Stdrdon Due
For Triio0f
Veterans
By GARRETT WATERS


Baseball prospects may not be
as bright at Central High School
this year as in seasons Of the past.
but the fact remains, Coach Jack
Ray has three veterans on hand
who promise to reach the top OF
the ladder by June.
Number one performer Is Joe
Moran, outfielder. The other two
are Arnold Heft, little southpaw
pitcher, and Angelo Valenza.
midget second baSeman.
Moran was third sacker for the
Mt. Pleasanters last year. But
Coach Ray, seeing the promise OF
the lad as q hitter and Speedster,
decided to shift him to the outer
gardens this spring, and to date
has not been sorry.
Ray goes into raptures Wnen
talking Of Moran. And he's quite
right on the youth. For besides
being a dependable hitter and q
speedster afoot, the lad possesses
O capable arm and a keen base
bah sense of knowing how to play
the outfielG.
Says Ray:
"MOran was q candidate for
third base when he first came
70 Central and was given the
Job because of his fine arm.
But somehow he never fitted into
the position smoothly. Then
late last spring the thought hit
both Of IS that the Outfield
would be just the place. He's
our centerfielder now, and I'm
thinking a pretty good one"
The youngster demonstrated his
promise in Central's first game
last week against Mount st.
Joseph, of Baltimore, which the
BaltiInoreans won, 5 to 4. He
vent after fly balls with pleasing
ease and grace, threw well to the
bases on hits to his sector and hit
Q home run over the stadium wall
In center field.
Size Helps Heft
Arnold Heft was q substitute
pitcher in 1885. This was largely
because Of his size. which was any
thing but hefty for high school
hurler.
But this season, Arnold has
filled out nicely and last week
hurled very well with the excep-
ton Of one inning when Mount
st. Joseph scored four Of their
runs on a homer with the bases
loaded.
Heft's added weight has helped
his fast ball while it also has
aided him in putting a little more
zip on his curve. He should do
well in the coming interhigh
series.
Angelo Valenza did not play
many games last season because
Of ineligibility. But he's making
up for lost time this spring by
keeping on the straight and mar.
row path and playing an accept
able game at second base.
ValenZa is the Mt. PleasanterS'
lead-off man. Coach Ray planted
him in the spot because Of his
dwarf build and because he has
the ability to wait out the
pitcher.
The little performer really
Stands up there" He doesn't
stick his foot in the bucket as
most school players, but wades
into the ball with the confidence
Of a big Lacquer. He too, should
fare well in the coming series.
The remainder Of the Central
team is still uncertain. Fellows
like Joe Feuz, outfielder, and
Don Zones, shortstop, boast pro-
mise, but they need q few more
games under their belts to step
into the class Of the veteran trio,
Moran, Heft and Valenza.

One of the most important subjects
to be considered by the Town Council
if the present administration is re-
turned to power May will be the
proposed extension Of the corporate
limits. This is one of the pet hobbies
of Mayor Douglas NJ. Blandford and
his associates and it is generally re-
garded as one worth the consideration
of every man and woman owning
property adjacent to the present cor
poration line.
1t has been pointed out that many
property owners could avail them
selves of better sanitary conditions,
for, in truth, the increased new build
ing construction on the very edge of
the corporate limits makes it difficult
for adequate sanitary facilities to be
realized.
AS one member of the Town Coun-
Gil pointed out yesterday, ''it will
probably be only few years before
the Metropolitan area creeps up to

mode of operation. Water mains are
now extended beyond the corporate
limits, but while we are giving SER
vice, we have no authority to collect
taxes for the use of this water. About
100 houses outside the corporation are
getting service without paying taxes.
The same town official pointed out
that the list of delinquent water rents
has materially decreased in the past
four years. Approximately fifty are in
arrears today.
In the construction and maintenance
of this local water system, several
Maryland towns having excellent
water service were visited from time
to time by members of the Town
Council and it is generally believed
that Rockville is surpassed by no 9TH
er municipality in the quality of it's
water and the character of it's dis
