the umpires came in. =
Everybody in the ball park saw,
or at least thought they saw, the o
old hidden ball trick pulled on
Benton at first. But Umpires
Veazey and QUITS didn't, and all
the arguments of the Clinton in
field couldn't convince them, eth
err. so.
After the series of little CONVEX
sations between the doughty
gentlemen in serge and the Samp-..
son county out were over, Benton
stole second. Hardisky then raped
out his only hit of the evening to-
score the fleet Billy, and all o
ing activities were over.
But here had been some beforsv.
hand, and how. After the Blues
had broken the ice against starter
Roy Lamb In the top of the fourth
with one run, the Pirates came
back to slam Charley Shubeck
around for three in the fifth and
four in the sixth. -
Lamb led off the fifth with a
triple off the left field wall. Mus
cumeci reached first on a double
error by Marsh. the Biue's first
sacker. Lamb scored on this play
Benton beat out an infield hit, and
Muscumeci, who had moved to
third on Marsh's two miscues,
tripped across the plate. Harry
Bridges brought in Benton with a
double, Of the two he hit last
night. That ended the fifth inning
scoring.
The Pirates collected IA hits
off Shubeck, and Edwards, who.
relieved him in the sixth, when,
the BUGS made their other four"
runs. In that frame, Bob Stecker~
led off with his second single Of
the night, and Alsnauer and Lamb
both made infie.d hits to fill the
bases. Muscumeci flied out, BRING.
ing in Steckel, and Benton's in..
field hit filled the bases again.
Hardisky flied out to Askew IN
center, and Alsnauer travelled
across the plate. Then Bridges
hit that other double, and two
more scored. That was all for,
Chubeck, and Edwards stifled any,
further scoring attempts by tie
BUGS until the eighth.
Lamb got into trouble in the
seventh, and was replaced by
young Emory Hewlett, who lasted
for n out. Andrews then pulled
the Pirates out of the jam, and ala
lowed only the tying run in the
eighth. The Blues had scored five
times in the seventh.
Tonight, the Pirates run over to-
Clinton to wind up the series. No.
body except Nate Andrews has the.
slightest idea who will start the
game. 1t might even be the Pirate
chief himself. He looked good last

437,997,000 GALLONS
OF GASOLINE IN 1916

Motor vehicle usage as measur-
ed by gasoline consumption,
showed a big increase during
1916, according to Coleman W..
Roberts, President of the Carolina
Motor Club.
Mr.. Roberts repoNed that dur
ing the past year total of 49,
$4,000 gallons of gasoline were
consumed for highway use in this
state. an increase of 155, 625 900
gallons or 35.5 per cent over
1945.
"For the nation as a whole"
Mr.. Roberts said, "motor vehicles
burned up the huge total of 49,
339, 100000 gallons, gain Of
more than 6,5OO,OOO,OOO gallons,
or 1873 percent over the proceed
ing year." ----
california led all the states in
the amount of gasoline used by
motor vehicles, followed by New
York and Pennsylvania. Biggest
percentage increase was register
ed by Nevada with 1876 percent
climb in gasoline consumption
during the year."

HINTS
To HOmemakers

Better late than early is the
advice of the U. S. Department
of Agriculture plant scientists
when it comes to gathering roses.
Recent studies show that blooms
cut in the late afternoon-about
S o'clock-keep longer than those
cut in the early morning. This is
because leaves and stems have
more carbohydrates at the end of
a sunny day.
Plant scientists offer these tips
to prolong the life of cut roses;
Use a sharp knife to emove the
blooms from the bushes and make
a long slanting cut. A smooth
cut surface allows the water to
flow easily into the stem. A long
slant to the cut prevents the alb
sorbing surface from being closed
off if the end of the stem happens
to press against the bottom of
the base. The first step in con-
ditioning rose after it has been
cut is to get the bloom full of
water. To do this remove the
leaves on the lower part of the
stem because they decay in water
and promote the growth of bac-
terra which plug up the tubes and
cause the flowers to wilt for lack
of water. Most of the water is
absorbed at the base of the stem,
very little going through the
leaves. For this reason there is
no advantage to plunging the
roses up to their necks in water.
As for the chemical substances,
such as aspirin and quinine, which
are sometimes used in an effort
to prolong the freshness of roses,
the scientists say tests have failed
to show that any of these are no
ticeably effective.
The second step in conditioning
