NEW YORK. July 2s UP1 Stocks

Some caution was traced TO the fact

that BIB Steel will pay the usual 81

OLD MANASSA MAULER MAKING

NEW YORK, July % CUP) 49, The
skill and knowledge that carried
Jack Dempsey to the heavyweight
boxing championship of the world
today is being utilized to teach
Uncle Sam coast guardSmen man

teurS and bringing them back
alive"
Dempsey is now lieutenant in
the service.
"a dead saboteur is better than a
live one on the loose, but they're
even more valuable as prisoners
who can give us information, ?"
Dempsey said today as he sent sew
eral hundred men through their
PAGES at the Manhattan Beach
training stations outdoor gymnas-
ium.
MAKE THEM TOUGH
"These men who guard our long
coastline, our docks and our ship
ping facilities must be tough" he
added. ITS our business to make
them able to meet any emergency,
and we're going to do it,"
Dempsey drew the coast guard
toughening system from the ex-
perience he gained while battering
his way from mining camp braWls
to the top of the fistic ladder The
system calls for boxing, wrestling,
jiu, jitsu, knife welding, and other
rough and tumbfe tactics. Aiding
him is a trained 32-man staff, in

Imperial Irrigation District Of
fice's softballers were one up on
their irst-placc City of FL Centre
rivals Tuesday after downing the
Post-Press, TO, Monday night.
The office, formerly tied for first
place in B league standings with
the City, went into a slight per-
ccntage lead with the victory. The
City is scheduled to play the hard
hitting Acme team Thursday night
in an effort to pull back into tie
for first place
Mondays game was highlighted
by the flashy pitching of Brandy
Foulkes and Tunney Williams for
the Office. Foulkes gave but one
hit in the four innings he worked.
In the first three frames he retired
nine men in a row, forcing them
to either pop up or hit ground balls
to the infield He was credited with
three assists.
Cliff Benson, playing first base
for the press team, tripled to bring
in one run and mark the only hit
against FoulkeS. Williams allowed
two doubles, one by Ben Shaw, POST
Press pitcher, and another by Rudy
Sholder, shortstOp.
The Williams brothers, Pat and
Tunney, did more than their share
for the winners. Tunney played
first base until Foulkes tired and
then took over the mound duties
Pat played the whole game behind
the plate. At bat, Pat collected a
triple and a double in four times
up and Tunney hit a home run,
his third time facing the Post-Press
hurler, Shaw.
Shaw pitched a good game. His
slow ball confused the batters most
of the time and his change of
pace proved very effective. He walk
ed four men and famed four in
seven innings.

/ ANh" OAhAhs guy ~ NSA
The dollar sign rides on every pitch
today as the Brooklyn Dodgers and
st. Louis Cardinals open an i'm
portant three game series in Ebbets
Field. for the choicest cut of the
World Series pie may go to the
team with the edge in the set.
OF course, the Misunderstanding
the Dodgers by seven games will
not win the right to play in the
series merely by sweeping all three
contests. But a st. Louis triumph
will tighten up race that has been
one sided almost all the way.
1t can almost be designated as a
last chance" engagement for the
Red Birds, and the strain of play
ing baseball for two days at the
rate of almost S30C an inning might
be even too much for Billy South
worths red-hot squad The Cardi-
mails have actually kept up PEN
winning pace with record
of "a victories against 10 defeats,
but. unfortunately, Brooklyn has
kept pace with "a triumphs against
IL losses.
CHANCES WEIGHED
Some slight indication that the
series might go in the cardinals
favor can be found in the three out
of four victories they registered
against the Dodgers in their last
meeting at SportSman's Park. How
ever. the Flatbushers were physi-
cally exhausted then and their
pitching efficiency was low after
a tough three-week road trip.
But in June the Cardinals paid
the Dodgers a visit anG it was an
other story. On June 18, the Red
Birds flew into Ebbets Field like a
hurricane. trailing by only four and
a half games. But they left as
gentle as a flock of lambs, for the
Brooks nicked them for four out of
five with Larry French, Whit
Wyatt, Hugh Casey and Kirby
Higbe doing the honors. Only
Rookie Ed Head failed to win.
CARDS HAVE EDGE
The Cardinals do have one actual
edge, for they are the only club
in the league which holds an 'ad-
vantage over the Dodgers in games
won. The count stands at seven to
six. Cooper boasts three successes
and White and Lanler, both left
handlers, two each.
Weather postponed the first game
of the Cards Dodgers series yester-
day along with the New York
Chicago, Cincinnati Philadelphia
and Chicago-NeW York games and
combined with partially open
date for travelling to cut the big
league schedule to single game.
The Boston led Sox twice came
from behind to halt the Cleveland
Indians 8-5. Tex Hughson went the
route for the Sox after a shaky
start to notch his 18th victory. He
gave up IL hits, including pair
of doubles and a triple. Boston
trailed from the third inning, but
tied the score in the sixth off AL
Milnar. went aheau IN the eighth
and scored three runs off Joe hav-
ing to sew it up in the ninth.
