As a result he looks to a decrease in the cost of imperted articles. England’s move brought a prompt improvement in the exchange rate of the peso, against the dollar, sending the peso up 10 to 15 points. This, however, is considered in financial circles to be largely a psychological effect. It fis believed that the peso has found its true exchange ratio at three to the dollar and government steps to stabilize it at that figure are con- sidered probable. Auspices L:0.0. M.

Sensahonal Fielder Heads Savage Attack —Hits Home Run | (Continued Iroin Fage One) | After Hafey fanned, he raced to third on Bottomlsy’s single to right but he was stranded there| when Wilson's line smash went into Bishop's hands and Bottomley was d doubled off first. Explosion in Sixth Hoyt retired the Cards in order in the fifth, but they fell onto him savagely in the sixth and, though he finished that inning. his labors were ended for the day. Watkins opened the sixth by flying to left. Frisch spanked the apple to center for a sweet two- bagger. Hoyt's first pitch to Mar- tin was wide of the plate and Pepper let it go by. He met the next pitch on the nose and it cleared the enclosure, landing high on the second tier of the left field pavilion, and he and Fr‘isch trotted home2 with the runs that clinched the game. Simmons made a fine catch of Hafey's line drive to left,' and Haas, after a great run, spear- ed Bottomley's fly to short right center, taking the ball .on a dead run. i ‘Walberg to the Rescue i Rube Walberg, southpaw veteran of the A's, relieved Hoyt on the mound at the beginning of the seventh and retired the side in order. Wilson nicked him for a single but was out attempting to, steal second. In the eighth, the Cards scored another run, with Martin again in the hero role. Walberg set High down on strikes to open the stanza. Watkins waited him out for a free ride to first, and promptly " stole second. Moore crossed the line for Frisch's foul fly. Walberg took a chanca and pitched to Martin who slashed out a sizzling single to left field and Watkins scored with the Cards fourth run. After Mack sent in a pinch hitter for Walberg in the eighth, Eddie Rommel, veteran righthander, fin- ished the game on the mound. Hafey singles to left, but was forced at second by Bottomley. Wilson singled to center, sending Bottomley to third from where he scored on Gelbert's single to left. Simmons took Hallahan's fly in center to end the inning. A’s Score in Seventh The first 12 Athletics to face Hallahan were out, although one, Simmons, got on base. He doubled to right in the second for the first of three hits he made today. A fast double play by the Card in- field kept him frof scoring. Foxx, following Al’, went out, High to Bottomley, High driving Simmons back to second before he made the play. Miller hit to deep short. Gelbert took the ball on a run, shet it to first for the putout and Bottomley laced it home to Wilson catching Simmons who had tried to score. | Simmons singled open th2 fifth and Foxx walked, but the next three were outs, Bottomley taking foul flies from Miller and Dykes and Hallahan fanned Wil- liams. After Cochrane popped out to Frisch in the seventh, Simmons got another single, his third suc- cessive hit. . Foxx singled sending him to third, from where he scored when Miller grounded to third, | forcing Foxx at second. Dykes singles and Miller went to second, but Williams popped out to Frisch.

Many such ac- | cidents are often the result of flag- rant carelessness. Igniting fires with the aid of | Ssuch liquids as kerosene and gaso- line caused 14.5 per cent of all re- ported deaths and 117 per cent | of all injuries. Chief Cause of Casualties This was the leading cause of casualties attributable to flam- mable liquids being about 50 per cent larger than other combined causes. Such accidents are prevent- able almost without exception. In many cases the mere use of these liquids is an added danger to life and property. Practices resulting in death or injury range from smoking while cleaning clothing in gasoline to polishing the warm cooking stove with an explosive mixture.

T.—Peggy, Moseley is no opera star when she ' sings, but her eloquent, lyrical eyes won her fame when her voice failed her. ol i For: five years her auburn hair and ‘large, lovely eyes made her| i an outstanding member of 'bhe; chorus. Too, she was an excellent dancer and more than one pro- ducer predicted that here was wa- | terial from which stars are made. Peggy's aspirations were to' be- come a prima donna, and she had all the requisites except a singing voice. It was then that her lumi- nous eyes lifted her out of the chorus up to the footlights as a principal. Rudy Valle was seeking a girl '.Ow whom he could sing “This Is the Missus” in the “Scandals. Rudy.; of course, was to do the crooning, | but he needed a pair of beautiful eyes 'to which he could sing™ the song. This was necessary, becauge the lyric went own those' lips,-I own those eyes.'

Moore and Cechrane singled with two out in the eighth. Hallahan elected to pitch to Sim- mons and forced him to ground to| third, High stepping on the bag and forcing out Moore. Foxx caught the Card infield napping in the ninth and bunted safely to open it. Miller grounded to short, forcing Jimmy at second. Miller was safe at first but was himself forced at second when Dykes grounded to Frisch.
