Accustomed to extracting con-
siderable mileage from National
League retreads. the Yankees
seemingly have purchased
another bargain In Jim Kon-
Stanty.
In desperate need Of q crack
relief pitcher for their stretch
battle with Indians, the Yankees
may have found their man in the
37-year-old highlander who
was q standout with the pen
nant-winning Phils of 1850.
Konstanty has pitched six
innings in two outings for the
Yankees and hasn't been dam
aged. He blanked the Senator'S
for five innings last night at
Griffith Stadium after replacing
Harry Byrd and the Yankees
rewarded him with his first
American League victory. 90.
He previously had pitched q
scoreless inning against the
Indians.
In Finest Tradition.
If Konstanty's arm helps the
Yankees overhaul the Indians 1t
will be in, the finest tradition Of

competent relieving. plus a IL
hit attack against Chuck Stobbs
and Camilo Pascual, enabled the
Yankees to remain 312 games be-

play which opened the gates for
the Yankees in the fifth inning.

Konstonty Hats Senators;
Wilhelm Stars for Giants

NEW YORK, Sept. 4.-Hoyt
Wilhelm's first hit Of the season
was the deciding blow in the New
York Giants ia victory over
Brooklyn last night. But you
might have thought it was Willie
Mays or Dusty Rhodes at the
plate by the way the Dodgers
huddled before pitching to the
ace relief hurler.
Dodger Captain Pee Wee Reese
and Pitcher Jim Hughes called
time in the seventh inning with
Wilhelm at bat and summoned
Manager Walter Aston from the
dugout.
The score was tied at "A.

plate.
Hughes Calls Conference.
Hughes got ready to pitch,
hesitated. then called Catcher
RUDE Walker to the mound. After
a brief talk, Hughes motioned to
Reese to join the conference.
Reese finally yelled to the bench
for Aston. The crowd of 46,611
wondered what was going on.
Hughes finally threw to Will
helm, and Wilhelm hit the first
pitch for a wobbly single to Gen.
ter to drive in what proved the
decisive run. The Giants added
two more runs in the eighth as
Wilhelm shut out the Dodgers
the rest of the way for a IA
win.
The victory boosted New York's
lead in the National League race
to four full games over Brooklyn.
The Giants are pitching Ruben
Gomez (12-9) in today's game
at the Polo Grounds in an effort
to pull five games away. Brook
lyn is using Carl Erskine.
After last nights game, it was
revealed that all the conferences
around the pitching mound in
volved discussions how to pitch
to Wilhelm, the guy who had
gone to bat Is official times this
season and hadn't come close to
getting a hit. It seems that no.
body on the club could recall
how to pitch to the Giant hurler.
The Dodgers had faced Wilhelm
many times since he came up
in 1852 but his batting appear

few and far between.
Dodgers Very Quiet.
AS you would expect, the
Dodger dressing room was as
quiet as a graveyard. The only
one willing to talk was Aston.

manager said. Nobody knew

Game Rated Toss-up
As Redskins Iangle
With Bears Tonight
By Lewis T. Atchison
sfor Stuff Correspondent

COLUMBIA, s. c.. Sept. a.
The Redskins and Chicago Bears
will renew q rivalry that used to
be one Of the most colorful In
pro football when they meet here
tonight in the second annual
Elks Charity Fund game at Caro-
lima Stadium.
The kickoff is scheduled for 9
pm. washington time) and q
lay-by-play will be broadcast
over Station WMAL.
A holiday weekend crowd of
more than $4,000 is expected for
the game, and with the Redskins
110-piece marching band as an
added attraction it will get the
full pro treatment. Indian dane
ing girls will take over the stage
for the half-time entertainment.
May Be On Ragged Side.
The game itself may be some
what on the ragged side, for the
Redskins are in the process of
being reorganized under Coach
Joe Kuharich. while the Bears
have not yet hit the stride ex-
pected of them. The Redskins
are badly crippled but Kuharich
is confident he'll field a faster,
more aggressive eleven than he
had in Detroit.
Not since 1945, when they
won a 1921 victory en- route
to their last division title, have
the Redskins defeated the Bears.
Since then, the Chicagoans have
won six straight league games,
including a 27-24-upset last sea-
son at Griffith Stadium when
little Eddie Macon stole the
show. That should give the
Washington team an added in
centive tonight.
The game is rated a tossup
although the Bears should have
a slight edge. George Halas'
men dropped two of their first
three games, losing to the Chi
cago Cardinals. 100, and to the
Philadelphia Eagles, 24-21, after
whipping the Pittsburgh Steel
ers, 21-14. The Redskins have
yet to crack the win column
against a pro rival, dropping
three straight decisions, but
they've played the toughest ex-
hibition schedule of any team
IN the league. In losing to the
Los Angeles Rams, 27-7, San
Francisco Forty-Niners, 30-7,
and Detroit Lions. 37-7, they
bowed to the three teams ex-
pected to slug it out for the Ma
tlonal Football League cham
pionship this season.

