The double victory raised the Dodgers half a game ahead of the St. Louis Cardinals in the won lost totals, although St Louis held a precious five-point margin in the percentages to remain in first place in the'National League. Curt Davis smothered the Reds in the first game, allowing only four singles and never letting a runner past first base. Whitlow Wyatt started the sec ond game, but after pitching to one batter retired because of a sore arm. Bobo Newsom, who went to the mound cold, gave seven hits in go ing what amounted to nine full in nings and received credit for his eighth victory against three de feats.

STAMP SALES—BOND SALES FRIENDLY CAFETERIA NATIONAL SELECTS ALL-STARS ... i .a - A- -A_ EIGHT CARDINALS DOMINATE SQUAD FOR ANNUAL TILT Eleven Of Players Picked Newcomers To All Star Play NEW YORK, June 30 — (A>) — A strong National League all-star squad, dominated by eight of the world champion St. Louis Cardi nals, was announced today for the 11th annual clash with a picked team from the American League at Philadelphia Tuesday night, of the eight managers of the senior The selections, made in a poll July 13. circuit, were made public by Man ager Billy Southworth after a con ference with league president Ford Frick and appeared to be as near ly free from dispute as any team in the history of the “dream game,” which originated as a newspaper promotion for the 1933 Chicago World’s Fair fans doing the picking. As announced by Southworth, who will lead the team, the squad includes: Pitchers — Morton Cooper, Max Lanier and Howard Pollet, St. Louis; Truett (Rip) Sewell, Pitts burgh; Claude Passeau, Chicago; Johnny Vander Meer, Cincinnati; and A1 Javery, Boston. Catchers — Walker Cooper, St. Louis; Mickey Owen, Brooklyn; and Ernest Lomoardi, New York. Infielders - — Ellsworth (Babe) Dahlgren, Philadelphia; Frank Me. Cormick, Lonnie Frey and Eddie Miller, Cincinnati; Martin Marion and George Kurowski, St. Louis; Billy Herman, Brooklyn; and Stan ley Hack, Chicago. Outfielders — Stan Musial and Harry Walker, St. Louis; Vince DiMaggio, Pittsburgh; Bill Nichol son, Chicago; Mel Ott, New York; Fred (Dixie) Walker and Augie Galan, Brooklyn. Batting practice pitchers — Si Johnson, Philadelphia, and Clyde Shoun Cincinnati. Batting practice catcher — Vir gil (Spud) Davis, Pittsburgh. Coaches — Mike Gonzales, St. Louis, and Frank Frisch, Pitts burgh. This squad represents an incre dible shakeup of playing talent. Eleven players, including six of the eight Cardinals, are absolute newcomers to all-star competition and four others were not in last year’s lineup, although they had been named at some time previous ly. By the same token many stars of past games are missing—among them Bucky Walters, Paul Der ringer, Johnny Mize, Jimmy Brown, Terry Moore, Enos Slaugh. ter, Joe Medwick, Whitlow Wyatt and Arky Vaughan. Some of this turnover is due to the war, but some standouts like Sewell, this year’s winningest pitcher, Dahlgren, the league’s batting leader with approximately a .350 batting average, and Mar ion, the Cardinals’ great short stop, would have earned their places no matter what the condi tions. Perhaps the nearest thing to a surprise on the squad was the choice of two Brooklyn outfield ers neither Walker nor Galan is having his best year, yet for all around ability the only outfielder who might be considered crowded off the squad is Tommy Holmes, batting about .300 for the Boston Braves. NEW TAfMEASURE BEGINS OPERATION (Continued From Page One) withholding levy, but not from fi nal payment of income taxes, farm laborers, domestic servants, members of the armed forces and ministers. In addition it makes special provision for farmers, by permitting them to file ther an tcipated income estimates as late as December 15, and gives them a permissible margin of error of 33 1-3 per cent instead of the 20 per cent allowed other taxpayers. For failure to estimate within those allowable margins of error, the act provides a six per cent penalty. Individual taxpayers, while their current tax bills have not been lessened nor the choi’e of filing returns lifted, will be happy about two phases of the new system. For this year, at least, they have the word of both Treasury Sec retary Morgenthau and Chairman Doughton (D.-N. C.) of the tax framing House Ways and Means committee, that the present levy will not be increased. And when they die—provided it’s after March 15, 1945, and provided their anticipated income estimates were correct—their tax bills to the government will be stamped “paid.” -„-V COMMISSIONED ATLANTA, - Ga., June 30—(A>)— Frederic W.

