Mems Group
Picnic
Supper Here

Who said SD et tt r late than
never?" And we're late on this.
INone-the-less, the Mems Group of
the Presbyterian Church gave a
picnic supper on the church grounds
on June 16 and some 65 wives, chill
dren and members turned out for
the affair.
The three gentlemen who also
turned out, and in the doing turned
out right-fancy picnic fare, were
Riley Ray, Stewart Nicewarner and
Theodore Mason. The gentlemen of
the cooking talents cooked un a
batch of barbequed hot dogs on
the church's outdoor fireplace;
heated up considerable quantity
of baked beans; tossed up a whale
of salad in the form of cole slaw
and served iced tea, milk, ice cream
and cake.
/ While the cooks were burning
themselves to death over a hot
fireplace the rest of the members,
ct cetera, pitched horse shoes, play
ed croquet and INDUCED in wise
crack aimed at the cooks.
The ladies of the church are
now challenged by the Mems Group
to turn out a dinner to compare

TALLAHASSEE - Having
scored 1893 points in is games
and one of the few major un-
beaten fives in the country, the
Florida A and M College cagers
have averaged 1911 points per
game in displaying one OF the
most potent offenses yet to be
seen this season.
The Rattlers went on the road
last week and swept through
Alabama with the fury of trop-
ical hurricane by downing the
Tuskegee Golden Tigers 1855,
Alabama A and M 77-50, and
Alabama State 62-49. They re-
turned to Tallahassee and met the
invading Turner Air Force five
of Albany, Ga, and promptly
hung a stunning 80-27 defeat on
the men in blue.
Famcee's opposition has scored
TOT points to average All points
this season. Tuskegee in scoring
81 points in one contest while
transforming against the Rattlers
during the Christmas holidays, is
the only squad to tally that many
points against the Tallahassee
five. However, the Rattlers have
beaten the "Skegee" cagers six
times this season, five times on
the tour.

make this statement concerning
the so baseball season. Rector
Rodriguez, Chicago White Sox in
fielder, should be a flaming star
despite his age if played regular

Many Cuban ballplayers like
Jose Mendez and others carried on
brilliantly after a period when
writer's and fans considered them
"old" in a baseball sense. Rodri-
guez is the sort of hustling player
that was Horatio Martinez, N. Y.
Cubans.
No matter how great an ath-
lete is or what his unpublished po-
tentials promise, without COM
plete mind contentment he cannot
play up to standard. Larry Dolby,
Cleveland Indians super -outfield-
er, is admittedly a fine ballplay-
er measured by any and all
standards.
His "swing-for-the-fence bat
ing style is a solid box-otflce
magnet. l do not know what is
the underlying trouble between
Dolby and the Cleveland front OF
flee anymore than my readers do.
Obviously, however, it would
be better for all concerned If the
Patterson, NJ. athlete switched
to another uniform - and that
right away. Dolby, Lucius Easter

winner in 81 but the crystal ball

weeds warrant disking to remove
the weeds so. a grain drill can be
used. Preparing loose soils with a
spiked-tooth harrow is sufficient.
When the weed growth is sparse
and the soil loose, drilling among
the weeds is sufficient
One method used where soil prep
aration is impractical is to drive
sheep over the area to trample the
seed into the ground. Also a har-
row or brush drag can be used to
cover the seed. Different methods
of broadcasting the seed are used
with some success. but in most cases
covering the seed is advisable.
Amount Of Seed
The amount of seed sown per
acre is of prime economical impor-
tance. For crested wheatgrass, 8
to 5 pounds of seed sown in rows
II inches apart is sufficient for
abandoned plowed land. Using more
than pounds of seed per acre will
not increase the yield.
Several factors govern the depth
which the seed is sown. If the
seed has been sown too deep, addi-
tional covering by. the wind may
impair its start, while if the seed
has been sown too close to the sur
face the wind may uncover it. The
depth advised for most grass seeds
is three-fourths Of an inch to one
inch.
Results Of planting crested wheat
grass may not show in the first
year if weather conditions are not
favorable, and in dry. years the
seeds may not terminate. Because
of this, if good results are not OBJ
tanned the first year, at least one
other year should be allowed be-
fore the results are confirmed.
Planting a cereal crop before
seeding to grass has proven effec-
tive and economical on formerly
plowed or cheatgrass-infested land.
Types of cereal crops used are rye,
barley and wheat, with rye giving
the best results. Oats are not salts
factory because they mature toe
early and the wild seed always
present in oats will come back and
hinder the grass seedlings. Sudan
grass, although not a cereal grain
is sometimes used and cut for hay
The preparatory crop method al
lows land to be reseeded which
normally would prove unecon-
omical. The returns from the pre-
paratory crop covers most of the
cost Of seeding.
