An aggressive Bather base
ball team grabbed the initiative
last Friday at the St. Mary S
baseball park and outpointed a
Birmingham High School squad
by a 10 point margin. The Mt
Clemens victors maintained the
lead all through the game by
obtaining a Al start in the first
inning and keeping we'll ahead
for the rest of the game.
Grabbing the lead in the first
inning, the Bathers made four
runs, two Of which were made
by Jack Tomtlshen's two Dagger
hit. This brought in two runs for
the Red and Gray team. Clar-

out in their brilliant red and
white uniforms and Umpire-in-
Chief George Heller gave the
familiar cry Of Play Ball.
Duckert retired the first three
River Pointe players in order,
but II. & S, capitalizing on
threc-baSc error, pushed across
the first of galaxy of runs
which were TO be scored in fol-
lowing innings. Tom 'Bricn,
Bar-BQ chucker, struck out
Duckert and Herb Martell but
Bill BcardSlec lined hard
single over second base and con-
tlnued ON around the base paths
as the River Polntc center field
er let the ball get through his
legs.
TIED IN SECOND
The Bar-B-Q boys tied the
game up in their half of the
Secondsas Harold Urmy led off
with single, stole second, and
scored as the II & S. first sacker
dropped throw on Pete Rob-
ertSons lntleld grounder to
short.
The Hubarth & Schott ten
started showing their power in
the third frame as they counted
twice TO take a lead which they
never rclinqulShed. Elmer RAJ
chow was safe at first on an err
ror and Reggie Trombley walk
ed. Martell then poled a long
double 10 left center driving in
the aforementioned baserunners.
AS the River Pointe batters
we're being taken care of, the
LumbCrjacks continued to make
merry on the base paths, due
mostly 10 erratic fielding on the
part Of the Maroon and GRAY
clad Bar BQers. Two walks. /
an error, flelder's choice and
hIts by Bernie Shields and DUO
kert were responsible for five
markers IN the H. & S. fourth
Stanza. But 1T was the fifth
frame for Lawson Bcardslees
mlnlonS that really took the
cake, In all, II men faced o.
BrIen and nine of them COM
pleted the circuit. A double by
Shields, his second, and singles
by MartcIl, B Bcardslee, School.
RachoW and l. Trombley helped
keep things going in the hectic
session.
ERROR IN FOURTH
River POlntc threatened TO
add 10 their total in the fourth
inning when Bernard DeSmith
led off with a single and after
Urmy had flied out, went to
third when an error was made
on Merritt Willmarth ground
or. DcSmith was out at the
plate, however, as Lester Howey
grounded TO Duckcrt who threw
10 RachoW tagging the runner
Robertson then ended the threat
by lining deep to left field.

& S, each collecting two safe
tics IN four appearances at the
plate. Urmv paced the Bar-BQ
ten with the hickory getting

THE BRIGHTER SIDE

TT HAS been a long hard
struggle but the black mar
ket is now an established in
stitution in the United States
like the bootleg industry OF the
'20s.
II the war continues long
enough, I have no doubt that
the black marketeers will
reach the same standing as
the big shot bottles enjoyed
during the prohibition period
with politicians and office
holders showing them due re-
spect and after the war attain
TO the same social and busi-
ness eminence that Is the rat
ing today of many distinguished
ex-'feggers.
There fingers in some quar-
tiers slight tendency to criti-
CHE black marketing and there
remains among certain citizens
a feeling of aloofness toward
black marketeers, but you may
remember that it took little
time to dissipate similar mani
festations with reference to
booting and bottles in the in
fancy OF that enterprise.
/ mean the booting trade was
not Immediately accepted in the
best commercial circles and the
bottles were socially no more
welcome than the smallpox.
Then presently even occu-
pants of our court benches,
members of Congress and other
office holders and a few of the
clergy were buyers in booting
and finally they were introduce
ing the bottles to their friends.

THESE DAYS
BY George E.
Sokolsky

Rabbi Abba Hitler Silver Of
Cleveland led the fight for the
resolution and assumed that all
Zionists would stand behind it.
Suddenly. it appeared that
the New York Zionists, led by
Rabbi Stephen S. Wise, had
been reached by the White
House, for they withdrew their
support on the ground that they
did not wish to embarrass the
President.
Senator Wagner. Senator
Taft, and other supporters were
left holding the bag and the
White House won another VIC
tory not only through betrayal
of the promised word, but also
by splitting a group into fac
tons.

DOTH the Democratic and Re-
- publican parties in their
platforms this year resolved
everlastingly to support the
Zionist position with regard TO
Palestine. namely that that land
was to be re-established as a
homeland and commonwealth
for the Jews. On Oct. Is, Presi-
dent Roosevelt declared himself
as favoring that proposal.
THAT was before election.
Il Since election, the House
committee concerned with this
resolution ducked it altogether
and the Senate committee in
great heat and excitement killed
il.
The Palestinian planks Of
both platforms were designed to
attract votes; those votes were
in a preponderent measure de-
livered to Franklin D. Roose-
velt. The promise then has per-
formed its full mission: It coll
lected votes.
/ happen to favor the Pales-
tinian cause; know a great
many Americans, for whose
opinions and integrity I have
the highest respect, who do not.
That is beside the point.
WHAT does matter is that
w political promise was made
to attract a block of votes with
no intention of the promise be-
ing kept.
Naturally, I was not present
at any of these private in
camera meetings and any one
can call me a liar who chooses,
but 1 have discussed this mat
ter with enough persons TO get
the outlines etthe story Yin
such form as I believe to be the
truth. Here il is:
The President, in discussing
the Palestinian matters with
two Democratic members OF
the Senate, made IL clear that
he had no desire for a resolu-
ton concerning it. His argu-
ment was. as told to me, that
he would personally handle the
matter OF Palestine and would
make deal.
When told that the resolution
was actually pending and would
be pressed. he is reported TO
have indicated that he could re-
move the presSures.
SENATOR ROBERT WAC
~ NER Of New York and
Senator Robert Taft of Ohio
pushed the resolution valiantly
and refused to withdraw ii.
Twice Secretary of State Stet-
tinius appeared personally be-
fore the Senate committee to
oppose il, but Senator Wagner
stuck by his promise To his
Jewish constituents that he
would see this resolution
through.
Then the Jewish group split

TOWARD the end recognition
4 Of the booting business was
general and that Is the way
the black market and the black
marketeers are coming along.
They have the support Of
some of our best citizens, not
to the same extent az yet that
the logging industry had. but
growing steadily every day.
I would not be surprised to
see our political and social big
wigs and our most distinguished
journalists visiting the home Of
Burnt Cork Bart, the black
marketeer, and dining at his
festive board as they used to do
for the bootleg barons.
I remember that in the early
days of the black market some
OF the operators were q Dit dis
couraged by what appeared to
be considerable public resent
ment of them and their occupa-
ton.
They were talking of with
drawing.
They had TO be convinced
that if the public did not APP
prove of them and support
them they would not be in ex-
istence at all.
For a time there was a ten
dency on the part of the pioneer
black marketeers to conduct
their business rather secretly
and to endeavor to conceal their
profits lest the treasury depart
