You've got to hand it to Mickey
Cochrane! With his team rated
as a second division club before
the season started, Mickey slowly
but surely battled with and en-
eouraged his men on to the top
of the fight and has kept them
there. Yankee rO0ters dispel this

With the formation Of might

chances for the return of real

stronger daily. Fans have been
anxious for long time to follow

as they did when The Citizen,
Piitchnrti's Funeral Home and Del
Monte were staging their terrific
battles for the city championship.
Those were the nights when the
cheers. whoops. shouting and what

WHO'LL LEAD?

Most teams having only fifty
more games to play, the race in
the major leagues is fast drawing
to a close, but who among the
most astute followers of the game
can say with certainty which two
teams will play in the World
Series? Nobody dares to. With
the Tigers and Yankees switching
top position every day or two. and
the Giants and Cubs staging a
sizzling race in the National
League, my guess is the riddle will
not be solved until the last few
games.

Editor, The Citizen:
see by the papers that the
Federal Government has taken
over Key West. The War De
partment has consistently refused
to approve any plans for the ex-
tension of development of Chap
man Field as an airport. Under
the circumstances would it not be
logical to develop part of Key
West as an army airport?
