OBSERVATIONS FROM
THE BLEACHERS
BY O. L. MILAN

Wonder what kept Milo
Leon, the once-famous local
baseball player, from showing up
at the ball game last Sunday be-
tween the. Pirates and Key West
Conchs? Leon was supposed to
have appeared in the Conch uni
form and on the coaching line for
Hamlin's bombers. He was also
to clown little for the fans, but
they were disappointed for there
was no Leon.
On the other hand, Amado
Chino Hernandez was there
playing first base for the Pirates
Hernandez got no chance to inn
press the fans with the stick but
it was no fault of his as he was
walked three times in succession,
Only onceTwas he allowed to hit,
This was in the seventh inning
when Robert Bethel grooved one
across the pan and the mighty
little Chino cracked out a line
drive to rightfield which was
nabbed by outfielder John Torres
somewhere in the neighborhood
of three hundred feet from home
plate. 1t was terrific drive and
sensational catch!
Cheta Baker, the former boxer
who once held the flyweight
championship along the east coast
of Florida, is making a strong
comeback as ball player. Bak-
er, who was three years ago one
of the best infielders in this city,
slipped to the extent that the
Trojans released him. In the
game between the Blue Sox and
Conchs two weeks ago Cheta field
ed brilliantly at third base and
las Sunday he was the star OF
the Pirate onch fracas at second
base. Baker is now member
of the Conchs.
At a local confab a very en-
thusiastic baseball follower pre-.
diets that Rene Machin and Lucille
Gonzalez will soon be wearing
Pirate uniforms. Both of these
boys are members of the Key West
Conchs. The general opinion has
the rumor as a true. one but we
fail to believe. that. Lucilo, |
founder of the Key West team
will ask to be released. In the
case of Machin it may be possible
that Rene will try his luck with
another club.
Earl Adams will 'fsic" his Tro.
jams, at Ray Bush's Pirates Sun
day in the second game of a regu'
lar Monroe County League con.
test. This is going to be another
hot game for the Court Yare
Park boys are also after the sec
ond-haif pennant. With the Buc:
and Conchs tied for first plac,
position there's no doubt tina
Bush will use the strongest line
up available in an effort to win
/ Conchs also will take no chance
against Blue Sox and Roy Ham
lin viii trout out his fun lineuI
for the first game of the double
header.

Arna Community In
An Interesting Meet

The main feature of the meeting OF
the Arna Community club at its meet
ing on April 4, was an interest
ing talk by Max McMillin, county
agent, on the best uses of soil in that
part of the county. He stressed par
ticularly alfalfa and other tame hay
tame pastures, good dairy cows and
potatoes. Adrian Shute of Duxbury
and Rev. A. E. Mclean of Markville
sang solos for the musical part of the
program.
The club voted to have a cleanup
day for the community and April
% was suggested. The plan is to
urge everyone to clean up their own
premises before that date and then
on the 22nd vacant lots and unin-
habited places get their cleaning
in a COMMUNICATIVE cooperative eff
fort. Some other projects suggested
but not acted on were community
play day, cemetery improvement
landscaping the school grounds, the
establishment of tennis court and
a community fair in the fall.

Skids,
Crashes Into Wagon

A collision occurred on Highway
81 Az miles north of Hinckley on
Friday, April 7, at $50 a. m. when
Mabel D. Holds and daughter of Du-
luth, driving 1888 Buick sedan,
hit wagon and team which was
driven by James E. McDermeit, II, of
Sandstone. The car struck the wagon
from the rear as it attempted to pass
in the path of an approaching car. A
slight layer of snow on the pavement
prevented the car from stopping
quickly enough with the result that
it skidded, struck the wagon and slid
into the ditch. The car was some
what damaged but the occupants
were not injured.
Young McDermeit was taken to a
doctor at Hinckley for first aid after
suffering from bruises and shock.
He was then taken home. The horses
were not injured.

