With the winter social season
being planned by all organizations
in town, it is hoped that, especially
the women's groups, will make a
special effort to plan activities to
include the staff of the Sanatorium.
The girls and women here, by
the very nature of their work and
the secluded location of the hos
pital, must find life after duty
hours pretty dull and recreation
limited. Let's include them in our
plans, not only to local activities,
but let's 60 out there, too. Make
them feel at home and one of us.
l know from my own experience
that they have been left out of
my plans simply because l did not
think of it, and because my ac-
quaintance has been of casual
nature, but it shall be different
from now on. We are missing
something when we neglect to Gull
tivate the nurses and the staff of
the Sanatorium, because many of
them are fresh from the Outside.
with the most recent viewpoints
and ideas. Don't let us get the
idea that we will be comforting
any favors upon these people, be-
cause they may not care to join
in our activities as a group. WE
need THEM and their fresh APP
proach for our development and
culture.

what the outgoing city admins

FIRST TO BE CONSIDERED is
the fact that they are leaving a
surplus of $4,000 in the bank in
stead of deficit. This is in addi-
ton to the $4,000 which is set
aside as first payment on the
school bonds.
THE CHILDREN are moving in

Small Boat Harbor is now owned
and controlled by the city. The
federal government will soon start
operations to dredge this harbor
and fill the city dump.

Loyo|a Tightens Race
lin Mason-Dixon With
Victory Over A. U.
BY the Associated Press

Hampden-Sydney, idle in the con-
ference last week, remained top dog
in the Mason Dixon basket ball race
today on the basis of its unbroken
string of seven victories.
Until Saturday night. when they
had their wings clipped by Loyola
(62-4D, the Eagles of American
University could have overhauled
the pacs-setting Tigers. Going into
the game, they had won six loop
starts without loss, but the defeat
dropped them to third place.
Loyola's mastery over the strong
team from Washington supports the
preseason dope that Lefty Reitz'
defending champion still is the
team to beat for the crown.
Since the Greyhounds and Hamp-
den-Sydney, don't meet during the
regular season skirmishing, however,
it's possible that both might wind
up the campaign undefeated with
the showdown coming in the con-
ference tournament March 1-3.

Record 179 Night 1i|ts
For National League
Set by '49 Schedule
By the As,oeioted Press

NEW YORK. Jan. 24.-The l79
night games scheduled ey the Ma
tional League make the greatest
number ever to be played by the
senior loop. The total represents
80 per cent of the entire schedule.
Last year 173 games were played
under the lights, but these included
several late season tits resched-
uled from the afternoon.
Brooklyn is responsible for the
increase as the Dodgers, who usual
ly restrict themselves to IA night
games, decided to make it 81. st.
Louis, as usual, will be the rlnglead-
er with 43 games under tile Sports
mans Park arcs.
There will be very little day bail
at st. Louis. With the exception OF
Sundays and holidays, only 16 week
day afternoon dates will be played
bv the Cards at nome. But the
Cards have been doing that for years
with great success at the gate.
Cubs Still Holding Out.
The Boston Braves, rabid night
hall devotees, list 80 after dark and
the Philadelphia Phillies have 80.
Pittsburgh lists Is, Brooklyn u and
the New York Giants and Cincln-
natl Reds each IA.
Chicago, the lone holdout against
the night invasion in the majors,
continues to shun the arcs. They'll
play Is on the road.
Like the American, the National
will have an early opener, April IL,
when only one game will be played.
On that date the champion Boston
Braves will entertain the Phillles.
The reason for this is that April
10, when all the other teams open,
is Patriots Day at Boston. The
Braves management, unlike the Red
Sox last season, do not want to play
a morning and afternoon double
header opening day. Hence they'll
open April 18 and play double the
next dav.
Usual Plan Followed.
On April 10, the regular opening
schedule has Leo Durocher's New
York Giants at Brooklyn where
they ruined" the Dodgers last sea.
son; St. Louis at Cincinnati before
the traditional sellout; Pittsburgh
at Chicago and the Phils at Boston
for two.
The schedule calls for the usual
four intersectional trips with the
Western teams coming East for the
first tour, May g. Long before that
the night games will be in full
swing. st. Louis lists its first night
game, April % which is the Satur-
day of the first week of the season
In the final 10 days of the season
ending october 2, the Eastern
teams will be playing among them
selves and the west against the
west. Even then, in the last week
there will be several night games.
