 OPENING MATCH
Annefti Scores Shutout Over Blue Jays in Local
 SoftbaII Scrap

A two-hit pitching performance by unawkward Old Awkward Jack Annetti last evening set the Fin ance Blue Jays with their backs to the wall in the struggle for the local softball pennant for l945.
 The Blue Jays finished on top in the regular league play, but now have to take two straight from the Old Awks in order to maintain a spot in the flag play-offs.
 Timely hitting by Cutler and Yates helped the Awks build up their 8-O edge in last evenings contest. Cutler punched a four base smack in the sixth for large part in the four runs the Awks counted that frame.
 A clash between the Freshmen and Coast Guard, the first of their two-of three game do-or-die play off series, is set for this evening at T o'clock. Place-Firemen'S Field.

Majorleague
 Pace Sellers
(By The Associated Press)

Individual performances ln the majors during the past week brought about very little change in solo ratings.
 Tommy Holmes, Boston Braves sensation, stepped back into the lead in National loop hitting, but no longer holds the healthy mar gins that marked his days of 400 blasting. Holmes now has only a one-point edge over Brooklyn's Goody Rosen, who last week shared the lead from Holmes for a time.
 Holmes is also the senior cir cults top home run clouter, with 16 round-trippers, two more than the American Leagues leading distance getter, Vernon Stephens, Jr., of 1914 champion Browns.
 Red Sox Freshman Boo" Fer riss is all alone by himself when it comes to pitching records, his IT and 3 mark being way out in front for both leagues. Present de- partmental leaders, as compiled by the Associated Press, are:
 American League
 Batting-C uccin clio, Chicago, .333; Case, Washington, 327.
 Runs Batted In-R. Johnson, 56; Etten, New York, 54.

negotiation rather than strikes. Bevin took a bad trouncing from Winston Churchill in 1926, has never forgiven the ex-Prime Min ister It was Bevin who called the 1926 general strike in England, a strike which Churchill dealt shat tering blow. Bevin is forth | right anti-Fascist, was against Hitler, Mussolini and the Cliveden Set from their inception, was re- sponsible for the tough-minded po- sition his party took internationally from 1933 to the outbreak of war. As leader of the Transport Workers, Bevin controls consider able of the Labor Party, is rough cn his enemies, gruff with his friends, looses his patience fre- quently.
 Feminine Support
 To get feminine support, the new Labor Government will lean heavily on red-headed fiery Labor MP, Ellen Wilkinson. Miss Will kinson is at home in a fight, knows the world, has contempt for Brit aims colonial policies, is scrapper from the word go. She knows about riots and bloodshed first hand, was in the thick of the Black and Tan trouble in Ireland, even led hunger marchers on London during the depression. :. Miss Wilkinson lives in the bo- hemian Bloomsbury section of London, surroun d by poets, painters, actors and writers; has persuaded many of them to pitch into labors fight. Blunt and fortnight, Miss Wilkinson was the first Member of Parliament to de- fend King Edwards marrying Am erican-born Wallis Simpson. j. :. In one speech she said, We say that if woman is good enough to be a mans wife, she. is good enough to take her side by him as his equal in whatever rank of life intended"
 Seasoned Bureaucrat
 Another powerful figure in the new Attlee Government will be tall sparse, hard-headed Arthur Greenwood, recently Minister of Postwar Reconitruction. :. Greenwood was responsible for what little slum clearance the Mac Donald Government undertook. 5. . A member of Churchilfs Cabinet, Greenwood never was known as a radical or a great liberal, is a seasoned bureaucrat, knows his way around government, is an able talker, loves to address mass meet ings, hear the cheers of an ador- ing crowd, will be leaned on heavily hy Attlee for assistance.
 These are some of the person. alities in what will be one of the most interesting and most scrut- inized Governments to rule Eng land in years.

MARSE JOE


 A New York Daily newspaper (the Mirror adds further support today to the widespread belief that Manager Joe Mccarthy of the New York Yankees has bowed out of the baseball picture.
 The paper says Mccarthy will not return to the team from his Buffalo home, where he is recuper- ating from a recent illness. How ever, the report is unconfirmed
 Mccarthy offered to resign a week ago due to poor health, but after a talk with President Larry MacPhail agreed to go to his home for a rest and think it over.

skip over, and don't read these
row-on-row of figures about what
it is costing to run the Govt. and
the States. If the paper says there
are 2 million more folks than nec-
essary on the taxpayers back and
they are pullin' down around 1000
million in salaries a year, not
counting their swindle sheets. no
body murmurs.
1t is more fun to read the fun

lion, what of it? Taxes are not
due for while and maybe the
other guy win Have to pay IL any
way, and especially if the money
is being spent in Alabama which
is far away, if you happen to live
in Idaho or So. Dakota.
Folks are fed up on figures, but
they are hot for pictures; so give
them pictures, funnies or any
kind. If the papers say the Direc-
tor of Uplift gets 10 thousand
year, and free gas, nobody stirs,
but if you would paint the gents
picture on the door of his shiny
car, with his salary beneath same,
folks would open an eye. And the
mayors car, and a million others,
paint all of them-and with pic
lures. Let everybody see what
the people on the taxpayers back
looks like. Let folks see via pic
lures versus figures; it might
clear the atmosphere.
