 But it's only start No man or woman among HIS would contend for a single instant that we're doing enough NOW to win this war!
 We've Got To Build More! We broke all records building million tons of shipping last year. But grim-faced Army and Navy men will tell you that the IS MILLION tons we're building this year STILL won't be enough!
 We've Got To Fight More! From till this war is won America must be on the offensive. In ever-increasing numbers your sons, brothers husbands must go into actual battle. Our losses have already begun to mOunt-and they will not grow less.
 And We've Got To Buy More
 War Bonds! Sure we're all buying War Bonds now. But we've got to help pay for our increased fighting and

the direction of Sergeant Claude
Andrews, and about 200 other root
ers, journeyed to Nogales, Sonora,
Mexico, on Sunday, July 4th.
The game with the Nogales In
ternationalS was played before an
overflow crowd that rooted for ev-
cry good play, regardless.
The Fort Huachuca team got off
to flying start, scoring 3 runs in
the first inning.
To start the Fielding" game for
the Service Commands team, Pri-
vate Alexander Newkirk retired the
side on strikes.
That was too good to be true.
That was all the runs scored by
the visitors to Hoeffer Stadium, but
they were sufficient to win, the
final count being 8 runs to 2.
Two more games have been won
by the fast-travelling baseballers of
the Service Command, one from the
536th Q.M., by score of 18 runs
to 8; the other from "The Miners
of the Copper City, (meaning Bis
bee), the count being IL runs to Z.
And, at this writing, the count
is 13 victories and no defeats for
the Service Commands club, whose
members have scored 159 runs to
43 for the opposition.
One could almost say, in very
truth, that the Service Commands
club is "All Star"
There is Private Walter Mccoy,
who this season pitched a not hit
no run game Private Alexander is
a star pitcher; his work against No
gales being pretty top notch, despite
some hitting on the part of the
beaten team.
Private Thomas Turner at 1st
base is sensational!
Sergeant Albert Young is captain
of the team and a fine player.
And so it goes all down the line!
From widely-scattered parts of the
United States have come the per-
sonnel of the Service Commands
