BOSTON CAUSES MUCH TROUBLE New York, June 22—<U.R) — Boston's Braves and ilie Cleveland Indians, fourth place teams in the National and American Leagues respectively, have little prospect of winning places in the 1931 world series, but they are proving serious obstacles to the championship favorites. The Bravos have played an important part in preventing the St. Louis Cardinals front piling up a big lead in the National League, with six victories in ten starts against th|p defending champions. After winning a doubleheader front the Cards Saturday, the Braves won the first game of a double bill Sunday, 6 to 2, before they were defeated, 1 to 0. Frankhousje and Ed Brandt held the Cards to five hits in the first game while their mates pounded Derringer and Stout for nine safe- 1 ties. The second game was a pitching duel between Socks Seibold and Burleigh Orintes, with the Cards ace winning the decision on j Pepper Martin's sixth inning home run. Cleveland weakened Washington's hopes of overtaking the Phili ndelphia Athletics by defeating the American League runners-up. 3 to 1. Alvin Crowder and Wes Ferrell broke the 1 to 1 tie with a homer in the seventh -and his teammate Morgan added a homer | in the eighth. The Senators’ defeat enat'ed Philadelphia to increase its lead to! four full games by beating th- [ Chicago White Sox. G to 5. George j Earnshaw was in trouble through-1 out the game, but Lefty Grove! came to his rescue in the ninth when Chicago had the winning! runs on base and retired the final two batsmen. New York's third place Yankees . dropped a doubleheader to St. j Louis, 9 to 7 and 8 *o 2. The Yanks | got away to a fast start in the first ■ came, scoring seven runs on five hits, including homers l>v Ruth.| Gehrig and Lazzeri, but Stewart! settled- down and pitched shutout j ball for the final four innings, j while his mates pounded Pipgras, Sherid and Wells for 11 hits. Both teams used rookie pitchers in the second game and Herbert of the Browns coasted to victory after his mates got to Vernon Gomez for six runs in the first three innings. Earl Webb’s homer with a mate on base and the score tied at five all gave Boston a 7 to 5 triumph over Detroit in the otfier American league contest. . Contenders for the National league lead found rough going, with New' York dropping an 11i lining decision to Pittsburgh. 5 ft> 4. and the Chicago Cubs losing to Brooklyn, 7 to G.

This will make the com- 1 pany stronger than ever and enable 1 them to continue the splendid ser- 1 vice so long rendered. The rate is still very low and the Increase at 1 this time is proof of the excellent < management.

He disappeared from that city fcnd later went to LaPorte. In the meantime Sheriff Johnson took up the trail when he assumed office in this county and on several occasions Magley was near arrest, only to disappear. Saturday afternoon Sheriff Johnson received a telephone call front Hart, Michigan from authorities there that a man by the name of Ed Miller, having the description of Magley had been located at Shelby, Michigan, near Ha’t, where he was living with the wife of a man convicted in Michigan on dry law violations. Sheriff Johnson ordered the man’s arrest and immediately left with deputy Baxter for the Michigan town. The two local officers arrived at Hart, the county seat at 3:15 o’clock Sunday morning pnd in the meantime Magley had been placed in jail. When Sheriff Johnson and Baxter identified Miller as Magley, the latter surrendered and agreed to return to Decatur without -extradition papers. Magley told Sheriff Jonson that he had been living in Michigan for several months. He was operating a small fruit farm- near Shelby. Magley was convicted of rape in Adams circuit court March 17, 1930 and was sentenced by Judge J. C.

He said he harf not seen his wife and their children since he n J escaped from the local jail, but I that he had been living with an- | other woman in Michigan.

TURKISH WOMEN SEEKING EQUAL ' RIGHTS FOR SEX Secure President Hemal's Aid By Joining His Party i By Herbert Allen, ) T'P Staff Correspondent i Angora. Turney, June 22.—<U.R>— *j Turkish women, deprived of the j right to vote in the recent national • t election, because of having voted with the now defunct liberal • party, in the municipal elections, " I have decided to get on the band wagon and show their loyalty to ' the People’s party of which Presi- ' dent Kemal is the chief. • The Union of Turkish Women, ■ recognizing that generally women l are still ignorant on political quegj tions, lias decided to conduct a 'illation wide campaign of education ■ and propaganda. Ankara, Eskiche--1! hir and Smyrna are to be the prin- • j cipal centers of their activity, j There will be an increased effort to arouse the women to insist up- ’; on equal rights with men in all j lines of work, coupled with propa | ganda in favor of the People's party. '! Women are largely employed in the government service, occupying positions as post mistresses, stenographers, typists and bookkeepers. They also are employed in the for eign service and translators of • ! foreign language publications and | letters. There is one barber shop ! > n Ankara with lady barbers, and . jone Turkish woman has attained a license as a chauffeur in ’Stamhoul. . In many of the banks and particularly those of Ankara a number of , women are employed and the new i Ismet Pacha high school has wotn- , en teachers of English and French. I The women are particularly de- . termined to attain equality with the • men in becoming members of the Turkish National assembly. It is this right, together with the i right to vote in nationil elections, j which was promised them a year ; ago. There is little doubt that if i they show themselves loyal to the : party that gave them their liberty, , they will accomplish their desire in > this respect, as President Kemal is i known to be most favorable to women's rights i In respect to equal rights' with the men in the government service they are still unable to secure api polntment as judges although the Turkish bar has many women members. There is also a special government law that forbids both tnen and '"women to marry foreigners and remain in the service. — o FOR SALE —3 day old male calf.
