Meeting
Strangers
By AnqeIo Potri

The president of the Women's
Club was calling on Mrs. Jay, the
newcomer to the neighborhood.
And I hear you have a lovely
little boy" she said. endeavoring
to make the new neighbor feel
welcomed.
"oh. yes. I have little boy.
Carol, come here"
Carol. who was playing in the
next room, looked up but did not
move.
Come. You heard mother call
you. Come in here"
Carol rose reluctantly and
slithered to his mothers side, half
hiding behind her chair. She
reached behind her and dragged
him out. Shake hands with the
lady. What's the matter with you?
Go and shake hands with the lady
like a little gentleman"
T. Carol hung back. His mother
insisted. The visitor, embarrassed,
tried to mend matters by saying
coaxingly, Come child, I won't
hurt you"
At that Carol burst into tears
and loud walls. Go to your room" !"
said his mother angrily. I'm
ashamed of you"
When a child is shy it is unwiSe
to force him to greet strangers.
Let him come into the room and
let him stay there with scant no.
tice until he warns up to the Wis
itors. They will smile at him, may
be speak to him. He will not an
swer but when he feels safe with
them he is likely to go for some
pet belonging and bring it back
to show the friendly guest. Once
he does that, they will get along
famously.
Carrying something in the hand
gives children, and grown people
as well, a feeling of security. The
contact with some firm object re-
assures them and allows them to
think away from themselves to-
ward the other people. Once they
are over the first hard minute,
things ease up.
It is always a risk to ask a child
to come forward when strangers
are present. Any child is likely
to be overcome by shyness. This
expresses itself In various ways in
various children. Some giggle,
some cry, some show of and be-
come loud voiced and excited. 1t
is always better to allow the child
to make his way slowly. with as
little attention from the older peo-
pie as possible. Direct looks. di-
rect attention, direct questions
are likely to make a bad matter
worse. Let the child warm up to
the people, give him chance to
make his own way out Of the
diffculty and things will go much
better.
When older children are afnict-
ed with shyness they are helped
by the simple method of allow
ing them to serve the guests.
Passing a tray allows them silent
contact with the guests. a smile
breaks the barrier, and by and
by they are able to speak. But
be wary Of forcing this by direct
means.

Local Fishermen Return
From Florida Expedition

Four Noble county men, Earl
Clymer, Bill Schott, Andrew
Gerst and Fred Mcdonald return
ed recently from Florida with
stories of fish which astounded
most Isaac Walton followers.
They brought back proof of their
catches though in the form of an
article in the DaytQna Beach
Journal
During their one week deep sea
fishing trip several unusual fish
were landed. Earl Clymer landed
one pound ten ounce grunt. Ac-
cording to the party the fish lives
up to its name and emits loud
grunts when caught.
Fred Mcdonald, an employee
at Hills Store caught the most
unusual fish when he hooked a
West Indian scorpion. The fish
weighed only three pounds four
teen ounces but is of a rare
species which ordinarily fre-
quents the waters of the West
Indies and is seldom found in
Florida waters. Other fish caught
by the group included king
, mackerel, bonito grouper and
blue runner. All fishing was done
off the cruises Buccaneer,

rough before the afternoon
ended. Three straight hits in
the first inning looked mighty
black to pitcher Don Morris, but
he rallied to retire the side on
strikes, after three big-looking
had scored. Caldwell bounced
right back with four runs on four
hits and three errors to take the
lead in their half of the first
Davis led off with a triple and
Ed Mazgay was called out on
strikes. Stellfox and Leo MaZgay
looped singles over the infield,
Taylor reached first on the third
baseman's error, Macenko singled
and Luke Young was safe on an
other error, Barnett popped to
the pitcher to retire the side after
Young had been caught off first.
Two more runs on hit bats
man and two consecutive singles
in the second looked like the ball
game, but Holloway kept pecking
away for a run in the third and
took the lead 7-6 in the fifth on
a double and three singles spaced
around a costly error by Tiger
Davis.
That only seemed to start more
fire in the Caldwell bats as Lob
by led off with a long double to
center, but they forced him at
third (short to third) and went
on to get the tying run on a walk,
force-Out and an error.
Holloway bounded right back
in the sixth to go ahead once
more, scoring twice on two base
hits and two infield outs, in the
sixth. At this point Caldwell real
ly broke loose: Davis tripled, Ed
Mazgay scored him with a fly,
Stellfox doubled L. Mazgay
singled, ChicWak doubled, and
the old ball game was in the bag.
Winning pitcher Don Morris set
them down in the last three inn
ings with no further scoring and
the Merchants got three insur-
ance runs in the eighth on three
singles and an error The only

diamond was Bud Tilton who
spent a very hot afternoon in the

never came. He really lived up

GAINESVILLE LOOSES TWO
BarneSville'S two stunning up
sets the past week by Boston and
WOodsfield again put Caldwell
in the running for the League
Championship. Go get 'em, Mer-
chants.
WE ALL KNEW Stan "P T. MAJ
gay would do it some day, but
none knew just exactly when. 1t
has happened and left us with
nothing but good luck in our
wishes for him. The Merchants
will miss him, of course, BUT
he's back where he belongs.
AS MOST LOYAL fans know,
Stan was under contract to the
Albany club of the Eastern
League. Last weekend the st.
Louis Brown club of the Amer
lean League bought his contract
and optioned him to Glovers-
vile, N. Y. of the Canadian-Am-
erican League for the remainder
of the season. Gloversville at the
latest standing now is in fourth
place in the standings in this
Class G league. Due to injury to
one of their hard hitting out
fielders, the need was made and
efforts on the part of one of
STAINS former roommateS made
this shift possible. So best of
luck to you, fellow, and bash
those fences for the fans here at
home.
AN ATTEMPT to answer one of
the most talked about bits of
conversation in the past weeks
is now in the making. Many a
coke glass has been spun over
this subject. why isn't the band
playing at all of our football
games this fall?"
First of all is the fact that the
band will play on invitation
from any school wishing their
presence. Instead of travelling as
a unit with the team they will
only go to those games at which
they have a written invitation to
attend. Already Mr.. Wood has
the invite from M & M and has
always in the past received one
from most other schools, so why
fret, the band will be there.
We all know that when a team
or organization gets to the point
where all other schools point
them out as one to beat, some
thing has to happen. Take Glous-
ter for instance. Back some Is
years ago they had a powerhouse
of a football team. No other
team wanted to play them, they
were so good. But that has all
come to pass. Where are they
now, yes, in the process of re-
building another poWerhouse.
They have floundered around in
the cellar of the league long
enough. Philo is another ex-
ample of the same kind. We
don't want that to happen here
in Caldwell. Some of you will
say Eyes, but when do we get
some of those league champion
ships?" Well win our share,
don't you worry. An eight team
league only thrives on the dis
tribution of power throughout.
Each team or organization must
thrive to work in unison not one
against the other. Now don't mis-
understand me and think I'm
trying to kill the will to win,
that comes in another part, but
by relaxing the pressure a bit in
| the right places will help a great
lot and that is what the band is
trying to do.
Sure we want strong compet-
ition, that is what made us great
and we like it. Our sights are
aimed still higher by the organ
izing of the Caldwell high school
band alumni association. | will
bring more of the facts and fig
ures to you next week so, watch
for them.

with the annual alumni night.
