All through the winter it ha been figured from various angles that the Dodgers constituted a first division baseball chili perhaps. The Braves, l'hillies and Giants have been called stronger.

Tho ability of the French to bom bard without limit any point, at any time, is what permits the absolute cer tainty of an advance- Such a concen tration of fire as the French pour in where they want it, completely wipes ot every defensive device known to German genius or constructed by Gor- iaii labor since 19H. But if the actual fighting battle front does not reveal the presence of troops immediately to the rear there is everywhere visible a titanic con centration of mon, munitions and ma terial. The valleys woods and ravines am filled with cavalry, infantry, hitch ed batteries, munition trains, automo biles, trucks, cannon all either ad vancing or awaiting the word to dash to the front. There is forward move ment everywhere. Haig Smashes Again London, April 21. Ficld Marshal Haig smashed another blow at Cambrai today and advanced more than a mile toward that atroughold of the Hinden onrg lin, Hia capture of Qonnelieu was an nounced in an official statement tdday. The British commander in chief re ported sharp fighting in this drive. He likewise detailed repulse of a German attack delivered at Fauquissart and considerable artillery firing at a num er ?f places along the front. With the capture of Gonnelieu, Haig'g steei iine paralleling the Cam-bri- - Quentin highway had fcecn shoved ono mile closer to Cambrai, and a dividing angle for a blow on that e,ty formed, reaching from Havrin veurt and Villers Ploulch to Gonnelieu "n the north, to Villere Guislain and f.jehy on the south. "During the night we captured Gonnelieu after sharp fighting, taking a number of prisoners," the report said'. "An cnemv party attempted to enter our trenches in the neighborhood of Fauquissart, but were repulsed. Ar tillering ws active at a number of places during the night." French Make More Gains Paris, April 21 More ground was gained by French attacks north or Kheims today while General Nivelle s forces beat back German attacks upon the positions around Mont Haut, which were wrested from the enemy a fen days ago. The French official statement, an tails of the past 24 hours fighting, declared heavy losses had been inflicted .upon the Germans in the Mont Haut repulse- "Artillery was activo during tne night north" of the Aisne in the region v;i T.a vosse and Hautebise, i. atfttement said. "Cannonading was particularly violent east of Cra mine nnd north of Bheims. . "French forces gained ground in grenade fighting south of Jiiviucour. and east of Coucy." (.Tuvincourt lies five miles due cast of Craonne and about 15 miles north west of Kheims. Coucy is five miles northwest of Kheims.)

Fads How, the millionaire "hobo" of St. Louis, argued against conscrip tion. Professor Edward Cheney o'f the Uni versity of Pennsylvania, called con scription "un-American and unneces sary," and pleaded for more liberal ex emption, clauses if the bill is passed.

C. Hamilton (United Press-stuff correspondent) New York, April 21. Dave Daven port, burly pitcher of the Browns, is wearing a Brownie uniform today to the surprise of several hundred thous and fans, who expected to mourn the death of one of the game's iron men when they read that he had dropped k !gun and received a wound in his huge 'frame above the waist. I Perfect physical condition probably !has helped him out considerably, far he declared a few davs ngo that he would be ready to help Fielder Jones' team this year just as much as ever. That statement probably is stretch ing it a little, for there are few men who can 'receive the wound that Dav enport did and live to tell about it. Ho can hardly be just asgood as ever. Davenport is weak and he walks with a limp, but the news that he was go ing to take a whirl at, baseball again this summer was considerably encour aging to tho Browns. it is possible Davenport will carry the marks of his accident all his life.

Prices of the general list, were heavy from the out set and narrow save where bear attacks were directed against a few individual stocks, a Manifestation of a rather spotty aspect. Trading in the first half of the session waa dull to a degree and appeared to represent adjustment of professional committments for the week end. There whs more or less short selling, but, the movement was not ex tensive. Bonds were slightly more imi ninted and prices in general were bet ter, with increasing firmness in tho convertible railroad issues. The standard issues yielded only frac, tionallv in must cases. Bethlehem Steel A lost four points or so, but elsewhere in the steel group price changes wer not extousive. United States Steel rul ed mostly around the. previous closing level.
