National League _IT RUSSIA REVIVES POLISH PROBLEM (Continued from Page One) The Russian reply, as understood presented to the Big Four Is flatly: 8 U> 15 "You can have Argentina if we get Poland.’’ The Soviet contention is that Poland has suffered and fought throughout the war on the side of the United Nations, while Ar gentina has favored and actually cooperated with the Axis—an ac cusation frequently levelled by the Moscow press. Russia has expressed under standing of problems of western hemisj(nere solidarity, however, and is willing to permit the Argen tines to come to San Francisco— provided the Poles also come. The conference steering com mittee solidly rejected a proposal to invite Poland Friday, adopting instead a resolution expressing sympathy and admiration for the people of Poland and hope that a new, broadened government could be constituted in time to send delegates to the conference. Molotov, at that time, voiced a reservation, claiming the right to raise the problem again, but was drowned out by a chorus of S. The other delegates thought the conference had sidestepped suc cessfully the Polish problem, un til it was thrown back at them promptl the next day by the Sov iet commissar. Another rejection of an invitation to Poland appears inevitable, With the majority of delegations lining up solidly behind the United States and Britain in their ada mant stand against the present Warsaw government. What the Soviet attitude toward a second rejection might be could not be determined. The three-power commission, set up at the Crimean conference, to broaden the Warsaw govern ment, remains at loggerheads, al though the American apd British representatives, W. Averell Harri man and Sir Archibald Clark Kerr, are here with Molotov, the Soviet member. The issues over which they are locked have not been made public, pending continuance of the ne gotiations, but it is understood that they will be thrown open to the public, if the United States and Britain become convinced further progress is impossible. The impression here is that the Crimean discussion of a new Polish government was exceptionally easy, but that since then there has been a reversal of Soviet pol icy. The question of inviting the Poles to San Francisco was not raised in the Crimea, since it was ex pected that the new government would be constituted by now. Ferriss Blanks A’s As Cronin’s Red Sox Sweep Doubleheader PHILADELPHIA, April 29—UP) —The Boston Red Sox won both ends of a win bill today from the Philadelphia Athletics, captur ing a- 13-inning nightcap 6-3 and taking the opener 2-0. Rookie Dave Ferriss, recently discharged from the Army Air Forces, pitched his first major league game in the opener before 23,828 Shibe Park fans. He blanked the Mackmen 2-0, scattering five safe blows, and clubbed three hits in as many trips to the plate. Bobo Newsom was charged with the defeat, his second against one victory. \ Jess Flores had the nightcap sewed up 3-1 with two out in the ninth when Indian Bob Johnson injected some life in the, Bosox attack, blasting a home run with one aboard to knot the count. A double, two singles and a long fly by Johnson added three to the Bosox score in the 13th ^nd sent Flores down to his first de feat of the year. Reliefer Pinky Woods was the winning pitcher. The double win gave the Sox the series, three games to one, and their third straight victory after dropping their first eight games.

Romans for some time have tak en it for granted that Mussolini would not long survive the war and Allied victory, but the where abouts of Claretta have been some thing of a mystery. There had been rumors that she had fled to Spain. Claretta was remembered here as a commoner who became vain and overbearing when Mussolini's favors brought her into preemi nence. The people particularly de tested her during the lean war years when she traveled the streets in Luxurious automobiles and grew plump on the choicest foods. “She was a symbol of Fascist corruption,” remarked an actress who had known her., The only public demonstration in Rome today was a rally by the Committee of National Liberation in Apostoli square, where thousands gathered to honor the freeing of northern Italy. Mussolini’s reported execution stirred great admiration here for the patriots in the north, and the citizens were strongly inclined to contrast their quick dealing with the Fascists with the results in previously liberated areas. The purge here has been in pro gress eight months and there have been only two executions— both comparatively small fry. -V BAILS OUT INTO BEDROOM SPRINGFIELD, Mass., April 29. —(U.R)—Lt. Peter B.

