Facts important to
Non-Citizen Vets

Mr.. Gust E. Adamson
Commander, Post No 1913
Veterans of Foreign Wars
Box 842
Libby, Montana
Dear Sir:
Wartime legislation which pro-
vides for an expeditions and great
ly simplified procedure for the
naturalization of alien veterans of
World War II, will expire on De-
cember 81, 1896 This covers only
those veterans with honorable ser
vice in the Military or Naval For
ces of the United States prior to
December %, 1945. Many non-citi-
zen veterans may now be eligible
for naturalization under this Act,
but might be unable to meet the
requirements for naturiZation under
the general law. In view of this
fact, it is believed you will be rem
dering a service to your community
and the non-citizen veterans by
bringing this matter to their at
tention
Among the more important ex-
emptions from the usual naturaliza-
ton requirements, this Act pro-
vides that:
mo declaration of intention
(first paper) is required,
2.-No proof of residence in the
United States for any specified per-
iod is necessary,
3.-Ability to speak English is not
required,
4.-Petitioner is not required to
sign petition in his own handwrit-
ing,
5.-No educational tests need be
taken, and,
6.-No fees are charged.
Alien veterans of World War II
who are interested in availing them
selves Of the benefits of the above
mentioned Act should contact the
office of the u. S. Immi-
grafton and Naturalization Service
without delay for necessary appli-
cation blanks and complete in

Police Escort Umps From
Park As Fans Mill around
Ousted From Park
In Second; Fans En-
ragged At Decisions

The Pirates lost to Sanford, 9 to
5, last night at Legion stadium
despite the belligerent vocal sup
port of the some 1900 fans who
made a hurried police call neces-
sary to escort the Umpires Roper
and Mann, safely out of the park
and into town, after the game./
The umpires were booed by the
local fans throughout the contest
and the fans were very disguised
with the way in which the men in
blue called the game. Especially
Clarence Roper, who called balls
and strikes. Roper ousted Man
ager Gus Britain in the second in
ming, when the Pirate boss went
out to quiet George Brooks, who
was having quite an argument
with Roper on a called ball.
The crowd was milling around
the entrance to the stadium after
the contest and Britain, fearing
some harm might come to them at
the hands of the enraged fans asked
the Police Department to escort
the umpires into town.
Almost everything happened in
the game. which saw the Spinners'
power hitters pole out home runs
that gave them the tilt.
The pitching problem for Viii.
mington became more desperate
as George Brook, their surprisingly
ace, was battered out of the box
in the eighth after giving up two
successive homeruns = nj by
Nesselrode over the left field bar,
rier, and the other across the right
field fence by Pugh.
Buddy Holt Tipped the last part
of the eighth, but looked so wild
that third baseman Roy Lamb took
the hill, setting down the Spinners
in the ninth with no hits.
For the first time in the Tobacco
State League season there were no
errors in the game. Andy Cullen
and Bob Skinner continued to play
their exceptional defensiveN game
for the locals, with Cullen also do
ing his share of the hitting, getting
three for four.
The Pirates clash with the San,
ford team again tonight at 7:45,
and jenkins will probably take the
hurting chores for Wilmington.

SENIOR LEAGUE
PLAYS TONIGHT

Two upper bracket softball
teams tangle against weaker op-
ponents tonight in the Class A Soft
ball League for the games at 7
and $3.50 o'clock at Robert Strange
park. Whites Ice Cream, third
place club in the loop, meets the
Policemen in the initial tilt, and
Spofford Mills hard-hitting bat
tiers will try to solve the hurting
of Heiden. Biggs, or Rowan in the
nightcap.
A. L. King, takes the mound for
Whites, and should have little
trouble in setting down the Police
men. Ned Braswell, "Hunker"
Benson, Lee, and Nick Gieschen
r the big sluggers for Whites,
whom Carrigan or a new hurler
will have to stop completely to
win for the Police.
Hugh Ballard is expected to take
the rubber for Spofford, and ne
could possibly upset A. C. J.. An
other interesting affair in the Sec
ond contest brings together the
two hardest hitters in the league,
King and LinWood Rowan.

American Legion Juniors
Play In Goldsboro Today
Club Will Be Seeking
To Win Fourth Game
In Eastern Section

With the Eastern Title of North
Carolina in sight the Wilmington
American Juniors pack up for their
return trip to Goldsboro today,
where they will try to pro,ong an
impressive three game winning
streak.
Futrelle May Hurl
Coaches Leon Brogden and Tom
Davis may send Duncan Futrelle
to the mound for the locals, but
there is a possibility that the two
mentors are saving him for Fair
mont next week. Some other I'm
tried pitcher might get his chance
at the Goldsboro nine, which Will
mington trounced, 10 to 4, Wednes-
day.
The hitting power of the locals
has taken them through to their
first three games, but if their
fielding doesn't improve they are
likely to drop out of the Eastern
title race Paul Horton and Homer
Brewer have been doing a good
job at second base and third, j. C..
Price, shortstop, has not measured
up to his splendid play in the High
School season, that had many peo-
pie picking him the best shortfield-
err in the Eastern Conference. He
has already made more errors in
three American Legion games
than he did during the complete
MINIS baseball year.
Austin And Gibson Lead Hitters
Jim Gibson and Mike Austin,
two players who did not see much
action for the conference winners,
have been hitting at a terrific
pace thus far. These may be regu-
lars for the Wildcats next year.
Levy Heath is the best catcher
of the Eastern circuit, in compari-
son against the locals opponents
so far, and the Legion club is def
nitely lucky to have him behind
the plate to steady the hurlers.
If Wilmington beats Goldsboro
again, the Tobacco City boys are
eliminated from the championship
race.

a fast one, Roper called it a ball

I had better stop those fellows"
He dashed out to stop the argu-

promptly ordered from the park

Umpire Roper lost his temper
with Brooks and took out his fury

reprimand Gus. L think Roper
was too hasty on ordering the Pr
rate out of the park.

sion adjusts the maunot of the a.
wards to meet current costs of liv-
ing.
Last month as a result Of the re-
cent special session of the LegiSla-
ture the maximum amount which
any recipient could receive was
raised from $40 to $50. This meant
tha- any recipient who had reach
ed the maximum of $40 could now
receive amounts which were re-
quired to meet his need up to $50.
This applied to approximately
% 900 recipients who had, prior to
the August special session of the
Legislature, reached the maximum.
The average award to recipients
OF Aid for Aged on January i,
1945 was S29.61. The average a.
ward at the beginning of Septem-
Der, 1916 was $32.62. This is an
increase of S3.01 during that per-
iod. The present increase in the
food and clothing allowance, plus
the increase TO recipients who are
already receiving the maximum of
$40 will bring the average up to
approximately $500.
