one infield post-first base. Almost
automatically, Lou Gehrig belongs.
Then, this year, Hank Greenberg is
demanding consideration and so is
Zeke Bonura. Chicago fans would
have voted heavily for Bonura, and
perhaps gained him a place that 9TH
erWise would be denied. The chances
are that Bonura will be outvoted by
the managers, who will name Green
berg and Gehrig, a right handed hit
ter and a left-hander.
The rest of the infield voting ap-
parently would have been cut and
dried. Who else but Charlie Geh-

The second Of the great COM

We desire to write about, is Con-
necticut. Connecticut was one OF
the original thirteen colonies later
to become states, of our country.
II is located at the southernmost
tip of what is known as the New
England states. And is but a short
distance from that large city, New
York.
Connecticut has two nicknames,
both of equal Importance and use.
1t is often known as the "Consti-
tuition State" This is because
Connecticut was the first common
wealth to adopt q state constitu-
ton in our country. The man re-
sponsible for spreading the idea
throughout the state was the Rev
Thomas Hooker, who mentioned
the plan in one of his sermons
The state is also known. as the
Nutmeg State by some.
The state seal is oval in shape
gold in color, and has q very
unique design within it. On the
outer edge Of the seal is foune
these words in Latin, "Sigillun
Republican, Connecticutensis." A.
the lower edge of the design il

Latin, "Qui Transtulit Sustinet:'
The state flower is the mountain
laurel. The state flag is beautiful
in color, a deep blue background
with solid gold border. In the cen
ter is the same distinguishing de
sign found on the state seal, will

Transtulit Sustinet."
There is no one particular ma
