'( Dramatizing his words, Rickey said: "Gentlemen.;. At five minutes to eight this morning four men walked through that door. They "were -Leo , Durocher, John Corriden, Clyde Sukeforth and Fred Fitzsim- mons. s MWe sat here an hour and a half trying to an swer that ques tion: What do we think of our ball club? "Well, I think we have a sreat WWtaay Mark team here. I ' think it is a better club than it was Jast fall. I think I have made one mistake from a publicity stand point. That is, I have been , too quick to give credit and praise to the St Louis Cardinals.' .!. ! , , ' -- ' --: "I appreciate ear shertem- Lars. - There is Johnny Ceeney, ifr example.

Rickey replied. -We never get to the pout af saying Whether or net we woald win the pennant However, If I had to express what I believe weald be their opinion, I woald say that It Is that we weald win." . That should be good enough for the Dodger fans. j . - , '. Parole Chief Tells Kiwanis Of lPenal Code Of all the state departments and government branches, none is i httle understood as parole, Fred Finsley, state parole officer, told Salem Kiwanians Tuesday. Parole is "a method to bridge the gap be tween the institution and chaotic conditions of the outside world," Finsley elaborated. While if costs the taxpayer $300 per convict per year to keep him in jail, it costs only. $50 or $60 when he is on parole,, and 85 per cent of those released on parole prove J trustworthy, the speaker pointed out. Under the system. the convict serves part of his sen tence under guidance of state of ficers,; until he has the opportun ity to readjust and rehabilitate himself. The basic problem of prison reform is how the convict comes out, and every "graduate in crime" who is turned into a useful citizen under the guidance of parole officers repays the state a hundred times over for the ef fort expended upon him, Finsley believes. . ' "'. The club set May 11 for Ladies' night and local members will jour ney, to McMinnville on the after noon of April 28 to attend the an nual district spring conference of Kiwanis.
