YEAR OF DECISION

IGL1I vi -
THESE ISLANDS, having made an excellent start in the
general direction towards our high goals, ought now to begin
to narrow those goals in terms of time. The basic problems
which confront us are practically always the same, beginning
with water, and running through five or six, to education and
the public welfare. But we must 60 one step further.
THE YEAR JUST entered should be, by any standard OF
measurement, one of the greatest and most significant years
in the history of these Islands. Gains have already been made
in many fields, including education, industry, and the tourist
trade. But that is not enough.
BY THE CLOSE of 1862, we should see the water pro
blem licked, or pretty close to it. No longer should we have
70 imnort water. or to suffer because of lack Of it. With the
recent completion of a salt water conversion plant in St. Tho
mas, and the discovery of an adequate supply in St Croiz, the
future in this regard should be assured.
SUCH MECHANICAL problems as electrical energy for
widespread use, with dependabiity from day to day, should
have been solved by the close Of 1862. Many more miles OF
roads should be completed and improved, the docks and the
airport will have been finished and in operation, and many
more buildings erected, both private and public.
OWEvER HI most difficult of the problems will
concern those things which 60 to improving the individual q.
tizen = education, political maturity, and an improved stand.
ard Of living. These, contrary to the mechanical, cannot be
set down for completion in a definite time. But a start having
been made, progress will follow in logical order.
THE YEAR 1862 is one of decision foruS. ByiS close may
we see for ourselves an elected Governor, a Representative in
Congress, an adequate supply Of potable water, and our pub.
lie utilities put on a highly efficient, ~foo[proof operational
basis. This is certainly not too much to expect. We have a
whole year in which to do it.

In the press box a White Sox scout
wryly remarked, 'Is it possible they put
a little more rabbit into this years ball?
Where does a guy like Hamlin get off,
hitting ball over 400 feet to almost dead
center?"
Listen to the pitchers and they'll tell
you how it is these days in the box, when
the big hitters are teeing off, Just before
he was shipped off to the minors, Joe
McClain was sitting in front Of his locker
and ruefully examing his glove which had
come all undone.
Freddie Baxter, the clubhouse major
domo, took the glove away in order to in
Sert fresh leather laceS in the webbing.
"You know what tore it2" McClain said.
Il wasn't even pitching; I was Shagging
flies. Somebody hit a screamer and I
grabbed for it and the ball went right
through the webbing.
That's in the outfield, mind you. I
can't begin to tell what it's like after you
take your stride off the mound, when
you're less than so feet from the plate,
and one of those muscle guys hits a darter
at you. You just don't have chance the
= HE
IT'S JUST BARELY POSSIBLE that
the All-Star Game on Tuesday is post
poning at least one important change in
personnel in the Senator's front office.
President Pete Quesada, although black of
mood, realizes that now is not the appro-
pirate time to make a newsworthy change
There are the visiting VIPs to enter
tain over the week end, plus the Touchdown
Club luncheon for the All-Stars tomorrow
plus the game itself, and the wake that
will be left. But unless the Senators stage
a remarkable about-face there are bound
to be couple Of higher echelon changes
soon.
I'm damned mad and don't mind
saying So" Quesada said yesterday. "This
whole thing (the clubs performance) is
ridiculous. We haven't made any trades
worthy Of mention and all 1 can think of
to say kindly right now is that the support
of the fans is far better than the perform
ance of our team"
If one had to finger the biggest dis
appointment of the season it probably
would be Bennie Daniels failure to live up
to his preseason rating as the ace of the
pitching staff. Bennie, top winner in 81,
was strong in the opening game, beating
Don Mossi and the Tigers Now he's lost
10 in row and can't seem to get anybody
out.
TITS not my arm, it's my head" Bennie
was saying just before the Senators de-
parted for the Western swing II Just don't
have any confidence. I'd rather pitch with
sore arm than with no confidence"

