Manager Dolph Camilll Is on the pan for alleged inferior Judg ment in handling of his pitchers and for not sticking himself into the lineup at first base; Out fielder Frank Hawkins, the lead ing hitter, is riding the bench until Friday because of profane language, and some of the pitch ers who were supposed to be re liable have been cousins to the weakest batsmen in the circuit.

Chips DECREES TESTED Portland, Ore., June 7 (U.R) A test suit to determine the legality of a Nevada divorce in Oregon courts was filed today by Anna Kelley of Portland, who seeks legal separation with out a divorce from her husband.
