u. ). 10 Buy
Crops, Meat!
Story Hints
at Strict Curbs

DETROIT, Aug. 10 49, tPl -
The Detroit Free Press said to-
day that outright government
purchase Of all major crops and
all meat VIII be proposed by
the administration as a means
Of controlling the cost OF l!v-
ing.
In a dispatch from its Wash
ington correspondent, the paper
said that under the program all
meat would be purchased for
resale, even al a loss, 20 con-
sumers. Wheat, corn, oats, BAR
ley and such staples as pota-
toes, beans and peas would be
taken over from the producer
az the source, the story said, and
for all practical purposes the
government would serve as the
pro lessor and could circumvent
entirely the established channels
OF trade.
President Roosevelt, me story
said. is seeking an early meet
ing with members of the House
Banking and Currency commit
tee and 1t was understood that
Rep Henry B. Stagall GD-Ala) s.,
chairman OF the House Bank
ing and Currency committee,
and Rep. Jesse p. Wolcott r.
Mlch) were enroute TO Wash
ington at White House request.
The proposal would not be
submitted 10 the full committee
until the two leaders are con-
WINGED of the feasibility Of its
operation, the story went on.
The proposed program, the
Free Press said, would mean
virtual elimination OF the Of
flee Of Price Administration but
would require congressional au-
thority 70 place the war food
administration in position to
bu. directly in what would
amount TO nationwide com
miSSary.
The program is believed TO
have originated with White
House adviser Harry L. Hop
kins and WOULD apply also 10
eggs but in that case would ex-
emp. all farmers with fewer
than so hens.
The plan is supposedly iden-
teal TO the English system of
food-price control.

Brilliant Record Compiled During Month Season
~ Victories, Il Losses One Tie

= Dis b n d temporarily, while
bringing replacementS up from hith-
er and yon, the Officers Lakeside
Club team of softballers soon will be
ready to take on all comers, officers
of the 92nd Infantry Division, more
especially.
Starting their drive for softball
fame on last April 29th, the Officers
of the Lakeside Club did a pretty
fair job They started out by de-
feating the 631st ONO by a score
of 19 runs to 6, and then went on
to compile the following brilliant
record:
Games won-27. Games lost-11.
Games tied-17.
Not bad, not bad! In fact, darn
good, all things considered.
Captain w. K. Stewart, Jr Direc-
tor of Personnel, was the pitching
mainstay of the team, and he turned
in Is wins and Z losses and became
involved in the only tie game of the
season. Captain Stewart is fash
ioned from a sane mental mould,
where softball pitching is concerned,
i.e.: he figures, and rightly, that
there are nine other players on the
team, SO why should he attempt to
strike out EVERY batter? His av-
erage for the season was .682
Captain Joel D. Poage, who played
first base on occasion, also did some
fine country style pitching for the

homer that was matched by
Rodriguez, right fielder of the
Cananea nine.
Stung by waning popularity,
insofar as top notch pitching
ability was concerned, Private Nc
Coy took the mound against Can
anea determined to win back at least
some of the awe and admiration that
was bestowed on him by enemy
plaeyrs and fans during a recent
four h1Onth period, while he was
winning nine straight games. That
Mccoy did a master job last Sun
day goes without argument, and his
followers are back on the band.wag-
on swearing by him as they swore
on other former days.
(McCoy's next test, and a severe
one it will be, is scheduled for next
Sunday, Sept. 5th, when he'll go to
the pitching hill in the baseball
park of the Nogales Internationals,
whose team defeated Mccoy quite
deciSively on a recent afternoon on
Rube Foster Memorial Field.)
Moore, steady and sometimes bril-
liant third baseman of the SOU
nine, started his team on the win
ming road by coming home on the
wings of Turner's double. From
then onward it was a great battle,
the score being "All-All" on two oc-
casionS.
Cananea met her Waterloo in the
10th inning, when Moore singled;
Young laid down a perfect bunt
sending Moore to second, Turner
then failed in the clutch by flying
out, but along came Luke, SOUS sec
ond baseman with single that sent
Moore across the plate with the final
and winning tally.
The victory gained by SOU over
Cananea made up, somewhat, for
the diScomforts of the journey from
Fort Huachuca to Cananea and re-
turn, a journey that was made un-

he played in the outfield.
Major Roger Bolenbacker (VC)
was another player who drove the
ball to far distances. Not always,
but pretty often. And ne, too, was
an outfielder. Major Bolenbacker
made for himself some fine softball
history, when he smashed out a
three bagger on his final, and the
teams final, appearance of the first
half of the season, which ended a
few days ago. It was the only hit of
the game, according to the official
scorer.
Capt. Mackie
Captain Fred w. Mackie played
the outfield and smacked the ball
VERY hard. Quite dependable was
Captain Mackie.
End Lieut.. Milton Rudnich and
End Lieut.. Kenneth Beckanhauer
were other players who performed
well. The former usually had him

later caught quite a number of
games and of his work much good
can be said.
The above officers carried the
torch steadily throughout the sea-

outsiders"
