ELIMINATION ROUND STARTS FRIDAY NIGHT Rotary and Lions to Meet at 6 o’clock in First Game The elimination tournament amoiig tlie four junior league baneball earns in Decatur will start Friday night at South Ward diamond at 6 o'clock. It was announced today . by Hubert "Hex" Cochrane, general baseball chairman. The notary junior t-am will play the Lions team Friday and ou next Monday the Moose amt Legion teams will mix. The two winner;, will play the finals next Wednesday night to determine which local team will go to Alexandria Saturday, July 19 to enter the district tourney. The district tourney Is the second leg of the American elimination contest to determine the national championship Junior baseball team. The league standing will remain as It now is until the elimination games are held. The elimination games will not count in the season standing. A stand will be conducted at the baseball grounds Friday, Monday and Wednesday evenings to help defray expenses of the winning team to Alexandria. Much comment is heard on the probable winner of the county title. All four teams have been going good the last week. It is generally conceded that the Legion has one of the strongest Infields; The Moose and Lions teams have good batteries and the Rotary team has the best hitting aggregation. At any rate the games will be interesting and the public is invited to attend the tourney games. Cochrane and his committee met last night and passed a resolution condemning the method of “razzing" used by some of the fans and urging that the fans support the umpires. MAJORS SEVER WITH MINORS Chicago, July 10 —(U.R)~ Baseball's h'gh commissioner, Kenesaw Mountain Landis, was believed ■waiting today an opportunity to open negotiations which would nettle the differences that caused American and National League owners to severe relations yesterday witli the five “non-selectlve” minor leagues. The minors affected by the severance of relations are the American Association, International, Pacific Coast. Western and ThreeI Leagues, each of which have sent many players to the majors. Fifteen of the 16 major league owners at a joint session yesterday voted to neither purchase any player from the five leagues in question nor release any players to them

unless they adhere to the selective draft agreement made" nine years ago. Breaking off of relations with the five minor leagues hits directly at the major league clubs which , own interests in the smaller teams and depend largely upon them for players. Commissioner Landis wan absent from the major league owners’ meeting at which the severance resolution was adopted. It was believed he would await the reaction of both major and minor league teams affected before making any j move to heal the breach. The present break between the major and minor leagues has brew-1 ed since 1921 when the selective draft agreement was made. The agreement provided that major league clulie should be allowed to select players from the minors at prices ranging from $5,000 to class AA major teams to SI,OOO to class' D minors. The minor leagues, however,' have refused to sell players at the) set price and the major owners have charged they were asking exhorbitant sums. Major league officials declared this policy was unfair both to players who deserved advancement and to organized baseball in general.

, New York, July 10.— (U.R) — The Washington Senators, dark horse of the 1930 American league pen-, nant race, have convinced base- ] bal fans and rival teams that theirl success is not of the "morning glory” variety and started the last half of their schedule today as joint I favorites with Philadelphia to win 1 the pennant. With half of their 154 games played, the Senators are leading their 1 ague with 51 victories and 26 defeats for a percentage of .6621 The Senators have played steady ball throughout the season, remaining in fiist division since the race! opened. Winning streaks of ten, nine l eight and seven games respectively. have aided the Senators’ advance while their only extended losing streak was the loss of five consecutive games during the last week ih May. They lost three games In a row on two occasions and twice lost two in succession, but the other 11 defeats have been scattered. Boston and New York have been the easiest clubs for Washington to beat, but the Senators also have been successful against other rivals and hold the advantage against! eve.y team except St. Louis. Their record against the seven American league clubs follow. Opponent Won Lost Philadelphia 7 6 New York 9 2 Cleveland 5 3 Detroit ..... 7 3 St. Louis 5 6 Chicago 7 4 Boston 11 2 A superb pitching staff, probably the best in the major leagues, is the chief factor in keeping the Senators out in front. Nineteen of the last 20 pitchers who have started for Washington have finished their games—a unique record for the “rabbit hall era — and the fine twirling has enabled the Senators to win 18 of their last 20 games for the best winning record made by any major league club ‘ I

"The high speed and increasing [congestion on state highways demand" additional safety measures to protect life and property," Brown said. On many of the highways throughout the state, he said, poles are within two feet of the pavement and it is impossible to maintain a standard berm or shoulder, thus creating a traffic hazazrd. Where some companies refuse to I cooperate with the commission, ; Brown indicated that legislation I may be sought to compel them to set poles a certain, safe distance I from the pavement. 0 *-«*•••* — **arte at Homa
