Bill Minner racking up three-for-
five each.

Macklin starred for the Gamers,

mates aboard Richard Simpson,
lanky first. sacker for the Gamers,

with two-for-four, while Maynard
Grunstra, playing his first official
game, had two-for-four with both
hits of the extra base variety.
Bob Reynolds, Jr., while hitting
in hard luck, with one for four,
played spectacular defensive
game at third, as did Larry Ham
mond behind the plate.
The Gamers are not in the least
daunted by their defeat. and take
pains to point out that six of the
men on the oldsters' team are top
notch players in any league. as
any number of .softball teams in
this area will attest to. The Can
ners are willing to play any team
hard ball in either Kent and Sus-

hear from teams desiring games.

NEW FERTILIZER PLANT

HAMMOND, Ind. - Up - A new
plant is going up here to produce
300 tons of ammonia day for fer
tilizer. 1t will use hydrogen, a by
product of gasoline production, and
nitrogen distilled from liquid air.
Farmers use special equipment to
inject ammonia into the soil to re-
place nitrogen used by plants. The
plants cannot use nitrogen until it
is combined with hydrogen, as in
ammonia, or some other element.
Agfonomists say the growing of so
bushels of corn on an acre will
remove 95 pounds of nitrogen from
the soil.
