Red Box Defeat Yankees in Hot Game in Which Umpire
 Has His Warm Session Too
Bu RALPH RIDDEN

The possibility was Slroilg touds that the nations railroads-and not New York's famed subway system will transport the participants Ill the 1949 World Series.
 New Workers hopes of a subway World Series suffered another rude jolt yesterday when the torrid Bos- ton Red Sox defeated the New York Yankees, 7-6, to snap their first place tie and move game in front of the floundering Tanks in the American League race.
 The dreams of a dime classic were jared Sunday when the St. Louis Cardinals moved a game and half in front of the Brooklyn Dodgers by downing Chicago while Brooklyn succumbed to Philadel- phia.
 Both the Red Sox and the Cards renew their pennant drives on foreign fields today while the Tanks are at home and the Dodgers idle.
 The Red Sox, riding a ten game winning streak, take on the last place Senators in a night game at Washington while the Tanks en- certain the better equipped Phila- deIphia Athletics. The Cards meet the sixth place Pirates in night game at Pittsburgh.
 Joe Dobson (13-1D has been nominated to pitch for the Red Sox against Senator ace Rae Scar borough u2-1D. The Tanks will send Vic Raschi Q9-10) against Dick Fowler Q4-10).
 5 GAMES EACH
 Both the Red Sox and Tanks have five games left to play. The two contenders wind up the sea sen in the Stadium with single games Saturday and Sunday fol- lowing their three game series against Washington and Philadel- phia.
 The Dodgers return to action to- morrow when they open two game set with the fourth place Braves of Boston.
 DISPUTED PLAY
 A disputed squeeze play. that climaxed a four-run eighth inning rally gave the Red Sox their triumph over the Tanks aefore 66,l56 paid onlookers.
 Bobby Doerr bunted Johnny Pesky across with the big run. Doerr dropped the ball down. the first line. Tommy Henrich's throw had Pesky beat but Umpire Bill Grieve called Pesky safe. He said later the Red Sox runner slid under Yankee catcher Ralph Houk.
 HOT, NEAR FIGHT
 The Tanks immediately swarmed around Grieve like bunch of hor- nets, claiming that Houk had blocked off Pesky. Houk, major in the Rangers during the war, was the most enraged of the Tanks.
 Ellis Kinder, who shut out the Tanks in Boston Saturday, blanked the New Workers in the last two rounds but an amazing catch by Al Zarilla saved the game in the ninth. With one down in the home ninth Heinrich whaled a drive to right Zarilla sprinted to his right, leaped while in full stride, caught the drive, tumt3led to the ground but held on to the ball. Kinder then walked Yogi Berra but Tank Bauer flied out to end the game.
 The Red Sox opened the game by scoring three runs in the first in- ming against Tommy Byrne and Fred Sanford.
 Young Mickey McDermott held the lead until the fourth when the Tanks moved ahead with a four run rally McDermott almost re- ceived his walking papers in the second but Zarilla came up with a tremendous catch against the right field stands to rob Johnny Lindell of three-run homer.

A MACHINE HAS NO MIND OF ITS OWN

A MACHINE HAS NO NJ OF ITS OWN
IT SEEMS NECESSARY to discuss once again the
subject OF dangerous driving on the Island. We feel that if
mention OF the problem will help to save one human life it is
well worth while. Not only do these unthinking methods en-
danger the Islands own population, including children,
but tourists and visitors unaccustomed to left hand
drive.
THIS IS NOT A problem just of St. Croix, of course. 1t
is of worldwide proportion land especially important as a
symbol of the American culture)
WE A ADVANCED to the point now that we have
mighty and useful machines of all sorts. In addition we have
begun to worship speed and seem sometimes to be rushing
headlong to-. some goal we really do not know ourselves.
Building OF these machines it seems has not been enough. An
automobile hasn't a brain; we are supposed to supply it. If we
becloud this brain with reckessness, alcohol, or plain thought
lessnesS, our machine has as much direction as a leaf in the
wind.
LOOK AROUND THE Island any day will provide
US with many examples of traffic violations, including poor
brakes. Most of our roads and streets are narrow. Neverthe-
less it is very commo to see motorists doing as high as so
miles an hour Ironically enough, the last one observed passed
the very spot where a small boy was killed Just a year or so
ago.
WE ARE BLESSED by a rolling countryside. A man in
his car, obeyng the law, carefully sounding his horn as he
approaches the narrow top of a hill never knows when a reck-
less driver will over the top invariably on the
wrong side, at high speed. We again repeat that the rules
governing traffic here should be the same as those on the
American mainland. A tourist or visitor who is forced to walk
in the street or road never knows if a truck will come to his
left or right hand. With these congested conditions. some dri-
-vers seem also able to talk to passers-by and to cast their eyes
in several directions whilst going forward at a lively clip. All
of these violations of good sense could be alleviated by care;
and the sort of care we mean is well illustrated by a story
, 1949-08-17

