farmers, the tradesmen, the businessmen the mothers

the Misrepresentation of Senator Townsends record
... Therefore, we present for your information a
numbered list of certain charges which you may have
read heard together with the actual evidence Of dis

by deliberately misleading the people of this State.
s Il is a situation which the voters of Delaware
should condemn with all their power of expression.

True or False
An Appeal For Fair Play

THE right to vote is the sacred privilege of free
people
Under the Constitution the citizens Of Delaware
given the nalenabe privilege of voting for any can
didate of their own choosing.
But in any large body polite there are those forces
which seek to defeat the voting franchise Of free peo
pie Such action is evidenced in two ways: outright
fraud at the polls, and deliberate distortion Of the facts
which voters use in determining their vote.
In Senator John G. Townsend Jr the free people of
Delaware have given the nation really liberal Senator.
He has achieved more memberships on Senate
Committees than any other Senator, Republican or
Democrat He has given Delaware more powerful
voice in national affairs than states with fifty times
population
Senator Townsend has helped to write and sup
ported more than 100 appropriation bills. He helped
draft and supported more than $1OOOO OOOO 900 in ma
hona defense appropriation in single session Of Con-
gress He the only Senate Republican who voted for
the Excess Profits Tax to prevent milliOnaires.

The Fans Corner
The Swan Song of an Old Fan
 And His Progeny

We'll fans the series is over The defeat of the Hammon team by the Commercials "Wednesday night made the latter undefeated and undisputed champions. It is the first time in league history that any team has gone through the series undefeated.
 The other three teams came out exactly even all winning two and losing 4 of their 6 games.
 The Alaskan Women won cas- fly from the Married Women. Announcement as to the balance of Women's games and the mems trophy award will be made later. And now as promised confes- sions are in order.
 Primarily this column had as it's objective the stimulation of interest in baseball and increas- ed gate receipts. If I have failed in that objective put it down to lack of experience on the part of the writer.
 Being my first attempt at a thing of this kind my ideas on news value were of the foggiest. I had as my only guide that old gag about the city editor who in advising a cub reporter on news value said: If a dog bites a man that's nothing but if a man bites dog Son that's news"
 Now since the umpires in this series with admirable self con trol refrained from biting a fan or a player the application of even that sketchy bit of advice was denied me.
 But 1 was not left entirely alone and unaided. Much of the credit or blame if you prefer must go to Bill and "Stuby' Cameron without whose advice and able assistance the column would never have been attempt ed. (Did somebody say - "So What?").
 I must also take the blame for the inanities of the Young and the New Fan. These bits were in jected in the hope that we would get a rise" out of somebody. might add right here that the statements made and opinions ex pressed in this column were sell dom my convictions but merely to as the saying is start some thing" Since none of you arose to the bait I was driven finally to the dangerous extremity of ar guing with myself-a condition I am told that is sometimes fatal and often caused by missing too many boats.
 The committee on baseball have asked me to extend their thanks to all those who took part in making this successful series To the players and their manag- CTS to the door keepers score keepers, the urnpires and their keepers.
 And now 1 want to say that if I have trodden on any toes or injured any feelings in this col umn please accept with this last contribution my humbleSt apolog ies. If on the other hand any of you have been interested, enter tained or amused by these liter ary antics then I shall feel that this space and the time of we who are responsible was not en- tirely wasted. And so to the Young, the New and the Old Fan write Finis.
