a hitting slump. You made three
hits today. And THAT'S what
started this fight"
Rival pitchers also can raise hot
with a ball cluo. Take George
Mogridge. for example He was 4
tall. lean. crooked armed fellow
who ft-handed his way through
10 years or so with New York and
Washington.
George never threw two pitches
with the same speed or delivery
He was always paving around the
rubber, stepping in and out. and
he had no speed. He depended
solely on off stride pitching.
Mogridge made the old Tigers
crazy. And with so little real stuff
as he had he used TO beat us.
The important thing was, after
facing Mogridge, we never could
hit ANYBODY for about a week
Our timing and rhythm were sad.

More News, Geod or Bad

Philadelphia RecordD The Army and Navy departments are to be con graduated for releasing details of the Battle of Mid way.
 We were given the thrilling "fish-eye view" of the battle as told by Ensign C. H, Gay Then we given details salient points of the battle disclosed through interviews with pilots re- turning to General Emmon's headquarters, and through statements by Admiral Nimitz.
 But another action started the same day of which we have heard almost nothing--the naval-air battle of the Aleutan Islands begun with the attack on Dutch Harbor
 The Navy issued two ccmmuniques last week which told little. Then there report from Canada, later denied that there was third attack on Dutch Harbor Last Sunday Admiral King said the situation around Alaska obscure"
 On Wednesday naval spokesman" said that of the inhabited islands or rocks in the Aleu- tians 'are troubled with uninvited visitors at this time"
 It is of course, possible that authorities at Dutch Harbor on an island, are afraid to the radio to communicate with Washington for fear Jap planes still in the neighborhood would use it as beam
 But we believe no military information of value would be given the enemy by accounts of battle started more than a week ago
 Let's have the news whether it's good or bad. The American people can take it.

 Men and women of the Central Interior have faith in this country but too often their hopes and dreams have been built up only to be shattered. So today they merely raise their eyebrows and say quietly. T hope that is so, and something of it."

HOROSCOPE "The stars incline
 but do not con,pe"
FRIDAY. JUNE 26

Good and evil portents are reac in the horoscope for today. Aviation and labor are under adverse sway
 HEART AND HOME: This should be a time most favorable for unity of purpose among the people ol the nation, Clearer views regarding the magnitude of the war and the obligation to concentrate upon work for victory will be general in the United States. By Autumn the seers believe there will be complete. de- votion to the. cause of democracy Every heart and every hand will be dedicated to the preservation of lib erty. This means supreme sacrifice
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS: The per ceptible lift in business matters this month emphasizes the deter mination of merchants and man ufacturers to subordinate old ideas of profit to the general good. The aspect for the summer quarter which finds the Sun and Jupiter in the sixth house is most fortunate. The configuration rules industry labor, agriculture and the fighting forces. Imitation will be consistently fought by the Government. .s
 INTERNATIONAL A F F A. R s: Mercury on London's ascendant at the time of the summer solstice in- dicates Britains leadership in dar- ing air raids and other successful operations against the Axis. The United States will gather momen- tum next week in major attack, it is indicated. The offensive of the United Nations is to present sur prising evidence. of resourcefulness and sagacity. July is to be marked by tremendous events in conflicts of such magnitude that they will be unique in world history. Canada will prosper and will contribute magnificently to the great sum- mer campaign.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of activity in which there will be unexpected changes. Care to avoid nasty deci- sions is enjoined
 Children born on this day prob- ably will be decidedly intellectual, industrious and courageous. These gifted ones may be temporal and difficult to understand.

ACCOMPLISHMENTS.

One .ot f the busiest crusaders fol government economy is Henry Merritt Wriston, socialite president of Brown University, As chairman of the Citizens Emergency Com mittee on Non-Defense Expendi- lures, Dr. Wriston has bombarded Congress with impassioned demands for cuts in the budgets of the Ma tional Youth Administration and other agencies.
 Also, he, has functioned as a leading backstage advisor of Sen ator Harry F. Byrd of Virginia, anti New Deal chairman of the Joint Economy Committee on Non-De- fense Spending. ~,.
 However, like many politicos, pr Wriston doesn't apply his economy dogmas to expenditures in which he has a personal interest.
 The educator recently wrote tc Senator Theodore F. Green of Rhode Island, vigorously demand .

 What Dr. Wriston didn't say ir this letter was that he is a trustee of the World Peace Foundation which is greatly interested in the publication-at government expense of these State Department rec. ords.

SEBASTOPOL

The capture or destruction of the Russian port and naval base of Sebasopo, the southwestern toe of the Crimean Peninsula obviously ranks high in the list of immediate German military objectives This is atested by the offensive under way against the city.
 The Germans are finding sebastopo a tough nut to crack The Soviet forces defending the city with stood the most determined drive that the Germans and Rumanians could stage last year, and although the Axis armies drove the Russiars the eastern section of the Crimea and from the Kerch Peninsula important progress was male through the defenses of Sebastopol. Indeed, the Axis found it's attacks upon Sebastopol to be costly out of proportion to progress and far, least thr appears to be the case with the new offensive
 Sebastopol, the chief Russian naval base in the Black Sea- obviously is well fortified to withstand saut indefinitely. The city already has been under siege for seven months, and full offensive was waged against it early last winter Siege. however is not exactly experience for Sebastopol which held out for almost a year against the French Brit ish, Turks, and Sardinians in the Crimean War of 1854 -1856. i'''"'
 The importance of Sebastopol becomes apparent with glance at the map Of Europe. This naval strong point commands the entire Black Sea, and as long it remains in Russi1n hands, op- erating base for the potent Soviet Black Sea fleet the Nazis must forego any notion of using the Black freely a shortcut to the Caucasus.
 Russian possession of Sebestopol likewise hamp- Axis naval activity in the Black Sea. The naval commands the vicinity of the Axis ports of Odes- sa and Constantza, in fact the entire eastern shore If the Black Sea. Were the base to fall into Axis hands submarine and surface operations in the east ern half of the Black Sea would be greatly facilitated

PARTY UNITY

This militant counsel is being countered strongly by old-line COP chiefs on two grounds.
 One, that if he opens fire on Dewey, there is grave danger of disrupting party unity. The other is that Willkie would play squarely into the hands of the New Dealers
 These arguments are carrying much weight with Willkie be- cause of his deep conviction that in these disturbed days it is vital for democracy to maintain the two party system. Willkie is much con- cerned about preserving this U. S system. He sincerely believes that its continuance is endangered, and he harbors very definite suspicious regarding Franklin Roosevelt.
 However. at the same time Willkie is equally disturbed about the powerful isolationist forces within the Republican party. He considers them just as menacing to the welfare of the nation as the Democrats he suspects of having designs on the two party system.
 How to fight both most effectively is the problem he is up against and so far he hasn't found the answer.

he considers Dewey an isolationist and closely tied up with Herbert Hoover, Ali Landon, Joe Pew and other Old Guard and isolationist party forces. But the great mass of people do not know this, the ad- visers point out, and won't know it unless Willkie asserts his leader ship and tells them so publicly.
 Willkie intimates also have told him that the sole basis of his strength is popular support; that the machine politicos always have been against him, and that he can never make his influence felt except by going over their heads as he did in winning the 1940 nomination
 These advisers are strongly urg- ing Willkie to disregard the poli- ticos and go direct to the people They hold that Willkie can't lose if he will do that even if Dewey through control of the convention machinery, does capture the gub- ernatorial nomination.
 Willkie's stature and influence with the great mass of voters these friends contend, will be stronger than ever.
