ROCKVILLE
SOFTBALL LEAGUE
PepcO Wins First Series

Il NpOO w HIS 1ISC OGIlCS
At the completion of the first
series the Lawyers and Pepco
teams were tied for first place,
each team having lost only one
game. On Tuesday night, July Is,
Pepco beat Lawyers with score
of 5 to a in their play-off game.
The winning team of the first
half schedule will play the winner
of the second half three game
series to determine the league
champions for 1941. The 1871
champions will fall heir to a tro-
ply that will be presented to them
by John Haley, prominent Rock
vile restauranter. If the same
team should win both the first and
second halves, it will, of course be
declared the champion, and will
play a three game series with an
<AAA-OSeS4 ICdlu W NC SSpCCLCu IIOUl
the other seven teams.
In preparing the schedule for tine
second series, the league officials
decided to schedule games from
Monday to Saturday nights, inclu-
sive. In other words there will be
a game each week day night, ex-
cept when cancelled on account of
bad weather. Postponed games
will be played in the order of THAR
postponement at the end of the
regular schedule.
This action was taken since it
will enable the league to close two
weeks earlier, and will also be a
help to the softball fans, to the ex-
tent that they will know there will
be game every night, weather
permitting.

The Editor,
MONTGOMERY COUNTY SENTINEL,
Rockville, Maryland
Dear Sir:
Here's a little poem in regard
to recent press reports concern
ing Lieut. Gen. Ben Lear who
seem to be we'll established in
the public doghouse as a result of
his worriment over how a passing
soldier should treat a golf-play-
ing lady in shorts or something:
The Gallant King Lear
A golf-playing General named
Lear,
Became highly incensed at a cheer,
When train-riding recruits;
Started Gliding some cutes,
While the General was putting
quite near.
Then this General whose first
name is Benny,
Dished out the punishment
plenty
He re-routed the train,
Again and again,
And the boys all marched miles
upon many.
Now the soldiers all think Ben's
the bunk,
And from the strafng of critics
Lear's sunk;
While the draftees drink beer,
To the gallant King Lear;
The Army's most pluperfect punk.

Unions Win Boom Town
 Rent Strike
Rents Reduced 2O%o After N. J. Tenants Strike
 For Seven Weeks

PATERSON, N. J-The biggest rent strike yet conducted in a defense boom town forced the Menco Realty Co.,, operator of Y ancient tenements, to reduce proposed rent increase by 209o and to improve the houses.
 For seven weeks none of the 116 families in the tenements paid any rent. The strike was conducted by the United Tenants League, made up largely of members of the Textile Workers Union and of various AFL unions. Shortly after the strike started the company began dispossess proceed ings against five U.TL. leaders, but later backed down.
 RENT BOARD HELPS
 The settlement was worked out by the Paterson Rent Commis- sion, which was appointed by Mayor William P. Furrey. The commission ordered the company to reduce by $l proposed month- ly increases of $2.5O to $3.2O and to start work within 30 days on the improvements ordered by the State Tenement Supervision Commission.

Three very important things the American housewife can do to keep her family well fed In the face or rLipg food prices.
 Fir,,t she must realize that it Is her duty to maintain the quality of GIlt needed fer good health de- gpItc crisis conditions In the world only healthy men and women VIII nave the stamina to build up our national dcfcnSes, If the costs ol n fayorite food, bcefsteak or lamb, for example, SpIrals beyond her budget reach, she must begin to EulGy leaflets, bceks and reports issued by government, both ied- oral and state, on the use Of other cheaper foods with equal nutri- Lion.
 NEWSPAPERS HELP
 Cook books and newspaper food columns offer her guidance In the skill she must have to use new or different recipes in her family menus. She can learn to use cheese, eggs, dried beans and fish more frequently If the cost Of meat goes too high, These arc good proteins and are abundant and reasonable, Cooked well and com bincd into interesting menus, they will supply her family with excel lent nourishment, interest and q feeling of being well fed at Q com paratively low cost. In other words, she must learn to reconstruct her family diet as part of her joo in national defense.
 Why should prices rise? That's q question the housewife should ask every grocer or butcher every time he tells her coffee or sugar or bread or anything has jumped a few cents. That's the second duty.
 AVOID BOARDING
 The third duty of the American housewife is to avoid panic the kind of panic which starts her hoarding food. Hoarding immediate ly runs up prices. Tn 1889, house. wives quickly created an artificial shortage Of sugar through their owll unfounded panic, based on ignor- ance Of the sugar market. As a result the price of sugar jumped overnight, but 1t took months tc get 1t back to normal.
 As Q result American housewives spent 40 million dollars more foi

Furthermore, waShableS solve the budget problems of the girl who has to have a country as well as a city wardrobe. They permit her to have n good selection of gay colorful slacks and shirts which, although well tailored, are not expensive, They permit her enough shorts, bath ing suits, golf ant' tennis dresses to sec her through any amount Of week -ending in llne style.
 New and smart in the collec- ton of washable summer fashions arc coveralls-for fishing and sail- Ing. These were inspired by the uniforms of garage mechanics and are one-piece with sct-in belts be- tween shirts and trousers.
 Cotton corduroy sports coats are a boon to the budget-minded. A wen-designed corduroy swag- ger--in red, sandy beige, royal blue or gray-may be worn over everything In summer ward robe, from slack suits to evening dresses. And corduroy is easy to wash and press back into shape. ACCESSORIES ADD
 EXPENSIVE NOTE
 A short jacket of snowy white pique, matching pique gloves and an equally-eaSy-to-wash pique lapel flower comprise an ideal accessory set to wear to the office with dark sheer and printed rayon dresses. A f,lll-length evening coat of white pique or one of the new cotton mesh materials is chic over summer dresses. A hip-length one, however, can be worn over day dresses as we'll
 Perfect for golf are blue and white, brown and white, or gray and white striped seersucker dresses. These arc shirtwaister types, of course, with gored or pleated shorts and long shirts which will stay tucked in, and plenty of tennis dresses, both sleeveless and long-sleeved

 Whether she takes her cotton plain, printed or electrically em- broidered, the girl who has decided to wear washables for work, shop ping, play and dancing makes business of learning how to wash them. She carefully follows waSh- Ing instructions on the tags.
 If the instructions advise use Of cool water, she doesn't use luke warm water. She never hangs col- orcd clothes In bright sunshine. She never pins them to the line With clothes pins. Her clothes are put on shoulder shaped hangers to dry and they are patted and finger pressed Into shape while still damp on the hanger.
 This makes ironing easier and i' Insurance against retching and sag. glng.
