HAZEL
EYES
~ HAZEL BRANNoN

At the end of every story a news
paper writer puts $50" denoting the
end of the story.
Occasionally there must be written
stories of deaths and misfortunes
to our friends in the community.
This week we wrote 80" for Mr..
Eugene Cole, u personal friend
and counsellor.
Ten years ago when we came to
Durant to make our home Mr.. Cole
was the first citizen of Durant to
bid us welcome -. to make us feel
at home. Always he encouraged us
with a word or a joke when the
going got rough.
In our early struggles to get the
Durant News on its feet and make
it a going concern MI. Cole along
with Mr.. John Howard proved to
be the best friends who pointed out
the brighter side of things that
every cloud had a silver lining, SO
to speak.
Mr.. Cole was a public spirited man
who could always be counted upon
to give his endorsement to and work
for anything that was for the better
ment of Durant and its people. He
loved Durant and gave it the best he
had. No more could be asked of
any man.
If you knew of a group OF men
who owned 10000 acres of idle land
on which they were paying taxes
but not receiving any revenue
and if it were possible for these men
with planning and q little work to
realize from 100000 to one million
dollars additional income from this
land -. what would you think?
That is just the situation in Holmes
county, according to an article by
Mr.. A. p. Carroll, who in his job
with the Soil Conservation Service,
Is continually trying to raise the
level of income to the Holmes county
farmer.
We suggest those of you with idle
land by all means turn to page three
of this paper where you see just
what MI. Carroll says about idle
land in this county.
The reason we carry the articles
written each week by the County
Agent, the Home Demonstration
Agent and the Soil Conservation
Service is not just to fill space .
it is because Holmes county Is an
agricultural county -. and anything
that helps the Holmes county farmer
helps everyone in the county -.
business and professional alike.
These articles definitely help the
farmer and his family to make more
of everything they have on the farm.
This paper is happy that we are a
medium which serves our farm
friends and hope they will take
advantage Of these articles every
week by reading them and putting
into practice those practical to their
individual use.

In one of the best and closest
games, the Spicer Unit team,
champions of the l945 Local IL
league, edged out a new but de-
termined team from the Toledo
Industrial Rubber Unit, by the
score of 3 to 2. Paul Semore
struck out six Spicer batsmen
while allowing them only three
hits. However, three errors by
the Rubber players accounted
for the difference in the score.
Gunner Walstrom pitched
tight ball for the Toledo Scales
and allowed the Acklin Unit one
hit while his teammates collect
ed l3 hits for a l3-to-1 victory
The one hit allowed, however,
turned out to be homerun by
Stan BartkoWski, of the Acklin-
ties.
The DeVilbisS nine hammered
the ball mercilessly and trounced
the Willys outfit, 13 to 4. But
the hastily formed WHY'S team
also showed we'll at the plate
and collected 10 bingles, but
they were widely scattered.
The PAC team showed we'll
when they took a hard-fought
game from the highly rated
Champion Spark Plug nine. The
score was II to 5, but the game
was closer than the score indi-

triple and scored two men in
the fifth inning.
The following is the batting
order which Local IL used in
the opening contest: Pete Sew

'Lich+e Licked
By Golf Bell

Cloid (Curley) Lichte, ace
golfer of Richard Gosser's Inter
national staff who has been
lording if over all comers around
Local IL for the past few years
is off his golf game these days
according to authenic reports to
the JOURNAL.
Lichte who shoots in the low
80s met his downfall on the No.
13 green at Heather Downs on a
recent Sunday and required five
puts to sink the gotta percha
pill.
To prove that his slipping was
not just due to the superstition
that attaches to the number 13,
two weeks later he required
nine strokes to make a par three
hole at the same golf course and
this time on No. green.
Lichte is now limiting broadly
to his fellow golfers that he will
welcome any donations that they
may care to make towards the
purchase of new putter, or an
examination at some reputable
oculist.

More shelter houses are IN

municipal golf courses and
six of them would not be too
many for the large number
of golfers in our city. There
are 13 baseball diamonds
here and the number should
be at least so. Softball dla-
monds are at a premium
With 40 now available, the
number should be increased

Gizzord Shod
Are Spawning

Gizzard shad according to
their habit were spawning with
the white bass last week about
the shores of Ohio's inland lakes.
While the spawning time and
methods of the shad are nearly
identical to those of the white
bass, there is a vast difference
between the two species in other
ways.

Season Opens

White bass began their spawn
ing run about the walls of Ohio's
inland lakes late last week, con-
firming the prediction by fish
management agents of the Ohio
Division of Conservation that the
season would open early this
year. From middle TO late May
is the normal spawning time.
Spurn1ng mans attempts to
protect them, white bass open
and close their own seasons in a
manner of speaking. They refuse
to be caught on hook and line in
any great quantities except on
rare occasions.

Red Cross Drive

Opening of the Red Cross annual drive
for funds this week again calls to our atten-
ton the continued responsibility for all of
us to support this worthy undertaking
which still is needed at home and abroad
under the conditions which prevail in
world where peace and order remained to
be secured.
So far as the Red Cross activities are
concerned, the war still goes one. Thou
sands of American troops in Europe and
Asia still require the special services
which the organization rendered through
out the war and which il still gives TO our
armed forces in all parts of the world.
II seems scarcely necessary to detail
the many achievements of the Red Cross
in the light of the splendid record which
it made for itself during the war. In peace
or war il needs our support as we need its
services. Give generously when you are
contacted in your shops and homes by the
Red Cross solicitors.

GIN Holds The Line

AS the GM strike moved into its tIt-
teenth week, the giant corporation showed
very little signs of weakening and still
maintained the obstinate position which
has marked its conduct throughout the
long course of negotiations, both before
and since the strike.
There can be no doubt that the General
Motors Corporation has some motive in It's
consistent refusal to consider each and
every proposal made it by the union. What
that purpose can be is easily surmlsed, but
one thing is certain it bodies no present or
future good for the employees of the COM
pany.
Eventually, the strike will be settled,
if the corporation has any desire to get its
share of the nations business But in the
meantime, the workers who are the OBJ
iects of GINS malice are losing millions OF
dollars in wages, the corporation loses mil
lions in profits and the nation is rendered
poorer because the company has the power
to resist all efforts to restore peace to the
embattled industry.
1t becomes more apparent IMAM SNSh
that the GM strike which has started on its
second hundred days could have been
settled some time ago had President Tru-
man taken a strong position and forced
the corporation to come to terms with the
union on the basis of the solution proposed
by the President himself.
The fact that the President failed to
use his influence after making a good be-
ginning, plus his continued failure to act
up to the present time cannot help but inn
press us as being evidence of weakness and
unwillingness to risk further steps which
might conceivably cut down on the gifts"
which big businessmen contribute" to pO-
jitical parties, even the Democratic party.
Every day that the GM strike con-
tinues means another day of suffering and
privation for the GM strikers, because
President Truman does not have the same
degree of courage in facing the giant GM
corporation as he evidenced in riding along
with Winston Churchill in his recent state
ments in the Presidents home state.
