Day dinner that if
the COP tried to go back to the 20's,
It would become the "deadest
pigeon in the country"
The burden of his theme was
that the party was split wide
apart and it had better get to-
Sether, slough off one extreme
element which wants to ''turn
the clock back" and the other
extremists who want to "Out-
promise the Democrats" He de-
manded that the party stand for
"sOcial progress un der a
flourishing system of private en-
terprise where every human
right is expanded" Those op-
posed to "liberal and progress
sive policies" should get out Of
the party.
Here again we run into semantics
what is progressive" what is
'cliberaT'-for that matter, what is
Sylvia? To one an owl, to another
a nightingale. To the pinks,
':liberar' is a reactionary. To the
conservative a liberal" is a red.
Dewey said that the Republican
party Cor the party as he sees it)
believes in unemployment insur-
ance, old age assistance on an in
creased basis, in broader social Sc
curity generally, in slum clearance,
in public development of our water
resources, in farm price supports,
In vigorous protection Of the rights
of labor"
And he seems to recognize that
all of us, Republicans included, will
have to take certain things for
granted. Certain social and politi-
cal changes which we may not like
any more than our grandfathers
liked a lot of "new-fangled' ideas
they met with, like the safety razor,
say.
The federal reserve board, the
income tax, women's suffrage-al
were once considered little less
than the instruments Of the devil
himself by lot of people who never
think twice about them now. What
policy the federal reserve board
follows is debatable by either politi-
cal party, but nobody would be fool
enough to try to eliminate the board
as an institution. Both parties
claim they invented it.
The size of the income tax, and
how it's distributed is also .
matter to be settled by the
party in power, but T can't quite
see anybody trying to eliminate
income taxes entirely. Other
matters like the principles of
government regulation Of inter-
state commerce, of old age and
unemployment insurance and
dozens of other activities seem
to be here for good.
If am Red for saying that, you
can measure me for a suit of long
underwear to match, tuck me into
the one-hoss-shay and send me
home.
AS a matter of fact I am really
pretty much of a moss-back. AL
though I'd trade in my used air
plane for rocket, if anybody has
a surrey with the fringe on top and
I had place to park it, that's what
I'd really prefer.

METALS:

Stronger
For those who use metals, there
was good news. DR.. ]. H. Holloman,
General Electric research labora-
tory scientist, reported that metals
eventually can be made from five
to 10 times stronger.
Metals are made up of tiny
grains. A break always begins at
a high temperature with micro
scopic cracks along the boundaries.
It is prevention of these cracks
that will strengthen the metal.

One can't discuss the Republican

And whenever I say anything good
on the air about Sen. Robert A.
Taft, I get letters like the following
from a man in Lakewood, New

writes, looking down your long
nose at that truck driver and be-

I wonder which is the most dan
gerous, an idiot with truck or an
idiot with a vast radio audience.
"You see, I look down my long
nose at you just as you did the
truck driver and l have the advan-
tage Of having heard few thou

this medium I have explored your

much there. Your speaking Of the

eighth inning, when the White Roses
scored their lone run, and Gene
Crumling was behind the plate.
Ralph Woolford, a left handler
(the losing pitcher) started for York,
but was taken out for a pinchhitter
in the eighth, and Ray Kalkowski,
also a left handler, pitched the last
inning. Paul Nottingham was be-

Although Jack Kelly, the York

three men out in order.
Again in the second inning Bill
Plate, the first baseman, who was
the first man up, got on on an error,
but was thrown out when he tried to

who fielded the ball, made a bad
throw to Major who was covering,
but Major recovered quickly and

"wednesday, August 100

The Senators swept their three
game series with the Owls, taking
the final game on Wednesday night
by score of 40.
Hildebrand went the route for
Harrisburg and gave up four hits
all of them singles-one by Dykes,
two by Heinbaugh and one by Hi
den who went in as a pinchhitter
for Pickell in the ninth. Naragon
was his catcher.
Pickell went the route for the
Owls, and Crumling was behind the
plate.
Pickell gave up seven hits, struck
out five and walked two, but the
trouble was that four of the seven
hits were for extra bases. Hansen,
Malmberg and Lemon all got two
baggers, and Forbes came through
with a home run.
Harrisburg took a one-run lead in
the fifth on Forbes four-bagger,
and the three doubles by Hansen,
Malmberg and Lemon, plus Carey's
single, accounted for the other three
runs in the sixth.
