1t is well received. We could use
some professional boxing matches

sports. I can recall my father
telling me of the horse races that

ity of North Beach. From all ac-
counts, they were big events.
! During the short time l served
in the city government i learned
it takes an enormous amount of
money to operate the city and
give the people necessary i'm
provements. In concluding, from
where l sit, l think the smart
thing to do is lease the city own

Then put a city tax or the equiv

O'NEIL IS MIAMI'S
STARTING HURLER
AGAINST PIRATES
CALIFORNIA SOUTHPAW'
GETS CALL FOR TILT
THURSDAY; FISHER
FOR ORIOLES

Lefty O'Neil, the California
southpaw. will be the starting
pitcher for the Miami Tourists
when they meet the Pirates at
Municipal Stadium, Thursday, at
ais p. m, Manager Dave Coble
announced today. Gene Elliott,
who looked good against the
University of Miami Saturday,
and Dick FarkaS of Ft. Lauder
dale are also likely to work a
few innings,
Pancho Salinero is still slated
TO get the call for the Pirates de
spite his defeat at the hands of
the Red Raiders Sunday when
they raked him for 10 hits and
an so victory.
Coble said Mel Fisher, who
held the Blue Sox to three hits
m his four innings on the mound
Sunday. will probably start
against the Baltimore Orioles,
Saturday. at 5 p. m. Fisher is a
Baltimore boy and would like
nothing better than to take a
crack at his hometown club.
Joe Sylvester, the swarthy Ital-
ian right-hander. looks like the
starting twirler against the Red
Raiders Sunday, but O'Neil, Ell
lott and FarkaS-at least one of
the three-will also be ready,
Manager Bill Gates of the Raid
erS said today that Bo Meador,
who held the Pirates to one hit
Sunday, will start for the home
time.
The Tourists worked out be-
tween light showers today, con-
centrating on their hitting. Coble
is far from satisfied with the
way the boys are meeting the
ball. He losses off the Is hits of
the Tourists Sunday with a
shrug. pointing out that there
were too many singles, and many
of them were loopers, and pop
flies that nobody caught. Scream
ing liners for extra bases is what
Coolies wants and he has the
Tourists batting hours at a time.
Gerald Beck, impressive rookie
third baseman from Miami, re-
turned to camp today. He has
been having bad ankle treated
at his home, but is now in top
shape.

EDITORS NOTE: Manager
Acevedo is referring to the story
of Sundays game between the
Blue Sox and the Miami Tour
lists. The wish that the Raiders
could have been playing the
Tourists instead of the SoX was
expressed after pointing out that
the Raiders were hot" Sunday,
beating the Pirates, so.
! The writer meant no offense to
the Sox, but believes the fans are
entitled to better baseball from
the team which leads the Winter
League. He believes the Sox are
capable of better baseball than
they showed Sunday and hopes
his kidding comments will help
to inspire them to prove it.
Sportingly,
JOHN VOSBURGH.

Manager Will Be With Orioles
Saturday; Frierson, Dahlgren Stars

When the Baltimore Orioles
come here to play the Miami
Tourists Saturday at Municipal
Stadium, their rookie catcher,
Bob Lem, will be of particular
interest to Manager Dave Coble
of the Tourists.
Lem is a protege of Coble's
and batted 1896 for him last year
when Coble managed the Gads-
den, Ala, club. Lem didn't know

when Coble took him over, but
he now is no little sensation as
catcher.
The Baltimore NeWs-Post of
March II carries a picture Of
Lem with the following outlines;
IMPRESSIVE - Bob Lem, a
catcher who hit 1886 last season
with Gadsden. Ala, is making a
big hit with Manager Tommy

Of course, two of the big names

Editor, The Citizen:
Let it be known to your John
Vosburgh that he can get any of
the baseball clubs in this city and
pay their players a decent salary
and give them just two weeks
with nothing to do but eat and
sleep and practice baseball every
day, and neither he nor many
of the onlookers" will wish that
any other team was playing.
This is not, an excuse but an
answer to his ungentle and in

Editor:
AS a member of the Montrose
P.-T.A., and the mother of two
children in the Montrose School,
I would like to write in defense
of the School which has been un-
der what seems to me very unfair
attack by local newspaper. Ex-
cept for a few crying physical
needs, Montrose School is not
school that Montgomery County
needs to be ashamed of.
We parents are encouraged by
Mrs. Howes, principal, and Mrs.
Houlten, primary teacher, to visit
the school as often as possible.
Physically the school needs much
Improvement; but the fine cooper
alive spirit, love and interest in
their school evidenced by the
teachers and children, in spite of
these physical handicaps is Gre
dit to all.
The principal, Mrs. Howes, in
my opinion is doing a fine job.
Where firmness is needed she is
firm, but with a firmness born of
desire for the we'll being of her
children. Mrs. Houlten is splendid
with the primary group and great
ly admired by her small charges.
Teachers are surely not to blame
for inadequate heating and plumb
ing in a school building. I believe
Montrose School has been under
attack before because of interests
that would profit by seeing this
property used for commercial pur-
poses. Perhaps the same sort of
objective is in the background here
1t seems to me that Montrose
School, because of it's fine spirit
and work is already a credit to
the community, and that with a
little financial help its physical
aspects could be made a credit to
Montgomery County.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Elymer E. Frazier