from the mainland. Recently
a truck-driver received an
award for a spotless record on
the road for, as we recall, IS
years. When asked how he
had done it, he replied that he
had not driven "defensively",
Explaining the term, I drive
as if every person coming to-
wards me is a raving and dang
erous maniac-at-wheel. By
this method not only was he
protected but also innocent
pedestrians, passengers and
other cars in the vicinity.
A littel care may save a life.

Friends Service to Seek Funds
For Relief in Fighting Areas

The scene Is Northern China
where the Communist forces are
sweeping through Nationalist terri
tory.
It Is a land where rivalries are
intense, suspicious easily aroused.
A haggard- looking figure at the
head OF small line of coolies pre-
SCENTS himself to guard at an out
post. Maybe the guard Is with the
Communist army; perhaps he Is of
the Nationalist forces. It doesn't
matter.
Nor does it matter whether the
one accosting the guard is Chinese,
or a Briton or an American. He
presents his credentials. He and his
bearers are waved forward.
The haggard, kindly man who
would pass into No Mans Land is
worker for the American Friends
Service Committee.
Today in China, Palestine and
India, workers for the AFSC are
being passed through battle lines
to administer relief as they have
been since the first group of Friends
went to France in 1917.
In world torn with intense ma
tionalistic feuds, the nonsectarian
group Is continuing its relief work,
first acclaimed after World War I.
In China, say returning travellers,
1t is the only group openly working
in q contested area. Some 60 per-
sons, representing five nationalities,
are administering medical relief to
both sides.
In India, committee members
have needed the pleas of both
Indian and Pakistan governments

quell the iaring emotions of the
rival Moslems and Hindus.

can work his will on without
harm to himself or to them. Let
him have newspapers to tear and
a big box or basket, something
with a capacious mouth, to put
the scraps in. Many of them will
go on the f1oor just the same, but
he will get the idea in time.
Give him a pan and a wooden
spoon, both having smooth edges,
and let him thump away. Give
him a box with a few odds and
ends in it that may be thumped,
tested in his mouth, tossed about
the room. Let him, as he begins
to understand what is expected of
him, have a low shelf or a drawer
in which he keeps his belongings
and change these frequently so as
to widen his range of experiences.
Once in a while carry him
about the house so he can see the
things that are usually higher
than his range of vision. Let him
touch the things that allow hand
ling but say mo, don't touch"
to those he may not take in his
hands. These excursions please
him greatly and they add to his
knowledge of his world. They
give him an elation of spirit be-
cause he is gratif1ed with the at
tention, delighted with his ex-
perience, he feels himself ex-
panded.

Destructive
Children
By Angelo Potri

Young children just beginning
to find their way about the world
are likely to be destructive. They
pull things off the tables. tear
books and papers. spill things
and break things. This can be
very hard on the furnishings and
most trying to a mothers endur-
ance.
This destructiveness does not
imply deliberate meanness on the
child's part. He is following the
dictates of Nature. He must gain
strength and he must learn about
the world through his senses. The
way he gains strength is to pit
what he has of it against that of
something that comes his way. He
puts all his might into tearing a
page out Of a book, humping a
pan on the floor, pulling the
weighted table cloth toward him.
These things offer resistance to
his muscles and he, in overcom-
ing the resistance, grows power
in his muscles. In feeling, see
ing, doing with, the objects of his
attention he stores knowledge of
them in his memory. He en-
riches his intelligence with every
contact he makes.
We cannot afford to let him
educate himself at the expense of
the household furnishings, so we
remove the things he should not
destroy and give him things he

IDEAS FOR SUMMER: A

items for summer: Have you

is cool. Make it like any other
fruit ice, but substitute water
melon pulp and juice. You'll
reap compliments on it.
Another cool idea along this

really good with cold coast beef,
