For the last generation the
Senators road show has pos
sessed no more appeal than a
second-rate carnival, but the
name Of Harmon Killebrew is
creating curiousity around the
American League. Henceforth
the clubs travels could be more
profitable.
The Killer became the undis-
puted major league home run
leader as he forged ahead OF
Ed Mathews of the Braves last
night with his 18th as a crowd
of 1885 saw the Senators drop
"a SIS game to the Indians at
Griffith Stadium.
Harmon's latest blast, which
exploded of his bat and landed
10 or II rows from the top of
the bleachers in left-center, will
rank with some of his more for
midable moon shots. Crunched
of Herb Score with none
aboard in the sixth inning, il
was his 18th of the month
leaving him six shy of Rudy
York's record for a months
play. Harmon has 10 games re-
naming this month.

feels Roy may be able to play
tomorrow night when the Sem

Misses 10 Starts
Sieyers has been out of the
starting lineup on 10 occasions
this season. first with a bad
back, then the shoulder damage
The Senators have missed not
only the stimulation he pro-
vides on attack, but also his
adequate f1rst-base play.
If Roy is out for another pro-
longed period, the Senators will
suffer. He returned to the
lineup with a nasty bruiSe still
decorating his shoulder, and
his latest trouble is causing him
considerable concern.
The Senator's captain has
averaged 20 homers a season fol-

Brothers Confuse
Arresting Police

KANSAS CITY, July 8 (AP).
Jack, Sam and William Hen
ley are brothers and they look
alike.
Police Sergt. Robert Dowd
and Detective Norman O'Hare
went to their home yesterday to
arrest Jack, wanted in Green's
boro, N. c., on charge of
breaking and entering.
They found two men.

better go ahead and give up,

took him in"
At the station the man said
he wasn't Jack. He was Will
liam and his flngerprintS would
prove it.
I'VE tore back out there, but
when we got there the real
Jack Henley was gone" Sergt.
Dowd Said. They found Sam,
however, and arrested him.
William and Sam were held
for investigation of aiding and
abetting the escape of a fugi-
tive.
Police are still looking for
Jack.

A major complaint from

Mr.. Nottingham.
Mr.. Nottingham said he I'M

Philippines Hit
u. S. Trade Move

MANILA. July 8 (AP).-The
Philippine government has
threatened to cancel imports
Of American surplus COM
modities because the United
States is raising the prices in
pesos to met the new Philip
pine foreign exchange tax.
Some sources said the gov
eminent is threatening to
cancel all purchases Of Ameri-
can cotton for the local textile
industry and to buy instead
from Egypt and Mexico.
A special session of the
Philippine Congress approved
the tax last week. President
Carlos Garcia is expected to
sign the bill soon. 1t puts a
tax OF rs to 40 per cent on
pesos used to buy dollars for the
purchase of imports.
The Philippines previously
purchased United States agri-
cultural surplus goods and
certain aid TENS distributed by
the international Cooperation
Administration in pesos at the
official rate Of two to the
Uniede States dollar.
With passage Of the new tax,
the United States notified the
Manila government that Amer
lean laws call for payment to
be made at the exchange rate
in force for commercial inn
ports. Thus between 2.5 and
2.8 pesos-instead of 2 pesos
would have to be paid for each
dollars worth of goods.

slaughter conviction Of Lewis
r. VIM, who was convicted
last October in the Staying of
his 5-day-old baby in March,
1858, by dropping it from a
third-story window.
Before the trial, Assistant
United States Attorney Harold
Titus had asked a District
Court judge to order a com
plete and thorough mental ex-
animation" of VIM.
In response to this, the judge
ordered an examination to show
whether VIM was mentally
competent to stand trial.
Action Questioned
In the appellate court opin-
ion handed down today by
Judges David L. Bazelon,
Charles Fahy and Walter M.
Bastian, Judge Bazelon queS-
toned the District Courts fail
ure to require an examination
thorough enough to show
WINS mental condition at the
time of the crime.
He pointed out that such an
examination never was given

cases where insanity is expected
to be raised as a defense, court
sources agreed. In some
cases defense attorneys have
refused to allow Govern
ment doctors to examine their
clients, leaving the prosecution
in the dark as to insanity evil
dence until a trial actually
starts.
But today'S opinion apparent
ly would give a prosecutor ac-

a better chance to show-as
the law requires-that a de-
