FRISCH GIVES IN TO DEANS Strike of St. Louis Card llurlers Announced Settled N< w York. June 2—(U.R) Latest u ports of the < lush between over<>r Frankie Frisch and his ■c oolie help" Indicate that Frankie ,iw the light, despite Pittsburgh's stoke, and will not call any troops away from Toledo to settle the St. Louis Cardinals’ pitching I strike. In lead. Frankie apparently sent | a couple thousand iron men rolling toward the wallet of one' of the agitators, young Paul Bean, thereby placating Paul's older brother. Jerome Hanner, known to the trade as ' Dizzy.” Dil i r the 1934 training season report- of low salaries paid St. ■ Lottia playt rs circulated about the dressing rooms of other clubs. The impression developed, as ini-pre-s lons wil l . that the Cards were imparitivelv the cheapest tunch of hired hands in the maji r So some baseball 'wit called them "coolie heln.” Dizzy and Paul Dem. a couple of ambitious right-handed brothers from Arkansas did not object to, the appellation at fir t. Dizzy was receiving the modest ■ tinendittm of $7,500 and Paul the even more modest sunt of s2.<s'O. The Dean brothers were getting their pork and beans and all was well until the Card.; started going places. One morning the brothers Dean arose and read in the papers that th® Cards were leading the league ond that some baseball writer figured out how the Deans were largely responsible for the advance. The writing feller even j pointed out that Rookie Paul from ' the Columbus club had the best record of any flinger in the National circuit with five straight victories and that Jerome Hanner had won six and lost two. To-' getter, they figured on their abacus, they had won 11. Tie and his brother went on a strike. The brothers started emaning and moaning about the miseries which suddenly afflicted their pitching arms. Frankie branded their agonies, as "hanky-panky" and told Dizzy to get in there and pitch again t the Pirates or take off his uni-; form. Dizzy immediately donned his civics. Wild Lili H.illahan substituted and the Cards lost to; the Pirates. 4 to 3. No one accused Wdd Rill of sympathizing with I the Deans. bu‘ it was a timely; locs. It panmk< d the adamant I Frankie who saw the Cards' topi Iyad shrink to a mere half game' over the deadlocked Giants and ; Cubs. Shortly afterward. Frankie an-1 nonneed that the strike had been' settled and that Dizzy would riteh today against the Pirates., Ho ninde no. mention of the terms, I blit Patil probably will read That i between the lines on his check. o— YESTERDAY’S HEROES Marty McManus.

Placement in the first I I three races will be based on time ‘ | trial speeds. ; Fort Wayne is the last of the five ■ | tra ks to be opened thus season. Ex‘cellent crowds have attended all '[of the other programs, including ' the one at Winchester. i Mr. Funk announced also that a ' number of drivers who competed in the 500 mile race at ndianapolis [ last Wednesday, would appear on the program here, but inasmuch as [their entry blanks had not been re- , ceived he would not announce their i presence, until he was certain.

Ward Calland. field manager '[of the Central Sugar Co., stated today that the beet crop is in better condition than it was last year. He estimated that by evenI ing today there would be approxi- ' mutely 1.000 acres or one-twelfth I of the beet crop in this territory ‘ blocked and thinned. “Only a very few farmers." Mr. Calland said, "are replanting their i beet seed. Rain in the next week or so would mean a bumper crop.” Supply Sufficient “The waler supply in the city is j eery satisfactory. There has been I no occasion for curtailment and no immediate danger of requesting patrons to decrease use of water beyond the exercising of usual care.” said Charles Brodbeck, superintendent, of the city water department. The new well being drilled on I the city lot in the south part of I town will carry the city through l the severest of droughts if it is a reasonably good well. The drf 1 .- I ling which is going on 24 hours i a day will be completed soon and the well probably will be ready for use in about three weeks. The municipal swimming pool which is now being filled will require about 350,000 gallons of city water. The water is being pumped in slowly to prevent too great a drain upon the city’s resources . in case of a fire. It will probably be filled by tomorrow afternoon. Mr. Brodbeck said today that] there is no danger of the city i running out of water because of a fire. A reserve strong enough | to meet almost any demand is 1 ' being kept on hand. —o .

Some experts considered the possibility of a real food shortage while others believed the drought has served so far only | to eliminate the surplus wheat I hanging over the market. Scattered rains fell in sections of the sunbaked mid west last nighs and more showers were predicted for tonight and tomorrow. Forecasters believed the extreme temperatures recorded yesterdav w’ould not be duplicated today. 1 Relief For Indiana Indianapolis, June 2 — (U.R) —• Overcast skies bearing a threat of rain today promised to break one of the most severe heat waves .in the history of Indiana.

I STOCK CONTROL BILL IS PASSED (CONTINUED FROM PAOE ONE) ion bill, the securities ait, was passed last year and certain modilieatlons of it are included in the pew law. Hope of the framers of the net is that it will end for all time such orgies of speculation which led to the debacle of 1929 No other measure initiated under President Roorevelt's regime has been the subject of so much controversy. The act has been revised again and again to meet objections. The central tight occurred over administration of the act and the i••quirements for trading on margin. a practice seen by supporters of the measure as a main cause of exceseive speculation In final form the bill sets up a new federal agency, a commission of five members to handle the new law Margins are required to be at least 45 per cent cash but may be changed at the order of the commission. Brokers loans are to he controlled by the federal reserve board The margin requirement Is expected to end trading on a shoe-

string At the tame time the small trader is piotected against I nad other practices which In the past had increased his chance of loss Holders of more than 10 per cent of stock in any corporation , are required to report regularly changes in their holdings. Damage suits may be brought against officials whose etock manipulations can be shown to have resulted In loss to other holders. in this connection liability on issuers of new stocks and bonds is relaxed somewhat through amendments to the securities act.
