tune, Chicago" might indicate
that our town is more than some

friend, Joe s. Lewis, grand friend

theme for too many years for me
to remember. Each Christmas ne

Associated Press Sportswriterl Those San Diego Padres, still somewhat alive in the Pacific Coast League pennant drive, have hearty disrespect for the Oakland Acorns, inevitable winner of the 1850 cham pionship.
 In fact the Padres prolonged the agony last night by drubbing the Oaks soundly, 13 to 5. It was more of a stay of execution than anything else, for although the setback cut Oakland's lead to seven games, the Acorns now need only five victories to sew up the title and four to tie, no matter what San Diego does.
 The Padres collected IS blows in the game, including Jack Graham's 29th homer of the campaign.

Others suggested that the
Government, States and counties

A stand contrary to both views
was taken by Edward L. Foster,

"of any share-the-cost program
The Government has plenty of
money to spend all over the world,
and in time of disaster or emer-

Also concerned about how and
where to get money was Arling-
