Neither Yamagishi nor Fujikura is the player Satoh was, and Satoh despite his ranking near the top of the world's best ten several years ago, never was a certainty against the crack players of three or four countries.

Lack Power Both the two first ranking Japanese lack power. They just can't put the ball away when the opportunity is afforded. Time and again, in the cup tilt with Australia, vital points would have been theirs had they been able to step in and smite the ball with something resembling vigor. This lack of speed is noticeable not only during rallies, but in service as well. Neither averaged an ace a set, and rarely did they send home a service which enabled them to ride into the net for a vol ley.

Fujikura is handicapped by his small stature. Short, and slender to the point of being downright skinny, he tires quickly and cannot hope to be at his best in five set matches. In his match with Crawford, which was played in cool weather and went only three sets, he was completely spent at the finish. Yamagishi and Fujikura are not without good points, however. Both are remarkable getters, and put their racquets on seemingly impossible shots.

Their change of pace is as beautifully timed and masked as that of any player you ever watched, including Monsieur Cochet, and both possess ideal playing temperaments. BISSELS TROUNCE ,18 T0 12 Game Stopped After Five Innings on Account of Rain Bissells strengthened their hold on second place in the Firemen's league by trouncing the Hooks 18 to 12 Tuesday night in an abbreviated game, cut short by threatening weather. Played in a dust and wind storm that at times made it almost im possible for the fans to recognize the players, the game was called at the end cf the fifth inning. Trailing 10 to 12 at the opening of the fifth frame, the Bissells put on a rally that netted eight runs. In this inning 12 men went to bat.

"Dutch" Insinger was the batting star of the evening, cracking out three homers, one inside of the park. Bill Ingold and Arnold Boet-tcher enjoyed a perfect evening with the willow, each getting two for two. Batting with a strong wind, the players got a total of 29 hits, 16 being extra base clouts. The girls' game scheduled between the Irene Shoppe and Le-vines was called off on account of the weather and will be played at a later date. The box score: Bissells (18) AB.R.

Samuel McKelvie, former governor, urged Simmons' election and warned that "we won't be cele brating independence on July 4 if the presents are followed."

NO SYMPATHY IN IEBICMHCUIT Cronin Boys Gradually Working Up Toward League Lead New York, June 20 CLP) It now appears that much sympathy has been wasted on the Washington Senators. Joe Cronin's boys were given a great deal of pitiful regard by competitors in the upper bracket of the American league early this season, but it seems the champs have pulled a sneak. Mickey Cochrane and his Detroit Athletes will find no round-heeled brigade when they go in today where congress went out. Yesterday, while the Detroiters and Yankees were idling away a rainy afternoon, the Senators wound up 'the series with Cleveland, splitting a twin bill and taking the series, 3 to 2.

Not "On Ropes" A hasty inspection of the record reveals that the Nats have won 2 of their last 3 series, and evened the third. They have won 10 of their last 15 games, 8 of the last 10, which is a lot more than the leading Yanks or second place Tigers have won. The champs are not on the ropes, by any means. They are just 2 and a half games out of first place. Cronin and his mates manufactured 14 hits for 24 bases to take the opener yesterday from Cleveland.

Manush and Stone homered in the first to get a running start, Stewart and Alyer drove in 2 in the 2nd to make it a cinch. The Senators won, 6-2. The second game went to the Indians, Hal Trosky leading the assault with a homer in the second. He drove in two in the second to make the final score 3-0. Boston and St.

Louis were rained out. No others were scheduled. St. Louis blew a 5-run lead to the Phillies and lost in the 12th, ten to eight. The Cards used five pitchers.

Paul Dean losing the game. Giants Take Third The Giants took advantage of this lapse in St. Louis to hang up their third straight over Pie Tray-nor's Pirates, 5-3. Since the Cubs also lost it advanced the Giants a full game over nearest rivals. Ed Brandt left-handed the third place Chicago Cubs into submission in a brilliant pitching encounter with Pat Malone.

The Braves won, 2-1, elevating themselves into the first division over the sliding Pittsburghers. The Cincinnati Reds evened affairs with Brooklyn, 11-7, after losing the series opener yesterday. Yesterday's Heroes Randolph Moore, Braves His homer in sixth beat the Cubs, 2-1. Mel Ott, Giants Doubled, scored in 2nd; tripled, scoring two in third. Jim Bottomley, Reds Fielded 13 chances perfectly; singled, doubled, drove in four runs.

Cut Davis, Phillies Held Cards hitless 7th to 12th, doubled in 12th to score one, won 10-8. Hal Trosky, Indians Homered in second, singled, fielded 13 chances without error.

LATEST GOOFIE MOVIE NEWS EVENTS WALL ACt SOURCE OF GRIEF FOR MAXIE BAER Love Affairs Take Big Toll of Time, Cash from Champion FINANCES ALWAYS IN LEGAL TANGLE San Francisco, June 20 (LP) Flap- id progress fistic and amorous was made by Max Baer after he defeated King Levinsky and Ernie Schaaf and came to be considered a contender for the heavyweight championship. As a country boy fighter on the way up.

