Ted Says Old Legs
Bar Chance at 400

BOSTON. Aug. 5 (P.-Tec
Williams, enjoying one of his
greatest seasons with the Red
Sox while approaching his 39tf
birthday. doesn't think he car
hit .400-but don't bet against
it.
The last of the 400 hitters
feeling good and acting al
times with the enthusiasm Of
a rookie. is on a tremendous
batting spree that has boosted
his average As points to .38e
since the All-Star game.
Despite that surge, Williams
thinks his aging legs will pre-
vent him from approaching the
406 mark he reached in 1871
If l had the speed I would
have a chance to do it," Ted
said. You have to have the
legs to beat out a few hits
during the season"
Three Essentials
Williams said a.player needs
three things to hit 400: % He
has to have a good year, 90 he
has to get the breaks and go
he has to have the legs.
I'm having a good year. I'm
getting the breaks, but I don't
have the legs" the big slugger
added.
Williams said he thought he
could hit 400 the second time
in l948-between his bitches
as a Marine flyer in World War
II and the Korean conflict.

Pete Gets Revenge
But Ramos got a measure of
revenge. He socked a three

added another in the same in

Bridges hit a two-run homer

Truman Clevenger reached first

PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN IN THE
EVENTsOF HURRICANE

All property owners and tenants are urged to test
thoroughly all hurricane doors, shutters, and windows.
Every householder should make all possible effort to
secure his own property, not only to save it, but to pre-
vent articles and materials from being blown about by
the wind in such manner as to endanger life and pro-
perty of others. All loose material on premises such as
old lumber. cans, etc, should be secured. All cisterns,
tanks, and other water containers near the sea should
be carefully secured against the entrance of salt spray.
During the hurricane period, all unauthorized persons
must stay off the streets, and are urged to remain in safe
places indoors.
All domestic fires must be put out on the approach of a
hurricane, and kept out until all danger is past.
AS electric power must be kept off during hurricane
to reduce the fire risk, all householders should keep at
hand suitable hurricane lanterns.
All livestock should be released from buildings and pens,
and turned out into fenced enclosures.
The duration # the usual hurricane is some eight or ten
hours. Thus, while there is no necessity for laying in
large stores of provisions and water, all householders
should provide against reasonable requirements while
the hurricane is on. In particular, the churches should
make provisions for serving water to those seeking
shelter.
Should a hurricane center pass over the Island, the first
blow will be succeeded by a flat calm for a half hour to
an hour, after which the wind will again break without
warning and continue to blow, from the opposite dlrec-
ton, for the second half Of the hurricane. It is during
this calm that the greatest caution must be observed in
leaving shelter or opening buildings as there will be no
warning for the second part Of the blow.
After a hurricane warning has been issued, and until
after the situation has definitely cleared, all persons ex-
cept Government officials and those only having urgent
and official business will refrain from attempting to COM
municate with the Harbormaster either by the telephone
or by calling in person at the Harbor Office. The re-
sponsibilities of the Harbormaster during such periods are
such as to require his undivided attention in observing
the progress of the hurricane.
When, in the opinion of appropriate authorities, the
weather has cleared sufficiently to make the opening of
buildings safe, advice of the new situation will be indi-
Gated by the hosting of a signal flag at principal Govern
ment buildings or installations, and by dissemination
through local radio stations.
1t is requested that persons seeking shelter in the
churches or other places of refuge must bring their own
food and beverage needed for the duration of the storm
as no canteen workers will be able to provide food until
after the storm clears.
Rectors of parishes and ministers of the gospel are urged
to have responsible persons stationed at their respective

On the other hand the United States is
actually buffng when il stages a show Of

Syria might involve this country in mill

Therefore, we are at a loss to understand
how much good a war of nerves accom-

that any show Of force in the Middle East
which smacks Of intimidation will only
