week STARTS,
BIG Sc R les
LEAGUE
(By the Associated Press)

Big series week begins in the
Pacific Coast League tonight, With
first place Hollywood and second
place Oakland colliding in their
final series of the season.
This is unfortunate, perhaps, be-
cause another scrap between these
two toward the end of the campaign
might prove interesting.
The Stars hold two game bulge
on the Acorns, with the rest of
the pack far to the rear-10 games,
to be precise. But the Seattle
Rainiers might well steal the show
in their battle with San Diego for
the third place spot.
The Rainiers have been raging
like a four alarm fire and today
are only half a game behind the
Padres. San Diego has been looking
rather soggy lately while Seattle
has captured its last 10 series.
Hollywood will be hampered in
two ways in its fray with the Oaks.
Two pitchers. two infielders and
the first string catcher are hors de
combat. And the engagement VIII
be staged at Oaklands home park,
Emeryville.
The clubs have played three series
already. Oakland won all of them,
four games to three.
Other openers tonight find the
second division squads squaring off.
San Francisco plays at Los An
geles; Portland entertains Sacra-
mento.
Oakland still leads the circuit in
five statistical departments: team
batting (.289); most runs (624) /;
most hits (1025) home runs (84).;
and runs batted in $500.
cortland and Hollywood are tied
for the lead in team fielding with a
975 average. San Diego. with l43
errors, is last in this department.

CROP PROGRAM WILL CONTINUE

at a national dedication of 1853

originally launched in August,
1947, will remain under the spon-
sorship of Catholic Rural Life,

inception, CROP has handled ap-
proximately 175,000,000 pounds Of
farm commodities. These have
been distributed by CROPS spon-

countries.
Activity in 1850 will be con-
contrated principally in Americas S

Temperature is the most impor-
tant limiting factor in all outdoor
horticultural activities. Soil can be
improved, water can be supplied
artifically. But planters are at the
mercy of the temperature.
A key-day in the spring, which
governs all operations, is the date
when in your locality it becomes
relatively safe to set out tender
plants. In other words, the frost
proof date. This does not, mark the
beginning of gardening, because
seeds of hardy vegetables can be
sown as soon as the ground has
thawed out and become dry enough
to work. This is usually 30 days
before the frost-proof date.
The term frost-proof, moreover,
is hardly correct. The weather is
too uncertain for that. There is al
ways the chance that In an excep-
tional year, frost win occur long
after the average ttime and many
tender things Willtbe nipped. But
some risk must always be accepted
in gardening.
On the basis of long experience,
the weather bureau has prepared a
map which divides the country into

Elevator Erected
At Mechanicsburo

Excavation started recently at
MeChanicsburg for the new grain
elevator of The Ohio Grain Com
pany.
The new plant will be erected
on the Dehydrator property, and
operated in connection with the
present Ohio Grain Elevator.
The new elevator viii probably
be the most modern equipped and
largest in that section of the
state, and should give relief to
the many farmers handicapped by
inadequate storage and handling
facilities.
The new elevator will consist Of
IL large concrete grain tanks,
with 28 bins, a total capacity OF
a little more than 100000 bushels.
The bins will be 10 feet high, and
the main elevator building will
reach TIA feet. A $50 bushel per
hour dryer is being installed.

CROP operated in 35 states in
1949 and in 26 in 1948. Contribut-
ions to CROP reached an all-time
high in 1948, when 1882 rail
road carloads of farm commodit-
les were received .

centrating our efforts in a small

potentials, we shall endeavor to
bring the true story of continued
need to every farmer.
CROPS sponsors decided TO
continue their efforts in 1850 be-
cause of such appeals as this one
recently received from NJ r. Zig

Shows Dates Which the
Damage From Frost Are Only One to Ten

zones, and established for each zone
a date on which the chances are 10
to l against killing frost occur
ring in the spring. The map accom-
panies this discussion. look up your
location and talk to your gardening
neighbors about their practice, and
you will find it easy to decide on the
date to accept as safe from frost in
your garden.
Of course some years you may
win with long-shot and get crop
from an early planting of tender
crop because of an exceptionally
warm spring. If you want to figure
the odds against this kind of chance
taking, you may estimate that the
risk of losing tender plants is ex-
actly doubled, when they are set out
two weeks before the frost-proof
date
There is nothing to be gained,
moreover, by taking this risk with
plants which have been started in
doors, since they may be seriously
injured by a hard frost which does
not kill them, and always do best
when they continue growing without
| check.

Claims Society Shares Blame
For Crimes OF Psychopdths

When Robert Murl Daniels
died in Ohio's electric chair last
year, officials and citizens of that
state were indirectly responsible
for his criminal life and tragic
end.
That is the conclusion reached by
by John Barlow Martin, famous
crime writer, who witnessed Dan
iel's execution and tells his shame
full story in the March issue of
Cosmopolitan magazine.
Martin points to the fact that
Daniels Substained head injuries
in two childhood accidents and
that, when he was arrested for
car theft, State psychologists
paid no heed TO the warnings
OF the youths doctor that his
mind was damaged.
Juvenile delinquency officials
recommended that Daniels be
locked up, not treated But the
courts put him on probation be
cause the State had no place to
put him where he would receive
treatment as we'll as discipline. :"
Later, when Daniels was sent 10
the state reformatory for a hold
up, he was thrown in with inmates
the majority of whom were homo
seXuals, psychopaths, mental de-
fectives, or borderline insane.
Daniels own 10. was rated aver
age. Martin reports that, although
The reformatory had facilities for
900 inmates, as many as 1400 have
been crammed in. The Ohio legis-
lature," he says, refuses to ap-
propriate funds to correce these
conditions.
At the reformatory's honor
farm, Daniels became friendly
with another inmate who was
rated as a moron. 1t was this
youth. John West who later ac-
companied Daniels and was killed
i'll lIit Gi1IllG 0piCI IliS "lllSAi
they murdered five people.
West a moron, and Daniels,
an unstable psychopath, says
Martin, certainly should not
have been brought together by the
State of Ohio. Yet they were, since
Ohio has no prisoner classification
system. Such a system would be
useless anyway he adds, since
there aren't enough institutions;
and for this we can blame that
old whipping boy. the stingy, in
different public
Martin also criticizcs State
officials for hiring an ex-conVict
as a guard. Daniels testified that
this guard had beaten him and
that a determination TO get the
guard after his release led to the
murdered of three innocent people.
The world is full of psyche
paths, of Danielses,' the writer
observes. Nobody knows how
many there are in this country.
That they are important is plain.
not only because they commit
crimes, but also because they vote.
drive cars, and perform innum-
cradle other actions that affect
us all
Perhaps" the article concludes,
there is something wrong with
society that, confronted with a
young Daniels. can think of no
way to help him, and later, con
frontcd with his crimes, can do
nothing at all but kill him
