Lewis Defeats
Sherwood To
Reach Finals
Has Chance For 3 Titles
As City Net Play Nears
Championship Round
After one of the most gruelling
matches in the history of the tourney
eliminated Miller Sherwood, sopho-
more member of Michigan's Varsity
team, in the 15th city tennis tourna-
ment Sunday, champions in all divi-
sions will be decided today and to-
morrow.
Sherwood was eliminated Sunday
by Steve Lewis, the defending men's
titleholder, in a match which went
to five sets before the largest crowd
ever to see a city tournament match.
Lewis opened the match with a 6-4
win in the first set but lost the sec-
ond set by the same count. The
titleholder then went ahead to win
6-4, but a dogged battle by Sherwood
evened the match score with a win at
6-1.
The deciding set was won by Lewis,
6-3.

Army'Sedition'
Bill Denounced
As Oppressive
WASHINGTON, July 22. -(P) -
Declaring that the Tydings-McCor-
mack "disaffection" bill would use
"a 12-inch gun to kill a gnat," Repre-
sentatives Maverick (D., Tex.), and
Kvale (F.L., Minn.) today filed a
minority report denouncing the
measure.
Backers of the bill, which has been
approved by the house military com-
mittee, declare its purpose is to make
it a crime to incite soldiers or sailors
to disobedience or disaffection. The
minority report said the bill really is
aimed at "honest expressions of
opinions."
"This should be called the Stalin-
Hitler bill," Maverick said in filing a
20-page brief opposing it.
"The truth is," the minority opin-
ion said, "that it is not really aimed
at Communists - that is a subterfuge
- but at the honest peace-time ex-
pression of opinions on anything re-
motely concerning the arm and navy
by decent American citizens or any
projects favored by profiteering mu-
nitions makers and similar interests.
It is a brash piece of Hitleristic
Fascism."

Threat Of War
Follows Irish
eigious Riots
9 Dead As Wild Disorder
Stirs Protestants And
Catholics Of Nation
BELFAST, Northern Ireland, July
22. - (R)-- A regin of terror arising
from anti-Catholic riots in Northern
Ireland and resulting in violent anti-
Protestant reprisals in the Free State
threatened today to plunge all of Ire-
land into religious strife.
As a ninth person died here last
night under a sniper's fire, a wave of
lincendiarism, bombing and sitone
throwing swept border towns where
mobs burned down three Protestant
halls and one Masonic hall.
Prayers for peace were offered in
all Belfast churches while troops with
tin hats and fixed bayonets stood
guard.
Widespread anti-Protestant dem-
onstrations in many parts of the Free
State to the south during the week-
end were attributed directly to North-
ern Ireland anti-Catholic rioting and
terrorism.
At Limerick, on the Shannon river
in the southwestern Free State, a mob
of youths smashed windows in busi-
ness houses owned by Protestants.
At Clones, in the Irish Free State,
the Masonic Hall was destroyed. Two
other buildings were damaged by in-
cendiary fires - a Gospel hall, prop-
erty of the Protestant congregation,
and a recreation hall, maintained by
non-religious bodies.
The ninth victim of the strife,
swelling steadily since Orangemen's
celebration July 12 of the anniversary
of the battle of the Boyne, was Eddie
Scarlett. He was shot on the city's
east side, hitherto free of disorder.
Lazy Catfish Is Lively
If It Senses A 'Quake
MANILA, P. I., July 22. - () -
The suggestion of a Japanese sci-
entists that catfish may be able

to sense earthquakes before they
are felt or recorded by seismo-
graphs is finding some basis for
fact in the observations of Dr.
Felix V. Santos.