In addition to making up a tasty dish, whether or not it’s garnished with mashed potato rosettes and cauliflower hollandaise, this would also straighten out the whole laugh able lightweight follies. It would leave you with just one champ, at long last, instead of the mess that’s been as mixed up as boarding house hash for months. As far as all hands are concern ed, the thing is as hushhush as a military secret, since the original plan was for Bobcat to put his ti tle on the line first against Beau, the jumping jack, from whom he took it a couple of months ago. But some spicy condiments have been sprinkled into the pot in recent days to make it look as if the Montgomery-Angott affair is going to be the main dish, probably in August, and Bouncing Beau will get the “survivor” in September. Even Mike Jacobs is likely to go along with this, because it means two money matches will be growing where only one — the Jack Montgomery shindig — grew be fore. The Pennsylvania commission has gone along with the New York com mission in recognizing Bob as head man. And the smarties tell you it was more than just to hear himself talk that Leon Rains, the Pennsyl vania commission chairman, in an nouncing his blessing, said flatly Bob would make his first defense in Philadelphia. What’s more, Sammy, who abdi cated the throne last fall in retir ing “permanently” for a few weeks, also is a Pennsylvanian, and it is known there has been quite a bit of heat on Rains for sanctioning Bob and not giving Angott a title pat on the head. RED SOX, TIGERS PLAY TO 3-3 TIE Twilight Game Is Called On Account Of Darkness DETROIT, June 30-The Bos ton Red Sox and Detroit Tigers, exchanging dramatic ninth inning home runs, played to a 3 to 3 tie in 12 innings in a twilight game tonight before 13,789 fans who paid an estimated $10,000 to the Na tional War Fund, Inc. The Tigers nailed lanky Tex Hughson, seeking his tenth vic tory, for a first inning run on three hits and an unearned mark er in the seventh. Going into the ninth, Virgil Trucks and Hal White had a three-hit shuout, but Tony Lupien singled and with two out Bobby Doerr slammed his fifth homer. A pass to Babe Barna and Ed-1 die Lake's double put the So>.| in front, but Pinky Higgins open ed the Tiger ninth off Mace Brown with his sixth homer of the sea son to square things again.

During June the Eighth Air Force has lost 82 bombers in seven expeditions compared to 62 heavy and ten medium bombers lost in nine raids in May. In view of the much larger number of planes in volved in June, however, the loss es were not considered excessive. The number of German fighters shot down in the last month prob ably is between 200 and 250, and the Americans also have increased greatly their bomb tonnage per raid. Capt. Sir Harold H. Balfour, un der secretary of state for air, em phasized the magnitude of the Al lied aerial offensive. He told the House of Commons today that the RAF now is dropping bombs on Germany at three times the 1942 rate. Approximately 37,500 tons had been dropped on Germany in the three months ending June 26 as compared with approximately 12. 000 tons loosed in the correspond ing period for 1942, he said. The Germans themselves high lighted their defensive status by broadcasting for home consump tion an OWI report that 1,100 Ger man fighter planes and 30.000 guns had been concentrated in the Ruhr. Large segments of this indus trial heart of Germany have been gutted by the RAF, which deliv ered nine major attacks against it in June. It was reliably estimated that the RAF's deluge of 12,500 tons in May had been surpassed by upwards %of 1,000 tons. Britain’s greatest bomber force of the war struck Duesseldorf June 11. The month also was notable in Britain’s inauguration of a “shuttle service” and th e first penetration by American airmen of the Ruhr. In addition, an of ficial statement said the U. S. Eighth Air Force had been doubled since March, and would be re doubled by October, British “shuttle” bombers struck Friedrichshaven in southwestern Germany in one attack, landed in Africa, reloaded, and bombed the Italian naval base of La Spezia er.route home—all without the loss of a .single .plane. This operation -foreshadows fu ture tactics as an Allied aerial rin^contracts steadily on the Axis. City Briefs ACTIVITY RISES The month of June witnessed increased activity in the office of the Register of Deeds, as marriage licenses were granted 110 white couples and three Ne gro couples.

