SENATORS

Continued From Page C-1
from several young outfielders
in the Yankees chain who are
righthanded hitters.
They are Jack Reed, who
batted 800 with New Orleans:
Kent Hunt, a .282 hitter with
the same club. with 20 home
runs and So runs batted in to
recommend him: Deron john
son. who slammed % homers
and batted in 1903 runs while
batting .260 with Richmond.
and Rod Kanehl, a .295 hitter
at Dallas. All are righthanded
hitters.
The Yankees last week Of
fered Reed and Brickell to the
Senator's for Hyde. but that
proposition was rejected by
Washington.
The second player sought by
the Yankees remains a mys-
terry. but conceivably he could
be either Faye Throneberry or
Jim Delsing. both lefthande1-
hitting outfielders. The YAM
KEGS frequently pluck a player
in a deal for shipment to the
minors. Since both Throne
berry and Delsing have lat
tered pitching in triple-A
ranks, they become candidates
The trade could wind up as
Reed, Kucks and Brickell for
Pascual and Throneberly, a
1913 hitter while with Mn
neapolis last year for a month
but a failure with the Red
Sox and Senator's.
This is conf lecture for Grit
fifth admittedly has been
granted a choice of several
players and may deviate from
that setup after chatting with
Manager Cookie Lavagetto and
checking urges reports.
Kucks has been bothered by
arm trouble since he achieved q
peak season of 1879 in 1856.
He BANKED Brooklyn on three
hits in the decisive game OF
the 1856 World Series, and
that is his lone. series victory
Brickell. 160-pounder who
stands only S foot 51a, batted
.295 with Denver in 1857. He
was retained by the Yankees
for a month last year before
being denoted to the American
Association.
Another Game Cancelled
The Senators were hit by an
other rain-out today. Thell
game with the White Sox went
by the boards. postponing a
test for Pitchers John Romo-
nosky and Russ Kemmerer
Yesterdays game with the
Yankees also was washed out.
Meanwhile. medical reports
flom Washington were heart
ening. DR.. George Resta. team
physician, ordered Outf1eldel
Able Pearson and Shortstor
Ron Sanford to return to the
Senators farming base at Or
lando and to resume workouts
DR.. Resta'S examinations
showed that Pearson has a
slight hernia and that Sam
ford has an inflamed muscle in
his arm. The physician feels
exercise will benefit both and
has advised them to get back
to work.

Save Steps And
Live A Longer Life

TORONTO (P)-Save steps and
live longer, is the advice of DR..
John Armstrong, medical director
of the Heart Foundation of Canada.
This can be applied directly to
housewives, who often waste steps
beating a path back and forth ac-
ross their kitchens.
mot only by saving steps, but
by using slightly different meth
ods, you can accomplish the same
amount of work with less energy,
and be less tired" he says.
In 194S, a"heart" a kitchen was
constructed by the New York
Heart Association committee on
cardiovascular diseases in industry.
DR.. Lillian Gilbreth of Cheaper
BY the Dozen" fame, headed the
committee.
Methods applied in industry are
equally helpful in housework AL
though the booklet was written
primarily for women with heart
disease, it has suggestions for
every busy housewife who would
like to enjoy extra time and ex-
ira energy.
Some of them:
Pre-positioning equipment and
supplies can save hundreds of
steps. Store articles where they are
most often used and group things
that are used together near work
area.
Seasoning, canned goods, serv-
ing dishes and platters should all
be stored near the stove where
they are to be used
Soaps, knives and strainers and
vegetables that don't need refrig-
Grafton should be kept near the
sink where they are first used.
Baking ingredients are natural
companions for rolling pins, meas
uring cups, mixing bowls and bak-
ing pans.
If lunches are to be prepared,
assemble the wax paper, bread
and other necessities near the per-
ishable foods used in the lunch.
To save stair climbing, store
small things in box or basket
along with the broom and mop.

