AT 4 recent joint Executive
Advisory Committee meeting
held at the Clover Crest Hotel

Croix can no longer be dis
regarded when its interests
are at stake!'
Also discussed was "the
new attitude Of tourists re-
garding the Virgin Islands,
and dangers that lie ahead,
which could seriously hurt
this new industry which is fast
becoming a part Of the basic
economy Of the Island. Ger
tain recommendations for ac-
ton were made to assist In
encouraging additional travel
to ST. Croix and have our visi-
torSleave with an enthusiastic
feeling about this Island"

Dear Mr.. Sports Editor:

Dear Mr.. Sports Editor:
In last Friday afternoons paper
there was an article which read:
G. E. whips Coca Cola, etc. &.
In that article it was stated that
manager Grip LaStres of Coca
Cola pulled off one of the most
awkward plays ever pulled.
With runners on first and second,
manager LastreS ordered pitcher
Gibby Gates to walk the next bait
er, Earl Smith, who as far as I'm
concerned is a good hitter. Smith
was Intentionally passed, thus load
ing the bases. The point of this
play, dear Editor, was for there to
be a ''force OUT, yes, l said a
force OUT, at any base. But the
next hitter, Claude Valdez hit a
home run scoring all runners and
whoever covered the game for your
paper says is was awkward.
Friday, one week later, Manager
Charley Grimm of the Boston
Braves, ordered his pitcher, War
rem SPAIN, to walk Andy Pafko to
loda the bases, looking for a
''force outs, that's right editor, I
said ''force OUT.
Mind you now, they pulled it In
the big leagues. What If Pafko had
hit a home run or a double, etc.
But, the point is, Mr.. Editor, that
when an amateur manager Grip
Lastres pulled that play, II
Claude Valdez had flied or ground,
ed out he would have been smart
manager. So. Mr.. Editor, when
they pull it in the big leagues, It
is because the managers are good
and know what they are doing. Do
you?
Instead of writing falsehoodS a.
bout people, why don't you learn
the fundamentals of Americas IA
vorite pastime--playing ball?
Thank you
(Eds. note: When baseball mana
gers get away with that sort of
thing they are heroes, when they

Mississippi State footballers
haven't done much rough work
this week and it's probably just as
well. They'll need all the strength
they can muster Saturday against
Tennessee.
The light workouts were ordered
for fear of injuries. If they can
throw whole men into the fray
against Tennessee'S crutch-carry-
ing cripples-well, who knows?
At Knoxville, Gen. Bob Neyland
said it looked like two injured tail
backs, Jimmy Wade and Pat Olek-
siak, would not play Saturday
against the Maroons. "We'll be
awful thin at tailback II they can't
play" said the general. But he
didn't seem worried sick.
Kentucky has several of It's best
gridders sidelined by injuries, not
from that shellacking at the hands
of Villanova last week but because
of it. After the 25-6 whipping last
Saturday, the Kentuchans came in
for two heavy bruising workouts in
a row and were so worn down they

day.

upset MissiSsippi's Johnny Vaught
this week. He figures Mississippi
might have had a chance to slip
up on the Wildcats Saturday If
Villanova hadn't shown the Ken
tucks they were vulnerable. ''Now
Kentucky is certain 10 be ready"
Vaught said.
