Giants In World Series (Editor's note: This is the first of a series on the Washington Senators and New York Giants, world series rivals). New York. Sept. 26. (U.R) —Advance apeculatipn on world series play is risky business. One has, only to review the series of the past to know that in a best four-ont-of seven conflicts the only thing usual is the unusual. On paper, th- Senators must be I given the edge, for the four infield I positions, in only one, at first base, may » Giant be clearly rated above his rival. Memphis Bill Terry, player-manager of the Giants, for a number of reasons, seems to. stand above Joe Kuhel of the Sen ators. Second base seems to be a standoff between Hughie Critz of the Giants, and Charles "Buddy" Myer of the Senators. But Washington's player manager, Joe Cronin, veteran shortstop, has a big margin over' Jack "Blondy” Ryan, and Ossie Bluege of the Senators, also promises more than Travis Jackson at I third. Both Terry and Kuhel are lefthanded. At bat they are but a few percentage points apart. Terry is the veteran, having played with, the Giants in their last world series. with the Senators. Kuhel is the on-coming youngster. Series • victory, probably, means more to I Terry’ than his youthful rival, fori “Memphis Bill" needs only a series ‘ triumph to establish him among baseball's all-time greats. While Buddy Myer can handicap himself 60 percentage points in | batting and come out nearly even with Hughie Critzz. the veteran New York second baseman is a money player, and that's what the series needs, started brilliantly this season, but both finished strongly. Just as managerial inspiration will aid Terry at first, so will the Washington leadership, intrusted

(SOPHOMORES IN IRISH LINEUP Three Sophomores Banked On To Make Notre Dame Team Tough (Editor's Note: Following is the first of a series on the outstanding midwest football teams). (South Bend, Sept. 26— (U.R) — Three sophomores hold the answer ' to Notre Dame's football fate this season. They are Tony Mazziotti. Italian quarterback from White Plains. N. Y„ Andy Pilney. Bohemian halfback from Chicago, and Doji Elser, giant German fullback I from Gary, Ind. If M izziotti. Pilney and Elser I perform up to expectations, Notre j Dame will he great — possibly I great enough to win back the i national football championship, surrendered to Southern Califor-• nia two years ago. If any, or all, of the three. I youngsters prove disappointments, [ Notre Dame still will be good—j possibly as strong as last year I and still a big factor in the battle j for the national title. Mazziotti. a bigger edition of; | Frank Carideo. seems to hold the I key to Notre Dame's fortune. I 1 Quarterback, where three men* alternated last year, was Notre Dame's weak link. Mazziotti has that cocky air of confidence exemplified by Stuhldreher and Carideo, and which gave Notre Dame's teams, under Knute Rockne. savoir-faire on the football field. The uncertainty of who's going to run the Notre Dame team has been dispelled by Coach Heartly Anderson after * watching Mazziotti under fire in the first scrimmage. "Mazziotti's the quarterback of this team now. for the first game ■ and for all season,” said Ander- , son. "He's going to run this team , without any doubt." Anderson expects two import- , ant things from Mazziotti —blocking and field generalship Weighing 190 pounds, Mazziotti gives promise of being a blocker of the ; ' Marty Brill type. He directed his plays like a veteran in Saturday’s game, won by the varsity, 33-0. "Our quarterbacks were too light last year." said Anderson. I ■ They couldn't block out those big ; tackles and ends like -Pittsburgh ' and Southern California threw at us.” The flying triangle of Mazziotti. 1 Elser and Pilney. operating be--1 hind a veteran line averaging 192 I pounds —all big. tough, smart for-| wards —promises to create havoc ; ; in the ranks of the opposition. o Huntington Beats Bluffton Tigers Bluffton. Sept. 26—(TP)— The Bluffton Tigers suffered their third defeat of the season Monday night, i losing to th Huntington Vikings 13 to 0. Huntington scored in each ; of the first and third quarters.

