Goes for Title
BY BOB HANSON

When Federal Bureau of In
vestigation needed to clinch the
City Series sandlot baseball
championship last year Manager
Charley Beall turned to his ace
pitcher. Billy Carroll. for the all
important game.
Carroll, former Georgetown
University star. came through
against Arcade Pontiac and the
G-Men had their first champion
ship in 10 years.
The title game was pitched by
Carroll with only one days rest.
A similar situation prevails to-
day. FBI shut out the Air Force
Jets, TO, yesterday at the West
Ellipse. The game was seen by
nearly 1000 fans stretched along
both foul lines.
JCtS " Use JOuuSOu
A victory today will clinch the
title for FBI and Manager Beall
is going all out by using Right
handler Carroll, who pitched and
won Tuesday in semifinals
against Silver Hill.
Manager Ted Brown of the
Jets will start Tom johnson, also
a righthander and the Satchel
Paige of the Sandlots, in hopes of
tying the series.
Game time is Sis pm. at the
South Ellipse.
The top man in FBI's victory
yesterday was Steve Bauk,
slender southpaw formerly Of
George Washington University.
Bauk choked off the Jets with
four hits, struck out eight and
walked one. He set down the
first IL batters in order.
Make 1t Convincing
FBI scored a run in the third
inning on two walks and Ray
Smiths single. It added a run
in each the fifth and sixth in
nings. then broke up the game
with four in the seventh.
In the seventh, FBI loaded the
bases on an error, single and
walk. Walt Jacinski singled I'M
two runs and when the return
throw from the outfield rolled
into the crowd, a third came in.
Jacinski scored the final run on
Ian error.
The Jets protested the deci-
sion made on the wild throw. in
which a run was allowed, but the
protest was not upheld by Jack

Vasquez 70 Give
500 Real Fight,
Ahearn Says

After watching Bernabe
(Baby) Vasquez. the Mexican
lightweight champion in a work.
out here yesterday, Promoter
Goldie Ahearn enthusiastically
predicted that We're going to
have us one whale of q good
fight Friday night"
Vasquez is meeting undefeated
Jimmy 500 of Philadelphia in
Ahearn's 10-rounder tomorrow
night at Capitol Arena, and
Ahearn attended the workout
to see what kind of fighter
Vasquez really is. Ahearn has
seen 500 several times, but this
was his first glimpse of the Mexi-
can, and he was impressed.
Some of those Mexicans are
q lot of flash, sort of hit-and-
run guys" Goldie said. "but you
can see that Vasquez is diff
ferent. He seems to like to wade
In there and take a good chunk
out of you. He looks like a slug
ger, and 500 is a slugger too, Sc
maybe I'd better get me an
emergency fight to fill out the
rest of the hour in case they
knock each other out early"
Ahearn predicted that 800 is
going to have his hands full this
time. It's his first show on ma
tional television and I know he's
ready" Goldie continued. This
500 has quite a following up
there in Philadelphia-they call
him The Crazy Chinaman' and
a couple of busloads of Phila-
delphia people are coming down
with him.
Hes crazy all right" Goldie
declared, land you'll know what
/ mean when you see him fight
He's about 5-foot-4, built close
to the ground. and all he does
is run after the other guy and
throw punches. He gets dumped
himself sometimes because he
don't worry about defense, but
he always get up, and so fal
he's won SO straight fights.
"You know what his trainer
told me-Jimmy Wilson, who
handles nothing but the best
is his trainer-he told me some
thing that's worth printing. He
said to me about 500. and its
a real fine statement. that As
sure as birds can fly and fishes
can swim. 500 is going to be the
next lightweight champion"

DEPARTMENT or THE INTERIOR SHOULD ACT

CYRIL F. KING is a conscientious young man. He's
energetic, and like 50 many other natives, maintains q high
level Of concern for his native Islands. He is in a position
to speak, not only as a native, but as one whose experience
and training give hin some insight into government He is
not only on the staff Of Senator Hubert Humphrey Of Mime
sofa, but holds a degree in political science from American.
University in Washington.
1 or H was said by way Of background How
ever, with his youth and enthusiasm may end his efforts to
have something done with respect to the government OF these
Islands. 1t was not long ago that this paper, for one, attempt
ed to call attention to the seriousness of the situation, and
appealed directly to the Governor, the Senate, and the De
partment of.the interior.
THAT THERE IS a serious situation existing no one
can deny; that things sometimes seem at a standsdll also
is without question, but the answers. are as elusive as ever,
and that makes all the more difficult any set solution at any
given period Of time.
U THERE IS a way out. To find this way, the De
partment Of the Interior will have to take time out to make
the proper studies and findings, set these out before the peo-
pie and all concerned, and then proceed to invite sound
practical solutions to these problems. To continue to say
that the be-aH and end-all lies in hesHTesponSibility OF the
people Of these Islands is not only begging the question,
but a seemingly unwise attempt to get around the real pro-
blem.
M OF most unfortunate approaches to the en-
tire situation IS the attitude that only certain quarters know
what is best for the Islands, and the entire matter ends
there. The normal trial and error of day-to-day government
tai action may be lacking, and here, too, blow dealt to flu
ture good government.

common. Don Tavenner say it's best
to grade the calf before it's weighed
as there would be tendency to let its
weight influence your judgment It's
possible, he says, that a 9O-pound calf
could grade medium, while a light GO
pound calf could be choice.
In the fall when the calves are
weaned they are run onto a scale. The
ear-tag number is noted, and the wean-
ing weight is recorded alongside of its
birth weight.
Permanent Record
All of the data are transferred to a
permanent record book that will even
tually contain the records on every
cow for her entire life in the herd.
At glance they'll be able to tell
each cows age, the birth and weaving
weights of her calves and their average
daily gain. They'll know which COWS
are producing and which ones are drag
ging their feet.
When replacement heifers are being
selected check of the record bool,
will tell which cows have consistently
produced quality calves that showed
good daily gains from birth to weaving.
A COW has to produce a lot of milk
to raise a big, growthy calf and she'll
pass that ability on to her daughters.
Theren be no guesswork involved
when choosing requirements on the
basis of the records.
Calving on the Williams & Taven-
ner ranch is handled similarly to
Landing operation. In addition to a
calving shed. they have several jugs
where cow which is reluctant to &C.
cept her calf can be placed until she
and her offspring get better acquainted.
If a calf dies it is skinned and the
hide is placed over an orphaned calf
SO it can be grated onto foster
mother. Sometimes one calf is taken
away from a COW which has had twins
and given to COW which has lost her
calf.
During bad weather at calving time
the calves are placed in a large cabinet
equipped with heat lamps. Tavenner
says they can stand any kind of weather
once they're dried off and get bottle
of warm milk in their stomachs. Taven-
ner warns, however, that prolonged ex-
poSure under white lamps may cause
blindness. Red heat lamps have given
them no trouble.
