The New York Yankees won a
double header yesterday and
picked up a game and half on
the Boston Red Sox, but faced the
future today with nothing but
gloom.
Unless a miracle happens, the
American League leaders will be
forced to play the next three weeks
without the services of Tommy
Heinrich, their star outfielder. He
may do no more playing this year
"Old Reliable" as Tommy is
known, injured his back severely
in the first game while attempting
to catch a line drive off the bat OF
Chicago's Charley Kress. x-rays
taken at Mercy Hospital revealed
fractures of the second and third
ribs in the lower part OF the back
His loss. even for short time
is a blow to the already injury
riddled Yankees, who have suffered
no fewer than so injuries this
season. Heinrich was second only
to Joe Di Maggie in value to the
club. An inspirational player. he
was batting 1896 and had driven
in 76 runs in 1o2 games.
Mize Also Sidelined.
Henrich's absence will be more
pronounced since Johnny Mize,
first baseman acquired from the
New York Giants recently, also
was sidelined by an injury. Mize
hurt his right shoulder sliding into
first in the second game. 1t was
undetermined how long he would
be out. With both Mize and Hen
rich, who also doubled as a first
oaseman, out. Third Baseman
Billy johnson had to be switched
to the bag.
A six-run ninth-inning rally
gave the Yankees the first game
over the White Sox, 81. The
Yanks also won the nightcap, Us.
with darkness halting proceedings
after eight innings. The double
triumph enabled the Yankees to
increase their first place margin
to three games over the Red Sox,
who dropped an thinning game
to the Indians in Cleveland. 81.
The second game of that sched-
uled double-header was called
off in the fourth inning because
of darkness. The Indians were
in front, 2-1.
In the National, the front-run-
ming st. Louis Cardinals increased
their lead over Brooklyn to 212
games by sweeping a double
header from the Boston Braves
81 and II. The Dodgers trounceo

Ray Weston of Spokane. Wash.

shortly after 9 am, although the
rain had not stopped entirely.

Ben, also was showed to the side
lines early. He lost to William

Both Far Over Par.
Their match over the $500
swamp-like yards was an example
of the conditions under which
play was being held. Not one of
the first II holes was halved.
Hogan's medal was 80, Cranberry Is
was 80. Par is 35-36-7l.
Weston, one of the better anna
teurs in the far west. said he was
unable to putt on any of the first
| five holes because of the standing
water On the first green he couldn I
see, the hole. He holed out by
chipping toward the flag.
AS the Amateur opened today
Frank Stranahan. golf's golden
boy, said he thought this may be
his year.

ment," the millionaire son from
Toledo. Ohio, commented. The
27-year-old shotmaker begins his
bid for title that has managed
persistently to escape him while

trophies available to an amateur
Stranahan met William G. Hol-
loway of Westbury, N. Y.
Riegel Next in Line.
If he gets past the first two
rounds and form in the other
bracket also prevails, Stranahan
will meet Robert (Skee) Riegel of
Tulsa. Okla, the 1947 champion,
in the third round.
This match, Stranahan figures
will be the decisive one in his
title bid. Riegel is at the peak OF
his game and is rated with Ted
Bishop. 1916 titlist, as co-favorite
for Willie Turnesa's crown. Tur-
mesa drew an opening bye.

In other countries and SO, the other day,
the General Assembly of the United Ma
tions adopted resolution that the action

ton of the United Nations charter"
Since resolutions of the General AS
sembly are not binding upon the mem

We fail to see where anything is gained
by debating such issues and passing reso-

The Soviet Union seems to be on
rather firm ground when it points out that
the United Nations is forbidden to inter-
fere in the domestic affairs of any country.
Certainly, the decision to grant or with
hold an exit visa to a citizen is within the
jurisdiction of the state.
1t is about time for the people of the
world, including the official delegates to
the United Nations, to understand that
the domestic affairs of one country are
not the proper concern of other countries.

