ness at bat. This slump in Brooklyn
hitting was due in part to the in
jury and absence of outfielder Pete
ReiSer, leading batsman in the Ma
tional division. PoWdering Pete has
been resting at Larry MacPhail's
Maryland farm, but he was sche-
duled to rejoin the team today. If
Reiser has regained his old vigor
with the wand, the Dodgers may
extend that four-game lead in a
hurry. But If he haSn't-if that
torn thigh muscle, or bruised kid
ney or aftermath of a brain con-
cussion still bothers him-the Dod-
gers probably still will find them
selves in the doldrums at bat.
NOT INSURANCE
And, despite the acquisition of
Pitcher Bobo NeWsom, who apollo
gized for his inaugural four-hit
victory over Cincinnati for Brook
lyn by saying, Il must be slipping"
We cannot regard NeWsom as PEN
nant insurance NeWSom is as good
a pitcher as he feels on the day
he takes the mound, but there is
no governor on his feelings. He
may win four or five more games,
or he may get blasted off the hill
every time he starts
But. whether NeWSom pitches
tight ball, the Dodgers must get
hits and runs down the stretch
if they are to win. Because they
are challenged by the Cardinals,
the best batting team in the
league. Despite what some consider
schdule advantages, we won't go
overheard on the Dodgers. Not un-
til we see what they do against
the hostile and hard hitting
Giants.

ally limits his softball activities to

about everything that came near
the plate. He pounded two singles
in addition to polling the round
tripper in four times up. Bill Payne
collected three for four for the all
stars, including a triple and two
singles. Leroy jackson, also of the
stars, did him one better by pound
ing out four consecutive hits, two
singles and two doubles.
Donald Templeton, City rowing

play. He made several spectacular
catches and while at bat hit a home

these is the loss of Jim Petit, all

quarterback frankie Albert thought

be replaced-by Ray Hammett.
Buck FaWcett, regarded by many
observers as one of the most prom

From the black and white rash
that has broken out in metropoli
tan newspapers, We Judge-without
benefit of binoculars or ear horns
that baseball BosWells assigned to
the Brooklyn Dodgers honestly be-
lieve Larry MacPhails Flatbushers
have practically clinched the Ma
tional League pennant again.
Maybe so, but we always like to
see the bottom card turned up. So
we will not raise another flag over
Ebbets Field until the final figures
force us to do it-if they do.
In fact, we staunchly refuse to
be sWayed toward either the Dod-

Brooklyn's three games with the
dangerous New York Giants, the

BALANCE SHEET
Before this series at the Polo

Brooklyn leading st. Louis by only
four games, and that the Dodgers
still have % games to play and
the Cardinals 81. Brother, baseball
is such a goofy sport that any
thing can happen in that stretch.
However, if the Dodgers knock off
the Giants impressively this week
end. we'll begin to agree with the
Brooklyn BosWells that the Dodgers
are in.
Both the Dodgers and Giants are
back from the west, and the rec
ords show that the Giants were
more impressive on tour than the
Dodgers. Mel Otis men won seven
games and lost only three, while
the Dodgers won seven and lost five
The Giants are playing the best
brand of ball since Bill Terry's
team of 1887, although they are in
third place-due to a slow start.
During the past couple Of weeks

Keeping a Promise

When one makes promise
To stranger or to friend
He is building a fine mirror
To reflect his manly trend.
A mirror is a looking glass
Which sees us thru and thru;
1t knows all the little things
We do, or fail to do.
If we make a promise,
An then try to wiggle out;
That mirror will reflect
A most unmanly pout.
But when we make a promise,
And consider it worthwhile;
The mirror will reflect
A fine determined smile.
Before we make a promise
Or commit ourselves too deep;
Be sure that it is worthy
For us to try to keep.
When we fail to keep promise,
Or with one we are stuck;
Like the breaking of a mirror,
It's an omen of bad luck.
Be not afraid to promise
Things good and fine to do;
Like bread upon the water,
They'll come back to you.
They may not come tomorrow,
Nor yet within the year;
Do not count your blessings
Until they're really here.
We may not know the time,
Nor from whence they come;
But let US keep our promises
Until our days are done.
Tudor Francis Brown.
VWGO Verse Writers Guild of

Moral:
Some fellers promises are like
old walnuts, when you shake
them they make a lot of noise,
but when you look into them,
they are worthless.

Massillon
May Not Have
Football Team

A news story in the Columbus
Citizen carrying MasslIlon
dateline reveals that football for
next year in that city is sitting
in a precarious position.
Massillon's famed Washington
high school football team, one
of the mightest elevens in the
country, may or may not put a
team on the field next season,
according to the story, because
of failure Of four-mill school
levy to pass at a special election,
but regardless, the services OF
William (Bud) Houghton, coach
of the team who won nine games
and tied one last season, will be
lost.
Houghton has enlisted in the
Physical Education Division of
the U. S. Navy Air corps and
will be gone in the near future,
according to L. j. Smith, super
intendent Of the Massillon
schools.
The article goes on to- state
that failure of the levy to pass
will also curtail school semesters
by three months.
Average attendance at Mass
ilon's football games has been
10000 people who have contri-
buted enough to pay for II extra

New Army Physical
Standards Revealed

New Army physical standards
which materially reduce dental
and eye requirements for Selec-
tive Service inductees were an
nounced to local boards this
week by National Headquarters,
Selective Service System.
More than 20 per cent of the
men rejected for physical dis
ability under the old Army stan
dards were turned down because
of defective teeth. The new rul-
ing, therefore, is expected to per-
nit reclassification as Class la,
or available for full military SER
vice, of many men now deferred
as we'll as to permit induction of
thousands of registrants who,
heretofore, would have failed to
qualify for such classification.
Formerly, the Army required
that an inductee have a minimum
of six masticating and six incisor
teeth, all Of which were opposed.
The new requirement is merely
that he be able to eat and digest
Army "chow."

SIRENS UNLAWFUL
ON FIREMEN'S CARS

Automobiles Of volunteer fire
men are not emergency vehicles
as that term is defined in Ohio
law and may not be equipped
with sirens, Attorney General
Thomas j. Herbert ruled this
week in an opinion to Roland
Pontius, Ashtabula County pro-
secutor.
Only fire equipment permitted
to have siren is that owned by
a political subdivision of the
state. The statute is more lib
eral with other types of emer-
gency vehicles and obviously the
legislature overlooked the vol
unteer fire departments.
