Athletics Regain Top Berth in A. L. Race Foxx, Grove, Simmons and Cochrane Combine to Give A’s Win-Over White Sox and Pass Idle Yanks for Lead BY I.EO H. PETERSEN United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, May 13.—Philadelphia’s Athletics, whose early season slump caused fear that the world champions of 1929 and 1930 finally had cracked, were back in their familiar position of first place in the American League today. Although their margin over the second place New York Yankees is only a few percentage points, it is enough to indicate that the Athletics are far from through as championship contenders. It has been a slow and gradual rise for Connie Mack's men ever since hey looked so helpless In dropping three contests of their four-game cries with the Washington Senators to start off the 1931 campaign. The reason for the Athletics’ poor showing then was because the “big five”

rr.sn’t clicking. Lefty Grove and George Eamihaw were slow to round into form, Jimmy Foxx was injured, Mickey Cochrane had lost his pepper behind the plate and was falling down in his hitting and A1 Simmons was Just another batter. But Grove Foxx, Simmons and Cochrane combined Tuesday to elevate Philadelphia to the top by trimming Chicago, 5 to 2. Grove allowed but four hits, Simmons hit his fifth home run of the year, Foxx got three singles, driving in two runs, and Cochrane was his old self behind the plate. Only one other American League game was played, the Detroit Tige.ru besting the Boston Red Sox, ?v to 0. Vic Sorrell allowed nine scattered hits while the Tigers received but six hits off Russell and Lisenbee. They combined three of these to score the only runs of the game in the fourth inning. Owen ana Stone singled and Hayworth’s double brought them home. In the only contests in the senior circuit, the Boston Braves and Cincinnati Reds broke even in a double-header, the Braves winning the first 4 to 2, and the Reds the second, 3 to 2. Morstone Not Derby Starter & 2 'X]jilted Press NEvv' YORK, May 13.—Morstone, whose debut on New York tracks this spring stamped him as one of the leading 3-year-olds in the country, has been withdrawn from the Kentucky Derby. Owner Ben Block announced late Tuesday he had withdrawn Morstone upon the advice of Trainer Clarence Buxton. Until Morstone’s poor showing at Jamaica Monday, he was regarded as a sure starter in the annual Kentucky turf classic and a strong “dark horse’’ contender.

Tilden Again Trips Richards By Times Special BOSTON, May 13.—8i1l Tilden’s terrific cress-court, placements, most of which landed just an inch inside the lines, gave him his second straight victory in their pro series over his old net rival, Vincent Richards, before 9,000 fans here Tuesday. Scores were 6-3, 3-6, 6-1, 1-6, and 6-3. Richards’ downfall was traced to his failure to control his first service ball and his inability to play his favorite net game. Tilden’s points were scored on his famous cannonball service or brilliant backhand smashes to the back court.

CONGRESS GOES GLOBE TROTTER FOR FUN. STUDY Nation’s Lawmakers Sail Seven Seas Awaiting ’32 Session. By Scripps-Botcard S’eioepaper Alliance WASHINGTON, May 13.—A famous navy program may be paraphrased as “join congress and see the world!” following a summer of almost unprecedented globe-trotting by members of both houses. Upward of fifty representatives and senators are scattering out over the Seven Seas, skirting their country’s shores by way of Panama, or joining in committee treks across the continent en route to Indian reservations, national parks and federal construction projects. Most of those who go by beat are taking advantage of the congressional privilege of traveling with their families aboard transports at $1.50 a day per person. Others are on special committee assignments. Still others axe paying their way. Some will go to Euiope, some to Honolulu and Manila, some to China, some to Alaska. When the ambulatory seventysecond returns to take up its lawmaking duties in December, many believe the first-hand contacts it has made with other peoples will give its deliberations a less provincial tone. Silver, Radio Stndy Topics Senator Glenn (Rep., 111.), for instance, is in Europe to study unemployment insurance. Senator Harry Hawes (Dem., Mo.) is in Manila to study the Philippines independence cause. Senator Key Pittman (Dem., Nev.) and Senator Oddie (Rep., Nevada) are China-bound to study silver, while Senators Swanson (Dem., Va.) and Vandenberg (Rep., Mich.) are going to Europe on the same mission. Senator Henrik Shipstead, the lone Farmer-Laborite, also may go to Europe to look into the silver situation. Senator Dwight Morrow (Rep., N. J.) just has returned from a special diplomatic errand on naval accord for President Hoover. Senator Brookhart (Rep., la.) went to Panama, Senator King (Rep., Utah) to the Caribbean and Senator Robinson (Rep., Ind.) took his family to Manila. Senator Dill (Dem., Wash.), has sailed for Geneva and other European centers to study radio problems. Senator Patterson (Rep., Mo.), is on his way to the Philippines for pleasure and study. House to Alaska Alaska will be the mecca for a big group of house members. An appropriations subcommittee will start in June for the far west, taking in Alaska on its return from inspections of Boulder dam, parks, forests and Indiana reservations. A senate Indian affairs subcommittee, including Senators Wheeler, Frazier and Thomas, is conducting hearings now in the southwest. Another special senate committee will “see America” in studying wild life problems. This includes Walcott (Rep., Conn.), Hawes and Pittman. At least forty members of the lower house will take special trips on transports to Manila, to the Pacific coast via the Panama canal, to Europe, Alaska and way stations. Two Face Eleven Charges By Times Special COLUMBUS, Ind., May 13. James Britton, 55, and Stella May Simmer,, 17, face eleven charges of violating the dry laws.

TALK OF NEWSPAPER MAN IS EXPLAINED Palace to Give Complete Talking Version of “The Front Page,” Which Was a Stage Favorite When Produced. HOWARD HUGHES, the young producer who created a sensation with his $4,000,000 air spectacle, ‘’Hell's Angeles,” has followed up with another sensational piece of movie-making. Tlie story of its production reveals “Go-the-Limit” Hughes’ methods of getting results. This time it is a translation into celluloid of the famous Ben HechtCharles MacArthur newspaper pl3y, “The Front Page,” which Manager Flex has booked for the Palace, starting Saturday. Lewis Milestone, the young Russian director.'who made “All Quiet on the “Western Front,” the prize motion picture of 1930, directed “The Front

Page.” anti many critics are already predicting this will be the prizewinning movie of 1931. “The Front Page” is a sizzling show-down and boisterous melodrama of newspaper life. Asa stage play it was the outstanding j hit on Broadway two seasons ago. For it Howard Hughes paid plenty. Toping the roster is Adolphe Men- j jou in the role of the hard-driving. ; quick - thinking and fast - talking i managing editor. It is the first time that Mejou in his long and distinguished screen career has stepped out of the drawing room into the smell and hustle of speak-easies and pressrooms. Next comes Pat O’Brien, as “Hildy 1 Johnson,” the happy-go-lucky and scoop-getting police reporter. O’Brien was brought direct from Broadway to Hollywood by Howard Hughes to impersonate “Hildy Johnson” on the screen, blasting the hopes of more than a score of estab-' lished movie stars who begged for the assignment. This is O'Brien’s first appearance in pictures, although he had a brilliant career on the New York stage. Charming Mary Brian is the leading lady, and surrounded as she is by a bevy of hard-boiled scribes, this little actress too is screened in anew light. Edward Everett Horton crashes through in “The Front Page” with an outstanding comedy characterization, playing the part of “Bensinger” the “sanitary” reporter. He is an evening’s entertainment in himself in this, the finest portrayal