Harvey S. Smith l.
Given New Honor
(continued from page onel

In his new position he will not
only serve the area designated but
will be an official of the Federal
Liaison Committee on a national
basis in the relations that this
Committee has with the Federal
Trades Commission and with the
Subcommittee of the United States
Senate headed by Senator Joseph
O'Mahoney which is now studying
the business of insurance as well
as the insurance department oper-
ations throughout the country. Be-
cause of the Delaware Commits
sioner's close proximity to Wash
ington and because of the distant
location of the Chairman, who is
the Insurance Commissioner of
California, it is very likely that
Commissioner Smith will be ex-
pected to assume greater respon-
sibility than is the usual case with
the Vice Chairman of the Com
mittee. BY virtue of the fact that
he has also been reappointed to
the national committee for the
Preservation of State Regulation
and because of the close relation
ship of this Committee with the
Federal Liaison Committee, there
is an indication that the Delaware
Insurance Supervisor will have a
very busy year.
Commissioner Smith, because of
his keen interest and energetic
activity on the subject of Federal
versus State Regulation of the
business of insurance, has been
recognized in other ways. Most re-
Gently, he was featured in a ma
tional insurance publication, THE
United States Review, for his out
standing efforts on behalf of State
Regulation. He was featured in an
editorial for a speech that he had
made on this subject before the
Delaware Association of Insurance
Agents at their annual convention
and, in addition to that, his entire
speech was printed in another Sec
ton OF this insurance weekly.

later the same year, Elijah Freeny
and Wilder Hastings, who owned
most of the area, laid out town.
A name was created from the COM
bining of the first three letters of
the words Delaware and Maryland,
and the main business thoroughfare,
State Street, was laid out along the
state line, dividing the new town
between two states.
According to Scarf's History of
Delaware, Delmar had about $50
residents in 1888. The needs of
these people, according to Scarf's,
were taken care of by six general
stores, two drug stores, a millinery
shop, two mills, two butcher shops,
two wheelwright and blacksmith
shops, a hotel, post Office, several
boarding houses and a two-story
school building.
When the New York, Philadelphia
and Norfolk Railroad extended
rails southwark from Delmar to
Cape Charles, Virginia, DeImar be-
came increasingly important as
the site of railroad shops and as a
shipping point.
In 1918 the entire rail line from
Wilmington to Cape Charles was
taken over by the Pennsylvania
Railroad as it's Delmarva Division
and "Delmar" became a byword
with railroaders from New York
to Norfolk Many railroaders sett-
led in Delmar after retirement and
the community continued to grow
and prosper.
The advent of good highways and
increased use of cars and trucks
spelled the demise of many rail
road communities" and, while Del
mar unquestionably felt the effect
of the fall off in rail traffic, the
community adjusted itself, develop
ed local industry and survived. In
recent years, growth has been slow
but consistent, and, today, approx
imately $500 people call the bor-
der-straddling town home.

since 1850, school systems and var
ious municipal facilities and SER
vices have been coordinated to
serve all parts of the area.
Excellent highways, including
the old u. S. 13 (now U. S. 13a),
the dualized DUPONT Parkway (U.
S. 49, and Md. Route 467,, make
Delmar accessible from every side.
Within easy driving distance from
Delmar are Trappe Pond State
Park and any number of state
stocked ponds that offer excellent
fishing. Good roads lead northeast

in Glass C ball, he went into the
Army for two years. He came out
and got a break by playing winter
ball in Columbia, South America.
Then he made the Baltimore ORR
oles as a rookie in 1856 and mar
ried at the end of the season.
But since then, Tito has been a
victim of two-platoon baseball. Un-
til this year he had hit only ESQ
for 322 big league games. Within
a space of nine months he had
played for three teams.

But Tito had a hot streak after
he replaced Jimmy Piersall. For
his first So games he was hitting
.407 and had accounted for about
10 Cleveland victories with his bat.

in 81 games for the Orioles that
year and was traded to Chicago.
He couldn't get going for the White
Sox and on June Is, 1858 was trad
