Roy Sievers never. has been

has been involved in a wrangle
with an umpire only once. .

and dove back to the bag.
Charley Berry called Philley

but he walked away"
Most marriages are punctu-
ated with outbursts here and
there but in nine years Roy
has had only one TIL with the
missus. "That time ! just
walked out Of the house. "
Sievers said, because If ! hung

helps to keep him on the tram

those threats to his health.

Hnda. an attractive girl who
was pregnant out of wedlock,
came to Associated Lutheran Wei
fare, a United Good Neighbors
agency, having been referred there
by her physician. Abandoned by
her own parents when she was
very young, she had been brought
up in a lax and haphazard fashion
by her aging grandparents.
From the time she came to Lu-
theran Welfare, Hilda wanted to
place her baby for adoption. She
said that she had chosen a church
agency because she wanted her
child to be in a home with good
religious training, something she
had missed in her own childhood.
