BEHIND
HOME PLATE
BY DOUG STEWART

We all know how enthusiastic the
people of Hagerstown and Wash
ington County are over the Hagers-
town Braves, but I've often wonder
ed how the ball players felt about
the new set-up.
The answer TO that question came
very definitely last week when Rufus
Edwards and Dutch Dorman an
nounced that practically every play
er TO whom a Hagerstown contract
had been sent has accepted his con-
tract, and many of them, in return
ing their signed contracts, stated
quite plainly that they were tickled
Go death to play under Dutch
Dorman.
Considering the fact that most of
the minor league clubs are having
quite a time in getting their players
and prospects signed up, 1t is quite
evident, to me at least, that Dorman
is a ball players manager and that
the youngsters under contract TO the
Hagerstown Braves have been given
a square deal by Gene Raney, the
owner.
AS / have pointed out before, the
signing of a ball player doesn't mean
that he will be with the team when
the season opens, but it does mean
that Dutch" will have some 30 or
80 boys to work with during the
spring training season at Myrtle
Beach, S. C. And out of that group
he should come up with ball club
that will challenge any other team
in the league.
| don't know right now what sort
of team we're going to have, but
do know that Gene Raney has spared
no expense TO get the best possible
players available, and that he won't
hesitate TO go after anyone that
Dutch feels will improve the team,
And as for Dorman, one thing you
can bet your boots on, is that he'll
field a hustling ball club, and if the
players have got any baseball in
them, he'll really bring il out.

Congratulations to the Washington
County Baseball League for appoint
ing chief umpire for the 1850 sea-
son. This is a move in the right di-
rection and will certainly take a load
off the shoulders of President Macy
and his officers.
| was also glad to hear that the
league has arranged with Rufus Ed
wards to play II of their games at
the Municipal Stadium during the
season.
II is also good news to hear that
the Hagerstown High School base
ball team will also play their games
at the stadium, Coach Senior ar
ranging their schedule so that all
their home games can be played
while the Braves are on the road.
This is another proof that Gene
Raney is cooperating 100 per cent
with the citizens of the community
in making the stadium available to
these various clubs while the Braves
are on the road.

The compliments you get on your
glowing complexion when you get
back home are one of the pleas
antest factors of any midwinter
vacation. It's a pleasure, however,
that stay-at-homes don't have to
forego! Every one can attain that
"been-away," much-envied look.
Ever notice how the youngsters
retain their glowing color through
the winter? There's nothing like
exercise out of doors to tone up
both the texture and color of your
complexion. And nothing will pro-
claim your other facial charms
like fresh color. Just ask any
Powers Girl and she'll tell you
that's why she walks whenever she
gets the chance.
I'm not recommending that it's
desirable for you to maintain the
deep bronze stain of summer on
your face all year around. Far
from it! What I am urging you
to do is to preserve some SEM
blance of a sparkling color tone.
If you live in a sunny climate,
cold or warm, you have very little
excuse for letting yourself take on
a positive pallor. Ten minutes
every sunny day in your back yard
will keep your face from becoming
as winter-white as a midseason
millinery collection.
Just be sure that while you're
tending your color. you nurse the
texture of your skin. Always oil
your face when you deliberately
expose it. Use your foundation
religiously in a shade that matches
your new-found color at other
times. Clear skin and the correct

foundation are an unbeatable
beauty combination. Never neglect
your night care preparations
either. The winter sun may be
weak, but SOS your skin!
That's no solution for the city
dWeller and desk-chained worker,
however. I know because I'm one
of them. But we. too, can get our
share of the suns bounty. The
sun lamp was practically invented
for us. If you don't own one, try
to locate one in your locality.
You'll find their rays for rent at
a nominal fee in gyms, swimming
pools, clubs and even hairdressers.
Carefully follow the exact in
struction for the lamps use! Pro-
tect your eyes with goggles or
pads; protect your skin with oil.
A sun lamp is no toy, but a tool
to be used expertly. Above vanity,
many medical men believe it's rays
help ward off some winter ills that
rob you of your health and good
looks.
A few exposures of our man
made sun and you'll feel and look
as though you'd had a tropical
jaunt without ever having left
home!

Two NLRB Rulings
Adversely Affect
Building Trades

Washington (LPA)-Two NLRB
decisions at opposite ends of the
country adversely affect building
and construction unions.
In Seattle, Local Z, International
Association of Heat and Frost In
sulators and Asbestos Workers,
was ordered to issue work permits
to nonunion members and in New
London, Conn.,, five construction
unions were forbidden to picket a
firm employing nonunion workers.
Local z had al "card men" in
Seattle, but during the war $50
permit men" were used to install
Insulating materials in ships. When
work fell off after the war "per-
NIT men" were barred. NLRB ruled
this violation Of the Taft Hartley
act and directed the union to again
issue permits when requested and
also to make good loss of pay for
six workers denied employment.
The New London trouble started
in 1948 when New London Mills,
Inc, makers of hard-surface floor
coverings, used it's regular en-
ployes to install new machinery in
a plant it was building. AFL Iron
workers were laid off even though
they insisted the installation was
under their jurisdiction. The AFL
Building Trades Council picketed
the plant and all union construction
workers walked off.
The building was finished before
the NLRB got around to making a
ruling. The board said the unions
were violating the Taft Hartley act
by depriving the employer of his
freedom to hire.

