Brenniman was caught between
third and the plate and tagged
out, the batter being safe on a
fielder's choice. Seibert made
the third out popping to second
base.
Herb Martell got as far as
third base with two out in the
II. g. S. fifth on a walk, a passed
ball and stolen base, but the next
batter grounded to right short
for the final out.
The final Lumberback oppor-
tunity to produce came in the
sixth canto. With two away,
Beardslee and Heller singled, to
place men on second and third
following stolen base by the
latter, but they couldn't advance
as Frederick frightened up and
forced the next player to be re-
tired, right short to first.
The Cleaner hurler gave up
six safeties, all singles, divided
equally among three H. & S.
batters. l.. Trombley, Beardslee
and Heller went plateWard
three times and were credited
with two hits. Frederick walked
but one man and struck out
three. Duckert had no strikeoutS
and handed out three passes. His
support in the field was nothing
to write home about, six mis-
plays being committed. Only one
of the Cleaners runs was I'M
earned, however.
Brenniman had perfect
night at the plate to top his
mates with the stick. He walked
once and singled twice in three
trips. F. Frederick followed close
behind with two for three.

Thirty-five men reported to
Coach Roy Quinn this morning
for football practise at Mount
Clemens High School, and start
ed to exercise all those stiff
joints and aweak muscles that
are apt to take form during alb
sence from continued workouts.
AS yet, a definite forecast as
to what kind Of team the Bath
ers will be when they come out
on the gridiron for their first
game, can not be made, but it
looks as though the opposing
teams will find Mount Clemens
High tough opponent.
The good forward wall that
was anticipated by Coach Quinn
will undoubtedly take shape, as
six lettermen who performed in
the line last year have returned
The hopes for the backfield are
bright, as Jimmy Charbeneau
and 224 pound Bob Manning
have returned. Dick Fox is back
to school, but still has an ailing
ankle.
Selective Service has been
kind to Coach Quinn, for nine
members Of last years team re-
ported for the first practise, and
an experienced nucleus will be
available for the team. A good
first eleven will undoubtedly be
formed, but the big question
mark is reserve power and on
that team can fall or be un-
beatablc.
The Bathers' first encounter
will be with Lincoln High OF
Van Dyke in that community
on Sept. %. The war plant area
boys are expected to put UP
formidable OPPOSITION, because
the school has one of the largest
enrollments in the state outside
OF Detroit.

Tiger Future
Confidently
Trout's SeoIpins
of indians Aids
Climb Of BensoIs
BY FRANK KENESSON

DETROIT, Sept. 8 - (P) -
Temperatures in the sixt les
aren't conducive to comfort in
the baseball stands but Steve
O'Neill, manager of the Detroit
Tigers, looked ahead to cool
September afternoons with con-
fidence today after Dizzy Trout's
superlative three-hit shutout of
the Cleveland Indians that put
the Bengals within a single
game of the American League
lead.
Trout's oath victory, achieved
by 3 to 0 score in 66-degree
temperature yesterday, provides
the key to Tiger pennant hopes,
as expressed by O'Neill.
The big highlander, working
consistently every third day
both as a starter and in relief,
will thrive on rest and cool
weather through the American
League stretch drive il his per-
Torrance in hurting his sixth
shutout of the year means any
thing.
Trout never was more for
midable than against the In
dians yesterday. He gave only
three singles, pitched the last
six innings without allowing a
hit and famed five men, two of
them - Lou Boudreau and Roy
Cullenbine - to end the ninth
inning.
With the Tigers idle seven of
the next II days both Trout and
the clubs other big pitching
winner, Hal Newhouser, should
be at their strongest going into
Detroit's IA game home stand
! that winds up the season, o.
| Neill believes.
GENEROUS JIM
Highlander Jim Bagby, the
Cleveland starter, wasn't on the
stingy side as far as hits were
concerned - giving up 10 -
but he forced the Tigers to waste
a lot of them. Five Detroit blows
produced only one run in the
first inning and it took three
more hits to corral the second
tally in the fifth. Both time:
Cleveland double plays GU

