Settlement Houses
Must Help Cities

Lorain, Ohio CAMP - Settle
ment houses have a vital and uni
que role to play in checking the
decay of our so-called elmer cit
les" P. l. Prattis told members
of the Neighborhood House as
ISOLATION at their annual dinner
meeting Thursday night.
Prattis is editor Of the Pitts
burgh Courier, and vice-president,
National Federation of Settlements
and Neighborhood Conters.
Middle income and lower mid
die families" he said, ARE leaving
the central city and fleeing to the
suburbs. The central city is thus
left without leadership and with
out the economic stability it re-
quires."
The low income neighborhood
is the natural habitat of the settle
ment house" he said. TT is now
challenged to move away from its
static program of arts and crafts
and games, and to go out into the
neighborhood to develop a new
leadership, stabilize family life and
create a solid economy.
"A new kind of neighborhood
pride must be inspired" he urged
When the people who make up a
city begin to feel that their neigh
borhood is good to live in, good
to work in and good to grow in,
the process of deterioration will be
reversed and our good city will be
city of good neighborhoods."

at Cape Town, South Africa, de

Tan Players
Figure In Maior
League Trades

Chicago (ANP) With the
major league baseball season near,
ing the all-star game break, it's
a good time to analyze some Of the
trades this season involving tar
players.
There were perhaps more chang
es Of scenery for tan players this
year than at any time since Jackie
Robinson entered the majors in
1947.
Perhaps the most controversial
was that involving Hector Lopez,
who was dealt to the New York
Yankees by the Kansas City Ath-
letics. The trade set up a howl
among some Of the other AL own
ers. The swap included five play
ers, three going from the Yanks
to the Athletics. A pitcher was
sent along with Lopez to New
York.
With about a month to go on,
the Yanks seemed to have scored
again, on the basis Of Lopez per-
Torrance. The third baseman from
Panama has been sparkling the
Yanks extensively.
Lopez Sparks YanI1s
When he arrived, the club was
languishing in the basement Of the
AL for the first time-that late in
the season - since 1910. Hector
went on a batting spree that raised
his average from .2s1 (which he
compiled at Kansas City, to $40.
Actually in the first two weeks
with Casey Stengers team, Lopez
was batting .375.
More important, he was driving
in key runs. His offense won at
least three games and contributed
vitality to others.
Significantly, when he slumped
for a weekend series, the Yankees
dropped three out of four to the
Detroit Tigers.
Another big trade-this one in
the off season-sent Sam Jones to
the San Francisco Giants and Bill
White to the st. Louis Cardinals.
This is the kind of trade that each
team got what it went after.
Jones has bolstered the sagging
pitching fortunes of the Giants,
although he has not been as spec
tacular as Manager Bill Rigney
had hoped. The hardthrowing
Highlander, however, has won sew
en- out of his first IS decisions and
with better support from team
mates, might have won at least
two more.

Gomez To Pills

White has been one Of the hit
ting surprises of the season. Bill
came into the majors with the
Giants in 1856. He was called into
service the following season, but
in his brief stay, he showed power
With Orlando Cepeda to handle
first base, White was not needed
by the Giants. st. Louis wanted
him for his hitting, particularly
power-hitting. With the Cardinals
this season, after a slow start,
White has been hitting so consis-
tently that he is among the Ma
tional leagues leading hitters.
The Philadelphia Phillies acquire
Ruben Gomez and Valmy Thomas,
tan battery, from the Giants in
another off-season trade. Gomez
hasn't been particularly brilliant
on the mound this season, winning
only one game. Thomas is seeing
much service behind the bat, how
ever.
Sox Reclaim Dolby
Perhaps the most disappointing
deal involved Larry Dolby. He was
traded by the Indians to the De-
troit Tigers for another outfilder,
Tito Francona. Larry had the mis-
fortune of making a crucial error
in his opening regular season ap-
pearance with the Tigers-but it
was his lack of punch that hurt.
He was finally sold to the White
Sox for about $4,000.
Bill Veeck, who brought Dolby
into the AL when he was owner
Of Cleveland, was the man who
urged Al Lopez to acquire Larry
this time. Dolby has been seeing
more or less regular action with
Chicago, where he previously play
ed two seasons. However, he hasn't
been able to deliver the long ball.
Another trade engineered by
Veeck brought Harry Simpson to
the White Sox in exchange for Ray
Boone. Simpson has been used
mainly as a pinch-hitter and has
helped put a couple Of games in
the win column for the Sox.
George Crow, who went to the
Cardinals from the Cincinnati Red
legs, contributed some timely hit
ting for st. Louis in early season
multiple-player deal between the
games.
Jim Pendleton, involved in the
Redlegs and the Pittsburgh Pr
ates, has served as a pinchhitter
and utility performer for Cincin-
natl without conspicuous success.
Other minor trades since the
season began included Lennie
Green, from Baltimore to Wash
ington; and Solly Drake, Los An
geles to Philadelphia.

Candy Balderston, vice chair
man Of the Federal Reserve

Industrial prices have risen
sooner and faster than in the
two previous recessions" Of

unused capacity Of human re-
sources and manufacturing
plants" 1t will be extraordi-
nary indeed II current price

If steel prices are raised this
summer there undoubtedly will
be a rash Of price boosts on a
long list Of goods we buy.
Many Items Rising
Many little" items are
heading up. Again as an illus
tration, in response to zoom-

turers have raised prices on
their fall lines as much as 10

Equally important is the fact
