. Mrs. Joe Cronin Recovering; Boy and Girl Twins Born Dead MR. AND MRS. CRONIN. RS. MILDRED ROBERTSON CRONIN, wife of Joe Cronin, Red Sox manager, was re- ported resting comfortably this morning in a hospital at Sara- #ota, Fla, after her boy and girl twins were born dead yesterday afternoon. She rallied when grave fears were being expressed for her condition and had a good night, it was said. If all goes well, the Cronins expect to leave for Washington Sunday and Mrs. Cronin will convalese at the home of her uncle and foster father, Clark Griffith. Mrs. Cronin unexpectedly was re- moved to the hospital from the Sarasota Terrace Hotel yesterday morning just before the Red Sox were ready to leave for Sebring, Fla., for | an exhibition game with the Newark | Bears. | Cronin turned the club over to iIUTTON AdeIiNEY HITS S. E. C. TACTICS Herb Pennock and accompenied Mrs. Cronin to the hospital. As soon as the babies were born and his wife's condition became apparent, Cronin notified Griffith at the Washington training camp at Orlando, but said it would not be necessary for him or Mis. Griffith to come to Sarasota. The babies were baptized at birth by the nurse at the request of the , father and mother, both Catholics. Cronin was still managing the Washington ball club when he mar- ried Mildred June Robertson at St. Matthew's Church on September 27, 1934. In addition to losing Cronin tem- porarily, the Red Sox also will be without the services of two other play- ers, Oscar Melillo, second baseman, and Shortstop Eric McNair. Melillo left for Chicago today on receipt of word that his wife’s condition had taken a turn for the worse following the birth of a son about a week ago. McNair is visiting his motherless baby at Meridian, Miss. Mrs. McNalr re- cently died at childbirth. Charges Counsel With “Unconsti- | tutional” Search and Seizure | of Firm's Records. | David W. Peck, attorney for W. E. Hutton & Co., charged yesterday that Securities Commission counsel was guilty of ‘“unconstitutional and unwarranted search and seizure” of private records. Peck leveled the accusation at Coun- #el Jacob Gruber during a hearing | into the commisison's charge that the Hutton brokerage firm manipulated stock of Atlas Tack Corp. | Peck objected to Gruber's examina- tion of some of the monthly accounts of Hutton customers who bought Atlas stock He protested use of any monthly statements which did not show purchases or sales or holdings of Atlas stock, while Gruber contended all the accounts must be studied to understand the ramifications of trans- actions in Atlas.

A warning broadcast today by Capt. Edward V. Rickenbacker, general manager of Eastern Airlines, that con- ditions at most airports along its routes are not adequate to handle the new 21-passengers airliners soon to be in- stalled on most schedules, was directed in part at Washington, airline officials admitted. Washington Airport cannot be used by the big planes with full load, it was pointed out by local officials of the line. It is not considered safe to at- tempt operations here with more than a third of the full fuel load, and under certain wind conditions it is probable ‘Washington will be. dropped as a scheduled stop. “Municipalities whose airports are either too small or poorly maintained cannot expect to participate in the faster and more luxurious services which 21-passenger equipment will offer,” Rickenbecker said. Civic shortsightedness is in a large pert responsible for existing airport conditions, he added. S Between the years 1140 and 1815, & period of 670 years, England was at ‘war with France for 266 years. DANDRUFF WILL DO IT! You should follow Glover’s System!

MORRO CASTLE FAIR VICTORS IN APPEAL Court Reverses Verdict That Con- victed Capt. Warms and Abbott. 1Y the Associated Press. NEW YORK, April 8—The United States Circuit Court of Appeals yes- terday unanimously reversed a lower court verdict that convicted Capt. Wil- lam F. Warms and Chief Engineer Eben Abbott of civiminai negiigence in the liner Morro Castle disaster. The Circuit Court ruled the evi- dence was insufficlent. It completely exonerated Warms of charges of mis- management in the fire that took 134 lives off the New Jersey coast in Sep- l_IV.E IN C tember, 1934, and ruled that instruc- tions to the jury on some of the charges against Abbott were incom- plete. The reversal sets aside prison sen- tences of two and four years imposed on Warms and Abbott, respectively, in January, 1936. They have been free on bail during appeal. The United States attorney’s office said last night the appellate decision leaves the Government the alterna- tive of dropping the indictments or retrying the case, but that retrials in cases of reversals were not cus- tomary. Warm's ‘master’s” license was sus- pended for 80 days in February, 1935, but his chief mate’s license and Ab- bott’s chief engineer's license were re- stored the following May.