The first ’Cat-’Quake fracas was rained out after four innings of play. The second scheduled game was called off last Tuesday because of a constant drizzle, and the third time the game was scheduled, Coach Jeffreys called and said that Goldbug diamond was not nearing the stage of overflow, but that the rain was coming down in tor rents. No word has been received from Coach Jeffreys, or anyone in Goldsboro for that matter, and— going on the assumption that the place is still there—the Hanover ians will attempt to finish what was started in Wilmington nearly a month ago. The ’Quakes studded with many of last year’s returning lettermen, have made a good showing thus far in the conference. Their only losses have been to Wilson and Rocky Mount, while they have gone on the warpath and lifted Raleigh’s and Durham’s scalps. The locals, who showed up much better than expected against Brog den’s ’Cycs Friday, should be able to give the Coldbugs a run for their money, but it would be well to remember when speculating as to the outcome of the game, that Goldsboro \ftis leading the locals 4-0 when their initial tilt was postponed. , Coach Dandelake made several changes in his starting lineup for the Wilson game, allowing Jim my Smith to take over shortstop, and letting Levy Heath do the catching. Kenneth Rogers, who held the hard-hitting Cyclones to nine base blows in nine innings, will prob ably get the nod to start off on the mound for the ’Cats. Vic James, who has been bat ting in eighth and ninth place in the batting order, has been the ’Cat slugger in the last two games, polling out four for five in Durham game, and two for two in the Wil son game. The Goldsboro nine has three possible starting twirlers, Malpass, Rose and Hallow. CLOTHING DRIVE TERMED SUCCESS (Continued from Page One) Boys.Club, covered the City and immediate suburbs. All clothing was not picked-up however, and Dosher asked that Wilmingtonians bring all remain, ing used garments to the nearest schools today. No effort will be made “to get clothing after today,-' le said. He anticipated that it would be two weeks before all :lothing is packed and shipped. The chairman expressed thanks ;o the people for their cooperation and donations, and also said that ae appreciated very much the help af those concerned in carrying- out ;he drive. Oscar Grimes on George Binks produced the Senators first run. A triple by Myatt and Joe Kuhel’s single accounted for the winning tally in the sixth. Atley Donald rapped out his fjrst major league homer in the third for the Yankee’s lone run. Ityss Berry featured Hank Borowy’s third win in the opener as he pounded out two homers. One came with the bases full as he batted in 8 runs to overcome an early Washington lead. The Senators took a four run lead on three singles, two passes plus stolen bases by 6eorge Case and George Binks and errors by Oscar Girmes and Mike Garbark. Grimes initial homer accounted for the final Yankee run in the eighth. A crowd of 38,443 attended.

LOUIS, April 29.—MV-'The Chicago White Sox hopes of emu lating the early winning streak of the 1944 St. Louis Browns were ended today at Sportsmans Park as the Browns handed them a double defeat, 3 to 2 and 10 to 4. It was the same Chicago club that ended the Browns’ winning streak last year at the first nine games of the season. Bob Muncrief, now a full-time defense worker, and Jack Kramer were the winning pitchers and Thornton Lee and Ed Lopat the losers. The Browns came from behind to win the first contest, climaxed in the home half of the ninth by a triple by Catcher Frank Man cuso followed by a long fly by pinch hitter Gene Moore that sent home the winning run. Vernon Stephens hit his second home run of the season in the eighth to tie the score. In spite of the double log* the Sox retained their undisputed hold on first place when the De troit Tigers split a doubleheader with Cleveland. * T»iiu.u me oiuwiis naven t displayel since the pre-season spring series with the St. Louis Cardinals brought victory to the Americn League champions in the second contest. They pounded four Chicago hurlers for 13 hits includ ing a two-run triple by Don Gut teridge and doubles by Mark Christman, Stephens and Mancuso. Lee, who lost the first game, was the only one of the four •tart ing pitchers to go the route. Sig Jakucki, Tex Shirley and Mun crief worked for the Brown* in the opener and Kramer relieved A1 Hollingsworth during a White Sox uprising in the fourth InnW of the second game. The two victories extended the Browns’ winning streak to three games. They previously had drop ped three games to the Sox in Chi cago. ... r,r»t Gama Chlcara Ab R n 0 A E Moses, rf s n a i n , Hockett, Cf . Dickshot, If .. Nagel. Ib .1 3 0 1 t S ?
