Goetz Criticizes
AIS Tryout Of
Siena!inqWa!ks
BY the Associated Press

A veteran National League
umpire is sharply critical of the
American Leagues plan TO per-
NIT pitchers to give intentional
passes merely by informing the
umpire Of that intention.
That's going too far with this
speed-up craze" said Larry
Goetz, one Of the most respected
Of senior circuit arbiters,
They're taking something out OF
the game.
"I've seen q runner steal a
base while pitcher was throw
ing four wide ones. I've seen a
man picked of a base in a
similar situation. And you'll re-
call that last year a couple OF
batters leaned over and got a
hit while they we're trying to
walk them. I'm certainly glad
our league didn't go for the
change"

double that score.
1t is a matter of record that
IA bowler has hit every object
pin. yet come up with less than
100.
An experience Of this nature
was suffered last night by the
top league duckpinner of the
area, judged on current aver
ages. Bobby Lockhart. leading
both the District Major and
Minor Leagues, came UP with q
1922 set. There was no positive
explanation for it.
Sometimes you get 'em, and
sometimes you don't" the ex-
perts say.
But this philosophy was nc
consolation whatever to young
Lockhart who ruefully noted the
dent in his Minor League aver
age, as q member of the jenkins
Sheet Metal team. It shrank to
1859. For a long stretch it was
130-plus, then shaved to 1919.
Chief beneficiary of Lockharts
cropper was a teammate. Frank
Bradsher, who rolled ABS, high
lighted by a 100 game. Brad
sher thus lifted his average al
most a full point. to 1918
which left him barely a point
behind Lockhart. Also gaining
handsomely on the leader was
Danny Pessagno, in third place
who shot 1886 for the Bank OF
Maryland to place him approxi-
mately q point short OF Brad
sher. d.
Bradsher was high man of the
evening in the sizzling l8-team
league, but only four sticks
ahead Of Dick Dunaj. whose 172-
431 for Briggs Ice Cream was
one Of the finest scores in his
long career.
And Dunaj was only pin
better than Clayton Morgan OF

FOSTER CARE PRO

In our fl st article Of this series we discussed the types
Of foster homes needed. Today we wish to discuss how we
select these homes. Interested individuals come into the office
and talk with us and after we have thoroughly discussed
the matter with them, make out an application if they are
still interested. After this, a study is made by a caseworker
to determine what the home can offer a child.
Foster parents must be more than good people with a
home and love to give a child. They must understand how
caring for a child in placement differs from caring for a child
Of their own. The objective of foster home placement is the
eventual return Of the child to its own parents, therefore,
the foster parents have the dual role of helping the child to
feel wanted in the home and at the same time to feel loved
and wanted by his parents.
The social worker studies a home from many points.
The determination of a proper home does not rest on mea-
surfing goodness or badness, but depends largely on an under
standing of what makes children behave as they do and how
this will affect the foster parents relationship to the child.
Some points taken under consideration are:
l. The reason for wanting to take children into the home.
2. The physical condition Of the home and whether it
meets the minimum standards necessary to provide adequate
care for the child.
8. Willingness of the foster parents to work along with
ing with behavior problems.
4. Presence in foster parents Of good judgement and an
ability to guide and direct youngsters in ways which will help
adjustment.
5. The ability of foster parents to treat the child as a
child and not to expect him to behave as an adult.
6. The ability to treat the child as his own.
There is an urgent need for foster homes in ST. Croix,
without which the Division Of Child Welfare cannot carry
out its program adequately. If you are interested in offering
your services, please cali Mrs. Evalyne Baylor Of the Division
of Child Welfare = telephone. No. %.
