bration is to make every man,
woman and child in America
aware of BASEBALL. You've
got to do more than reach your
current hot fans. You've got to
rekindle that pleasant glow of
days gone-by in the breast of the
old timers; you've got to initiate
the youngsters into the fine points
of the game; you've got to instill
understanding of and apprecia-
ton for baseball into Mrs. Amer
lea and her children and grand
children.
You've got to make your town
baseball conscious" and keep it
that way throughout the 1889 sea-
son. First you'll need a local
Centennial Committee, but don't
organize it yourself. Ask the
mayor, or your towns leading
citizen, to do it. Have him call
meeting of the outstanding citi-
zens for the purpose OF discussing
and acting upon plans for your
city's participation in the Gen.
tennial Celebration. Do that now.
And get a head start on nearby
communities. At the meeting
have the temporary chairman ex-
plain briefly that this is Basebalps
Centennial-that other cities and
towns throughout the country are
going to celebrate this anniver-
sary with real civic pride. Have
your local Chamber of Commerce
representative point out to the
assembled citizens the value in
actual dollars and cents to the
local merchants of a Centennial
Celebration that viii draw hun
dreds to the game on the particu-
lar day that it will take place.

Well supply you with the bat

Says Socialized Medicine
Wouldn't Hurt Doctors
tBy Associated press)

MEMPHIS, Tenn, May r.
Socialized medicine would ma
terially affect neither the num-
Der nor the income of private
physicians in the opinion of DR..
C. w. Hyman, dean of the Uni
versity of Tennessee Medical col
lege.
1t would be so "perfunctory
and inefficient" Dr.. Hyman
says, that the demand for private
medical attention would be lit
tie diminished, if at all.
If it should come, he continued,
there are likely to be as many
doctors in private practice as
now, doing less work for about
the same average income. There
will be a sharp demand for SUBJ
stantial increase in the total
number OF doctors in order to
staff federal clinics"
