DETROIT OPENS YANKEE SERIES New York And Detroit Will Fight For American League Lead New York, June 16- (U.R) — Mickey Cochrane, bag-eared charge d'affaires of the Detroit Tigers, will bring his squad of athletes | into Yankee stadium today to find j cut what is keeping the Yanks from falling. The Tigers started eastward last week, intent on settling the hash of Col. Jake Ruppert’s rifle-1 men. They stopped off in Boston, and. much to their consteration. ■ tlte Yanks reeled off three straight , over the Browns and squeezed I Detroit out. of the American league lead. The week-end series will be regarded as crucial. I’.teh team boasts a sot of j Iv-avy-dirty stick men. Detroit, I with Gehringer, Rogell, Goslin! and Greenberg, can match New j York's Ruth. Gehrig. Rolfe and j Hoag. Pitching is another matter. | Each owns three good throwing I men, but the rest haven’t been , good for batting practice. It was i with surprise and satisfaction, i therefore, that Yankee Boss Joe' McCarthy observed dangerous Dan I Macfayden. who hadn't won al game since April 25. humble the St. Louis Brownies yesterday. 6 3.! Macfayd“n makes his fourth, pitcher. Detroit, with schoolboy Rowe, one of Cochrane’s three good I ones, right handing the Red Sox into submission, also won yesterday. defeating Boston 11-4. Cochrane's big bombers hammered | three Boston pitchers. The Cleveland Indians won their seeond straight over the Philadelphia Athletics. 12-6. pounding Mahaffey. Logger and Flohr for 17 hits. Washington swept the series with Chicago, Buddy Myer scoring on Travis’ single in the last half of the ninth to win, I 8-7. Zeke Bonura poled out liis 17th home run. New York’s Giants ran into Southpaw Touv Freitas in Cincinnati. after taking three straight, and lost the series finisher. 2-1. The Giants did not lose ground, I however, as the St. Louis Cards ■ wore losing to the Boston Braves. 10-4. Philadelphia also dropped the I third-place Chicago Cubs, winning I 4-3 in the 10th after Dolph Ca- ! milli poled a homer in the 9th' with Johnny Moore ahead of him. Ancient Tom Zachary, cast off ■ by- the Braves, made his first start for Brooklyn and the Dodgers beat the Pittsburgh Pirates. 6-4. o YESTERDAY’S HEROES Tom Zachary.

BOTH HOUSES RUSH ACTION ON MEASURES (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) effective in American history. It spent more money than any preceding congress with the possible exception of the world war period. It charted America definitely along a new course, hitherto untried in the life of this republic. The congress just drawing to a close has been a momentous one. It met first on March 9. 1933, with the nation looking toward Washington for support as it tottered on the brink of an economic precipice. Banks were closed. Business was stagnant. Paralysis threatened major industries. Unrest roamed the land. Congress met in a spirit seldom felt in Washington. President Roosevelt’s inauguration speech had revived hope. Congress swung into action, passed emergency banking legislation, established the NRA, the PWA. the AAA, the CUC, gave the country beer and started with a wave of enthusiasm toward an economic come-back. The special session of the 73rd congress lasted three months. The regular session met Jan. 3. During the interim the NRA, the AAA, and other alphabetical units swung into the war on depression. The Blue Eagle, codes of fair practice, industrial rehabilitation and re-shaping — all marched along in the “new deal”

| parade. Congress came back, this time to legislate for permanence instead of for an emergency. o STEEL WORKERS VOTE TO DELAY GENERAL STRIKE (CONTINUED FROM FACIE ONE) President would appoint a board of three members which would have four duties and powers. It would: 1. Receive complaints and investigate and adjust violations of [ the labor provisions of the code. 2. Mediate and conciliate any dispute arising between employers and employes under the code. 2. Offer its service as arbitrator in any dispute between employers and employes "provided such dispute is voluntarily submitted for arbitration by both parties.” 4. Hear and determine any matter of discrimination against or discharge of any employe in violation of section 7-A of the national industrial recovery act. The board also would be clothed with authority to order elections by the men and to supervise such elections. Finally, it would have the highest authority in determining issues of hours, wages and conditions of employment, when such matters cannot be determined through collective bargaining. o Ge» the Habit — Trede at Horn*

DETROIT PLANS | TEST FOR NEW STREET LIGHTS Sodium Vapor Lamps Are Seen As Medium For Lighting Highways Detroit, —(VP) Whether Detroit should be the medium for the j test of a new form of highway light- j ing will be decided here shortly, the > Ptfbllc Lighting Commission has f announxd. SoJiumA-apor lamps, a comparatively n«w development, may be’ used for the test, both for street ani safety zone illumination. These’ lamps never have been used here, but have been tried sue. ess-, fully in the East and in Europe. ’’l have no doubt but that these sodium vapor lamps are the lamps of the future as far as lighting of highways and outlying s<>ctions. are ' concerned. ’’ Schrenk .said. "They are non j ehromatic and make for greater visfcility hy contrast—j light colors 'become lighter and . dark ones become darker. "These lamps could be used, about everywhere except in cases; where it is necessary to distinguish colors. They would not be sue-, essful in a commercial area where show windows have articles of var-: ious colors, but they could be used , in almost any other place.” The new lamps still are too ex pensive for widespread use. because their manufacturers have not begun making them on a production basis , Schrenk said. According to Schrenk, the new lamp now costs four times as mu' h as an in'andescent lamp, lasts for a shorter period, but consumes only about half the electric power. It produces a golden-orange glow with comparatively little glare. Schrenk said. — —. o Announce Leaders For All-Star Team New York, June 16 - (IIP) —Lea*iers in the nation-wide baseball poll to pick teams for the all-star game ■ July 10 between players of each league have been announced with . 20.000 votes counted.