Max had taken plenty of taps on the chin while he oggled film beauties at ringside in Los Angeles. Now he was holding these same film beauties (at least some of them) on his lap. He liked it. He says they did. too.

This was the life said Max. Hollywood hadn't beckcned to Maxie as yet, but he went Hollywood, regardless. He bought goid-linked slave bracelets for his arm and marcelled his naturally curly black hair. He put more grease on his locks than Rudolph Valentino used to do. Forty suits at a time were not too many fcr Maxie.

And his cars must have 16 cylinders and very gaudy paint. He was a big shot on the Pacific coast now and the east was beginning to prick up its ears. Dorothy Dunbar had divorced him so his Don Juan tendencies were unhampered. Spends All Max's tangled finances may have had something to do with all of this. Money did him no good.

J. Hamilton Lorimcr, his one-time manager, was and still is suing An-cil Hoffman for alleged alienation of Max's contract. Girls galore, were suing him for various grievances concerning his- love life. Max figured he might as well have fun with what money he could get his hands on. Some of the girls collected.

Olive Beck, his youthful sweetheart in Livermore, the old heme town, had the foresight to preserve certain letters written by Maxie. Olive was a pip. So were the letters pips. Maxie paid this1 suit before it got to court. Maxie established two legal departments one tc take care of managerial suits and the other the ladies.

This latter department is supposed to get Maxie off as cheaply as possible when the heart affairs cool. Both departments are very busy. Technique Terrific Max's technique with the fair sex is terrific. It is cither very good or -ery bad. There is the Sally Rand episode.

Sally was putting on a prmier of her fan dance for newspapermen in a San Francis-co hotel room. The lame and the halt and all but the blind of journalism were there. So was Max. No cne-knew how he got in. Festivities were at their highest and Sally's feathers were flying merrily when Max suddenly produced a telegram he said proved he was engaged to Miss Edna Dunham, a New York socialite.

Many of the reporters abandoned Sally to flash the word to New York. Everyone was amazed, including Miss Dunham, who was. fcr the mcst part frigid, but dropped a few pertinent remarks as to what she thought of Maxie. What she thought wasn't much. She later married Phil Plant, multi-millionaire divorced husband of Constance Bennett.

About this time, Bacr was training to fight Levinsky. Jack Sharkey had won the title from Max Schmeling and Madison Square Garden politics prevented a rematch of the German and Sharkey. Jack Dempsey stepped in and matched Baer with Schmeling. It was the big break fcr Baer. New Ycrk had considered Baer a clown after he was beaten by Tommy Loughran and in his first fight with Schaaf.

Baer turned semi-serious as the Schmeling date approached. He was deeply tanned and trained to perfection. Max battered the German to tuib-mission in the ninth round. Today's Sport Parade By HENRY McLEMORE United Press Staff Correspondent London. June 20 (LP) Unless my memory is playing a prank.

Frederick J. Perry of the English Davis cup team was quoted not so long ago as saying that Japan, and not Australia, France nor America, was the nation he and his comrades feared in international tennis. And, unless my eyesight is playing a prank, Mr. Perry's rating of the Japanese is. like the death of you know who.

highly exaggerated. I saw the Japanese cup team ousted from the trophy chase by Australia and you may take it from me that only miraculous development can make it formidable inside of several years. Not the Best Of course. Perry made his statement before the tragic death of Jiroh Satoh, but even with Satoh alive and making his ever so deft volleys, it still would be several cuts under the best. The strength of the Japanese team rests mainly in its two top singles players, J.

Yamagishi and J. Fujikura, and rated off the form of. these two men against the Australians, Vivian McGrath and Jack Crawford, I can name half a dozen American players who would whip them regularly and twelve more who cer- Chicago, June 20 (LP) Regimentation of industry and other methods of planned economy in the "new economic order" have no place in American life. Col. Frank Knox, publisher of the Chicago Daily News, told the Association of Commerce today.

Col. Knox based his conclusion on observations during visits to Russia, Germany and Aus tria. In every country where the regimentation idea has been adopt ed. Col. Knox said, democracy not only has been cast aside "but is scorned and laughed at as a huge mistake an abandoned theory." "Those things we hold dear," Col.

Knox told the association, "the right of free speech, the free press, free assembly, the right of petition, the right of trial before a jury of one's peers all are gone." BEAHOLUMBUS Sheldon Juniors Defeat Local Juniors, Score 4-1 Omaha Y. M. C. A. Juniors at Camp Sheldon defeated the Columbus Juniors, 4-1, in a kittenball game at Camp Sheldon Tuesday evening.

