ever, this situation will straighten
itself out at the end of this season
by either the transfer of the fran
chise or Of the ownership.
Not Convinced of Need.
The National Leaguers, too, are
not yet convinced there is room for
two major circuits as presently con-
stituted. They doubt that there is
room in one city for two clubs-even
New York or Chicago. and frankly
are puzzled about locating 18 finan-
cially successful franchises. 1t is no
secret that the older loop would like
to see the Cardinals leave Chicago,
but even if the clubs owners were
willing no one knows where the
franchise could go and the league
certainly would not do anything to
make it easier for the f1oundering
Rockets to get foothold in Chicago
But it's the National Leagues
move in New York and the Maras
are meeting it by yesterdays trade.
The Giants never have had such a
poor season as this one, while the
rival All-American club, coached
by Ray Flaherty, is on top in it's
division and has a couple of stars
in Spec Sanders and Buddy Young
to lure customers through the turn
stiles.
Next month will be extremely i'm
portant for pro football in New
York. 1t undoubtedly will shape
the future course of both leagues.
If the All-American can wean away
some of the Giants customers it
should mark the turning point of
the costly squabble between the
two. If they fail it could be the
beginning of the end for the younger
organization.

Roundup Juniors

! Monday, the local Legion nine will
tangle Sunday afternoon against the
Roundup Junior Legion team at 2:3O
p. M, here in Laurel. A good game
is in store for the fans, since both
these teams seem to be evenly
matched in all departments. Round
up lost to Billings Legion last week
being set back by greater pitching
experience, bud showed lots of scrap
and good fielding.
Harry Ruff will get the pitching
assignment with little Jimmy Graft
slated to do the catching. Ruff has
unusual control on the mound and is
not expected to give up any free
passes, while Graft has proven him
self to be a coming catcher. Jim
Phillips will hold down first and
has been developing a little pitching
ability as well, and is slated to do
the relief pitching in Sundays game
should it ben ecessary. Leo Yeager
at second, Paul Void at third and
either Wayne Hageman or Loe Zahn
at short will complete the infield
lineup. Jim Wilson at center field,
Bob Times in right, with Dick Mel
son or Buddy Fritzle in left will
get the outfield assignments.
A return game in Roundup the
following Sunday is scheduled.

THIS WEEK AT ZION
GARDENS

At this writing the calendar
and the weather seem to be I'M
able to agree as to the season
cold, cloudy days don't con-
tribute much to spring fever,
but Spring is here - the Mar
tin Scout has been around and
the sun did warm up things a
little yesterday.
Our small houses are full of
tomato plants that will soon be
placed out in the cold frames
to retail, and cabbage and
cauliflower plants are harden
ed outside already. More are
seeded for late corners, as are
the bedding plants, such as
saliva, snaps, petunias, alys-
sum, etc., We are growing
every one of these that we can
find room for and our houses
are bullying now. Geraniums
never were better, but from
all indications these will soon
be sold out, just as was the
case last year.
Because we are growing so
much we will not have room to
set aside any plants this year.
Reservations take space and
time, and we haven't enough
of either. Much as we would
like to offer this service to our
customers it will not be pos
sible this year. We suggest
early buying to assure choice
plants.
1t you want some nice sweet
peas this year, get the seeds in
now. They must get a good
start before hot weather. Lark
spur can have the same treat
ment.
Get in some garden peas as
soon as the spot can be pre-
pared for them.
You are safe now to get the
mulch off your perenials and
pansises. Don't be surprised if
lots of your hardy plants died
this winter. Frost and thaws
so often bring troubles to
them.
Our pansies are uncovered
and a few days of sun will
bring them along fast. They
can be moved any time now
and we have enough for local
demand.
We suggest repairing your
lawn now. Get out all the OBJ
noxious weeds that you can.
Top dress bad spots and sprin-
kle on some fresh seed. A
sprinkle of Vigaro just before
a shower is helpful too.
Flowing is in order for most
locations. Much of our area
is sand. It is a little soon though
to get into heavy or alley soil.
If handled while too wet, hard
clods will result.
The weather man says "dan-
gerous Winds for this week.
He may be wrong but if you
have hot beds started be sure
the wind doesn't blow them
off.
