and
Navy Team To
Play Manteo 9
Perrytown Saturday a II d
Navy Team Sunday

Manteo, July 30 This week.
end will be loaded for the Manteo
baseball team. Starting with Per-
rytown Saturday, the locals will
encounter one of the strongest
teams on it's schedule this sea-
son. These teams have played
twice before this year, each win
ming on it's home ground. The
game this time is to be played at
Perry own, SO the Manteo boys
had better look out. However,
Man co will probably take a more
complete team this time than it
did on the last invasion there, and
expects TO come home with win.
Several Sundays ago Manteo beat
PerrytoWn here, for the first time
in quite a while. And in winning
the local aggregation didn't in"t
.uge out, but took a five to one
win. 1t really should have becn
five to nothing, as an error turn
cd in the only PerrytoWn marker.
A thriller seems in store there
Saturday.
Sunday the local boys will en-
tertain the strong Naval Air Sta
ton aggregation, the only team
holding an unavenged decision
over them this season. Out OF the
four games whose scores have been
wrong for the Manteo team, only
this team has not been later beat
en- by them. And the home boys
are raring to get at them and SO
avenge every decision against
them this season.
In the previous game, the Navy
nine took off hard earned twelve
inning win, which was anybody's
game until the final stanza. There
was very little difference in the
looks of either team. Since this
game the local nine has greatly
improved and is really expected
and expecting to avenge that de-
feat.
Sammy Kee, local ace right
handler, will probably be on the
mound facing the Air Station bat
ters. In his last two starts Kee has
shown fine form, deserving a shut
out over Perrytown and shutting
the Yard Craft team from the
Norfolk Navy Yard out seven inn
ings, beating them ten to three.
Jessup will probably be on first
base, with Tillett on second, Bas-
night on third and Hudson on
shortstop for the locals Sunday.
The outfield will probably be COM
posed of Perry, White and Kellogg
with Davis behind the bat.

In 0rphanage
Continued from Page One)

But let Ruth tell her own story ::
My father died in 1923. He
had been a member Of the Junior
Order for 81 years. Mr.. Bascom
Sawyer, then the recording Secre-
tary of the Worth Bagley Council
No. so, persuaded mother to send
four Of us to the Junior Order
orphanage at Lexington. On
January 10, 1880, Mr.. Provost.
then the minister of the Newland
Baptist Church, carried four of
us to the orphanage. My smallest
brother was not old enough to go
at that time.
Il graduated this year along
with II others in my class When
I left the orpnanage I had been
there seven and one-half years.
1t seems more like home to me
than anywhere else. 1t has all
the modern conveniences, With
it's own laundry, dairy, farm, pow
er plant, water plant, school,
church, swimming pool, gym
nasium ,cannery, cold storage,
sewing room, handicraft shop,
printing press, photograph shop
and library, and organizations like
the glee club, orchestra and band,
it seems like a community in it
self.
The children do most of the
work under supervision. They go
to school four hours a day and
work at different trades and tasks
for three hours. Our Superin-
tendent, matrons and teachers
were our guardians No other
school has a chance to give such
thorough training to their chill
dren, because they only have
charge of the child's home life.
in school. The orphanage has
charge OF the child's hom ellfe,
school life and religious life Thus
| the Child'S character Is HloIilueu
in each phase of it's life by the
orphanage
There are no denominations
in the orphanage church, each
child following his own creed.
What better training could a
mother want for her children
than for them to be brought up as
useful, Christian citizens OF our
country?
THE Junior Order is doing a
wonderful work through its or
phanages and it is greatly appre-
ciated by all Of US who have been
there"

fered a fractured skull last
May, Manager Mickey Coch-
rane donned his uniform to-
day to direct the Detroit Tigers

Though declining to discuss
the accident, COchrane slid he
felt "a bit groggy" but expect

States Junk Depleted

Wilson, July 20. -IU.H- Louis
Arner, local junk dealer and one
of the largest dealers in North
Carolina, believes that the supply
of junk in this state is virtually
exhausted.
Arner, who has seen carload af-
ter carload of scrap metal head
from his yards to port terminals,
believed the demand has exhaust
ed the supply. He estimated $3,-
100000 had been paid to- North
Carolinians for junk since last
october.
Despite the hike in prices paid
for scrap metal, Amer said, the
supply was quickly diminishing.
1T was picked up in fields, on
home junk piles and on the
street." he said, describing early
Junk deliveries to him. Nov we
are almost sold out and can't get

Yankees Defeat Bro,uns 80; Cubs Edge Out Giants

Newport, r. l., July 30.-U.R)-
The plump little gray-mustached
man in the white suit yelled, AL
right; let's go; march," and the
procession of men in dinner jack
cts and women in evening gowns
marched across the brilliantly
lighted lobby of the Viking ho-
tel-from the reception room at
one end to the central banquet
hall.
The lobby was crowded, and on
lockers jostled one another and
craned their necks as the nota-
bles paraded past. The marchers
were in merry mood. They reflect
ed the spirit of the occasion. This
was the night when the city OF
Newport was banqueting 7. o. M.
Sopwiin, Britain's challenger for
the Americas Cup, and Harold S.
Vanderbilt, the American defend
er.
Sopwith marched past a slen-
der middle-aged man with grey
hair and somewhat prominent
nose, chatting with his attractive
wife.
Mike" Vanderbilt was laugh
ing and talking with his handsome
wife in the cream-satin gown, as
if he hadn't a care in the world.
He seemed unaware that his de-
Tending sloop, the S500,000 Ran
ger, had just been beaten for the
first time, and by two other yachts
-Endeavour 1st and Yankee.
After 13 straight victories, since
it was launched earlier this year
at Bath, Me-, Vanderbilt'S beauti-
full White-hulled craft had lost a
race. And just two short days be-
fore the big international cup SER
les was to open, with Ranger pit
ted against SopWith's newer and
faster Endeavour End.
The lobby-lookers crowded in to
get better view of Mike" Voices
could be heard saying, That's
Vanderbilt there" He'll win again
Can't stop him Yeah-sure
he's the best skipper in the world,
nobody can beat him I'll put
my dough on him!
The on-lookers laughed off the
Rangers defeat because it wasn't
a true race because of faltering
winds because of this or that -
but most of all because the chips
weren't down."
And as you stood there listen
ing, you realized suddenly that you
were watching the progress of a
man who had captivated public
confidence more completely, per-
haps, than any other champion.
Here was a man who simply could
not lose-because of his keen in
tellect. Nautical knowledge, iron
will and answering courage.
These attributes insulated him
against defeat, the public believes,
although Americas Cup competi-
ton is the biggest and most eX-
pensive gamble in all sports.
Mike" and his Ranger will be
gambling with wind, weather and
shifting currents and-with the
unknown speed and maneuver-
ability of blue-hulled Endeavour
II.
When the best four -out-o -of-sev-
en- series starts tomorrow the chips
will be down and Vanderbilt will
be fighting under the greater
pressure. He knows he face the
possibility of being the first de-
fender ever to lose the cup since
the classic originated back in
1851. Defeat would be a stunning
blow to United States sailing SUI
premacy. But he won under the
same pressure in 1880 with En-
terprise and in '34 with Rainbow.
His brilliant performances in both
competitions convinced Mixes
public that he cannot lose. He is
the ultimate in champions.