8 Textile Unions
Sign With Union
After 6R Years

New York (LPA)-Three small
cotton textile plants in Texas have
signed with the Textile Workers
after 6A years Of battling.
They had fought National Labor
Board decisions all the way up TO
the US Supreme Court and lost.
And even then they had stalled.
But the other day the union filed
with the Senate subcommittee on
labor-management relations mem
oranda summarizing the facts. AL
most Immediately thereafter the
three employers, all on the same
day, signed contracts which for
years they had insisted they would
never agree to.
The three are: Itasca Manu-
featuring Co., Itasca; Hillsboro
Cotton Mills, Hillsboro; Mexia
Cotton Mills, Mexia.
In letter to Sen. James f..
Murray Cd, Mont), chairman Of
the Senate subcommittee, John W..
Edelman, TWUA Washington rep
resentative, pointed out that "sinp-
ly because a subcommittee Of the
Senate has undertaken to investi-
gate several situations involving
Enthusiastically protracted cases Of
stalling and evasion of obligations
(. some of these companies are
prepared at last to comply with
the law"
The letter deplored the fact that
the whole weight Of the federal
judiciary and the concern of Con-
gress had to be invoked "before a
few hundred cotton mill workers
could achieve elementary economic
and social rights, and added "this
is what it takes in 1850 to get a
great many textile employers to
sit down sincerely to do business
with their employees as the law and
ordinary common sense require"

what offset by taxes, will boost op-
Grating incomes since overhead is
relatively fixed.
MEATS and AIRY PRO
DUCTS: Earnings will at least be
maintained, since the armed SER
vices will buy heavily and civilian
demand increases in war periods.
METAL FABRICATING: 1850 will
show gains in earnings for most
companies, and good earnings
should continue even in the face
of an excess profits tax. But pro-
fit margins are lower on the heavy
goods demanded by war.
METALS: (non-ferrous): Out
put will be up this year and so will
earnings. Industry will m k e
money in a continued emergency.
MOTION PICTURES: A decline in
earnings is due this year. If other
amusements are curtailed the
movies will pick up, but not so
much during World War ii. You
have television now. OFF c K
EQUIPMENT: 1850 earnings will
be about the same as 1949. Arms
program will up demand for ac
counting, computing and tabulat-
ing and tabulating machines. Steel
shortage may cut other items.
OIL: Operations will increase be-
cause of larger military and civil
ian demands. Good profits are in
prospect and the industry is in
good position to face taxes.
PAPER: Sales and earnings will
reach new high this year and de-
mand will remain strong, partly
because of government require
ments. ROAD d S: Military
movements plus normal seasonal
rise will boost revenues for bal
ance of 1850. Earnings will be up|
Is percent over 1949. Business will
be better next year.
RAILROAD EQUIPMENT: Re-
viving earnings will offset higherl
taxes. Freight cars are in special
demand. RETAIL STORES: Vol
ume will make records as long as
goods are available. Larger earn
ings are expected. SHOES: Pro-
duction will certainly remain high
er than it was a year ago, and
government orders will push it'll
still higher. Profit margins may
widen as prices rise.
STEEL: Profit margins will at
least stay up and in many in
stances may be increased. Earnings |
should be up at least 25 percent
this year. Profits will be high even
after taxes. War will keep demand
at high level. TEXTILES: Near
production is in prospect
because of civilian spending and
buying. Prices may rise.
Earnings will be up this year.
(electric): Earnings
went up 16 percent the first half
of 1850. Despite new taxes, in
crease for the full year should be
up at least 10 percent over 1949.
The outlook: favorable for the for
seeable future.

that the steel industry is now be-
ing charged with being too big,
whereas only a few years ago it
was charged with being too small.
The industry was too small a few
years ago and is too small now;
and US Steel was too big at both
times"
In addition, observers recalled
that the War Contracts Investigat-
ing Committee, headed by Pres
ident Truman when he was a mem
Der of the Senate, once said:
"Three major factors delayed
steel expansion and are responsible
for our current (wartime) steel
shortage. :. The desire of the big
steel companies to prevent any fur
ther expansion that might react
unfavorably against their control
of the steel industry after the war.
They feared both the possibil-
ity of having excess capacities of
steelmaking facilities after the war
and the competition of smaller
companies which m G ht gain
during the war program.
The representatives and employees
of the big steel companies domin-
ated the Iron and Steel Branch Of
the War Production Board. They
first failed to direct or even allow
Finally they concentrat-
ed all of the belated expansion in
the hands of the eight largest COM
panies." 8
