A strong plea to Washington
fans to get behind the Congress
sional Base Ball Game next
Wednesday night at Griffith
Stadium and by their patronage
assure that all needy children
get to camp this summer was
made yesterday by Representa-
tives Bishop, manager Of the Re-
publican team and Herlong,
manager Of the Democratic team.
All Of the proceeds Of the
game will be turned over to The
Evening Stars summer camp
fund.
The first contingent to go to
camp, $40 children who will be
taken to Camps Good Will and
Camp Pleasant, will leave Thurs
day for their two weeks Of health
full outdoor life. Contributions
already made to the fund viii
finance their camp life.
Joint Statement.
In a joint statement, the two
managers declared:
while Congress has a lot Of
fun out Of this game, not only
the playing members but the
others who come out to cheer
and laugh on occasions when the
game falls a little short Of pro-
fessional standards, back of 1t
all is a sincere desire on our part
to help the youngsters who
otherwise would live the summer
out on Washington's hot streets.
Many people who might hest
tate to contribute as little as a
dollar to the fund should find
the dollar well-Spent if used to
purchase a ticket to the game.
1.-THE Armed Services go to a
great deal Of trouble to stage an
impressive series Of drills and
parades before the game and the
Servicemen and servicewomen
who participate gladly give up
their time to aid in this cause.
Practically everyone on the
Hill will be at the game and the
various members Of the House
and Senate purchase tickets
literally, taking many guests.
The Congressional Secretaries
have worked diligently in selling
the tickets. The members of the
teams have developed many a
sore muscle in getting In condi-
ton to play. We have done our
part and we sincerely urge
WaShingtonians to do theirs by
supporting the game, not only

Man Who Saw Life
of Daughter Saved
Urges Blood Gifts

A Washington lawyer whose
young daughters life was saved
by q series Of blood transfNsions,
issued an appeal yesterday for
increased blood donations for
others who need it.
The lawyer, Scott G.. Rigby, Of
6205 Poindexter lane, Luxmanor,
Md, wrote a letter to all men,
bers Of the National Press Club,
Of which he is a member, asking
for their support when the Red
Cross bloodmobile visits the club
on Wednesday.
His daughter, q year old now
and in excellent health, was
born with Rh-factor blood, which
required complete replacement
by TRANSMISSION at birth.
Sees Real Meaning.
Mr.. Rigby said "the Red Cross
blood program has asreal mean
ing If you see a life saved by
available blood. That happened
to me-my daughters life was
saved when she was born, because
blood was available"
During the week, the Wash
ington Regional Blood Center
distributed 1872 pints Of blood
in the District and communities
covered by the bloodmobiles In
Maryland, Virginia and West
Virginia. A total Of 314 pints
were shipped to the Defense De-
partment.
In addition to the bloodmobile
schedule, Red Cross donors may
give blood from 9 am. to pm.
Garfield Hospital; from, to g
pm. Mondays through Fridays
and from 2 to 5 pm. on Sundays
at Freedmens Hospital; and
from 8 am. to 4 pm. Mondays

Tickets for the game may be
bought in the House Office build

the same holds true. Eighteen

the same thing.
The game offers an excellent
opportunity to spend an interest

AOS ANCELES.
You can cure a Southern Cali
fornia starfish almost as easily
as you can boil an egg.
In fact, the multicolored
starfish, found in such abun-
dance on rocky points all along
the 200 miles of Pacific Ocean
shoreline, should first be boiled
just about as long as it takes
to hard-boil an egg.
Then, for five days in a row,
you simply paint the starfish
with formaldehyde (Which is
available at almost any drug
store). Be sure to keep the star
fish flat on a board, so its five
legs don't curl. Be sure. too, not
to get formaldehyde on your
skin. It burns.
Any old brush will do, as long
as you don't plan to use it again
except for curing more star
fish. They make fine souvenirs
of your Southern California va
cation.

Literary values, by themselves,

Ride a river boat and you'll
learn why Americas great in
land sea, flowing through the
heart of the Nation, flows like
life blood in the hearts of many
men. You'll learn a lot OF
things:
There's more commerce afloat
on the Mississippi River system
now than ever before, more even
than in the heyday of the two
stackers just a century ago.
Americans, great believers in
progress, bury the past quickly
but there are long Shoreline
stretches Of the Mississippi and
its tributaries that haven't
changed in centuries.
Although this liquid history
keeps right on rolling along
there is only one overnight pas
senger vessel plying the rivers
today. Oil, steel, grain and doz-
ems of other commodities float
in barge towS which sometimes
cover 2la acres of space. But
most people are so intent on get
ting there fastest these days that
a single boat offers vacation voy-
ages on the rivers.
