Red Cross Group
Hears Mr.. Carter

AT meeting of the committee
on Disaster Preparedness and
Relief of American Red Cross,
which was held at the home of
the chairman, Major Robert F.
Spottswood, he presented his CO.
chairman, Lt.-Comdr. Iceland
Goddard.
Allen Carter, Regional Direc-
tor of the South Eastern Area,
American Red Cross, his assist
ant Leslie Boyd and Miss June
Lonas, representative at large,
were present to coordinate the
policies of the Key West chapter
with that of the National Organ
ization.
Mr.. Carter said, Because of
the geographical relationships of
Key West, we have long since
recognized the vulnerability of
the city in connection with tropi-
cal storms. The Chapter has wise
ly planned in advance for serving
the needs in any eventuality.
We are sure the Disaster Pre-
paredness and Relief Committee
will have adequately modified
the resources of the community
so as to fully meet its responsible
ity. The American National Red
Cross wishes to assure the local
Chapter that it stands ready to
assist in every way possible with
the planning and by supplement
tary personnel and material re-
sources as the needs might re-
quire. !"

Monroe Payments
For Welfare Are
Given In Report

Rev. James H. MacConnell,
member of the District 10 We'll
fare Board, announced today that
he had been advised by State
Welfare Commissioner Leland w.
Hiatt that cash payments to Mon
roe county recipients of public
assistance for the fiscal year end
ed June 80 totaled $164,224.00. OF
this amount, Hiatt had stated,
$114,711.00 was paid to recipients
of old-age assistance, $28,681.00
to recipients of aid to the blind
and $50, $4,000 to recipients of aid
to dependent children.
Pleased With Results
Both the State Welfare Board
and the District Welfare Board,
the Reverend MacConnell said,
were pleased that larger legisla-
tive appropriations in 1915 had
made it possible to relieve much
of the increased need of the aged
and blind resulting from higher
living costs and reduced incomes.
He explained, however, that al
though appropriations for aid to
The Key West citizen. [volume] (Key West, Fla.) 1879-current, 1946-08-09

dependent children were larger
funds had not permitted investi-
cation of new applications filed
after September 80. Applications
for old-age assistance and aid to
the blind are investigated on
practically a current basis.
Reason For Increases
Higher cost of living, loss of
wartime jobs by persons not nor
mally employable and discon-
tinuance of military allowances
were cited by the Reverend Mac
Connell as principal reasons why
the number and need of public
assistance recipients had increas-
ed during the reconversion and
inflationary period.

Democrat Sandlot Baseball in June
Continued from Page D

A suitable grand prize will be awarded to the whining team or teams; for The Democrat proposes to have at least two leagues; one for boys from 10 to 12 years of age; the other from 13 to Is years of age. The fact that 8 boy is already playing on a team, or perhaps in league, will not prevent his chances of playing on the same team, or another team in the Wa terbury Democrat Sandlot Baseball Federation, for games are to be played only once a week on dia- monds provided and assigned by William J. Derwin, Supervisor of Recreation of the Waterbury Park Department.
 Almost every boy in Waterbury is familiar with the grand job that Bill" Derwin has done for more than 10 years, organizing sports for public, parochial and high school boys. They know of his Father Shea baseball league, of his playground leagues, of his Inter- Church Soft ball league, his Sixth Grade League and several other groups = all of which give Waterbury boys, girls and men a chance to play the sport he or she likes best, whether it be basketball, baseball or softball. MT. Derwin and the Park Department are going to be with us, too; that is, they will do everything they can to get THE WATERBURY DEMO- CRAT BASEBALL FEDERATION off to a flying start.
 Ask Your Parents
 The rest is up to you-boys of ten. eleven, twelve, thirteen, four teen and fifteen years of age-AND YOUR PARENTS. Ask Ma or Pa if you may play baseball once a week in The Democrat sandlot league, and you can bet you will get immediate approval.
 You do not have to have a team now to get in the league. Just get together ask your pal Joe or Billy or Frank if he will play on a team with you and before you know it you will have more than enough of your friends to get into the league. Then get an older boy, someone who likes baseball and who likes you-ask him to help you out as coach or manager. That's all there is to it; then all you have to do. is sign an entry blank which will be printed in THE DEMOCRAT, every day, starting TOMORROW, and, before you know it, you will not be carrying your older brothers bat or glove, but will be playing at the "hot" corner, or standing up there, with your bat on your shoulder, waiting for the pitcher to put one in there," so that you can belt it out for a two-bagger, or maybe a home run, if the ball gets away from the outfielder.
 So lets go lads, what do you say? There's always room for one more player, one more team, one more ] league; so get in there and pitch,

