Heartiest congratulations to the

Baseball League championship.
My only regret is that | couldn't
give them the write-up they deserve,
particularly the story of the ban
quet last night at which they WE'RE

through, some slip-up, the news re-
lease concerning the banquet failed
TO reach me.
One of the finest things that has
ever been done for the youth of
Washington County was the forming
of this Junior Baseball League and
/ sincerely hope that it will function
next year bigger and better than
ever.

unless they should come together in

Henry Meihs, director of peas
Tenants and Housing Council,
urged Chicago tenants to sign
petitions, saying:
"a critical emergency exists
because of the real estate inter-
ests' refusal to build, and the
failure of city, state and federal
governments to act on a housing
program to meet present needs.
''The only way tenants will get
action is by using action them
selves. Mass public pressure is
necessary; these petitions could
do it."

TORONTO-(ALN)-A nation
wide strike of 10000 packing

the United clearinghouse Workers
(CIO). The Swift plant along with
several other American owned en-

The strike has shut down 81
packing plants in Is cities across
Canada. So far, the governments
only move has been to suggest a
plan whereby the workers would
return to their jobs and their de-
mands would be arbitrated. Strik-
ers' chief demand is a 15c hourly
wage hike. Best pre-strike offer
