all-important run.
The triumph salvaged one out
OF The four-game series. the Ath-
leticS failing in their bid for a
clean sweep of the set.
MACKS SCORE
The Tigers drew first blood
when they scored a-fun with the
aid of an error in the second in-
ming. Hostetler led off with
single to left, after Richards had
flied out to Ford Garrison in left.
Newhouser beat out a bunt for a
single. Joe Hoover struck out
but when Busch let Doc Cramer's

George Kell's sacrifice and scored
when Garrison laced a single to
center.
For the next six innings New

Home From
Wars, Aids In
Bond Drive

Ivan Kennedy, who served
with the armed forces for sever
al months in North Africa and
Sicily and given furlough home
because of wounds, was in Clint
wood this week seeing relatives
and friends. He assisted in the
recent bond drive by making
talks along with other wounded
soldiers, at war bond rallies and
he has been mentioned frequent
ly in the papers in connection
with such gatherings and is re-
garded as a real war hero.
He is a son of Chester Kenne-
DIV and was born on Caney Ridge
but spent much of his life before
entering the army with relatives
at Wise.
Young Kennedy relates that he
had the pleasure of meeting and
talking with Ernie Pile in North
Africa and says that he found
the great war correspondent
regular fellow. He praises Col.
Theodore Roosevelt, who has
served on the front in both the
North African and italian cam
paigns. Colonel Roosevelt, he
says, marches with his men and
shares all of their hardships.

KIWANIS, ALSO, rs NEVER
OUT
(From District Bulletin)

L
The January report of the
Clintwood Kiwanis club just re-
ceived showing three new mem
bers, reminds us of the Salvation
Army slogan that "a man may
be down but he is never out"
This is also true of a Kiwanis
club. This small club, in a COM
munity from which the war eff
fort has drained a large part of
the man-power resources, started
in 1943 with II members and a
not-too-promising outlook The
January, 1914 report shows 20
members and the information
that the future was never so
promising. The club started last
year with burdenSOme debt on
the Community House which it
had built for civic uses, with
other debts and a low Kiwanis
morale" The debt has been paid,
the Community House improved,
and other worth while pro-
jecs are engaging the attention of
the Club but have not been per-
fected. There are good prospects
for further membership additions
and bright future lies before
the club. This should be an in
spiration to other and larger
clubs.

Ranger Calls
Attention To
O'clock Law"

According to Forest Ranger E.
F. Wolcott of the Clinch District
of Jefferson National Forest, the
four o'clock brush burning law
will be rigidly enforced this
spring.
All farmers or residents w it'll
brush to burn, if outside the cor
porate limits of town must
comply with the requirements of
this law, beginning March l. Sew
eral farmers have already burn
ed their brush and sage fields,
and it was good business. Early
season burning is usuallf safe
burning. Many farmers or local
residents still have much burn
ing to do, because of shortage of
help on the place, or too busy to
get at it, or the weather was too
wet. These people must abide by
this four o'clock law and try to
keep their fire from getting away
more than they ever did before
The war effort demands safe and
sensible brush and trash burning
The four o'clock law, Or direc-
tive. very reasonably requires:
during the period from March
and ending May 15-of each year,
it shall be unlawful in any coun-
ty, organized for forset fire con-
troll under the direction of the
state forester, for any person to
set fire to, or procure another to
set fire to, any brush, leaves,
grass, debris or field containing
dry grass or other anflammable
material capable of spreading fire
located in or within 800 feet of
any woodland or brush land, ex-
cept between the hours of 4
o'clock p m and IL o'clock at

V-MAIL FROM ITALY

We have just received a novel
piece of V-mail from Sgt. Guy
Colley, formerly of Clintwood

It is a cartoon showing the front
lines somewhere over there. A
soldier is crawling down the line
taking up collection in his he'll
met with the explanation that it
sis for the poor war workers, SO
they can carry on with the war
work at home"
Evidently the soldiers have
been well informed as to the
shortcomings of the workers but
have little information as to the
activities Of the "cost plus" boys,
who refused to manufacture war
materials of any sort until they
were guaranteed a good, solid
profit.