 Games Tonight

In the opening games of the American League last Monday there were two major upsets in Time over Benrus and French over Somers, last years league champs, while Eyelet Speciality gave Scovill 8 scare for most of their game. The Time vs. Chase Metal game this week should be the major attrac- tion. Chase Metal has not had any league action, as yet, their game with American Brass having been called off last week by wet grounds. Waterbury Steel Ball has been forced to withdraw from the Ma tional League because operations at their plant have been suspended for an indefinite time, and for that req son one team in that league will receive bye each week. This week 1t is Farrel Foundry which in two starts to date has yet to lose 8 game. Scovill and Benrus will play off their number one opening game that was postponed on Hamilton No. 2, Tuesday night.

odds and Ends

Track and field sports, locally seem to be definitely taking hold: and it seems the day is not far off when Parochial and grammar school boys will have them in the spring as well as baseball. In this connec- tion, it was nice to see Jim Carr as one of the judges at the Crosby Sacred Heart meet last week at the stadium. The well-known insurance man developed several fine Water bury runners, including Eddie De- menske, now 8 Roman Catholic priest, and was always in favor of having the Knights of Columbus sponsor a big field day in this city for embryo Paddocks, Nurmis, Haeggs and Joie Rays Many . boy has natural running or jump ing talent but never knows 1t until brought into action by good coach !.

Crosby Vs. Tech
 Come Wednesday

The Crosby y-Leavenworth base ball duel, slated for the Municipal Stadium on Wednesday, will be the renewal of an old rivalry in scholas- tic baseball, which has existed since the two schools ssarted to meet each other on the baseball field. And it could very easily be classed as the game of the week" in local ScholaS- tic baseball circles-as points to- wards the Al Kelley Memorial Tro- phy and the mythical City Baseball championship will be at stake. Thus far, Leavenworth has taken the football and basketball champion ships and is now aiming to make it a clean sweep by whipping thes Blue and White in baseball. It is our guess that Winnie Synkowich will be Coach Bill Tracy's starter while the Blue and White mentor is liable to start Russ Hansen, his fireball ar- tist, against the Big Red.
 Wilby- -TOrringt0n
 In other contests scheduled at the Stadium this week Wilby will meet Connie Donahue's Red Raiders from Torrington, today at 3:30, and this will be an attempt, on the part of The Green and White to crash back into the Winners Circle, by downing the upstaterS -. Tomor- row Seymour, which was beaten by Tech last week, will travel to the Stadium to meet the Manherzmen. On Wednesday the Crosby-Leaven- worth headliner will be run off at the Stadium while on Thursday Seymour will clash with Wilby . On Friday Sacred Heart will come to blows with St. Mary's Academy from New Haven and Gilbert will meet Crosby on Saturday Yes It's big week in scholastic base ball! The fans will get enough swat for some time to come.
 Heavy rains over the weekend washed out the annual Crosby-Wil- by baseball classic, which was slated for the Municipal Stadium last Saturday afternoon. Both Coaches Tom Purcell and Jack Manher2 were as yet undecided as to when this game will be played as both schools have heavy schedules tt fulfill before June 18th, when tht scholastic season comes to an end Two other Valley League con- tests between Torrington and Naug. atuck and Gilbert and Ansoria were also cancelled.

Cy LiUern1ore
 Gets Chase "Ace''

Upset no little because his many tee-shots off the sixth had not found the cup since 1887, try as he might. Cyrus Hagen Livermore, premier golfer at the Chase Coun- try Club, came through Sunday for the second "ace' at the course within week. Playing with Charley
 Mack, of the Congress Avenue Macks, Livernore sunk his ball on the 118-yard uphill hole, using a 7h iron to turn the trick, the first of his golfing career. Last week, the first hole-in-one of the local season was made by little Jack Prisavage, who nudged his tee shot in with an eight iron.