Land Clearing Will
Be Demonstrated

Plans are being made to have land
clearing demonstration in Pine county
in the near future, according to Max
McMillin, county agent. The land
clearing job will be performed by
what is commonly known as bull
dozer or bull-grader attached to a
big tractor.
Demonstrations were put on last
fall at Ironwood, Mich, and as re-
suit of this demonstration, st. Louis,
Beltrami, Koochiching and several
other counties are clearing land by
this new method. According to what
is being done in other counties, land
in Pine county can be cleared for SIS
an acre, although some of it would
cost more and some less.
The general public is invited to
these demonstrations which will be
in about 10 days. Following dem
onstrations in other counties last fall,
enough work was lined up to keep
one of these machines busy for two
or three years.

Fire Does Damage
Near Markville

A hay stack belonging to Ray Chip
man of Markville, caught fire Tues
day of last week and from there
spread to the ice house and garage
of E. j. Steinbring which was COM
pletely destroyed. A strong south
east wind kept the fire from the other
buildings of the Steinbrings, but
threatened the barn and garage of the
Chipmans. Everybody turned out and
with much carrying of water and
judicious handling of same, kept the
fire confined to the buildings already
too far gone to save.

Son OF Pioneer
AskovLady WEEDS
Anker Petersen Takes as
His Bride A Clenwood
Young Woman.

A wedding ceremony which COM
pletely surprised Askov friends was
consummated in the Danebod parson-
age at Tyler Wednesday of last week,
when Rev. Holger Strandskov united
as man and wife Mr.. Anker H. Peder-
sen of this village, and Miss Blanche
Anderson of Glenwood. The double
ring ceremony was used and the at
tendants of the couple were Mr.. and
Mrs. M. G. Petersen, brother-in-law
and sister of the bride. Present at
the ceremony and at a wedding din
ner which followed at the Petersen
home were few relatives, including
the brides parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
Alfred Anderson, and her sister, Miss
Ards, all of Glenwood.
In the evening 40 guests were en-
tertained at a reception arranged in
honor of the newlyweds. Among the
guests from out of town were Mrs.
Emma Howe and E. v. Johnson of
Arco; and Mr.. and Mrs. Sigurd Peder-
sen of Ruthton.
From Pioneer Askov Family.
Mr.. Petersen is the son of Mrs.
L. G. Petersen of Askov, and has
operated farm here for several years
until recently when he procured a
position as caretaker and gardener
of private estate near Webster, Wis,
where he and his bride will reside
Mr.. Pedersen's position will enable
him to work at the profession of his
choice, having been trained as a
horticultural and landscape architect.
His father, the late L. c. Petersen,
was not only one of the early Danish
settlers of Tyler, but was one of the
founders of the Askov community

Many friends here and elsewhere
will wish for Mr.. and Mrs. Petersen
a long and contented married life.

Hospital Service
Is Discussed At
Askov Meeting
Commercial Club and Fire
Department Sponsor A
Movement to Get Benefit.

At public meeting, well attended
Department on Monday night dis
cussed the merits of group hospitaliza-
ton for the community. DR.. E. Irvine
Parson, secretary of the organization
introduced the subject and Peter
Klein, director of the Minnesota Hos
pital Service Association, presented
information as to the operation and
benefits of the group.
In introducing the subject and the
speaker, DR.. Parson said that at some
time each one of us is faced with
the need of disqualification and that
not every one is able to budget funds
for such need. Therefore it is seen
that any plan which will offer ade-
Quate service will be worth discus
sion. Methods to solve the problem
DIR. Parson said, have been numer-
Gus, but very few have been work
able, and so far the average person
has had to 60 it alone. He advocated
such plan as being good move
because every patient can have q
fuller diagnosis and better care if he
or she can be taken to hospital Each
one should be given free choice OF
physician in time of illness, DR.. Par
son said.
Duluth Man Talks.
Peter Klein of Duluth, director OF
the Minnesota Hospital Service Asso-
citation, began his discussion of the
subject by telling of the origin in
1929 of the work and its efforts al
getting in operation in the Twin Cities
and Duluth. Now every third person
is protected under the plan in those
cities. There are two member-hos-
pitfalls in Duluth, nine in st. Paul and
10 in Minneapolis.
Mr.. Klein said that the member
hospitals, since they guarantee serv-
ice to members of the Association
lost about $1,000 the first year OF
operation and $500 the second, but
since that time surplus has been
established and this has been used
to increase the benefits.