The other recommendation pro vided that sales in 1943 on each ma rket in South Carolina, North Carolina and Virginia be five hours in length and that no piles should exceed 350 pounds in weight, instead of 400 pounds as last year. Governor Colgate W. Darden Jr., of Virginia, spoke on the dif ficulties faced by the state de partments in operating with limited personnel, and predicted that it was not improbable that “we may have to shut down some sections of the state government until bet ter times.” The association, in addition to re-electing Carrington as presi dent, returned to office Vice Pre sidents L. L. Gravely of Rocky Mount, N. C., H. R. Pettus of Richmond, and Clyde B. Austin of Greenville, Tenn. R. C. Stokes of Lynchburg was named as hon orary life member of the board of governors, and the following added to the board; H. A. Ford of Richmond, to succeed Stokes; J. G. Boatwright of Danville, to succeed C. W. Toms, Jr., Durham, N. C., deceased, and Walter Pax ton of Wilson, N. C. Carrington, in his annual report said there would be a “tremend ous shortage of labor not only with the growers and the ware housemen, but also in the pro cessing of the 1943 crop. “It would be the duty of every one connected with this associa tion,” he added, “to handle the crop in such a manner that no detriment should accure to the growers and no harm be done to the food crops which are vitally necessary for the war effort” Carrington reported that the Commodity Credit Corporation had acquired in average of 22 per cent of the last four flue cured crops. “If we estimate the 1943 crop at 800,000,000 pounds,” he said, “it is now thought that the cMivern ment will want to acquire ap proximately 39 per cent of this quantity.” Of the 725,000,000 green pounds of flue cured leaf purchased by the CCC, 407,962,000 pounds have been shipped to lend-lease com panies, 42,000,000 pounds repur chased for shipment by exporters, and 208,426,000 pounds are still in the hands of the corporation, Car rington reported. The Associated Press said the heavy lend-lease shipments have been brought about by “a decline in the growth of colonial tobacco in India, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa, due to shortage of growers’ manpower and to lack of shipping space after the crops are harvested.” -V GAMES POSTPONED WILSON, June 30—(#)—American Legion baseball games scheduled here for this afternoon and tonight were postponed because of weath er conditions.

WALLACECLEARS RECENT CHARGES (Continued From Page One) procurement and development of all imported strategic war mater ials under public purchase, so that BEAV may be completely in dependent of RFC.” The Wallace statement indicat ed that Byrnes, the Administra tion’s umpire and conciliator of disputes, had thus reached a set tlement embracing two points: 1. What was in effect an apology from Wallace to Jones. 2. A promise of White House backing, through the budget bur eau, for Wallace’s move to free the BEW from dependence on the RFC for funds. In his statement, Wallace said that the difficulties between him self and the Secretary of Com merce “had to do with strong dif ferences of opinion with regard to the quantities of various products to be obtained at a given time and place.” He said these differ ences might reflect upon the judgment of the individuals involv ed but “do not reflect upon the desire of the individuals to serve their country.” Informed sources, unwilling to be quoted by name, described the conference in Byrnes’ office as fairly friendly with Jones and Wal. lace talking with each other quite peaceably, though very frankly.