Quinine Tablets for
Triumph Over Hoad
By the Associated Press

FOREST HILLS, N. Y. Sept.
4.-Young Ham Richardson at
last has come of tennis age. and
quinine pills may be the medi-
cine Uncle Sam needs to win
back the Davis Cup.
Quinine pills did it - they
brought me through that fifth

University law student said after
he had eliminated Australia s
No. i ace. Lewis Hoad, in the
quarter finals Of the National
Tennis championships yesterday

As, 6-3. stamped Richardson
as a good bet to carry one OF
the American singles assignments
against the Australians in the
Devils Cup Challenge Round at
Sydney next December.
Weakened in Stretch.
Tennis fans who saw Richard
son lose a Straight-Setter to this
same Hoad last year-and who
had been accustomed to seeing
him fold in the stretch in all
long, tough matches - were
amazed at the great improve
ment of the 21-year-old college
champion.
Richardson credited a bit OF
advice this summer during the
Pennsylvania grass courts tour
nament.
"A doctor told me to take
quinine tablets" Ham said. IT'D
been accustomed to getting leg
cramps in long matches. So
could only go at an 80 per cent
pace when things got tough
Now I can go at 100 per cent
pace all the time"
Richardson, a diabetic, took
one quinine pill before the
match and another at the end
Of the fourth set. He was
stronger than Hoad at the finish.
Richardson rests today while
the remainder of the field
catches up with him in the semi
finals.

of San Francisco for the right

A Way To Solve The Teacher SHORTAGE

with the problem of making lends meet
during the three summer months. The
Christmas vacation results in a period of
Illustration for teacher with family
it's strictly a matter of expenditures with
out the first trace of revenue.
The last all-out drive to improve con-
ditions in the teaching profession resulted
in satisfactory pay increase. Although
teachers will never be paid what they de-
serve, there is a great need for such meas
ures as vacations with pay, sick leave and
a reduction in the number of students per
teacher.
When these measures are attained
then the Education Association will find
that it has something positive to offer a
young student. 1t would go a long way in
solving the teacher shortage that now
exists.
With such improvements there is a
strong possibility that some of the valu-
able teachers who gave up the profession
for better working conditions would return
to the classroom.
We don't envy the Associations lob of
Turing students into the teaching profess
sion as long as they have nothing to offer
other than splendid opportunities for
life of satisfying work with children and
young people"
Tabor City tribune. (Tabor City, N.C.) 1946-1991, 1954-11-10

A recent article prepared by the North
Carolina Education Association cites the
need of young students training for the
teaching profession.
There is a definite shortage of teachers
in North Carolina and the Association is
laced with the difficult task of convincing
Joung students that they should train for
me of the most important professions in
our entire country.
We can't help but feel that the job of
.ecruiting teachers would be much easier
one could point to specific advantages
)ther than merely appealing to ones
motions. The high cost of living and the
bundance of luXures in life make one
think twice before he losses aside a career
with high pay and replaces it with one
that offers splendid opportunities for
life of satisfying work with children and
young people"
It's true that the teachers are required
o spend only eight hours each day, five
lays a week in the classroom. They even
receive an adequate salary for the nine
months they are employed and enjoy the
social prestige of the better paid profess
Sions. They are rewarded with the thought
that they are rendering an important
service to mankind
On the other hand, they are faced

money but all l got left Is this
pretty pebble and can't part
with it."
An understanding teacher took
Il upon herself to visit the boys
parents. She was wasting her
time and knew it as the parents
confided in her that they knew
what was best for their children
and didn't need any teacher to
tell them how to spend their
money"
Such is an isolated case but
similar circumstances prevail
throughout North Carolina
schools each year. The school Of
ficials are faced with the prob
lem of providing not only for
those who need free lunches"
but also they must cope with
providing meals for those who
come from families financially
able to pay their own way.
One doesn't have to 60 to the
other side of the Tar Heel State
to find these conditions-they
exist in our own community.
Only through the help Of local
citizens can the situation be al
leviated.
Civic clubs are beginning to
take notice of these needs and
the local Civilians are planning
to offer aid. 1t takes money and
the Civilians are sponsoring

of making money so they can
lend assistance at the school.

A student hungry for food has

A Hungry Youngsfer
PLAIN TALK:
BY AL HARRISON

The small boys pockets jingl-
ed with the usual collection of
trinkets-a sheriff's badge from
box of breakfast cereal, a toy
whistle, marbles, the small rab-
bits foot to remind him of the
last hunting trip he went on
with his Dad.
Like most small boys the be-
ginning of the school year gave
him an opportunity to compare
trinkets with his classmates. He
snapped his whistle for a shiny
pebble that sparkled in the sun.
Even though the boy knew bet
ter-he took delight in staring
at the pebble and pretending it
would someday make him rich.
The school schedule was zoom-
ing along into the third month
when the curly-haired lad quit
going to the lunch room. None
suspected that he didn't have
the twenty cents for a meal
his family was financially able
to afford a new automobile and
spent 1.-The evenings enjoying
their new television set.
After the lad missed going to
the lunch room twice, the teach
er began to observe as only
teacher can. Instead of remain
ing in the room on the third day,
the boy followed his mates into
the cafeteria-his purchase was
a carton of milk.
Slowly but surely the familiar
Jingle OF the boys pockets began
to fade away. A tall black-hair-
ed youngster wore the familiar
sheriff'S badge and the little
blond with pig tails carried the
good luck charm-the rabbits
loot. AT last the little boy had
found a way to provide his
lunches although it was painful
having to swap his worldly pos
sessions for a trip through the
cafeteria.
With only the small pebble
clutched in his hand, the boy
strobe, with head high, to the
teachers desk and said, II amt
got no money but I'm hungry.
I've been selling my prizes and
buying my lunches with the
