TWINS NOTES
BY Staff Writer

Twin City baseball fans were
I treated to some rare sights and
some fine games before the Twins
embarked on their current 10
game road trip.
Good hitting and pitching and
some fine fielding by the team
namely zoilo Versailles, Bill Tuttle,
Vic Power, Earl Battey, Bernie
Allen, Bob Allison and Rich Rollins
packed Met stadium to near cap
acity.
They also witnessed two rare
sights - catcher Earl Battey
dropping two foul balls, something
unheard of before, and Vic Power
dropping an easy peg from second
base - Vic couldn't believe it
himself judging from his actions.
He made up for it later by digging
low throw from Rollins out of
the dirt for a successful out.
Bill Tuttle's crucial throw from
centerfield to Earl Battey at home
plate was a beautiful sight to be-
hold-on target with no sign the
ball would lose steam before it
reached Battey. The latter moved
one step - to block off the Balti-
more runner sliding in from third
base.
In the Detroit series Zoilo YER
sales showed his stuff" with
a smart pickoff of Jake Woods.
This play caused considerable COM
ment and the slender infielder re-
ceived rousing ovation for his
smart play. It's worth talking
about a long time.
Detroits Billie Bruton had hit
to Bernie Allen who tossed the
ball to Versailles who stepped on
second base tagging a Tiger run
ner coming from first base. Zoilo
then threw to Rollins at third
base, after realizing he had no
possible double play on Bruton at
first base.
Jake Woods who had gone to
third base on Brutons hit to Allen,
made a wide turn for a home plate
try if Zoilo threw to Power on
first. Realizing the peg was Rollins
on third, Wood dove back to the
third base bag - too late said
the third base umpire.
There were other plays to re-
member, more than space will al
lot us to write about.
Harmon Killebrew and Bob ALI
son showed signs of coming out of
their prolonged hitting slumps dur
ing this home stand Their hitting

being in third place lat this writ
ing) a half-game behind the Los
Angeles Angels.
However from this corner, the
main factor (Which has baseball
experts shaking their heads and
alibing for their early Twins stand
ings predictions) continues to be
the refusal Of the players to give
up until the final out.
We've seen other teams fold
up when they were behind by COM
Portable opponent leads. Any team
playing the Twins has no Conn
Portable" lead even with two outs
in the last inning. The Twins have
won a lot Of ball games after the
seventh and eighth innings.
The whole gang just seem to
visibly dig in" when the chips

portant resource is its young
people, its human resource. If you
have read Percy's column for very
long, you probably share this idea.
You realize that the future of our
country depends on the future of
our young people.
Thanks to the efforts of people
like Percy Villa the majority of
our young people are learning the
values and principles that will en-
able them to deal with the prob
lens and the potential for progress
Of America.
But unfortunately this is not
the whole picture. We cannot over
look the fact that juvenile de-
linquency has become an extremely
serious national problem.
Did you know, for example,
that:
. For the twelfth consecutive
year juvenile delinquency has in
creased over the year before, and
available statistics indicate that
this trend will continue unless
there is remedial action?
. Although the population of
young people has increased by less
than one half since 1913, court
cases and juvenile arrests have
more than doubled?
o In 1860 about half the arrests
reported by the FBI concerning
burglary and larceny involved per-
sons under 10 years old; and al
most two thirds of the arrests for
auto thefts involved juveniles?
President Kennedy has recog-
nized juvenile delinquency as one
of the major problems inherited
by his administration. In his State
of the Union Message in January,
1861, he said:
Organized and juvenile crime
cost the taxpayers millions of dol
lars each year, making it essenti-
al that we have improved enforce
ment and new legislative safe
guards"
A few months later in mes
sage to Congress the President
proposed a bill providing for the
establishment of pilot projects to
experiment, evaluate and demon
strate the various ways and means
of using the national resources to
combat juvenile delinquency.
In April, 1861, the Senate passed
a bill authorizing a 500 million,
four-year program to combat juv-
emile delinquency by establishing
pilot projects and carrying out the
training of personnel to deal with
juvenile delinquents.
And in August of 1861, the
House passed bill to authorize
$40 million annually for three
years for pilot projects to improve
methods for prevention, control
and treatment of juvenile delin-
quency and to establish personnel
training programs.
But before the bill was passed
in the House, my opponent in the
Fifth District Congressional race,
Walter Judd, voted for an unsuc-
cessful amendment that would
have limited the provisions Of the
bill to the Washington, D. c.,
area. In other words, although Mr..
Judd was elected to represent a
metropolitan district, he voted to
prevent his district from benefit
ting from the project.
The Senate later adopted the
House version of the bill and in
September of 1861 the President
signed the Juvenile Delinquency
and Youth Offenses Control Act
of 1861.

