Three Teams Are in Battle for East Side Title: Playoff Today. BY WILLIAM H. M'GAL'GHEY Tin.. Stall Writer With the baseball finals scheduled to be played this week, the lid is about to blow off the dope kettle in the red hot race for the championship. Because three teams seek to represent the east side in the championship round, the semi-finals In the senior boys’ league were set back from Monday until Thursday to Rive the teams a chance to fight it out. A three-way tie between Ellenberger. Bright wood and Willard has the east side league all tangled up. By this evening the winner will be decided and that team will meet Rhodius. west side champ, at 9 tomorrow at Willard. The other game m the semifinals tomorrow will be between Finch and Fall Creek. Due to a •‘regrettable" error made by Bob Nipper, playground baseball czar, last Friday, this department carried Golden Hill as the winner of the north side league. Fall Creek emerged victorious in the north side race. The regrettable part came to Bob s attention early Saturday morning. At 5:30 his telephone began to ring and angry' voices wanted to know "just who is the winner out here in our league?" His sleep disturbed by the frequent telephone calls. Bob came down to the recreation department for a little rest. Parked on the floor before the recreation department offices was a delegation of Fall Creek boys who had read the story he gave The Times. “Boy, I'll never make a mistake like that again.” the recreation department official sighed after appeasing several score of young baseball fans. To promote a better spirit between the competing teams in the championship games, the recreation department will award an engraved "Sportsmanship" medal to the player who shows the best sportsmanship attitude in the championship series. Last year. Joe Branon. crack third baseman of the championship Greer team, won the medal. Rhodius park swimming team took high scoring honors in the American Red Cross-city recreation department meet in Garfield park last week, amassing a total of 67 points Garfield crashed through with 37 points to gamer second place, while the Riviera Club took 28 points.

The stomach gas would press on my heart and put me in so much pain with my chest that I would get dizzy all over and I kept having terrible sick headaches du? to the awful condition of my stomach.

MR. ABE AZEN "I was in an awful condition and no medicine seemed to act on me at all. but finally I found Indo-Vin and it has worked the misery and suffering out of my whole body. My meals are digesting perfectly now and my food agrees with me and it never turns sour and forms gas in my stomach like it used to. I can even eat the acidity foods now and they agree with me. m fact. I can eat anything, and my meals are nourishing my system and doing me so much good that I have ten times the energy I had before. I am making this truthful statement for the sole reason that I want to help others who suffer and I want to urge ah suffering people to go and get this great medicine and take it.” The Indo-Vin man is now at Hook's Dependable Drug Store.

JOB INSURANCE PLANS SCANNED BY ROOSEVELT Social Security Next Step of President, Is Hint in Capital. By United Press WASHINGTON. Aug. 15.—President Roosevelt shortly may toss an old age and unemployment bombshell into the congressional campaign arena. That strategy was forecast two months ago when he outllined to congress in wholly general terms his plans for the seventy-fourth session which will begin in January. A special committee Monday reported progress on the social insurance program. Outstanding in the administration plan is determination to do something for the so-called white collar class of workers. These comparatively unorganized millions are mute when organized industry, organized labor, or the farm bloc shout tneir orders at the pie counter. Co-operation between federal and state governments is the basis of the social insurance plan upon which Mr. Roosevelt’s experts are working. The system would be similar to but not identical with the $90,000.000 railroad labor retirement act which the carriers have just challenged in court. The 137 major roads seek to enjoin the railroad retirement board from exacting annual tribute of $60,000,000 as a contribution toward compulsory pensions for 1.000,000 employes. The remainder would come from the workers’ wages. Part of Larger Program Social insurance is part of a larger program described as seeking to provide the people W’ith homes in which to live, productive employment, and safeguards against misfortune. Unemployment insurance is characterized merely as a continuation of emergency relief. It was estimated at the height of prosperity that upwards of 1,000,000 persons ould be unemployed permanently in this country under any conditions. The plans under examination by Mr. Roosevelt’s special board are understood to depend upon contribution rather than increased general taxation to raise both unemployment and old age insurance funds. Mr. Roosevelt proposed that the states stand most of the management costs. The federal government ould have custody of the insurance reserve funds. These would be invested to earn a return which would increase the capital behind the insurance venture. Problems to Be Eased Investment by the federal government, of course, would be in government bonds, thus easing somewhat financial problems of the treasury which would become at once a borrower and a lender, too, insofar as insurance money were spent for federal obligations. Speaking of insurance shortly before congress adjourned, Mr. Roosevelt said: ’I have commenced to make, with the greatest care, the necessary actuarial and other studies neecssary for the formulation of plans for the consideration of the seevnty-fourth congress. These objectives—security of home, security of livelihood, security of social insurance are a minimum of the promise that we can offer to the American people.” Spanish Prince Is Buried By United Press POERTSCHACH. Austria, Aug. 15. —The Infante Gonzola. fourth son of former King Alfonso of Spain, who died of hemophilia after an automobile accident, was buried today.