PHoNY ELECTIONS

The Citizen has remarked often,
though it was not the first to say it. that
the ballot is the bedrock of democracy.
But how would Key Westers feel about
that bedrock" if it was composed sole
ly single ticket, as was the case on Sun
day in Hungary, Bulgaria and eastern Ger
many. where communists held elections?
OF one thing we may be sure. the peo-
Pile Of Russia and their satellite nations
have no sense of humor. so far as their
rulers are concerned. Reason for that con-
elusion is that the leaders, on Monday, de-
elared that the communists scored out
standing victories" at the polls.
What other type of 'Victory" could
the communists have gained" when there
were not any opposing candidates? Rus
sian psychology is so contracted, the Krem-
lin and its caharts did not realize that in
announcing their "great victories" to the
world, that the world, outside the Russian
sphere Of influence, either shrugged or
ehuckled or raised an inquiring brow about
the results of the elections.
But why 90 to the expense and the
waste OF time OF holding an election when
the slate of candidates put forth by the
Kremlin Is the only one that voters can
support? 1t is similar to holding horse
race and letting only one horse run and
then cheer him when he crosses the finish
ing line. Had he walked, he would have
won. and had each of the communist can
didates voted for himself without other
support, he would have been elected.
Russia and her satellites bat around
the word democracy" unaware they are
foOling nobody except themselves. Ameri-
cans view the elections as they do propa-
ganda that comes out of Russia, when the
Kremln dishes up phony names in claim
ing every invention of any consequence
that has been made since man has inhabit-,
ed the earth.
Their phony elections are so rank
they are not even amusing.

WE HAVE NO NATIONAL PARTY

The general idea that the United
States has two parties, operating on ma
tional level; is far-fetched, but not many
Americans stop to analyze the situation.
II is obvious that the major political
parties are not national" but represent
nothing more than the aggregation of
number of state parties, which operate,
inside their states, as they please.
This was illustrated by the refusal of
four Southern States to pledge their
electors to President Truman. 1t is dem
onstrated by the wide differences that
exist between the various state delega-
tons of the same national party issues in
Congress.
There are wide differences between
what the Democratic Party stands for in
South Carolina, in New York and in Mis-
souri,. Likewise, there is not singleness
of purpose in the policies of the Republi-
can Party in California, in Vermont or in
Tennessee.

Chapter 2


THEY had dinner by candle
light, and the magic spell of
the Pickering brilliance on the
creamy roses and polished cherry,
together with the sparkle of gay,
light-hearted conversation no less
brilliant. deepened Martina's sat
isfaction and made her eyelids,
now that her fears were allayed,
droop with contented WEAKNESS.
Perhaps after all this might be
happy year-and just the sort OF
experience of which her soul had
deep need-the answer to the UNI
explainable restlessness that had
been driving her for months.
After dinner Gwen went to the
kitchen to talk a moment with
Mrs. Allerton and Martin de-
scended to have a look at the
furnace. Martina, wandering back
to the living room, noted her little
bag still sitting by the doorway.
"I'll Just take it up and have Q
look at my room. Mother said
something about new spread
and draperies," she thought. She
started running up the steps, then
slowed her pace TO accommodate
q certain breathlessnesS that now
seemed to accompany the slight
est exertion. She reached the
upper hallway and stopped frozen
in her tracks.
The entire area at the top OF
the steps and far down the hall
way was cluttered with packing
boxes, trunks, bags and photo
graphic equipment. The truth
flashed in an instant. In spite OF
their efforts at reinsurance, Gwen
and Martin were about to take off
ON another expedition! And she
was running their plans, just as
she had feared!
The delightful feeling of Sc
curity vanished. She was going to
be left alone again-and this time
when she really needed help and
encouragement. She turned slow
ly and went back down the stairs,
feeling as if the last prop had
been removed from under her.
They were waiting for her in
the living-room, their faces guilty
and unhappy, like two children
caught in a prank they thought
they had covered up. Though how
on earth they had expected her
not to see the packing cases, Mar
tina could not imagine. Did Mar
tin have some wild idea of put

Martin said, speaking quickly,
*Wen just call the whole thing
