We don't remember any star
Jewish twirlers in the big leagues.
As a matter of fact, Jewish pitch-
ers of any kind have been rare
in the National and American
Leagues. Sydney Cohen, brother
of Andy Cohen, one-time Giant's
second baseman, is getting an-
other tryout` with the Senators.
He was up in 1936, but his rec-
ord of 2 losses and no wins got
him a ticket back to the minors.
Down south he has shown signs
of having real stuff and maybe
he'll stay up this year if he can
regain his 1934 form, when he
was the leading pitcher of the
Southern Association. The same
goes for Harry Eisenstadt. Brook-
lyn would go wild if Harry made
good in a big way. The sensation
of the 1935 spring training sea-
son, when he held the world
champion Tigers scoreless for 13
consecutive Innings, he fizzled in
the big league. Farmed out to
Dayton, he won 18 and lost 8.
On the strength of this record he
was recalled in 1936. In five
games for Brooklyn, he pitched
14 innings, winning one and los-
ing two. So back he went to
the minors, this time to Allen-
town, where he finished with a
record of 19 and 8. The sore
arm that kept him from making
the grade in Brooklyn is now
gone and it looks as if Harry may
be a starter for the Dodgers.
Add Harry Grabiner, vice-presi-
dent of the Chicago White Sox,
and William I3inswanger, presi-
dent of the Pittsburgh Pirates,
and perhaps Dolly Stark, who may
yet return as the National
League's best umpire, and you
have the Jewish figures in the
major leagues. They're an in-
teresting lot of young men. Keep
your eye on them when the sea-
son opens on April 20. You'll
hear plenty about them after that.

In a message to the conference,
David Lloyd George, war-time
premier, declared that the Allied
Power must not remain indifferent
to the persecutions against Jews
in Poland and to the refusal of
the Polish government to live up
to the treaty obligations. The
peace treaties, Mr. Lloyd George
declared, were designed to pre-
vent new religious and racial per-
secution and still the Jews are
suffering of new barbaric attacks.
Similar messages were received
from the Bishop of York, from
Lord Cecil, from Labor Dep-
uty Attlee and Deputy Archibald
Sincler. Among the speakers at
the conference were Prof. S.
Brodetzky and Rev. M. L. Perl-
zweig. The conference adopted
a resolution demanding equal
rights for Jewe in Poland and de-
claring that Jews all over the
world will help in the rehabilita-
tion of Jewish masses in Poland
if the government will do its
share. In condemning the excesses
against Jews the resolution em-
phasized that the Jews are neither
foreigners nor a superfluous ele-
ment in Poland.

ed in this newspaper last month.
This contest is sponsored by the
makers of Double-Mellow Old

nouncement it has captivated the
American public and has created
such unusual interest that from
every village and town contes-
tants are filing their entry forms.
Everyone wants to win one of the
1000 prizes. And the makers of
Old Gold Cigarettes did not for-
get to include their Jewish friends

ready entered this contest. They
are working hard on the puzzles.
All are anxious to win. If you
have not yet entered the contest
it is not too late. Go to your
nearest cigarette dealer and ask
him for a set of official Old Gold

the instructions carefully and you

ments have assured the general
committee that an excellent five-
