o TROOPS STILL GUARD MARION (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE* County Prosecutor Harley Handin planned to confer today with the attorney general about plans for prosecution of leaders of the mob and a third negro, Herbert Cameron, who was charged with aiding Shipp and Smith in killing Claude Detter and attacking Miss Mary Ball, Deeter's sweetheart. Hardin said the names of at least 20 members of the mob were known and that action against them probably would be taken by the September grand jury. At the request of Mayor Jack Edwards, all Marion ministers yesterday included in their sermons pleas that order be maintained and that there be no further racial out breaks. o 1 < Hen Mothers Pigs Logansport, Ind., —(UP) —Four baby pigs on a farm near here have as their proud '‘mother'’ a hen.

Ed Engeler was low I medalist in the preliminary round with 83 strokes for the 18-hole aT fair. Closely on Engeler’’s heels came C. O. Porter, club champion for the last two years and said by golfers to be a strong contender for the title again this year. Behind Portercame W. A. Klepper, L. F. Comer | and Ira Fuhrman, all doped as ser-1 iously flirting with the cup this year. Others who qualified were: Dick McConnel, C. K. Champlin, Joe McConnell, Dr. Burt Mangold, H. H. Myers, Eno Lankenau, A. R. Ashbaucher, H. F. Ehinger. Dr. J. G. Neptune, Herman Laifkenau and V. J Bormann. No one of«the sixteen qualifiers is considered a dub and each con- ( tender has a good opportunity to | upset the dope bucket and win the; chip.

All rounds, will go 18-holes until the finals when the two finalists will strugle over 36-holes. o ROBINS WAVER AS CUBS SPURT I New York. Aug. 11. — (U.R) —The Brdoklyn Robins, staggering under three straight defeats administered by the St. Louis Cardinals, faced the loss of their place at the top of the National league today. If the Chicago Cubs win from the Boston Braves and the Robins lose to the Cardinals, the Cubs will gain the National league leadership by one point. The standing in that event would be: W. L. Pct. Chicago 65 44 .596 Brooklyn 66 45 .595 In the short space of two days the National league tjpee has been turned topsy-turvy. After Friday’s games Brooklyn held a lead of 3% games over the Cubs and 5% games over the third-place New York Giants and had rolled up three straight victories in the west. After losing ac lose decision, 4-3, to the Cardinals on Saturday, the Robins reverted to their sixth place form of last year in Sunday’s double header and were beaten twlhe by St. Louis, 8-2 and 4-9, and had their lead cut to on. game over the Cubs. With the crucial 4-game series against the Cubs openeing at Chicago, tomorrow, the Robins are now face to face with their most Dying situation of the season, and a e in no shape for th'- test. Bill Clark, Adolfo Luque, and . Jumbo Elliott, three of t,h? Rob- ■ ins' five leading pitchers, have failed in their last starts, and their hitters folded up against Butleigh
Grimes and Bill Hallahan Sunday, making only seven hits off the former and but five hits off the latter. After scoring in the first two InI j nings of the first game, the Robins | were blanked for the next 16 consePutive Innings by Grimes and I Hallahan. The Robins filled the bases with ' only one out in the second inning ■ of the second game but Jake Flow- ! ers hit into a double play. In the fourth and fifth innings Hallahan struck out Herman. Wright, BisI sonette, Lopez and Bressler in succession. Six games behind Brooklyn up •'until last Friday the New York ■ Gjants have fought their way back 1 into a dangerous position in the '.race, by winning three straight (games while the Robins were losI ing three out of four. The Giants ! have won 16 out of their last 20 games, the best record of the three contenders over that period. The Giants are 3% games behind the Robins and 2% behind the Cubs. While the Robins and Cubs are engaging in their important series the G ants stand to improve their position during the 4-game series at Cincinnati, opening Wednesday ' after an off day tomorrow. o-_____ l BASEBALL BRIEFS Stellar pitching in all National league games featured Sunday's major league results, with three shut-outs registered in the six games and a fourth wiped out by a ninth inning tally. The St. Louis Cardinals won twice from the Brooklyn Robins, 8-2 and 4-0, and reduced the Robins National league lead to one [game over Chicago. The Chicago Cubs annexed a double header from the Boston Braves, 6-0, and 11-1. The Phillies also won a double victory, winning from Cincinnati, 18-0, and 4-3. There were three five-hit games and one three-hit turned in by National league pitchers in Sunday’s games. Charley Root allowed the Braves but three hits in winning the first game. Pat Malone pitched a five-hit game in winning the second game. Other five-hit games were turni ed in by Claude Willoughby, Phil- > lies right-hander, in blanking the i Reds in the first game and Bill Hali lahan, Cardinals’ erratic southpaw, ; who downed the Robins, 4-0, In the . second game. Hallahan struck out s 12 Robins. , t Phil Collins, who won his 13th ■ game for the Phillies in the second game against Cincinnati, narrowly , missed a shut-out, but after blankDing the Reds for eight innings ’ weakened and was nicked for three a runs in the ninth. 1 There was some heavy hitting I in two of three American league games Sunday, Washington beating Cleveland, 18-6 and the New s York Yankees defeating the St. i- Louis Browns, 14-11. In the other a game Earl Whltehil won his ninth t straight victory in pitching Detroit d to a 4 to 2 victory over the Boston Red Sox. d Sam Jones won his 11th game of >-1 the season for the Senators in de- -- feating the Indians. The Senators r scored 11 runs in the eighth inning, h Babe Ruth hit his 42nd homer
of the season in the YankeesBrowns game, with one man on base. As a result of both Washington and New York victories, the Yankees remained two points behind the second place Senators. Yesterday's hero: Earl (Sparky) Adams, St. Louis Cardinals' third basrman, who made six hits, in-, eluding three triples, scored three! runs and drove in four more runs| as His team won a double header from Brooklyn.

The two deseters then left and a few days later they came west to Ch'cago on an Erie freight train. At Chicago they parted, Grow coming te the Stephens farm, west of Decatur, and Aiken returning to Camp Dix, N. J. Aiken was arrested about a week ago and confessed. Grow was traced through a letter he wrote hack to New York to a sister, giving an address of “Elmer Tuttle, Decatur, Ind., route 4.’’ This was the only clue the nfffee'l'. had and yesterday the two New York officials and Chief Melchi started searching all homes on route 4. Grow was finally located at the farm, which Is located tiear the Adams-Wells county line.
At first, Grow refused to admit that he was the man wanted, but 'ater confessed that he was a deserter from the army. On his way Into Decatur, Grow finally admitter h's part in the murder and stated he was ready to go back without extradition papers. When Grow first started to tell his gruesome story of the murder he was nervous and at times it appeared as if he was near a breakdown. He gained control later and sst in the office of the jail for three houre relating every detail of tile events since he deserted the army. Both Aiken and Grow will appear before the Montgomery county grand jury September 15 and their cases will then go to the New York supreme court for trial on first degree murder'charges. The New York officers indicated that the desertion charges would
not lie pressed until alter the inur-j der charges were disposed of. Grow is 5 feet 11 inches In | height, smooth shaven and has dark hair. When arrested yesterday he , had on overalls, but still had his army shoes. He had a revolver in his possession at the time of hisj arrest, which he said he borrowed at Tocsin to hunt with. In the two weeks that Grow was employed at the Stephens farm he made many acquaintances at Tocsin, Magley and through that neighborhood. — o FLIERS NEAR WORLD RECORD (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) “We intend to take lake no more chances such as stunting. We both feel fine," O’Brine and Jackson said in notes dropped to the ground crew. Already Lambert Field has taken on a carnival spirit.