WK LOSE OR DRAW
Obviously the Rubbit
Is Still in the Ball

WHEN ROGER MARIS and Mickey
Mantle and Orlando Cepeda were hitting
all of those home runs last year the con-
troversy ragged as to whether it was the
needed, Souped-up baseball or the light,
Swishy bats that accounted for such violent
action. So far as we know the controversy
still RACES, as well it may.
The musclemen are beating out home
runs lately at what may be the greatest
mass rate in history, strongly suggesting
that none Of the rabbit has been taken out
of the baseball and that it matters little
whether a strong man has 238 average,
Just as long as he hits for distance when
he hits
Baseball tycoonS have discovered that
the long ball is box office. Never mind the
stolen base, the hit-and-run and other
niceties and refinementS MariS proved
last year-and Mantle, too, until he was
hoSpitalized-that there's no business like
home-run business.
Last Friday night bald-headed man
named Vic Wertz, who is in the twilight of
his career, hit winning home run
off Hoyt Wilhelm This is the best knuckle-
ball pitcher on the premises, maybe the
best Of all time. His catchers use special
mitts IN their attempts to catch or at least
stem the dancing, darting pitch wilhelm
can't go distance but there is no better
short reliever in the business
BUT wERTZ TAPPED HIM for home
run, the first Of the season off Wilhelm.
You have to provide your own power when
Wilhelm is throwing. The only pitch he's
got is that knuckler that is as hard to hit
as wasp with Swizzle stick, and it doesn't
come up fast.
In the same night, Maris and Mantle
were back in business. Against the Mimi
esota Twins in an early Crucial" game
the Yankees won, Us, on the strength of
two home runs apiece by Maris and Mantle.
This gave Mickey four consecutive
home runs. He'd clouted two against Kan
Sas City on his last two trips to the plate
and he belted two more on his first two
times at bat against the Twins.
In the meantime. Maris, saddled with
horrible average, was hitting his goth
and 21st homerS. On the same date in
1861 he had 80 homers, but there's still
time for Rog or some other Slugger to
match or erase that asterisk homer record
: of 81.
AT D. C. STADIUM few days ago Ken
Hamlin struck pitch by Los Angeles
Angel hurler that flew straightaway to
center, or maybe a bit to the right. 1t was
tracked down and caught in a crashing
effort against the chain-link fence some
405 feet from home plate

preserve, Wirtz said the biggest
weakness of the women's tour
is the lack of numbers.
I'VE have only about 80 girls
playing regularly" he said
Nov if three girls can't make
a tournament for some reason,
that's 10 per cent of our field
gone. We'd like to have about
40 girls playing regularly. Ger
tainly not more than So"
To begin with, if more than
so women were playing, the
present purses wouldn't be
enough to. go around. The Kelly
Girl will pay off % pros, leav-
ing eight girls out of the money
4 i y y
Last year they paid off only
18 places" Wirtz said. II fig
ured if we could give 20 money
spots, that would be four more
girls who could make it on the
tour"
So he went to Mickey Wright,
the leading money winner of
1861 and the girl who would be
most affected by a slimming
down of the payoff for higher
finishes. He asked her for her
feelings on adding four money
spots and cutting down Oh
what the higher finisherS
would collect.
The answer he got was es-
pecially gratifying to him, he
said.
"She asked me if I thought
it would help the tour. When
I told her I was sure it would,
she said to go ahead. You know,
this will probably cost her
about $1,000 this year."
But while it might cost her
some money in 1862, Wirtz be-
lieveS that in the long run it
will help fatten her pocketbook
a great deal.

FLINT, Mich, July 7 (AP)
-Sharp-putting Dave Ragan
turned in a five-under-par 81
over the Warwick Hills golf
course today to grab the Flint
Open limelight.
His best competitive round
of the year left him with a 213
total, one stroke off the pace
set by Pete Cooper, Bill Collins
and Tony LENA.
Cooper and LENA, co-leaders
as today'S round began on the
7,280-yard course, saw their
lead nearly disappear as Ragan
had eight one-putt greens and
took only % puts.
Cooper, a 47-year-old veteran
of the pro goh circuit, played
consistent though not Spectac-
ular gold until the final hole
where he took a costly bogey.
His second shot hit a trap and
he came out too strong.
Collins had trap trouble on
three holes on his outgoing
nine but Steadied down to turn
in his third successive sub-par
round-a II. Par is 70.
Cooper finished with an even
par 72, as did LENA.
Jerry Barbar, who started
the day two strokes behind the
leaders. had a 72 to stay in
contention at 214. He gave the
crowd its biggest thrill on the
222-yard 7th hole, where he
knocked in a hole-in-one to
win a new convertible.
He was the second player to
pick up a new car via the ace
route. Fred CButchD Baird won
