night determined to resume
their climb at Washington's ex-
pense.
Hoeft hasn't confronted his
pet whipping boys this year but
the Tigers haven't missed the
accomplished lefthander. They've
played the Senators four games
and have taken them all. Last
year they had a It's record
against Washington.
Hoeft opposed the Senators
five times last season. won five
and went the distance in each
game. He'll be striving for his
sixth win Of the season tonight
against erratic Camilo Pascual,
among the major league leaders
in strikeouts but often humping
into considerable difficulty be-

Gus in nine of their last IL
games, Detroit has climbed out
of the cellar to park on the
fringe of the first division, one
game back of the Red Sox.
There was hope in the Sena-
TORS camp, after Bob WieSler,
Hal GriggS and Chuck Stobbs
gave them complete winning
games in the span of a week,
that their pitching was straight
ening out. 1t may have been
misleading, for in their last two
games they've been hammered
for "a hits and IA runs but sup
piled enough hitting to win one.
The White Sox dubbed Dean
Stone for five singles and a 80
lead to start the game yesterday.
The Senators surged back to a
l5-4 lead but again it was a case
OF pitching betraying them.
Chakales Walks Pair
The usually reliable Bob Chak-
Iales set the tying run in motion
in the eighth by walking Sher-
man Lollar and Walt Dropo.
Pedro Ramos arrived on the
scene and the White Sox got a
run across when Luis Aparicio
sacrificed and Jim Rivera, bat
ting for Jim Wilson, hit a sacri-
flee fly to Jim Lemon in left.
Nellie Fox and Dave Philley
wrapped it up for the White
Sox in the ninth. Fox opened
with a triple off the rightfield
fence and Minnie Minoso brought
him home with a fly to Karl Oh
son in right. Philley then tripled
to center and Larry Dolby got
him across with another sacri-
flee fly to Olson.
Stone, who three times this
season has been smashed for
three runs in the first inning,
was in trouble at the outset when

CHRISTMAS SEAL
CAMPAIGN TO AID
TB FIGHT IS ON


Greensboro.-The 1866 Christ
mas Seal campaign to raise funds
for the continuing fight against
tuberculosis began October Is, the
50th anniversary first Seal Sale in
1907.
Spencer Love, State Chairman
of the Christmas Seal drive and
chairman of the board of Buriing-
ton Industries, said funds are ur-
gently needed to maintain and in
crease the many services directed
toward detection of TB cases, and
to provide patient services.
He said the fight against TB
continues to gain ground, and that
progress made has been shared by
everyone.
"Sinee the first Christmas Seal
was sold so years ago, progress
made possible by dollars has
meant saving of more than seven
million lives" he said. "Unfortu-
nately, progress in preventing TB
from happening TO people has been
relatively slight thus far"
He said that cases are not being
found early enough to prevent the
spread Of TB from person to per-
son. He urged all North CaroIin-
ians to bury the Christmas Seals
they receive by mail as a means
Of continuing the attack on TB
until it ceases to be a threat to
the lives and homes of every
American"
Mr.. Love stressed the import
ance of everyone over fifteen get
ting a chest X-ray once a year as
an aid in discovering TB earlier,
and of giving children a tubercu-
lin test. "These screening techni-
ques are necessary preventative
measures, vital to an effective
program of TB CONTROL" he added.
TB associations promote case
finding, health education, patient
service, and research programs.
The textile executive warned
that 1--WE cannot afford to let up
in our efforts to defeat TB COM
pletely. In North Carolina alone,
2,446 people were admitted to our
State Sanatoriums last year, while
new case developed every Az
hours for a total of 1850 new
cases. There were 258 deaths from
TB in North Carolina last year.
He pointed out that TB is pre-
ventable, and that lives are being
saved today that could not have
been saved before drugs entered
the treatment picture ten years
ago.

FEED MORE GRAIN TO HIGH
PRODUCERS SAYS HYATT

"It pays to feed grain to dairy
cows" says George Hyatt, Jr.,
specialist in charge of dairy ex-
tension at North Carolina State
College. "This is especially true
for the high producing ones," he
adds, "for these cows just can't eat
enough high-quality silage and hay
to supply their needs"
Attention to grain feeding is es-
pecially important now, says Hy-
att, as this is the time of year
many dairymen have cows freshen.
Milk is in great demand, making
large supplies necessary. These
fresh cows need lots of feed to
keep them in high production, he
warns.
Admittedly, says Hyatt, the
cheapest source of feed is plenty
of high quality, home grown hay
and silage. These high producing
cows will eat 80 to 100 pounds of
silage day when little hay is fed.
Hyatt points out that even when
10 to Is pounds of hay is fed
daily, they will still consume 40 to
60 pounds of silage.
Even with these large amounts
of roughage being consumed, cows
producing upwards of 80 pounds
of milk daily need plenty of grain
too, if they are going to keep up
production and not lose weight.
Loss of body weight, he warns, will
soon mean lowered production.
Grain is. essential to supply ener-
gy badly needed tor milk produc-
ton and body maintenance.
Hyatt says some dairymen feel
that feeding grain to dairy cows
is dangerous. They talk about
burning out their cows. This isn't
likely to happen, he says, for gen
orally it's Hollow Belly that ruins
most cows.
According to Hyatt, many heavy
producing cows need IL to Is
pounds of grain daily, and in some
cases even more should be fed to
meet their needs. The grain need
not be anything fancy. Hyatt says
a simple mixture of home grown
grains such as corn or barley or
milo and oats with a protein sup
plement such as soybean or cotton
seed meal with minerals and salt
will supply the badly needed ener-
gy and protein.
