The unpredictable Indians, after apparently folding up. have come back with a brilliant drive that has lifted them from fifth to second place in the standings. They are still a long way behind the Yanks- nine and one half games but are not out of the race by any means. The only club that has shown anything like the class of the In dians for the past 10 days is the Chicago White Sox. Jimmy Dykes' men have won six out of their eight eastern games, taking three , series In succession. They won two out of three against each the Yun 1 keen and the Ited Sox. and then knocked the Washington Senators out of the first division by taking the first two tilts of their three game series. Johnny Allen, the big early season disappointment of the Indians who was secured from the Yankees last winter, pitched tive-hit ball as the Indians shut out the

* Today’s Sport Parade | (By Henry McLemore) ♦ ♦ Aboard S. S. Manhattan, at Sea, July 17 (UP) —Olympic track and' field committee officiate will decide' today wh-ther Harold Smallwood, 400 meter star of University ot' Southern California, will be permitted to compete in the gam?s at Berlin next month. The condition of Smallwood, who suffered a sudden attack of appendicitis just before sailing time Wed-, nesday, has improved so much it was believed likely he would be allowed to run. Hie temperature is back to nerma'. inflamation has disappeared and ice packs .have been discontinues!. The official entry list has to be filed today. The 334 athletes, after their first uriosity about “Life on a liner” had waned, settled down to their training and observing the orders of lympic onunittee chairman. Avery T. Brundage, who addressed the entire grotup with an emphatic list of" Jo's and don’ts.” Brundage forbade the team members from gambling after it was learned a half dozen poker and blackjack games flourished in several cabins yesterday. Athletes were ordered not to leave their quarters unless fully clothed after complaint of the ‘scanty attire” of the boys and girls walking about the decks and public rooms had been made by a .passenger. Strict orders were issued against ov resting. Fascinated by the fact that they can eat as much and whenever they want to. some of the team members have gorged them- - selves and are badly overweight. It also induces “mal de mer.” Just ordinary sea sickness. Smoking and drinking were left up to the athletes themselves, since the committee 'can’t go around wet nursing more than 300 persons for the eight-day voyage. Brundage complained to the Manhattan's purser and Herbert Waymbrauni, genera! passenger agent of the U. S. lines who is making the trip, of vitrolic anti-nazi pamphlets being distributed upon revelation by Ca'ifornia's discus hurler, “Slinger" Dunn, that several athletes had found the propaganda sheets in their cabins. i Coach iAI Ulbrickson of the University of Washington eight-oared shell was nursing two of his crew back to health after violent attacks of seasickness yesterday. They were stroke Don Hume, and bow oarsman Herb Norris, the two lightest memvers of the huskies. Ulbrickson had NOTICE! !

The Olympic chairman, who i waa a famous, athlete in hie day, said that he had a chance to endorse certain soap for 810,000 but that he i had refused for the same reason. REV. COUGHLIN PAGE gram brought the fifth convention ' session near recess after strenuous morning-long efforts among leaders to compose disputes disturbing Dr. Francis E. Townsend’s circle of advisers. At the start of the morning session leaders agreed upon a rule of procedure which barred from consideration any motions or resolutions to enrorse a 1936 presidential candidate. Their decision was viewed as an attempt to calm the political storm sweeping the convention. The session today was in calm contrast to yesterday's uproarious meeting when Father Charles E. Coughlin called President Roosevelt a "liar,” "betrayer," apd “double crosser.” Women were the center of atten-! tion. They paraded across the platform throughout the session, delivered their message and departed in a thunder of applause.

AMENDMENT TO BE VOTED ON Amendment Would Permit Negroes To Join State Militia Indianapolis, Jniy ~ <U ' P ;’ ~ The final step in a four yea Ukl' 'to bring before the electorate.th 'question of whether negroes shul serve in th- state militia will b« .taken next week. August (.. Mueller, secretary of state, announced today. i At that time, a proposed amendmet to the state constitution providing that "all able-bodied males be admitted to the state militia will be certified to the clerks of the various circuit courts. The question will be submitted to the electorate at the general election Nov. 3. It will not b? the ’only proposed constitutional amendment on the ballot. Muellei said. Admission of negroes into the state militia first was proposed in the state house of representatives by Rep. Henry J. Richardson. Jr., Indianapolis negro, in 1933. The 78th general assembly adopted a resolution agreeing to the i proposal and passed it on to the 1935 legislature for re-adoption, as provided in the state constitution. Although the proposal was readopted. the legislature failed to attach the clause, "is hereby submitted to the electors of this state for ratification or rejection at the general election to be held on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November, 1936." The special session of the legislature early this year attached the needed clause. Favorable action by the elector'ate on the proposed constitutional 'amendment would have to be supi planted by an increase in the federal allocation for national guard LOANS Your Own Signature NO ONE ELSE NEED SIGN Loan? up to S3OC quickly and confidentially arranged on plain note also cn furniture, auto, live stock, etc. Ltb ra) repayment terms.
