Casino Bar Has Opening

The first unit of the modern Casino building opened to the public last Friday bringing Ko- diak bar and cocktail lounge with appointments that rank it as one of the finest in the terri tory.
 Designed by owner A. J. Col lins and incorporating features gleaned from ? trips to the States, the bar is housed in Ko- diak's first poured concrete structure.
 The layout consists of 3 mod ern sound pIoofed restrooms at the front, an oval leather trim med bar with direct access to ! the basement, and a dance floor and booths at the back. Features include subdued light ing from units in a dropped cell : ing, wall. of striated plywood, luxurious curved booths with
 fire proof upholstery, and an ample dance floor which provides the only public downtown danc- ing spot in the community. An other first is recorded in a "black light" fiuorescent decorative parel on the rear wall.
 The building is completely ar conditioned, automat units providing warmed air from out. side vents.
 Construction has now started on the second unit of the build ing, which will contain kitchen and dining room, which MT. Collins said he expects to have completed in October.

NOTICE
To the Public:

The council committee in charge of Public Utilities wishes to express it's appreciation for the tolerance shown by the citi- zens in the recent apparent water shortage. The low pressure was caused by a break in the line which was difficult to locate due to the fact that the water was working thru gravel to the bay instead of to the surface.
 As you all know we have re- gently acquired the Army dock and the water system that ser we'd 1t. This water supply we have been using to supplement the city system and it is only thru it's use that we have been unable to conserve water im- pounded in the city reservoir.
 Without this supplementary system the city would have been able to supply the regular users and the cannery during the pre-  sent dry period. In fact, the city system would have been entirely dry now. Pipe has been order ed to make a permanent hook up so that in the future at all times whatever portion of the city system necessary may be cut into the dock system to bal ance the demand. We feel you should know this to appreciate the asset you have acquired in getting the dock property.
 To help combat weather con. ditions similar to last winter the Water Department crew has been repacking valve boxes as fast as possible this summer We will in the next few days rebuild the dam which caused formation of a lake below the city reservior. By dong so we hope to catch sufficient of the run from fall rains to enable us to have an emerge ,cy sup ply available to be pumped into the system and the equalization tank thru a short pip line. This will enable us to chlorinate the water instead of using it direct from a lake as we did last winter.

BEHIND
HOME PLATE
By DOUG STEWART

There was a good crowd present
for the opening of Hagerstown's 10
day race meet ON Tuesday afternoon,
but the most crowded spot was the
press box, where the local and out
of-town sports writer's, the Racing
Form chart makers, the telegraph
operator-to say nothing of two ra-
dio announcers, were damned to-
gether like sardines in a box.
Armies Dream, queen of the half
milers," again proved the right to
the title, when she won the feature
event, The Bester Memorial, in con-
vincing fashion, to pay the shortest
price hung up in Hagerstown in a
long time-$240. At one time in the
betting the fleet mare was quoted at
odds of l to 9.
Ever since the Owls ran into their
losing streak (Which they seem to
have finally broken) 1 have been
asked million times, more or less:
whats the matter with the Owls?"
The answer, as I see it, is very
simple. There is nothing the matter
with the Owls that good pitching
won't remedy.
All this talk about the Owls hav-
ing lost their spirit; that their hitting
has dropped off; and that they're
not the same team that they were a
couple of weeks ago, is just plain
apple sauce in my opinion.
l know every boy on the Owls
team and l can honestly say that I
have never met a group of profess
sional players that are more eager
to win than are the entire Owls
squad from Bunny Griffith on down.
It's true, of course, that they are
hard losers-and l for one am glad
that they are. You show me ball
club that takes its losses in stride
and I'll show you a ball club that
will never win a pennant I've seen
these boys in the club house after
they've lost a tough game, either
through their own errors, or through
poor pitching, and they have showed
me by their actions that they felt
the loss just as keenly as the fans
in the stands.
1 meet lot of people day in and
day out and I'm very happy to be
able to report that the majority of
the fans are still behind the Owls
100 per cent, and that they are just
as confident as 1 am that the team
will snap back las this is written
they have played 500 ball on their
present road trip and will definitely
be in the play offs

TUESDAY. August So


A bad fifth inning, in which three
walks, two errors and two singles
produced four runs, cinched Tues
day nights game for Allentown, the
final score being 7-3. Stratton pitch
ed for Hagerstown, and Wargo for
Allentown.
The Owls got off to one-run lead
in the first, on Jenis' triple and
Dresser's double, and they made it
20 in the top half of the third, when
Dresser got his second straight hit,
a three-bagger to center, scoring
Jenis, who got on on a fielder's
choice.
But Wilson's home run in the bot
tom half, with Halkard on base,
tied the score.
Then came the fatal fifth McCor-
mick walked and Wargo sacrificed
him to second. Halkard also walk

strikes, but when Crumling threw
to Jenis in an effort to pick Hal
kard off first, both runners adj
vanced. Smith was then given an
intentional pass, filling the bases.

