New Brighton, Staten Island..... A photo of 21-year-old Bertha Kaplan, of Tompkinsville..... who was found stabbed through the heart in her father's automobile near her home early today. In the car with the body was Joseph Karpicki, young naval reservist who had been keeping company with Miss Kaplan for the past five years. He, too, was stabbed and is in a critical condition in New Brighton Hospital. Police say Karpicki stabbed the girl in a fit of jealous rage and then turned the knife upon himself. The sailor is held on a charge of homicide.

Umpire Disputes Umpire's Decision, and that really is something for the baseball book, because here is one case where the umpire can't kick out a man for arguing. The strange incident took place at Washington after Umpire-in-Chief John Quinn (right), had ruled that Jake Early, Washington catcher, had interfered with Bob Kennedy of the Chicago White Sox, the batter. Umpire Bill McGowan, working at third base, differed with Quin, this being the photographic evidence. Ken Chase, Washington pitcher, is at the left, while First-baseman Zeke Bonura is laughing at his argument. With his back to the camera, but undoubtedly enjoying the act, is Jimmy Dykes, Chicago manager, who has had plenty of arguments with umpires.
