Of the Pan-American Union in

Miss Matilda Phillips, now retired
but still living in Washington at
the Mendoza Apartments, he was
to become familiar with the leading

AN unprecedented increase in re-

Mr.. Murphy said. "Our mail has
been heavy during the entire sum-

stream of visitors even during the
hottest days. The demand Tor
pamphlet information has been the
greatest in our history" AS director
of the Pan American Unions Pavll-

ia 1889 and 1910, he received letter
of merit for having arranged a pro-

In Demand as Speaker.
Mr.. Murphy's eloquent advocacy
OF Pan American good neighbor
policies, plus his ready smile and
engaging humor have endeared him
as a speaker to club, fraternal and
educational groups in this city and
in almost every State.
His steadily increasing knowledge
OF the Latin American Republics
In the past 18 years has made him
valuable to the various Embassy
staffs. The Ecuadorian govern
ment has bestowed upon him its
Order AL Merito, the first member
of the Pan American staff so hon.
ored.
Sometimes referred to as "the
Pan American Unions Chesterfield,
Mr.. Murphy is a familiar figure
both behind the scenes and out

of distinguished guests at the Pan

American concerts in its superbly
beautiful Aztec garden.

throughout the Western Hemi-

pate every possible care, attention
and courtesy that Mrs Carnegie
could possibly desire at our hands. !"
This was a privilege indeed to the
eager-eyed lad from Bradford, Pa,
whose hero worship of Abraham
Lincoln and Andrew Carnegie had
begun when he first became IA
miliar with their pictures upon the
walls Of the Carnegie Library in
his home town, where he used to
study his lessons during the bitter
winters because it was too cold in
his widowed mothers home. Thus
began for him a cherished friend
ship with this great and good wom-
an which lasted until her death.
When he told her of this early
period in his life, her instant reply
was:
How this would have pleased
Andrew. He was a poor young man
himself. Why when he was court
ing me, he owned but one white
shirt, which had to be washed be-
tween his visits"
Among Mr.. Murphy's treasured
memories are q weekend visit to
Mrs. Carnegie's New York nome at
2 East Ninety-first street, and the
letters she wrote him long -hand
when has was a staff sergeant with
the 10th Tank Battalion outfit dur
Ing World War II. A typical one

Mrs. Carnegie used to stand be-

greatly appealed to her.

The
Sporting Thing
by bf

Ontario has weighed the situation and has
decided to enter the Northwest Fourth of July
Baseball Tournament
,,, So that calls for slight change in this
columnist's prediction as to how the various
teams will finish when the smoke of the three
day tournament in Seattle is cleared.
The change, however, does not affect the
Portland Vets whom we believe will surely take
the honors despite fears that Portland mines
have never Jared well in tournament play.
Pressing them will be the Seattle Nisei Vets
Western Giants and Hood River, in that order.
Valley All-Stars Spokane, Ontario and the
representative team from the Northwest Times
League probably won't finish the meet.
If the Travellers make the grade as N. W.
Times representative, ONE good moundsman
will put them very much in the running.
Just remember the Portland Vets.
