Giants To Train
At Phoenix
Next Three Years

PHOENIX, April 11-(SpeciaD-
New York's baseball Giants, having
had a taste of spring training in
Arizona, have decided to return for
at least three more helpings.
Eddie Brannick, secretary of the
club, has announced that the Giants
will return to Phoenix for spring
training in 1948, '49 and so. He
told Lewis E. Haas, general man
ager of the Phoenix Chamber Of
Commerce, that the organization
was very we'll satisfied with training
conditions in Phoenix.
The Giants came to Phoenix for
this seasons spring training after
the Thunderbirds, special events
group of the Phoenix Chamber of
Commerce, extended an invitation
to Horace G. Stonehen, president
Of the team, to visit the area and
determine its suitability for big
league training.
Announcement that the Giants
will return again brings the specu-
lation that perhaps more than two
teams will pitch camps in Arizona
next spring. This year, in addition
to the Giants in Phoenix, the Cleve-
land Indians went through their
early workouts in Tucson. Stone
ham earlier had said he hoped by
next year to see four major league
clubs training in Arizona.

fill it's functions.
If your hall closet seems to be
the acknowledged family dump,
an auxiliary closet is indicated.
This second closet will take care
of the overflow that is left per-
force in the hall closet and give
you a chance to organize the
whole conglomeration. On the
door of the hall closet you might
put up some mems hat racks and
attach an umbrella rack. Have
sturdy rod installed for overcoats
with plenty of hangers and
shelf above it.
Linen closets should be
functional and spic and span.
Shelves of graduated widths
to take care of washcIoths,
pillow slips and guest towels
make for assorted storage.
Wide shelves for sheets, face
towels and bath towels, draw
erS for blankets and bed
spreads and a wide, deep
shelf to take care of comfort
erS in their cases or boxes
will take care of bedding.
A woman's closet needs two
rods set at different heights, one
high enough for evening clothes
and the other lower for daytime
dresses. A shoe rack, deep shelf
for hat boxes and a set of shall
low drawers for underwear and
accessories" provide sufficient
space for the average woman.

cause, according to c. G. Rollins,

at Florence, S. c., this years leaf

New National Highways
Includes Western North
Carolina

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2.-W.D-
The Federal Works agency tonight
announced a program to criss-cross
the nation with a super-deluxe four
lane express highway system 1881
miles long. In North Carolina the
highway would run through Green's
boro, Winston-Salem, Durham,
Statesville, Asheville and Charlotte
Officials of the TWAS public
roads administration estimated it
will take Is to 20 years to COM
plete the super highway system.
The coast will be shared by the
states and the federal government
on a $3.50 basis.
The federal aid highway act
of 1914 provided that a 40, OOO-mile
national highway system be desig-
mated by state and federal high
way officials to connect major
cities by the most direct routes
possible.
This act set aside 81, 500, 900, 900
in federal funds, to be matched
by an equal contribution from
the states, for a $4,000, 900, 900
post war highway program much
of this money will be used on the
projected new express highway
network.
The public roads administration
is now working on a total cost
survey. No estimate of overall
cost has as yet been made because
of currently inflated prices. But
it was obvious that the state and
federal governments will pay
many billions of dollars for the
super highways.
PRA officials termed the project
''the most important in highway
designation since the federal aid
lsystem was established in 1926"

ELLINGTON, Aug. 2-(P)-The
purported suicide note which won

you we're a party to it."

he had written or dictated the
note.
