serious the traffic accident prob
lem has become, or how much i.
concerns everyone of us. Yet, there
probably is not a man or woman
in this community who does not
have neighbor, a friend, or
member of his family who has
been injured in traffic acciden:
at some time.
'It may sound unbelievable, but
it is true, that last year there was
an injury in traffic in the United
States every "a seconds. A total of
'1,350,000 persons were injured to
the point where they were dis
abled beyont the day of the acci-
dent. The price we paid for these
accidents, in terms of medical ex-
pense, property damage and other
costs was roughly $4 billion.
"a problem that takes toll of
these proportions is one that we
simply cannot let go unchallenged.
That is one of the reasons for s.
D Day" This day is designed to
make us realize, among other
things, that the place to attack
the traffic problem is right here
in our own community. And, the
responsibility rests upon each in
dividual-not the other fellow
but you and l."
The Mayor pointed out that ex-
perts from all over the country
have been studying the traffic
problem for many years, and they
have worked out certain basic
steps which can bring about safe
ty on our streets and highways.
But" Mayor Harold G. Jeremy
commented, none of these prov
en- methods can be successful un-
less there is public support for
them. So, l am hopeful that SD
Day. and the activities which lead
up to it, will help us all to realize
that traffic safety is something
which we must strive for continu-
ally
"On this day-Wednesday, De-
cember 15th-let us all do the
very best we can to givN our at
tention to these things:
81. Observe the letter and the
spirit of all traffic regulations
"2. Be courteous to every driver
and pedestrian -practic C
sportsmanship.
SO. Give full attention to driv
ing and walking.
SIN short: Drive and walk as you
would have everyone else drive
and wtlk If we can do this or
just one day, perhaps we'll realizt
how important it is to do likewise
every day."

PHILADELPHIA. Oct. Is
Mayo Smith. an obscure stranger
from the New York Yankees
farm system, has replaced Terry
Moore as manager Of the Phillies
all of which leaves Philadelphia
baseball fans in a magnificent
dither, what with the squab-
bling over whether the Athletics
remain here or go to Kansas
City.
The appointment Of Smith, an
nounced yesterday, came as a
total surprise, although Moore's
personal future had been un-
certain. The 39-year-old Smith
managed Birmingham to third
place in the Southern Associa-
ton the past season.
Played for AS in as.
His major league experience
consists of 73 games as a left
handed hitting outfielder for the
Athletics in 1945 and his players
will have to do better than he
did to make the grade. In the
tail-end of wartime baseball,
Smith hit only .212.
He has been managing in the
Yankee chain since 1949 when
he started with Amsterdam,
N. Y, in the Class c Canadian
American League. He won pen
nants in the Class c Piedmont
League with Norfolk in 1851
and 1852 before moving to Bir-
mingham.
Smith was almost total
stranger when he was intro
duced at the Phillies' press con-
ference, and even Moore, whom
he replaces, admitted: "I'm
sorry but I never heard of the
man." Moore had been around
only since July Is. when he took
over from Steve O'Neill.
Hammer Run-In Recalled.
General Manager Roy Hamey
said Moore was dropped because
he lacked experience as a man
ager and for no other reason
Reports persisted, however, that
the former St. Louis outfielder's
chances of continuing with the
Phils suffered a major setback
when he had a run-in with
Second Baseman Granny Ham,
ner last August.
Smith was silent on any i'm
mediate changes, admitting he
knows the Phillies' players only
by reputation.

pitching is the biggest strength,

Griffith 10 Seek
New Meeting
For Vote on As
Says He's Aiming
To Halt Rush Act
Toward Kansas City
By Burton Howkins

Clark Griffith, president of
the Senators, said today he
would request another American
League meeting to reconsider
the proposed transfer Of the
Philadelphia Athletics to kansas
City"
Griffith said he planned to
request the meeting to stop this
rush act toward Kansas City,"
He added that he was certain he
would have support in his at
tempt to obtain another meet
ing.
The Senator's president also
said that if Roy Mack, executive
vice president of the Athletics,
was successful in keeping the
team in Philadelphia. he would
cancel his request for another
meeting.
Group Reported Meeting.
An Associated Press dispatch
said a group of 20 men met at a
Philadelphia bank today to pool
more than enough money to get
behind Mack and save the Ath-
letics for the city. The report said
Art Gallagher. a wealthy trucker:
John McShain. millionaire build
ing contractor and a Norris
town man identified as Lehman
were part of the combine which
was pledging $150,000 apiece.
The reports said the group had
gone so far as to contact Frank
lefty O'Doul to see If he
would be interested in managing
the team and was considering
Ed Mulligen, another West
Coast baseball man. as the new
general manager.
Earlier, Calvin Griffith, Sena-
tors vice president, said he be-
lieves he can obtain necessary
support in the fight to block
the transfer to Kansas City very
easily"
Two More Votes Needed.
Two votes in addition to the
Senators dissenting voice must
be acquired to prevent the shift.
Spike Briggs. president of the
Detroit Tigers, is lined up with
Calvin, who is convinced he has
the other vital vote. He refused
to name the club which would
join the Senators and Tigers.