The Theatrical World Harold Lloyd Proves Real Actor in ‘Cat’s Paw,’ Smartest Fun in Years
THE smartest dialog picture 1 have seen and heard in twenty years is Harold Lloyd in ‘‘The Cat's Paw.” I saw it at a trade screening at the Apollo the other night. Harold Lloyd always has been a showman. This picture proves beyond any doubt that he is an actor. The first thing in his favor for his first picture in two years is that he bought a STORY. The yarn is necessary’. For the first time in Lloyd's business, he has a cast. The combination is perfect. You will find, when Kenneth Collins brings this masterpiece of satire and fun to his Apollo theater, a cast that does a lot of things. Look at these names with Lloyd— Una Merkel, George Barbier, Nat Pendleton. Grace Bradley. Alan Dinehart and Grant Mitchell.
HIGHWAY PAVING BATTLERAGES Use of Bricks in State Road Construction Protested by Residents. A storm of controversy, containing threat of court action, was rising today over the state highway commission contract award for paving of Road 31 between Franklin and Greenwood. The commission, it was charged, tentatively chose brick paving for the road on order of Governor Paul V. McNutt. The Governor favored brick “to boost Indiana business,’’ he explained. The highway commission favored a concrete roadway. The contract, however, tentatively was awarded to Hartman-Clark Bros. Company, Peoria, 111., which intends to purchase the brick from a firm in Martinsville, the Governor’s home town. Winning bid was $253,914.61 with an Indiana firm’s bid for brick about $2,000 higher. The low bituminous concrete was $193,593.78 from the Road Resurfacing Company, Bloomington. Threat of court action against the Governor and highway commission came from Ed Gray, Whiteland, one of several hundred residents along the involved road, who intimated the remonstrators would organize to halt the award. The remonstrators insist that a thirty-one-foot concrete roadway can be constructed for less money than a twenty-foot brick road and also declare that brick is out-moded as a highway material. MEETING IS PLANNED Optometrists Plan to Gather in City Club. Members of the Indiana Association of Optometrists, zone No. 7, will hold an educational meeting at the Hoosier Athletic Club at 6:30 tomorrow. Dr. Roland E.

ROOSEVELT TRIP ACROSS PACIFIC COST JUST S3 31 That’s the Expense of the Whole Trip. It Appears From Figures. By United Prr*s WASHINGTON. Aug. 15.—President Roosevelt's trip to Honolulu and back cost him less than S4OO. Any one else, traveling in similar style, would have paid about $150,000. His ride on the cruiser Houston from Annapolis to Portland, via Honolulu, didn't cost anybody anything. Salaries of the crew would have continued and the ship would have been steaming somewhere, anyway, so it simply figures there was no extra cost going to Honolulu. A private citizen might charter an ocean liner and a couple of smaller boats to go along to Hawaii for SIOO,OOO or so. Didn't Cost Anybody Telegraph executives estimated that official wireless messages to j and from the Houston totalled about 150,000 words. That didn't ! cost anybody anything either, be- ! cause he used the navy's wireless facilities. Commercial wireless rates to Washington from a ship en route to Honolulu are 21 cents a word. If one had sent as many radiograms as the President did, his bill would have been $31,500. A train awaited President Roosevelt at Portland. He rode home in a private car but all he had to pay was $180.42 for two fares and slll to the Pullman company for a drawing room. To hire a special train from Portland to Washington would cost anybody else $11,364 10. Railroads Make Money The railroad companies, classified the President’s special as an extra section of a regular train. Everybody who rode on Mr. Roosevelt’s train paid regular fares and the train was crowded all the way. The railroads thus made more money on the trip than if the President had hired a train for his Individual use. Mr. Roosevelt slept almost invariably aboard ship or train. His hotel bills therefore were negligible. His meals cost little. On most of his stops, he was invited out to lunch. His dinners and breakfasts aboard the train cost him regular dining car rates. A generout estimate of the cost of his meals is SSO. Another SSO would take care of his incidental expenses cigarets, toothpaste, etc. The cost of his trip in actual cash expended therefore amounted to about $391.