Ringing The
BELL
By Jesse Bell

A note on the changing times:
On July %, 1862 baseballs top
brass presented four new Hall of
Famers to a cheering crowd of
more than five thousand folks. In
Quoted into the select group were
Jackie Robinson, Bob Teller, Ed
Roush, and Bill McKechnie.
All four made a great contribu-
ton to the game of baseball, but
the most optimistic would not have
foreseen Jackie Robinson being &C
cepted into the coveted Hall OF
Fame only 10 years after signing
with the Montreal Royals.
Jackie proved that we could
take a step toward true solidarity
and brotherhood between races
Jackie was proof that Negroes had
chance in our national sport. He
was the opening door to better
days.

On Monday, July 80, at Chicago
Wrigley Field the second All-Star
game of the year was played
The finest baseball talent in the
National League competed against
the best in the American League.
Until 1945 organized baseball did
not have one Negro. On several
occasions the National League
fielded seven boys of color and on
these occasions the American
League batter was either Ear
Battey or Leon Wagner.
Baseball is coming close to solv-
ing our social problems, Ameri-
cans take note!

The American League had a
chance Monday to look at Bob
"Hoot" Gibson, the st. Louis Card
inals sharp-shooting, fire balling
right handler. Bob is rated good
chance of becoming the next great
pitcher in the National League.
Manager John Keane, one Of
Bob's biggest boosters insists that
the 26 year old pitcher has the
best arm in the game. Veterans
like Stan Musial and Red Schoend-
lest contend that he throws harder
over a nine-inning stretch than
any pitcher who has come up since
they've been in the league.
Bob had intentions of mixing
basketball and baseball. However
he was ordered to give up bas-
ketball because of the risk of in
jury. The Harlem Globe Trotters
were interested in his service.
"Hoot" is only eight hours
short of a college degree, major
ing in sociology.

On July %, 1862 at Fenway
Park, Floyd Robinson young Chi
cago White Sox outfielder tied the
modern major league record by
cracking out six hits in six con-
secutive times at bat in a nine
inning game. Only one man in
baseball history has ever sur
passed this. Since the modern era
began at the turn of the century,
the 6-for-6 feat in a single game
has been accomplished 80 times.
At the end of the day, Floyd's
average moved up IL points to
.319 for third place in the Amer
lean League. He was also tied with
Leon Wagner of the Angels for
first place in runs batted in with
a total of II. Floyd with all his
skill was not chosen for the ALL
Star squad.
Tommie Davis, % year old Los
Angeles left fielder became the
first Dodger to reach the 100
mark in RIBS since 1856. Duke
Snider accumulated 101 in 1856.

Read The Labels
Before You Buy

There has always been some
confusion about getting just what
you want in pesticides grass seed,
vegetable seed, or preplanted con-
taiLers. Many people just don't
take time to read the label and
find out what they're getting, ac-
cording to Ed Ralph, Sussex As
sociate County Agent
In addition to the confusion
that exists because buyers don't
read the label, there is also the
problem of incomplete labelling.
There are many seed products
which are. not labeled as fully as
they should be.
In the case of lawn seed, for
example, it has been observed
that many lots of seed were not
completely and accurately label
ed. Very few of these samples
were actually suitable for plant
ing a permanent, fine-textured
lawn, and yet that was the pur-
pose for which they were being
sold.
What can you do about this ?
Insist on reading the label on any
seed you buy. Know what you
want, and don't be content with
q substitute.
In buying pesticides, make sure
that you read the label to see if
the product will do the job you
want to do. For instance, a dust
may be an insecticide and cannot
be expected to prevent or control
diseases, but yet home owners are
often disappointed because they
did not read the label.
Precautions are also listed on
pesticide labels, so for the best
results on your farm or in your
garden-read the label, Ralph
said.

FLASHY RADIATOR CAPS
ARE A GLORY OF THE PAST

NEWARK, N. ]. (AP) = T h e
flashy radiator caps that adorned
autos in the good old days are
gone and apparently forgotten,
mourns Sam Alperti, president Of
the New Jersey Region of the An
tique Automobile Club of America
Alperti said that the 1920s and
early 30s were the heyday o f
radiator cap sculpture. Then the
automobile designers decided to
put the radiator cap under the
hood. That was the beginning of
the end.
The flamboyant caps t h e
classic Greek archer who adorned
the Pierce Arrow, the roaring lion
atop the Franklin, the winged wo-
man who enhanced the elegance of
the Rolls Royce, the leaping grey
hound of the Lincoln and the fly
ing lady who whizzed along atop
Cadillac hoods still command
from SIS to $50 from antique car
collectors who need a particular
cap.
