The Northwest enterprise. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1931-1952, 1950-07-06

There was a time when home
run was a rare thing in the major
league and bunt was just rou-
tine play for the day. With the
present splurge of home run
hitters in the majors. the sacri-
flee hit is becoming as rare as a
dodo. The theory seems to be, II
YOU can't hit the ball out of the
park just strike out and go back
to your seat and sit down. Because
of so many home runs lately there
has been some constructive spec
ulation as to whether the "old
apple" unlike the old gray mare,
is the same as it used to be. Luke
Easter, big first baseman of the
Cleveland Indians slammed the ball
over the centerfield scoreboard
some 40 feet from home plate.
Granted Easter is no midget, but
that would be some clout even for
Paul Bunyan. Maybe somebody
ought to really have look at
that ball.
Robinson VS.. Fusari
It seems that Sugar" Ray Rob
inson cannot get a crack at the
middlewe. ght crown because Lo-
motta would rather fight Mitri;
and he can't get shot at the
lightweight crown because joey
Maxim says Rays arms are too
long and $500 isn't enough money.
so Ray will have to defend his
crown against Charlie Fsari,
clever welterweight from Irving
ton New Jersey. While Fusari is
a fairly good welterweight, he is
not in the class with Robinson.
Gone are the days when champions
fight championship material and
dogs are content to be dogs.
Anybody can get a championship
fight nowadays Except Robinson
with Lamotta) and it seems that
anybody does. About all Fusari can
win in this fight is the prestige
of having said he was in cham
pionship fight. Ray is so much
superior it could hardly be called
a contest.

F. !. Johnson

/ ularity of "Joltin" Joe Dimaggio,
the pride of the N. Y. Yankees?
Now that the All Star game is APP
preaching the Yankee clipper is
being completely overshadowed by
Larry Dolby of Cleveland Indians
Has Dimaggio slipped? Frankly
Speaking ] do not believe Joe has
slipped. He is just as good a ball
player today as he ever was. He
just never was as good as he was
touted to be. While I respect and
admire Joe Dimaggio as sports
man and a gentleman, it is my
honest opinion that he never has
been the great ball player that
the newspapers have made him
appear. He has been fortunate
in having good publicity through
out his career and when he ac-
complished some ordinary feat, it
has been overplayed and blown
up to be some thing extra ordinary
just because Joe Dimaggio did it.
Had Joe Bloc done it, it would have
been forgotten the next day. No,
Joe Dimaggio is not slipping. He
still is a good ball player, but he is
no better and no worse than just
another Joe" playing his heart
out in the game all Americans
love.
Here and There
1t has been said that the best
of a real batting champion is not
whether he actually wins the bat
ting crown, but whether he can
repeat. Nobody has won two con-
secutive batting crowns in the
majors in the past fifty years. At
their present hitting rates, it
seems that Jackie Robinson and
Artie Wilson, of Brooklyn and
Oakland respectively, might break
the fifty year tradition this year.
Al Rosen is the surprise home run
hitter of the year being second
only to Ted Williams in the Amer
lean League. Harry Simpson made
one of the greatest catches ever
made in Sticks Stadium when he !
pulled Al Lyons line drive off the
centerfield wall after having trav-
eled some ninety feet.

How to read the future

Bill Groundwater can read his own future
quite easily-by simply reviewing his past.
During his % years with General Mills, he's
seen how jobs keep getting better...
He's seen paychecks grow. (Today the
average company employee earns 2H
times as much as 20 years ago.
He's seen the work-day shorten.
He's seen security increase. To-day
there's retirement program, and hos
pital and medical protection, for all
regular employees.)
He's seen new jobs develop. Number
of employees has trebled-from 3, $50
toover 2,OO0)
What's behind this progress? Teamwork

Spelling Held Overruted

The opinion that the impor-
tance Of spelling is overrated by
the parents Of today's school chill
dren was expressed yesterday by
an official of the Office Of Educa-
ton before the District Federation
of Women's Clubs.
The discussion came in a ques-
ton and answer period following
a talk by DR.. Wilhelmina Hill,
specialist in social sciences.
Asked why schools today aren't
teaching better spelling. DR.. Hill
said she thinks teachers are doing
a better job than they did 20 or
Is years ago.
The content Of an idea, and the
effective expression Of ideas
through sentences and paragraphs,
are of more Importance than the
spelling of words correctly in her
opinion, however, she said.
DR.. Hill added that a spelling
consciousness could be developed
by pointing out to students the
bad effect on the reader created
by miS-Spelled words.

