Fairchild's Have
Huge Order Backlog
Untitled Orders Amount To
Ninety Million Dollars Presi-
dent Tells Stockholders.

In a letter to the stockholders of
the Fairchild Engine and Airplane
Corporation, Richard S. Boutelle,
president, announced a backlog of
over ninety million dollars in un-
filled orders. This is the presidents
first report to the stockholders since
the proxy contest last summer,
which resulted in a complete reor-
ganization of the company manage
ment.
In his letter Mr.. Boutelle also re-
ported that the Corporations divi-
dend payment, which amounted to
an aggregate of 100000, was from
1949 earnings.
Referring to the NEPA contract,
for which Fairchild is the prime con-
tractor to the United States Air
Force, a project in which ten other
aircraft companies are making con-
tributing studies, MIR. Boutelle said:
Your corporation considers it's no
loss, no-profit management of this
project, an integral part of the
atomic research program, to be an
important contribution to national
defense"
Personnel changes since the man
agement's reorganization in July
were described by the president as
steps to unity the corporation on
matters of policy and planning,
while at the same time allowing
each division to carry out its own
special assignment.

County Tax Rate To
Remain At $1.5O

At a special meeting of the Board
of County Commissioners, held on
Monday, the tax rate for 1850 was
tentatively set at $3.50, the same
as this Years. Under the law, the
rate cannot be officially announced
until the first week in January.
The Commissioners also an
nounced that the taxable basis for
1850 will be $128,155, $4,000, near
ly ten million dollars more than this
years basis.
The overall budget for 1850 was
set at 1892, 1888. 40, which is nearly
one hundred and forty thousand
dollars more than this years budget.
Most of the increase will be used
for the public schools, as the Board
of Education's budget has been in
creased from $1,015,00000 to ST.
100000, the increase being neces-
sary to provide for: increased salaries
for teachers; the increased cost of
school transportation facilities; and
to offset the decrease in the amount
the Board of Education will receive
from the State School Equalization
Fund, due to the increase in the
county's taxable basis.

erstown for twenty years, stepped
into the picture in an effort to save
baseball for Hagerstown
and Washington County, and ex-
actly one week later, at a press con-
ference held in the office of Rufus
K. Edwards, general manager of the
Raney Coliseum bowling enterprise,
at Raney's Coliseum at 1000 o'clock
on Monday night, Mr. Edwards an
nounced, on behalf of Mr.. Raney,
that Gene had that afternoon pur-
chased the Owls franchise from
Oren E. Sterling, the former owner,
thus assuring Hagerstown a con-
tinued berth in the Interstate
League.
1t was also announced at the meet
ing that Mr.. Raney, in addition to
purchasing the club outright, had
named Fred Dutch" Dorman as his
manager and that he had signed a
working agreement with the Boston
Braves.
During Mondays meeting the an
nouncement was also made that the
new Hagerstown ball club will do
its spring training at Myrtle Beach,
S. c., next year, along with the other
clubs that the Boston farm system
either owns or has working agree
ments with.
For many weeks since the close
of the 1949 season it looked as if
there was little or no chance of or
The globe-independent. (Hagerstown, Md.) 1943-19??, 1949-12-08

ganized baseball here next year, but
the will and determination of one
man who believed that Hagers-
town was a good sports town and
who was civic minded enough to use
his own money to prove his conten-
ton, put an end to those fears, and
now all that remains is for we fans
throughout the country to show
Gene Raney that we not only APP
preciate what he has done but that
we are going to prove our apprecia-
ton by giving him, his manager and
his team, 100 per cent support.
In an interview with Mr.. Raney,
he told me that he was going to do
everything within his power to give
Hagerstown and Washington County
a baseball team that they could be
proud of He emphasized that he
did not expect to set the world on
fire right away, but he was going to
put a ball club on the field under
the management of Dutch" Dor
man that would not only be a hust-
ling ball club, but a club that, on
and off the field, would keep itself
in strict training
Mr.. Raney, although he has only
owned the ball club twenty-four
hours as this is written, has already
proven to we fans that he is going
to keep his word, for he has already
claimed three players in the draft,
paying $1,000 for each of them. The
three are:
Joseph G. Tedesco, an infelder
from the Schenectady club of the
Glass G Standardization League;
Ray Posipanka, a third baseman,
and Don Wiederect, a pitcher, both
from the Amsterdam, N. Y. club,
also of the Canadian American
League.
In announcing that he had signed
Dutch" Dorman as the manager of
/ the club, Mr.. Raney again gave evil
dence of his determination to 90
all out in his effort to please we
fans. Dutch as we all know, was
without question the most success
full manager that the former Hag-
erstown Owls ever had, and in my
talks with several players, when I
asked them the question who was
the best manager you have ever
worked under?" they all, without
hesitation, came back with Clutch
Dorman."
So, fans, there you have it. Gene
Raney has given organized baseball
IN Hagerstown and Washington
County new lease on life. Let's
all renew that lease for him year
after year by getting behind him
100 per cent, so that not only next
season, but every season, the turn
stiles at the stadium will continue
to click off merry tune.