Keeping Up
With The Owls

AT HARRISBURG
Sunday, August 81

The Owls split their double head
er with the Senators on Sunday
afternoon, to give them an even
break on the four-game series.
Behind the steady pitching OF
Barney Schultz in the nine-inning
first game, Hagerstown hoped on
the offerings of Noel Piercey for IL
hits, good for six runs, to win 6-2,
but they couldn't bunch their six
hits against Phil Duginski in the
seven-inning nightcap, and were
shut out while Harrisburg, who also
got six hits off Bumstead, got theirs
in clusters and came up with six
runs.
First Game
All nine Hagerstown batters got
at least one hit, with Jenis, Dresser
and Humphrey getting two apiece.
Bernie Jenis connected with round
tripper; Heist got triple, and Dad
dario and Dresser had two-baggers.
Schultz was never in serious trouble.
He struck out four, walked two, and
kept the hard hitting Senators in
check, except in the third and eighth
innings, in both of which they scored
one run.
The Owls jumped into a tWo-run
lead in the top of the first inning
and were never headed. They scored
two more in the fifth and their final
two TALES came in the seventh.
Bernie Jenis and Ken Humphrey
each drove in two runs and Hest
accounted for one. The sixth run,
scored by Schultz, came in on an
error by Svinski, the Harrisburg
third baseman. Hagerstown played
errorless ball.
Summary: Hagerstown, CIR. 12H.
OLE. 7LOB; Harrisburg, 2R. GIL. 2E.
Second Game
Although both teams connected
for six hits in the nightcap, Dugin-
ski never allowed more than one
hit an inning, and all of them were
singles, while Bumstead got nicked
for three in the third good for three
runs; four-bagger in the fifth, and
a single and a double in the sixth
that drove in two more TALES. Both
teams played errorless ball.
Hest got three of Hagerstown's
hits-singles in the second, fourth
and sixth-Bumstead got a single
in the third and another in the fifth,
and the sixth hit went to Dresser,
who beat out a bunt in the first
frame. The Owls got the first man
on in the second and third frames,
but couldn't push them around. AS

a matter of fact only one man got
as far as third and that was Hest
in the second. He opened the in
ming with single, went to second
on a wild pitch and moved over to
third while Yeash was being thrown
out at first. But he died there when
Crumling grounded to the shortstop
for the third out
Harrisburg came up with three
runs in the third. With one away
Ankrum singled to right and went
to third on Emery's single to the
same spot. Conyers got walk,
filling the bases. Burns then singled
to center, scoring Ankrum and EN-
cry, with Conyers stopping at sec
ond. Eddie Bumstead then un-
corked a wild pitch, sending Con-
yers to third and Burns to second.
Koerner then flied out to- Heist in
center, with Conyers scoring after
the catch. Griefzu made the third
out when he popped up to Jenis.
The Senators made it 40 in the
fifth on Conyers home run over the
rightfeld wall, and they got their
fifth tally in the sixth, when Griefzu
singled and came home on Alex
Daniels double

ing Smith and when Jenis let Dress
er's throw get away Edwards also
scored. Hecklinger ended the in
ming by striking out.
The Owls picked up their third
and final run in the sixth, when
Yeash singled to left, scoring Hum

AT SUNBURY
monday, August A


With Monday originally scheduled
as an off day, the Owls took adj
vantage of the open date to play
two previously rained out games at
Sunbury. Hagerstown split the
double bill, winning the first game
8 to 0, but losing the second, 8 to Z.
First Game
Charlie Miller pitched and batted
the Owls to 80 shut-out over Sun
bury in the seven-inning opening
game, with Gene Crumling behind
the plate. Heidel and Greco was the
Sunbury battery.
While both teams got five hits,
the Owls were able to bunch theirs.
Miller was the only Hagerstown
batter to get two hits Zone of them
two-bagger) and he drove in one
of Hagerstown's runs and also scor-
ed himself. Hagerstown's other hits
were made by Humphrey, Daddario,
and Yeash. Jenis also drove in a
run, while the third Hagerstown
marker was scored as the result of
an error by the Sunbury shortstop.
Helping the Hagerstown cause were
stolen bases by Daddario and Jenis
and a sacrifice by Heist.

I PHILADELPHIA, July is
/ (LPA) - There was only one
strike in the entire nation that

week. That was the fight of
$1,000 CIO shipyard workers
that entered its fourth week.
Ninteen major yards on all
coasts were paralyzed as MEM

CIO continued heavy picket
lines at every struck yard. U. S.