The anthracite coal cotie is exi pected to be submitted shortly. It has been delayed by disagreements among operators over administrative provisions, but has caused little concern at NRA headquarters. ' The industry is thoroughly union- ! ized. Hour and wage provisions ! of existing contracts generally are satisfactory to the NRA. Western Kentucky bituminous operators today submitted a wage schedule of $4 for inside workers and J 3 for outside. This represents a considerable increase above their original proposal and NRA officials had no doubt that it would be ac-1 ! cepted.

■INVITE PUPILS ' TO HUNTINGTON School Children Invited To Field Day Friday, September 29 Bloomington. <lnd, Sept. 2« — j (Special) -School children of Ad-1 ams county have been Invited to take part in the historic field day , program to be held Friday Septem-« her 29 at Huntington. The program is being sponsored by the Indiana City and Town Superintendents association and the Indiana university extension division. It Is one of a series to be conducted this fall for the purpose of teaching school children and other interested Moosiers the importance of their state’s historical background. Ross F. Lo< krldge, prominent Ind ana historian and repr- sentntive of the university, will be in charge of the recitals. Next Friday's program will get underway at 10 a. m. at the Miami I Inn. about three miles west of Huntington. There at the junction of the Little River with the Wabash, known In early history as Forks of the River, two historic recitals will be given by Mr. Lockridge, covering the historic treaties and Jvattks that occurred on that site and the greater part of the history of the Miami Indian nation It was in sight of this place that the first great vocational training s. hool in the west was established by the great | Chief Little Turtle, when he brought a scientific Quaker farmer from Philadelphia to teach his young Indian Braves how to raise potatoes on this fertik* ground. Mr. Lockridge explained. The noon hour will be spent at this site. At 1:30 p. m the afternoon recital program will begin in the b d of the Old Canal. Mr. Lockridge will recite there the story of the building and operation of this pioneer mode of transportation, the once famous Indiana cAppian Way.

The exact words of famous characters in Indiana history will be used for the various recitals. Superintendent J. M. Scudder of Huntington is serving as regional chairman for the Sept. 29 program. SOME REPORTS INDICATE TOLL IN THOUSANDS (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) i come later. The 'hurricane flooded the Panuco and Tamesi rivers that joined at Tampico. Floods and fragmentary reports of deaths were reported from all through the area. On the coast big steamships were reported blown out to sea or I shore. Inland, many trains were, missing in flood areas. Today it was hoped the area ■ would be reopened to communica-; i tion and relief work could really begin. Minister of Interior Eduardo* Vasconcelas hoped to leave today for Tampico with a staff of assistants to organize relief work. The government was prepared to send troops, food, medical supplies and physicians and nurses wherever i they were needed. But the problem was a difficult ' one. For Vasconcelas to reach Tampico it was necessary to take i a plane to Brownsville, Tex., on the American border, and then change to an amphibian for the ! flight down the coast, 250 miles < south. ' The messages from the steam-
ship Keil were relayed byway of Vera Cruz and Villa Hermosa, and there was no other source of information. Flying In the hurricane area had been Impossible until today. The storm swept In from the Gulf of Mexico at noon Sunday. It raged across Tampico at well over 100 miles an hour, ripping to pieces the wooden houses of (he poor and razing or damaging other homes and buildings, then swept Inland up 'he Panuco and Tamesi rivers into San Luis Potosi and other states. The Mexican Telephone Co., established momentary communication with Tampico today and was informed that “many bodies of persons drowned, crushed or burned during the storm arc floating In the streets.” Communication authorities tried to reach ships with radio in the Tampico area for reports and appealed to the German consul there to urge captains of the German vessels Teodosia and Kiel to contact Mexico City. Newspaper headlines wore reporting "Thousands dead: Tampico destroyed.” The public was apprehensive because of the lack of complete reports. o Organizing New Bank At Huntington A new bank is being organized in Huntington, following the dosing of the Citizens and First state hanks.
