On Being Vigilant

That the price we pay for liberty
is eternal vigilance may seem like
old stuff to some Of us. We are
prone to relax after being vigilant
for five years during q ha,r1 war.
Like the next man, we pay more
attention to signs OF optimism than
to those danger signals that are
likely to call us to vigilance.
AS modern-day Americans, we in
dicate by our actions and our inter-
ests that we are concerned about a
lot of things-but perhaps least con-
cerned about playing Paul Revere
roles. Let Samuel Adams and John
Hancock and Thomas jefferson and
Patrick Henry and A. Lincoln and
all the others stay in their history
books. We won our freedom in
1776. and we've kept it since. So why
take the trouble to worry about be-
ing vigilant in 1947?
Take the Trouble
During the war we were told what
to be vigilant against, and much Of
what we were fighting for. Even
particular freedoms were enumer-
ated. We knew too, which particu-
!ar n oic,alors we're giving us trouble.

a lot of mound work last season
but ended up at third base because
of his power at the bat. He hurled
four innings against the New Bern
club and allowed four singles.

This Week
BY o COOK
Star Sports Editor

Ralned out in Smlthfleld yeSter-
day, the Wilmington Pirates re-
turn home to resume their prac-
tice sessions at the American
Legion Stadium today.
The Buccaneers enter their Sec
ond week of exhibitions Tuesday
night with three games carded for
the week at the Legion Stadium.
Tuesday night the Charges of Nate
Andrews will clash with the Al
bany, N. Y, club of the Eastern
league. The New Workers., who
trained at Brunswick, Ca. are
enroute home. This contest will
be called at 7:45 o'clock.
The famous Bearded Beauties Of
the House of David have been
booked to appear here Thursday
night. A large crowd of fans are
expected to turn out for this game.
The locals will have an opportunity
to see the Bearded Beauties dis
rlay their famous pepper" game.
The local fans, especially the old
er ones, will also get a chance to
again see an old favorite of theirs
in the David lineup, whiskers and
all. Jimmy Woods, will be remem-
'hered as a hot corner man for the
Piedmont League Pirates of sew
eral years ago. Jimmy has a lot of
friends here.
Saturday night the Kinston
Eagles of the Coastal Plans loop
will play here. The BUGS will re-
turn the game at Kinston Sunday
afternoon.
Andrews said yesterday after
noon that he is well pleased with
his charges. 1--WE had some mighty
good experience in the New Bern
SERIES" he said. Nate is still
troubled with the mound staff. Il
have plenty Of boys and I think
perhaps all they need is a little
experience" he continued by add
ing, 81 am not going to predict
we will be on top at the very
start, but 1 do say that we will
have a winning ball club"
Big Nate said he was almost
sure of his starting lineup, but
refused to name the boys. The
pirates have a flashy keystone
combination consisting Of Fred
IMusumeci at short and Frank Di
at second, but Eddie Hardi-
sky is pushing Di Prima hard for
the keystone slot. Harry Bridges
seems to have the initial sack as
his own. Andy Poklemba, last
Years first baseman has arrived
in camp and will probably be
shifted to the outfield. Bob Steckel
has clinched the hot corner posi-
ton. This bespectackled lad has
displayed beautiful form on THIRD
and his quick pickups OF ho'
grounders and Tightening throws
Ito first have been outstanding.
Hargrove Davis, John Musco'

berth. looks plenty good with big
Bill Alsnauer and Jim Station, las
YEARS receiver handling the work
behind the plate. Station has moi
been placed in the lineup so far,
but Skipper Andrews is expecting
great things from the veteran Sta
