II last year has been in
threatening position here for
three years. He was third in
1852 and fifth in SO.
Washington's Fred Mcleod,
who won the National Open
26 years before
this tournament was conceived,
hit the first ball off the tee this
cloudy, overcast day and the
chase for the $35,000 in prize
money was underway. Mr.. Mac,
73 years old, and 71-year-old
Jock Hutchison were given the
honor of playing first because
they hit quickly and get out of
the way.
Toski actually is in better posi-
ton today than last year when

Chuck Dresser. the bouricy
manager who could find ray
of. sunshine in a coal mine,
quickly dismissed the Senators
drab performance in their debut
here against the Dodgers last
night and today was exuding
confidence that Rookie Bob Kline
will step into the clubs short
stop breach.
"You can't ask for better job
than he gave us last night"
Dresser said. He showed me
some slick fielding and he was
hitting the ball on the nose. If
he can keep it up, he's my man."
A .438 hitter in his last five
games, Kline has boosted his
average for all exhibitions to 1926.
He has rebounded nicely from a
slump since Dresser ordered him
to edge up more toward the plate,
the better to whack low curves
which were torturing him.
Kline has accumulated seven
hits in his last 16 attempts to
take a commanding lead in the
three-cornered battle with Jerry
Snyder and Tony Roig for the
job. Particularly encouraging to
Chuck is the fact that the right
handed hitting Kline has OBJ
tanned all of those hits against
righthanded pitching.
Pascual Opposes Loes
Camilo Pascual will attempt
to pitch the Senators to a spring
championship over the Dodgers
tonight when the clubs clash at
Griffith Stadium at 8 o'clock.
The teams have split two games
and will, meet for the last time.
Righthander Billy Loes is due
to fire for Brooklyn.
(Tonight's game and all of
the Senator's remaining games
will be broadcast by WWDC)
Pascual will go the distance if
able, but Ted Abernathy. rookie
xighthander who is regarded as
one of the Senators future stars,
will be available to replace the
young Cuban.

Unless Eddie Stanky really is
a changed man this season. IS
will get you $40 that the scrappy
little manager of the st. Louis
Cardinals had his hands jammed
in his hip pockets, staring Bit,
terly at the ground and ripping
the turf In short jabs. with his
spikes at the Little Rock ball
park yesterday.
With his head bowed, he must
have been muttering something
like "Great Jehovah! Not an
other season like thiS!"
That may not be an accurate
quote. no matter how much
Stanky may have changed. But
it's about as close as you can
get in print.
What undoubtedly had Stanky
aroused was the terrible thing
that happened to Harvey Had
dix, his southpaw ace. and the
struggling Vic Raschi. The Chi
cago White Sox belted the pair
for 1873 decision.
It was pitching, or the lack Of
it. that outweighed the Cards
hitting power and scuttled them
in sixth place last season. Had
dix particularly had trouble. He
was of to a slow start in 1854.
Then, after gaining his form, he
was injured and lost his ef-
fectiveness again.

opening day just around the
week end-Haddix has had it

wrong in Little Rock was Walt

Dropo's homerun production to
six in eight days.
