mains practical dead heat as a
result of yesterdays games, with

9 to 6, then steaming in with a
handy 81 victory behind the four

Dodgers in victory over the
Pirates, to 2, the game being
decided in the 10th inning by
three hits.

out of their abbreviated losing
streak with a 10 to 3 win over
Detroit. Pitcher Sundra controll-
ed the Tigers in good shape, al

gained on the White Sox in their
fight for third position in the
Junior circuit by defeating the
Bosox, z to /, Hudlin pitching
seventh ball, while Chicago lost
to Philadelphia again, failing to
overcome a three-run first-in-
ming jolt engineered chiefly by

.CONCHS DEPART
FOR MIAMI GAME
EXPECT LARGE CROWD or
LOCAL FANS TO
SEE CONTEST
BY URIC cWYNN. yR.

Leaving this afternoon and to-
morrow morning for Miami will
be Roy Hamlin's Key West
Conchs for their game with the
Dade County All-Stars at Miami
Field tomorrow night.
A large crowd of Key West
baseball enthusiasts is expected
to make this trip to see the local
boys in action against outside
competition. The last time the
Conchs played the All-Stars a
crowd of 5000 saw the game.
This was the largest attendance
at a baseball game in Miami in
number of years.
The Conehs are seeking re-
venge from the Miami boys, who
downed them 81 the first time
they crossed bats. With the Gas
house Gang in good shape and
Robert Bethel tossing the pill to
Cyril Griffin behind the plate,
the Conchs are said to stand a
very good chance of walking
away with the winning honors.
Making the trip with the Conchs
is John Offutt, athletic director
for the High School, who will
make his second appearance to
the public in a Conch uniform.
Offutt, who batted 1926 in SO
games with the New Smyrna
Club, is to fill the centerfield
position on the Conch team.
Starting lineup for the Conchs
will be:
Mario Pena, 1b;
William Gates, 2b;
Esmond Albury, 3b;
Armando Acevedo, SIS;
Cyril Griffin, c;

KEY WEST IN DAYS GONE BY
Happenings Here Just Ten Years Ago Today As Taken
From The Files OF The Citizen

In making his formal announce
ment today as candidate for the
office of mayor of Key West, Ar
thur Gomez states that he real
ICES the responsibilities connect
ed with the job but at the same
time theaoffice needs a man pos
sessing the qualifications of
strong leadership and unfaltering
courage. The great number of
people out of employment and
the necessity of new and in
creasing payrolls are things
which must be tackled with en-
ergy by the new administration
and further it is his opinion that
he possesses the qualifications
and if elected he will put in eff
feet the necessary movements to
make this come about.

HERE'S NEWS FOR COTTON coNsunERsl


Shirt collars that labeled "shrunk" or "pre-
shrunk" nowadays must live up to such claims or
there'1l be mischief to pays
New Trade Practice Rules issued by the Federal
Trade coi ssion, require that labels all cotton
fabrics and manufa ctured cotton goods making
about shrinage must specify what they when
they say "slrrmk" "pre-shrunk" reports the con-
Divi sion Of the AAA.
Issued after several years Of controversy. the
rules legally forbid any advertising, labels, or
sales atements that deceive mislead consumers
regarding the amount Of cotton goods will shrink.
"Shromk and pre-shr,mk may be used to describe
cotton goods, if, whom they used, a sta tement
guaranteeing maximum shrinlage accompanies them
writes the GUIDE Thus, nanufa ctarer may label
garments 'These goods have been shrunk (or pre-
shr1nk to the extent that residual shrinkage will
not exceed when tested in accordance wi th ecog-
nized and approved standards tests' the
mont may simply says dual inlage
1%; or 2%.
"Residual shrinkage simply that while the
garment has been shrnk. it may suffer addi ional
shrinkage to the extent stated.
"sucl words full shromk' 'shrinkproof' 'non-
shr rinlable, and similar terms are banned if the
goods advertised. sold or labeled contain any
pacity to shrink.
Look at labels carefully when you Guy cotton
goods in the future. Those that contain shrinlage
guarantees will be your most reliable protection
gainst shrinlage. Manufac t1rers who DON'T claim
their goods 'pre-shrnk' or 'shr,ls are not af-
fected by the rules.
cotton goods guaranteed not to shrink than
2% meet most consumer needs, if the percentage is
greater, buy larger sizes yard goods.
"If the goods garments don't live up the La
bel shrinkage guarantee, do this: Complain to the
store where you made your purchase; then report the
tigation."