Every Tiger hit safely but
only Roger Cramer got two, run

Basis of Peace

Washington Evening Starr
 In his informal remarks to delegates to the Dunn barton Oaks conference President Roosevelt stated simple and obvious truth when said that the dura ton of the next peace will depend largely on whether Britain Russia China and the United States maintain in the long future the same spirit of cooperation that they showing now in winning the war AS ne puts it. if the evils of aggression to be cWbed and if we are to have "a peaceful period for our grandchildren to grow up in then the four ot us VIII have to be friends conferrng all the time and spread ing the idea of neghbory collaboration around the world.
 Simple and obvious though this is, however, 1t cannot be emphasized too often or too strongly, Tor upon it rests all the hopes may have of setting up world system of collective security. The creation of such a system necessarily involves much technical detail and considerable degree of highly formalized diplomatic discussion yet the whole of 1t ools oowh to nothing more elaborate than spirit of friendly o-operaton-shared by governments and peoples alike in the family of nations With this, mankind can look forward with confidence to an enduring peace without it. not the biggest or best ot ofgalza ticns can function effectively for long.
 In the war the Allies have shared great end in common-the objective of crushing the common foe. It will be tragedy if, after the fervor of battle fades away they will fail to work equally well together in preserving the peace. That objective no less than military victory is urgent and it be attained if we pursue it with the kind of cooperation described by MT Roosevelt The form which international system will take is important of course but by itself if can achieve little or nothing The spirit behind it is what will count most of all Given genuine good will on the part of the powers concerned gwen the great end to be shared in common, we can be req sonabv confident of preventing another global strug- gle from breaking out 25 or 30 years from now

Digest poll, which forecast the election of Landon in the face of the Roosevelt landslide and the bad guesses of such outed experts Emil Hurja and his Pathfinder polls, the American Institute of Public Opinion has an impressive record for accuracy.
 The notable thing about the first national returns from the new Gallup poll is that they indicate a horse race" As many as four out of five men in the street may assume that President RooseVets re- election is a foregone conclusion but the Gallup figures certainly do not justify any such assumption The reports give Roosevelt 28 States with barely 20 more electoral votes than he needs to win Of the so- called safe" States-those not likely to be switched from one column the other by any of the impond- erable factors now in play-Roosevet is not much better off than Dewey. He has 157 electoral votes to start with whereas Dewey is in better position at the outset than was Wilkie with bedrock strength of Al electoral votes.
 The continuous measurement of the national political trend the campaign proceeds and events unfold should provide highly interesting reading be- tween now and November.

FIRST ACCOUNTING

The first complete State -by-State returns from the scientific poll of public sentiment in the presi- dental campaign by the American Institute of Public Opinion have been made public They provide an extremely interesting commentary upon the present national political situation
 Perhaps never before public political inclina- tion so difficult judge today There so many imponderabes; so many factors likely to change again and again that the usual yardstcks of political forecasting comparatively useless However com potent the expert, he only guess at the outcome in November.
 Dr. Gallup and his associates do not profess to be seers You find it emphasized in the article accom- panying the poll report that it is not forecast of November, but is based merely upon public sentiment as of today.
 The Gallup poll is scientifically designed to give the most accurate index possible of political sent- ment. In contrast with the mass type of straw-vote sampling, it has in the past pretty close, and sometimes amazingly close, to the actual results dependent always of course, upon whether the people go the polls in the expected proportions. Alongside such indices of public opinion the old Literary

Benefic aspects dominate today, which should bring good news re- garding domestic conditions and general prosperity
 HEART AND HOME; Women who have had social influence will now have reason to watch their daily programs of activity. The fashionable gay recreations of the past now are copied by young wo- men whose husbands are in the war Cocktail parties and night clubs as means of escape from anxiety will lure young wives and offer various temptations.
 zBUSINESS AFFAIRS: Industry $ well directed by the stars. Plans for transition from production for war needs may cause shifting of employees but prosperity will con- tinue in the Autumn. The Pacific Coast should prepare for a great influx of residents after the defeat of the Nazis.
 NATIONAL ISSUES: While at tention focuses upon the political campaign, enemy propaganda will make headway among persons de- siring peace at any cost. Seeds Of future controversies will be subtly and successfully sown among we'll meaning men and women, especial ly church members.
 INTERNATIONAL A F F A R s: Hitler continues under evil DOT tents. Astrology has foretold tem- porary gains for the Nazis through desperate measures, including secret weapons, but from this time on destiny will bring retribution for the decade of fiendish crimes for which the Fuehrer is responsible. Again, tragic death for Hitler is forecast by the end of next year Defeat in 1914 has been long prog nosticated.

 When the Allied campaign ln Burma first began to bog down, General Stilwell sent Davies from Burma to India to make survey of what was holding things up.
