MAJOR TEAMS CHANGE SITES ■ National League Teams Go East; American 'l'eams West New York. June 15.- (U.R) — The second month of the 1936 major league basebail season passed today With three western clubs battl ing it out for the leadership of the National league and two eastern teams waging a dog tight for first 1 place in the American. No games were scheduled today. All teams were traveling. The weary, bedraggled National clubs of the east were returning home to try and salvage some hope for a pennant while playing host to their western cousins. Eastern Amer ican teams, cocky and confident after a long and successful home stand, headed west determined to defend their positions abroad. The St. Louis Cardinals, still three games and a half out in front of the enior circuit despite a sensational llgame winning streak by the Chicago Cubs, open ' tomorrow at Boston. The Cards are at their best on the road, boasting a .667 percentage against for-1 eign opponents this year. The Cubs have not done so well away from home, playing at a rate of only .338 so far this season, but their long home stand in which they won 16 out of 20, has put them right back in the pennant fight. Their first eastern opponents are the Philadelphia Phillies against whom they are favored to keep intact their current victory streak, the longest In the majors since they ran up 21 straight to win the National pennant last fall. The Pittsburgh Pirates, who are only a game to the rear of the Cubs, are pitted against the Brook lyn Dodgers tomorrow. Cincinnati's Reds and the New York Giants will fight it out for fourth place in their coming three game series. The New York Yankees go west holding a three game lead over tfie Boston Red Sox in the American league. The Yanks open against the fourth place Cleveland Indians while Boston engages the Chicago White Sox. in sixth place. The in-jury-ridden Detroit Tigers open their home defense against the Washington Senators and the St. Louis Browns face an opportunity to climb out of the cellar in their series with the Philadelphia Athletics. Frank Demaree's two home runs, one of them with a mate aboard, accounted for all of the Cubs' runs in their 3 to 1 decision over the Bees yesterday. The Cardinals held on to their margin of leadership by whipping the Philadelphia Phillies. 12 to 10. Five hit pitching by Hal Schumacher enabled the New York Giants to shut out the Pittsburgh Pirates. 8 to 0. Cincinnati's Reds whipped the Brooklyn Dodgers, 5 to 1. The Cleveland Indians drop|>ed to fourth place in the American league by taking an 8 to 6 beating from the Athletics. In the only other game played the Chicago; White Sox took their second straight from the Wa'feiiingtou Sen- ■ a tors. 6 to 4. Detroit at New York and St. i Louis at Boston were rained out. Yesterday’s hero: Frank Demaree of the Chicago Cubs whose two home runs accounted for all the tallies in his team's 11th consecutive victory. — o— FIRST OF VETS (CONTINUED FROM poured into prisons, hospitals, and out along country road*. Postmaster John iF. Inman of New Egypii, N. J„ claimed to have delivered the first bondsi to Ralph Walton, a 29th division vetera,n of the Argonne campaign. Inman personally handed Walton his bonds at 12:01 a. m. EDT. Registered packages given to the veterans contained bonus paymentis of SI.OO for every day served in this country and $1.25! for every day served overseas — j except for the first 60 days in each category, for which no pay- i ment is made. Q_ Yanks, Washington Trade Outfielders New York. June 15—(UP)—The N. Y. Yankeees and the Washington Senators swapped centerfielders today, Jake Powell going to the Yanks and Ben Chapman to the Senator*. It was a sunprise deal with no cash being involved, according to both managements. Chapman, who led the American League in stolen liases in 1932 and 1933, has but one theft to his credit this year. He is in a batting slump, hitting but .266, although his average for the six seasons he was with the Yanks was .306. Potvell, 27. Is a year younger than . Chapman, and has stolen 11 bases I this season with a batting percenI tage of .290. He will join the New • i York club in Cleveland today, and i Chapman will meet the Washington I j team in Detroit.

FISHING SEASON OPENS TONIGHT I i Indiana Lakes Expected To Attract Thousands Os Anglers Indianapolis, June 15—One minute after 12 o'clock tonight (Monday I. central .standard time, ecores of Hoosier anglers will wet their [ lines in Indiana lakes and stream*, j celebrating the opening ot the 1936 | fislilng aeaeon. There is every rea- , son for them to anticipate a sac- . ceseful season. Virgil M Simmons, commissioner of the department ot Conservation, reported today. Stream* throughout the state are generally in fine condition for fishing and observers have reported an unusual hatch of game fish in many sections. Warm weather during recent day* ha* resulted in scores of i summer cottages being opened in the lake region with the proepeet that the opening of the season this I year will see a record breaking number of anglers on the Job. Thousands of fishing licenses have Deen burned in anticipation of the opening of the seasono GOV. McNUTT 1 * ernment. In this connection I > wish to point out that we have al- . ready had complaint from some who do not understand the law , thoroughly over appropriations ( considered by the counties for their welfare fund. It must be understood by the taxpayers that . the county must appropriate and . budget sufficient money to care for the entire, or gross expenditure for public welfare in that county. If. for instance, the coun- • ey council appropriates $50,000 for - public welfare, it does not mean i that the taxpayers must pay that . amount. The county pay* only > twenty percent, or SIO,OOO and is ' > reimbursed for the other $40,000; | in monthly payments instead of, , semiannually as was provided
under the old law. “As a mutter of fact, a county which, for instances, was paying I sß per month for old age assist lance under th* old law was paying fifty peneiOt and was reimbursed |s4 by the state, while under the new haw the county can maintain the same number of pensioners and pay S2O instead of SB, without additional coat. This means ado. quake assistance for the aged and removal of thousands from the relief mils where they remained 1 liecause aged assistance payments I were not suffk'lent under the old i law "The assistance for dependent i* of equal or more importance than old age assistance, Some 15,000 children in our state have been inadequately taken care of through township or other .relief by receiving u basket or grocery order. Under this new law these children will be cared for ttlirough casli payments, the money, being baid to the mother or other responsible relative. I This assistance is to be paid for, 27 2-3 percent by the county; 39 percent by the state and 33 1-3 I percent by 4he federal govern ment. The schedule for these payments are: not to exceed S2O for one Child; $lB maximum for a second child land sl2 for every other child in the family. So a mother with n needy family of three children would receive not to exceed SSO per month, depending on her needs. Under the old set-up such a family received an .average of only sl9 per month. “With this assistance widowed mother*, or mothers left without the father of a. family who hare beejt compelled to go on the relief rolls will be able to rear her children adequately in their own homes. Another provision provides for rendering assistance to crippled children whose parents 1 are unable to secure for them surgical and medical treatment which they need. The children's bureau ot the federal government ' ha* ajloeaited to Indiana money to ! be used in developing the present ’ services which are rendered I through the James Whitcomb Riley hospital for children.'' j o — Trade In a Good Town — Decatur
