an editorial tribute.
Thirty-six Class A compete TO-
day at Chene-Trombly, practically
all of those entered in the tourna-

after reverts to the lower divi-

pion will be known long before the

MAY BE GOEBEL

Goebels, if Betty Chapman and
Edwardina Coy get in large series,
also have enough wood stored up
to come out winner. Olympics
proved the better over the long
league route but any team has a
banner night now and then. 1t
may be Goebels' turn.
Delmar Bowling School under
Betty Schaefer is not so well
known as its rivals but its lineup
contains players good enough for
either the Major or Travelling
leagues. Another team with pros
poets is Great Lakes. Still another
is Ida Shay's Borbelys.

TWO MAIN THREATS

Chief threats for the honors held
by Enterprise are Olympic, Major
and Travelling League champions,
and Alconas. winner of the state
title at Lansing several weeks ago
and Olympics' closest competitor
in the major circuit.
Enterprise and Olympics cross
alleys and it is possible the title
holder will be determined on the
score made in this particular
grouping.
And while these three teams sp-
pear the best in matter Of records,
Kinneys came along fast since
Elizabeth Gribbons joined the club
in January, and may slip through
to win as their scoring power Is
better than some matches indi-
cate.

No-hit performances by pitchers
in the Catholic High School Base
ball League have been uncommonly
frequent this season, but Chick
Cunningham of ST. Catherine de-
serves a place of his own.
Cunningham was just another
'hurler with a no-hit game 10 his
credit last Tuesday when he
blanked ST. Stanislaus, $40. But
young Cunningham. an all-around
athlete at ST. Catherine, moved
into a class by himself yesterday
when he turned in his second no.
hitter in four days. He whipped
st. Ambrose, 1913, the latter suf-
fering its first setback of the sea-
son in the first division.
Cunningham was wild, issuing
seven bases on balls. but he kept
every runner from the plate. He
struck out IS. A brother, Jim Cum
bingham, led the hitters with four
hits for a perfect day, including
two homers. Jim Wilder collected
three hits for the winners.

Industry Has Met the Test

We are beginning to reap the sour fruit of our long refusal to recognize the obvi- ous Even after we actually were in the war as allies of Great Britain, Russia and China, we insisted publicly and privately that we were not going to enter the war. Now we are paying for that ostrich-like absurdity. This nations industry has done an unbelievably fast and efficient job of converting from pianos to planes, from baby carriages to ships, from auto mobiles to tanks, from comets to shells.
 In all probability industry will prove itself capable of making, before the cal endar year ends the stupendous aggre- gate of seven billion dollars worth of armament and munitions and other war material each month We won't accom- pliSh that because there isn't enough of several vital raw materials, of which steel and copper are best publicized and per- haps most important.
 We are short of steel and copper rub Der and tin, at least partly because we insisted on kidding ourselves, for so long, that we could keep out of this war and serve merely as non-belligerent gran ary and factory for our anti-axis friends. This is not said in any spirit of bitterness, nor is the complaint directed at any in- dividual or group. President Roosevelt is at fault, and Congress and the people; the isolationiSts and the intervention ists; capital and labor; the farmers and city folks.
 Nevertheless, the record should be kept straight. As nation, we failed to prepare for this war by making and con- tinually revising the blueprints for an army and a navy and for necessary equip ment and supplies and transportation. Knowing that Japan hated us and had Asiatic designs with which we interfered, we failed to lay emergency plans against the sort of disaster that we have suffered in the Far East.
 When Pearl Harbor tossed us overnight into belligerency, we had no idea what sort of war we were going to fight, or where, or what we should need for the purpose. We wasted valuable time seek ing to make analyses that could have been made well in advance. We guessed what we should need in the way of raw materials, and too often guessed wrong.
 Now, facing the crisis, we have a pro- ductive plant of incredible versatility and pOtentiality, increasingly idle for lack of raw materials. This war has produced naanv failures, excusable and otherwise. Thev do not include the institution of free enterprise. Our "selfish," "cruel," 'unsocial," money -grubbing" capital istic industry has met every test.

The young man was badly fright ened, and shaking his teacher by the shoulder cried, Wake up! This certainly must be the end of the world"
 But the teacher who had trav- eled through that section before, replied quietly, "It's not the end of the world; it's the dawning of a new day."
 A very hard lesson for us all to learn Is that progress comes through conflict and that the gains of the world are made only at the expense of sacrifice and suffering. We see things going badly from a worldly point of view and we im- mediately conclude that catastrophe is at hand. But the good only comes forth when the bad is destroyed. The new follows hard up- on the disintegration of the old. Things that are outgrown must be cast aside before things adequate can take their place. What often appears the end of the world is only the dawning of new day.
 Some day this war will end, but the world will never again be the same. And what is going on now is not the ending of the world but the ending of an order. And this must come before the dawning of a new day.

morrow

The political campaign in Waterbury may we'll be said to have opened. Next week will find Democrats engaging in primary battle, presumably, while Re- publicans prepare themselves for one a little later. The mechanics of a party primary are often a mystery to all save the initiated. Actually primary contest is simply one to control a group of dele gates to a convention which will nomin- ate one or more candidates for public of- flee. The delegates may be committed to some one individual or they may be un- pledged, the latter instance always sure to provide plenty of fireworks if there are certain avowed candidates seeking nom ination. Primary contests today as in the past are waged with paper ballots, en- tailing the tedious job of counting them after the ballot boxes have been official ly closed. Your average politician is as much at home in primary fight as he is in the hottest of election campaigns. It's a prelude to the big contest and merely whets his appetite for more.