The Campers took the lead in the third and were never overtaken. They scored two runs in that stanza and added two more for good measure in the fifth. Columbus' one run was in the fourth. Columbus outhit the campers, 13-8, but their hits were not as timely. Figures on the game: Omaha (4) AB.R.

Smith OMAHA CAMPERS Stockton, June 20 (LP) A white-haired prospector carried away with him today the undisclosed secret of the location the "Lost and of Lemuria. where the streets are paved with gold." Lemuria, according to J. C. Brown, is buried deep in the Cascade range of the Rockies. Its treasure vaults, he estimated, contain not one cent less than $50,000,000.

Eighty Stockton residents were to have shared this fabulous wealth. Their dreams, however, have been shattered. The 79 year old miner unfolded his story of the lost land to Stockton newspaper men. To his listeners Brown told of finding a tunnel lined with tempered copper. Stepping over the bones of a lost race of giant men as he followed the tunnel, he reached a cave.

The walls -were lined with gold. Utensils scattered around the place were of the same precious metal. Although Brown neglected to explain why he had not capitalized immediately on his. discovery, enthusiasm among his listeners developed the "Lemuria Treasure Hunters, Ltd." A day was set for the expedition to sail. Brown went away to obtain a glass-bottomed boat, but days went by without his return.

Police were puzzled by his purpose in telling the "tall tale." He had not collected a cent from anyone. COURT UPHOLDS BANK DEPARTMENT POWERS Clay Center, june-20 (LP) Discretionary powers of the state banking department in the matter of closing state banks were upheld here by District Judge Munday who refused to grant an injunction to prevent the closing of the Clay' County State bank of Edgar. 1 The decision was said to be the first in a case in which the powers' granted under a new banking sta-; tute had been attacked. Radke. chief counsel for the state banking department, expressed belief that the decision upholds the' statute which transfers failed state banks from the judicial to the exe- cutive branch of government ant sustains the discretionary -power of control given the banking department.

The suit grew out of an order of the banking department closing the Clay County State- bank on last June 10. The bank asked the court to enjoin the banking department' from placing its affairs in receivership.

Headline Brilliant Entry List Los Angeles, June 20 (LP) The nation's speediest track stars launched vigorous training today as experts and amateurs attempted to pick the winning team in the NCAA championship meet here Friday and Saturday. Louisiana State, Southern Cali fornia and Stanford were the three outstanding contenders with most experts agreeing that any one of the three teams might walk off with the 1934 title. There was every likelihood of new world records being set. California Strong Southern California's sheer man power of 27 entrants gave it perhaps the best chance of taking the honor that last year went to Louisiana State in the Chicago competition. Coach Dean Cromwell's chief worry was whether Bob Lyon, crack U.

S. C. high hurdler, would return from a Mexican fishing trip in time to compete. Lyon is notor ious for forgetting about every thing else when someone waves a fishing pole in his direction. Louisiana State's team apparently offers the most strength for its size.

But with only seven tigers here to meet, every man must win a place to keep in the running. Stanford's chances rest on pos sibility of each man approaching his best individual performance of the season. Eighty-five universities and colleges which have entered men in the meet will reap liberal shares in the total number of points, but no team is given a chance of stepping far out into the scoring column. Cunningham Ready Glenn Cunningham, all-time star in the mile, and Ralph Metcalfe, current splash in the century, took vigorous workouts yesterday upon arrival from Kansas university and Marquette respectively. Additional athletes who were shaking kinks out of their legs today represented De Pauw, Illinois State, Manhattan college, University of Texas, Oklahoma University, Central State Teachers, Butler, West Virginia, Marquette, Michigan State, Miami university, Rice and Nebraska.

LEGION TEAMS PLAY TIE Six-Inning Contest Ends In Deadlock; Score 11 to 11 Two American Legion kittenball teams, captained by Frank Dietz and Al Pospisil, battled six innings to a tie, 11-11, at Pawnee park Tuesday evening.

Pospisil's team scored two runs in the first half of the first inning, but Dietz' squad went ahead with four in its half. Two more in the second for Pospisil's crew tied the score at 4-4.

In the third inning the Pospisils scored five runs to take a lead and then added two more in the fourth. It took until the fifth for the Dietzmen to tie the count, which they did with three runs each in the third and fourth and one in the fifth. Both teams were held scoreless in the sixth and the game ended in a tie. The lineups: Dietzmen Dietz. Rich, O.

Other field auditing and disbursing offices will be set up in Kansas City and San Franciso. In Minnesota, South Dakota. North Dakota and Wisconsin the program is under way with 213.118 head of cattle already purchased. Lincoln, June 20 (LP) Future course of the federal cattle buying program in Nebraska was under discussion today at a meeting of livestock men and drought officials at the agricultural college. Prof.

H. J. Gramlich, director of the federal purchasing plan in Nebraska, says that before any cattle buying can be done in the state, areas must be designated as primary or emergency drought counties. None has yet been designated, although the whole state is classed as a secondary area. 1 J.