Dorothy
Dix

DEAR MISS DIX: Do you be-
heve that two people who are
diametrical opposites can ever get
along in peace and harmony? The
girl I am engaged to and have
not a single taste. thought nor
habit in common, yet we love each
other. What do you think of the
future of such a marriage?
ARTHUR.
Answer: I think it is mighty
likely to be stormy voyage that
will end in the divorce court.
Maybe the physical attraction
that you have for each other will
be strong enough to enable you
to survive the cyclones of temper
and temperament that you will
encounter almost continually, but
I doubt it.
It is one of Natures ironic jestS
to draw opposites together, be-
cause Nature is concerned only
with the good of the species and
not the happiness of the indi-
vidual, but the very differences
that attracted men and women
to each other before marriage
rend them apart after marriage.
If you will think of the dis
gruntled husbands and wives you
know, you will find that at the
bottom of all of the trouble is
uncongeniality. There is nothing
wrong with either the husband or
the wife. They are just different
from each other. Neither one has
committed any crime against the
other. He or she has just done
something that the other doesn't
like to do.
There are millions of homes in
which there is a daily spat over
the coffee, the children, the neigh
bors, the dog, the cat, over every
thing from politics to pie, and for
no earthly reason except that the
husband thinks one way and the
wife thinks another.
And, conversely, the happy
homes, the successful marriages
are those in which the husband
and wife like the same things,
enjoy the same people, have the
same point of view, ride the same
hobbies. This is but natural, for
the people we enjoy most are
those who agree with us, not those
who argue every point with us.
Congeniality is the one and only
indispensable thing in marriage.
Having that, you have everything.
Without it, you have nothing. For
her sake and for your own sake,
don't marry a girl who is an
tasonistic to you.

Wonen's Clubs
Art for World friendship Exhibit
Portroys Child Play in Many Lands

from about 20 countries including
the United States. And, in gen.
eral, the subject matter is related
to what is typical in their every
day life.
With one or two exceptions, all
of the drawings on exhibit yes
terday have been sent within the
past year to the founder Of the
project. Mrs. Frederick w. Muller,
jr.. of Media. Pa. Those repre-
senting the Netherlands were Sc
lected from a collection of 800
which arrived only yesterday
morning by air mail. And draw
ings from Australia. Belgium,
China and Greece are expected
any day.
Mrs. Muller, who attended yes
terday's preview, conceived the
idea of an exchange Of children's
art to promote world peace about
four years ago. Since that time,
with the aid of a dozen or so
women from her county in Penn
sylvania, she has assembled be-
tween 5000 and 5000 drawings
from school children in many
parts of the world. Two annual
exhibitions have been held in
Philadelphia with. another sched-
uled for January. and smaller
shows have been held in Bryn
Mawr and Cheltenham. Pa.
The exhibit here. which will
continue through Saturday, is
the first held in Washington.
The principal aim of the project,
however. is an exchange of art be-
tween schools of different coun-
tries. So Mrs. Muller and her
aides have sent foreign pictures
to American schools, American
drawings to foreign schools and.
occasionally, an international
collection" to all the participating
schools.
Contacts with the schools have
been made in q variety Of ways.
Committee members have written
to friends in other countries, or
they have written to friends of
friends. Some names were OBJ
tained through CARE packages.
The large collection from the
Netherlands which arrived yes
terday resulted from an article
which appeared in an Amsterdam
newspaper. It was written by
newspaper woman who chanced
to see Mrs. Muller's letter, giving
the rules and purposes of the ex-
change.
The first year 60 schools par
ticipated. Now Mrs. Muller has
lost count: 1--WE have 95 in Italy.
two In India, five in Japan. That's
the way it goes" she said.
Several drawings from India IN
the current exhibit depict we'd
ding scenes. THAT seems to be
a favorite topic" Mrs. Muller
said. And look at these draw
ings Of flowers from Switzerland.
That's typical too"
Christmas was the theme of
some of the drawings on display
yesterday. And holiday customs
in various countries will be the
theme of the January exhibit in
Philadelphia, Mrs. Muller said.
