MIES TEAM TO MEET CELINA HERE SUNDAY .Strong Ohio Nine To Battle Local Semi-Pros Here Sunday Decatur semi-pro baseball takes on a prufesoional slant Sunday after Boon, when the strong Celina team vie-:ts here for the first meet- i ing of the two teams his season. 1 Celina has eeveral players who were formerly in the Southern and Texas leagues, and it is reputed ■ that every player on the team is , under direct contract. Long rivalry between these two nines assures Decatur sane of a tough game. They met laet year, Celina winning the tilt 4-3 in a gruelling 11-inning affair. Decatur will use the same lineup that started last week against Garrett That game was rained out in the fourth inning, with Garrett leading 2-1. The acquisition of Bob Dro, Berne star, strengthened the Decatur outfield considerably. Dro han been batting better than 300 a'l year. He spent two months of the spring season with International Harvester of Fort Wayne before coming here. Molly Miee, manager of the locals stated yesterday that he expects the toughest game of the season against Celina. So far this year, the Decatur team has not been defeated. ’ Consistently heavy hitting by every

The locals have shown a I marked improvement over last year 'and hope to continue their winn.ng , streak far into the playing season. 1 Although the gate has been light, i fans have shown much interest, and I it is only with their support that • the team can perform at its bestThe usual admission will be charged, 35 cents for adults, 10 cents for children. o Forceful Pictures To Be Shown Here Dealing with a subject that to- , day is commanding the attention of newspapers and magazines the : nation over, "Damaged Goods,” I starting Sunday at the Madison ' theater, presents with dignity and force the dreadful results of the “Red Plague.” The picture is based on the famous French play by Eugene Brieux and was adapted for the screen by Upton Sinclair, well-known novelist. Recommended by boards of health, the clergy, and famous editors, "Damaged Goods” dramatically recounts the story of a young man who a fortnight before his wedding falls victim to the scourge which claims every tenth American adult. The picture has been given , careful and intelligent production by one of Hollywood’s leading companies and includes in the cast Phyllis Barry. Douglas Walton, Esther Dale and Pedro de Cordoba. —adv.

MAJOR LEAGUE TEAMS RESUME J REGULAR CARD 1 Regular Schedule Resumi ed After All-Star Game Recess New York. July 9. <U.R> Firing! resumed hi the regular major lea* j ' ru<‘ pennant races today after a three-day recess for the playing of the fifth annual all-star game be- ' tween both circuits. Echoes of the affair, which the American leaguers won handily j for their fourth triumph, still were being heard as the Chicago Cubs and New York Yankees resumed battling to protect their respective I league leads. It seemed likely that next year's' selection of the all-star teams’ personnel would go back to the fans, who previous to this year had participated I na nationwide election. Latest suggestion was to let the fans ballot on 16 members of each team, and leave seven selections to the all star managers in order to plug up any weaknesses overlooked by the voters, j There also was a possibility that

naming of the manager might bo left to the fans instead of the job automatically falling to the management of the pennant winners. While the exploits of the New York Yankees in Wednesday’s game were still being praised, many baseball writers, and at least one American league manager, expressed the opinion that Joe (Ducky Wucky) Medwick of the St. Louis CaruTnals was the outstanding player on the field at Washington. Joe slammed out four consecutive hits —two doubles and two singles—in five times at bat to set a record for all-star competition. Several cities were understood to toe bidding for the 1938 allstar encounter, but it was believed that Cincinnati had the inside track. Chicago, with a two-game lead in the National league, resumed play against the Pittsburgh Pirates. Setting the pace in the American with a game lead over the Detroit Tigers, the Yankees are pitted against the Washington Senators, who have succumbed in four of their seven contests with the Yanks. o MARION TEASEL TO CLEAR CREEK Local Athlete To Coach At Huntington County School Marion Feasel, Decatur high school graduate and star athlets hae signed a contract to coach and teach at the Clear Creek school in Hunting! in county, according to word received here.

JAPS, UHlNtit I SIGNED TRUCE Authorities, However, Fear Truce Only Temporary Peiping. China. July 9.—(U.R> Chinese and Japanese troops faced each other across the Yingtlng river south of Peiping today under a truce which threatened at anytime to end in new fighting They had fought sporadically un'til 11:30 o'clock last night. Then firing broke out early this morning and continued until 3a. m. It was ' resumed at 5 and ended soon afterward when it was agreed final- ' ly that troops on «ach side should withdraw to agreed positions on ' either side of the river. I Chinese troops, sullen and ready to resume at first opportunity a 1 hopeless fight against the Japanese war machine, entrenched them- ' selves on the right or southern bank of the river; Japanese troops on the left or north bank near the Peiping-Hankow railroad. 1 As reported here, the agreement indicated that the Chinese had made some concession to the Japanese demands for withdrawal, , and had put back their lines a little, while the Japanese lines re-

mained almost where they were during the two days of fighting. I Japanese army authorities issued their first complete casualty list, admitting three officers and seven soldiers killed and 20 wounded. Chinese casualties were estimated at 190 killed or wounded. I In addition there were unconfirmed reports that many civilian casualties were caused by Japanese bombardment of Wanpinghsien, on the Yingting river where the fighting centered.
