FREE TEST FOR BLOOD
TYPES AT PUNGO HOSPITAL

All interested persons are urged
to get a free blood test to deter
mine their type of blood which
may be done at the Belhaven Dis
trict Hospital, according to Vann
Latham who heads a committee
from the American Legion Post
sponsoring the project. This may
be very important to the person
who knows his blood type for two
reasons. In case of injury or other
causes requiring transfusions, he
may more readily receive treat
ment, or in case of serious injury
to friend or relative requiring
blood, the right type of blood may
be found with least delay.

 That's the question fans are ask ing today as the thrilling American League pennant race takes time out for the All-Star game.
 Once again the Red Sox are rid ing high. threatening to take com mand. But in the background is an old Red Sox jinx an extended road trip, graveyard of Red Sox pennant hopes since 1946.
 The Red Sox famed anew their pennant dreams yesterday by beat- ing the New York Yankees, 6-2. The victory was their eighth straight at home over the Tanks and the 18th in their last IT starts.
 By winning, the Red SoX took over second place from the slump ing Tanks and remained a game be- hind the front-running Chicago White Sox who posted tough, 5-4 decision over the last-place St. Louis Browns.
 The Yanks are two games behind, and their third place position IS endangered by the onrushing Cleve-. land Indians who took a double header from their Detroit Tiger cousins" 8-3 and 10-2. The Indians are only four games out of first place.
 Boston, in dumping the Yankees, boosted it's Fenway Park record to 3O-1O. a .750 record. Away from tnelr friendly confines, the Red Sox have won only IT and lost l9 for second division, 472 gait.
 The Reds clash headon with the White Sox after Tuesdays Al-Star game interlude. They open a l3- game swing through the west with a four-game series in Chicago starting with a twi-night doubleheader Thursday.
 While the American League race frightened up yesterday, the Brook lyn Dodgers pulled 8ls games away from the runnerup New York Giants in the National.
 The Dodgers downed the Phila- delphia Phillies, 6-4, in 10 innings as the Giants dropped 6-5 decision to the Boston Braves, also in lo innings.
 The St. Louis Cardinals split a pair with the Pittsburgh Pirates, losing the opener, 6-2, but winning the nightcap, 9-8 A doubleheader between Chicago and Cincinnati was rained out. In remaining American League action, the Washington Sen ators humbled the Philadelphia Athletics twice, 3-1 and 8-2. A crowd of 2es43 fans saw the Tanks nick Ray Scarborough who turned in his second complete game of the season, for 80 lead in four innings. But two-run homers by Lou Boudreau and Clyde Vollmer in the fifth and sixth innings off Vic Raschi turned the tide for the Red Sox. Vic Rashi was charged with his sixth loss.
 Chicago also oyercame a deficit to beat the Browns. The Sox trailed, 4-3, entering the seventh when they tied the score.
