Senators Hopes Rise
As Aspromonte Clicks

shaw as the Senators seek the
rubber game Of the series in
the Ladies Day fuss. Tomorrow
night the Senators shift TO
New York for the opener Of an
eagerly anticipated four-game
series with the Yankees.
Skilled on Double Plays
Aspromonte was complaining
prior to last nights contests
that he was "fouled up" at the
plate. He unsnarled himself
quickly with a rash of hits and
he showed Lavagetto skilled
execution of double plays in CO.
operation with Shortstop Rocky
Bridges.
Providing a lift for Cookie
was the Senator's hitting. II v
accumulated 13 hits in the
opener but wasted all but Ed
Yost's homer in the ninth as
they left IA stranded against
Frank Larry. In the second
game they we're more produce
tive with Is hits.
Cookie got his kicks from
the pitching of Hal Griggs. The
chesty righthander possessed
a three-hitter until the ninth
inning. when the Tigers clipped
him for four hits and three Of
their runs. Hal famed seven
in notching his first win.
Reno Bertoia virtually erased
the Senators from the first
game before the 2,615 chilled
fans had snuggled into their
blankets. He crashed grand
slam homer, first of his major
league career, against Camilo
Pascual to feature a five-run
first inning.
1t mattered little that Pas
cual braced to blank Detroit
for the next five innings and
that Chuck Stobbs and Russ
Kemmerer also checked them.
for the Senators permitted nu-
merous scoring opportunities to
vanish. They had at least two
runners on base in seven in
nings against Larry but didn't
score until Yost opened the
bottom of the ninth with a
homer into the leftf1eld bull
pen.
Pascual's downfall came with
startling suddennesS. He re-
tired the first two Tigers, then
walked Harvey Kuenn. Char
ley Maxwell and Gail Harris
singled to score a run before
AL Kaline walked to fill the
bases. Bertoia pumped his
homer into the centerfleld
seats, and the rest of that game
was for exercise.
1t was different in the Sec
ond game as the Senators re-
bounded to stay within one
game of the front-running
Yankees. They chased Jim
Bunning when Aspromonte
singled in two runs in the Sec
ond inning. They picked up a
run off Joe Presko in the third
when Clint Courtney doubled
and Jim Lemon tripled. then
Isplurged for five runs against
Tom Morgan in the fifth.

next Thursday to get down to
the 25-man limit.
Nobody knows for sure who
is going. The guessing among
men closest to the club all
season is that Fritz Brickell, a
reserve inflelder, may be farmed
out and Al Cicotte, a pitcher
who hasn't seen action, may be
traded or sold.
Either AZ year old Enos
Slaughter or Mary Throneber-
~, rookie first baseman. could
be the other to go. Slaughter
has been at bat only two times
and Throneberry only three

Florida with a well-rounded

Tom Sturdivant hasn't pitch

hasn't thrown a ball.
However, the long layoff has
brought Stengel's cripples

Larry c. Ellery, Jr., of John
Bassett Moore High School of
Smyrna, has been commended by

who received the commentator
rank in the top one or two per
cent in ability in the senior class
es of their respective states.
while the students receiving
this commentator did not quite
reach the finals of the 1888
competition, each of them has
demonstrated highly superior abil-
ity and outstanding promise to
benefit from college training" de-
clared Mr.. Stalnaker
"I hope that every one of them
will make a special effort to OBJ
tain the best college education
possible. Our country needs more
able people like these"

Scholarship competition offers the
largest system of privately financ-
ed scholarships in the United

Land development in Alaska has been so slow and bound up in red tape, st has stifled the growth of many Alaskan communities. Any one who has sought land for cat tie raising or other purposes has had more hurdles to jump than a racehorse, and if not discouraged before they start, they are never satisfied It is stifling procedure.
 Land development is an impor- tant phase of the development of Alaska. This applies to industrial as we'll as agricultural progress.
 -e people have to own more land. How to get the land into the hands og tie people, with less red tape, is the ansWef-
 Milton H. LichtenWalner, Dem ocratic candidate for the House of Representatives, called for a Ter ritorial land reform program to assist people to get title to land near the smaller communities of the Third Judicial Division. Lich- tenWalner in recent speech at Soldotna, ccntrasted the situation in the States where people have title to about eight acres of land per person. while in Alaska the privately owned land amounts to only about two and three quarter acres per person. This tiny land base has stified the growth of the towns, he said, and made them de pendent on other resources than land for living.
 LichtenWalner's program calls for selection from Federal land grants to Alaska by the Territor- ial Department of Lands enough land near each of the smaller com lnunities in the Third Division Sd that the ratio of private and Terri torial land wll be twenty acres per person. This, he said, would ex pand the total land base by about