Probably opdrating on the old Chinese theory that a picture is worth 10,000 words, Max Baer and his bride, Mary Ellen Sullivan, prove their '
domestic felicity by posing on the beach at Long Branch, N.J., with some neighbor kids. A $70,000 vote of confidence - extension of Joe Mc-
Carthy's $35,000-salary contract as manager of the Yankees through 1936 and '37 -was Col. Jacob Ruppert's tacit reply to hints that maybe
Babe Ruth would yet come back to the Stadium in an executive capacity. Lower right, the Colonel and Marse Joe (left to right) seem mutually
happy about it.
Two recent contributions to the well-known pulchritude of feminine swimming stars - as well as the record books - are the Kompa sisters
of New York (upper left). Erna (left) recently bettered backstroke records for 300, 400 and 440 yards in a single afternoon. Sister Elizabeth
also excels in dorsal navigation. They're 21 and 20 yars old, respectively. W. Lawson Little (lower left) came home as a third-class passenger
on the Majestic because of asserted lowness of funds, after winning the British amateur title for the second straight year. He planned a little
rest and lessons from Tommy Armour before going after the: 1935 National amateur title in the meet at Cleveland, where he'll be defending
his other 1934 amateur crown. Dynamic Donald Budge, 20-year-old Oakland, Calif., redhead who reached the semi-finals in his first visit to
Wimbledon, earned a singles berth on the United States Davis cup team for the interzone tie with Germany.

Donie Bush Is
A Real Success
In Minneapolis
MINNEAPOLIS, July 22. - (W) -
Donie Bush - just a symbol for "suc-
cess" to local baseball fans.
Minneapolis - just a place to fat-
ten a managerial average for Donie.
After a decade of getting nowhere
in particular, the Minneapolis club
of the American association called on
Donic in 1932 to come here and take
over the managerial reins.
Donie injected some of the fight
and hustle that he, Ty Cobb and oth-
ers of the old school picked up while
playing with the Detroit Tigers years
ago. The Minneapolis team responded
with a title for Bush in 1932.
Folks in Cincinanti thought Bush
might do the Reds some good so they
called on him to manage the Reds in
1933. But Donie lay ill for a good
share of that summer and in the fall
agreed to return here.
Last year the Millers again won the
regular season title but lost to Co-
lumbus in the playoff. This year the
Millers, in midseason, look as though
they are going to be hard to beat out
of the bunting.

This powerful, 12-wheeled combat car, successor of the outmoded tanks and combat cars of the World
War, is typical of the fighting machinery with which the first cavalry is "mechanized" at Fort Knox.
Traveling 50 miles or more an hour, these combat cars carry machine guns in their revolving turrets and
have steel plates, with peep holes, for windshields. Ev ery fourth car has a radio.

FORT KNOX, Ky., July 22. - (/f') -
A cavalry regiment without horses,
but with $2,500,000 worth of fighting
machinery on wheels, is going,
through a period of intensive train-
ing on this 33,000 acre military reser-
vation where the treasury will build
a rock-bound vault to protect heavy
stores of government gold.
The First Cavalry is the only me-
chanized cavalry regiment in the
army. Not a man in this fast mov-
ing unit is on foot when assigned to
active duty; not one rides horseback
except for recreation.
Backing up the mechanized cavalry
in war department charts is the 68th
field artillery, mechanized, also per-
manently assigned to Fort Knox.
The next development, after an ex-
tensive building program here is com-
pleted, is expected to be the mechani-
zation of another cavalry regiment.
At an estimated cost of $2,500,000
for neW fighting machinery, this
would give Fort Knox full brigade
strength of three regiments, concen-
trating the mechanized forces in this
growing military center, 31 miles
south of Louisville in the Ohio River
valley.
To man their 200 vehicles, which
will be brought up to the minute this
fall with 56 new 17,000-pound com-
bat cars to replace outmoded "mo-
squito" and medium sized armored
automobiles, every soldier in the regi-
ment has to be a mechanical expert.
Every one of the 200 wheeled
fighters, bristling with machine guns,
short-wave radios and armor plate,
and every man in the regiment, from
Brig. Gen. Guy V. Henry, command-
ant, down, is ready, day or night, to
snap into action.
Although the mechanized cavalry,
to use an army phrase, lacks the in-
dividual mobility of men on horse-
back, its speed - officially 45 miles
an hour for most units, unofficially
up to 70 miles an hour - and its tre-

i
i

on duty hereare the 12-wheel, 22,-
000-pound, 420-horsepower Christie
combat cars. Deadly machine guns
are poked out from their revolving
turrets. Their sponge rubber tires are
impervious to bullets. In addition,
they have heavy steel plates for wind-
shields, with narrow slits for the
drivers' vision. A radio is mounted
in the command car of each platoon
of four.
Although its equipment in many
ways is the most modern in the army,
the First Cavalry's traditions are

among the oldest. Its regimental
banner carries 42 streamers for bat-
tle honors, awarded for distinguished
service in action over the last 102
years.
