PAGE EIGHT MTSPFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, HEDFORD, OREGON, TUESDAY, AUGUST 22, 1933. TOTTERY SEALS FOR WEEK S PLAY (Br th Associated Press.) To the much-beaten Seattl In diana com the task this wwk ol trj lrur to knock the Angel of Los An geles from their perch atop the Coast league. The schedule, which last weak pit- t4 the four leader sgslnst each other, thl week sends the flrat dl vision clubs agalnat the four lower bracket teimi, favoring the Angels. who climbed from fourth to first niece two weeks ago ovsr the Indians. Scuttle's cellar tribe declslonsd the Angels In a home series earlier In the season and last week rallied to beat the Missions. Leading the fast-moving Hollywood Stars by only a game and a half, the seraphs may encounter trouble away from the Wrlgley field Hollywod hasn't such an easy as signment In Its seven games with the rejuvenated Oaks. After slipping to sixth place, Oakland has begun to get winning pltohlng again and Is now firmly entrenched In fifth place San Francisco moves to Portland and Sacramento to San Francisco, for s series with the Missions, to complete the schedule. The Beavers have been Invincible on their home grounda this year, while the Seal have had trouble winning either at home or on the road. Sacramento stands the bsst cbsnce ' of any team in the circuit of Im proving It position this week. After their great early season showing, the Xllsslons collapsed and have not won a aerie In many weeks. Their beat. Jng last week by Seattle augured well for the Senators, who have taken 18 out of 18 games already played with the Reds.

Both balls dropped out of the tree together, the caddie aald. Ex-Boxer, Now Speedballer Headed for Job With Cubs LOS ANOELE5 (AP When the Chicago Cubs get their 1934 shipment of baseball talent from Los Angeles of the Pacific Coast lesgue, the chances are good a 33-year-old right banded pitcher, Richard Ward, will be In the deal. Playing his first full season In the lesgue, ward won 18 of his first 30 gamee for a ,760 average and still Is going strong. Broken bands saved Ward for base ball. Born In Kennebec, s. D. In 1811 Dick moved with his parent to Ev erett, Wssh., at a tender age and started his athletic career In the north country. Ten lights, Ten Wins At the age of fourteen he took up amateur fighting with success. To his credit are ten fights and aa many Victoria. The first nine resulted In knockout. Dick saya aomeone ran In a ringer on him for the tenth. He broke both hands, but won the decision. That was enough of the gentle art of box ing. So he went Into baseball. First he was a cstcher, and from. that point he moved to every posi tion on the nine, finally finding his natural place on the mound. The Angela took him over from the sand lots In 1031 and sent him to Wichita of the Western league. Helped by Uallou Last summer he was recalled, but showed nothing to Impress anyone. He atarted out this spring with a great fast ball but little else. Wynn Ballou, veteran Angel curve ball artist, took Dick under hi wing and howed him how to make 'em break. Ward was a good pupil. His over hand delivery and his speed, coupled with new found hooks, began to get In their work. Night baseball, slow In arriving, didn't come too aoon. His low fast one seems to play hide and aeek in the shadows. HOW THEY STAMP. (By the Associated Press.)

'Hie Climate City outfit has played Independent ball this season and has had a fairly successful season, cross ing bats with some of the best travel ing teams on the coast. Ray Thompson, manager 6f the Gold Hill team, which up to a few Sundays ago, was undefeated this season, haa challenged Manager Hslght of the Rogues for a winner-take-all game, "any time, any place." Thompson declares that Med ford's de feat of his team by lop-sided scores of 14-1 and 20-16, la not a fair indi cation of the Ciold Hill strength, as Medford strengthened their lineup for the frays.

(UP) NRA enthusiasm has sprouted musical wings here In the form of a song, "The Blue Eagle March," written by Walt Burgess, of Darby, Pa. The song has been published by a Philadelphia company, and copies have been sent to President Roose velt by the author. The chorus of Burgess' song Is: " "Our hearts are true, The aky is blue. We praise the Lord that rules on high. Away with fear! Join fh a cheer 1 We see the bluebird In the sky I The Deal Is new. And we must do Our part until the very endl Strike up the band And hand In hand We all can help our President I" (Continued from Page One) proxlmated 100,000,000 and contem plated construction of about 3400 new government buildings. Zckes turned to Budget Director Douglaa and suggested he was pretty good at breaking things down how would he like to take a crack at the. public building projects? Douglas aald he d like nothing bet ter. As a result, Douglaa returned the program classified into five categories. They were: 1. Buildings needed immediately. 3. Buildings needed soon, but not Immediately. 3. Buildings needed soon, but can be delayed. 4. Buildings economically sound, but can be deferred 3 or 4 years. A. Buildings not needed at all. The fifth category carried the ma jority! The board met and considered the situation. Allotments were made for 13 buildings In class 1. They totaled about 96,000,000 with one new struc ture for New York City carrying the bulk. By now you probably will have read elsewhere In your paper of a second allotment also Infinitesimal as com pared with original estimates. Curiously it was former President Hoover who first advanced the convic tion there was little real economic need for new buildings. Budget Director Douglas has been well and favorably mentioned to suc ceed William H. Woodln as secretary of the treasury when the latter re tires because of 111 health. The longer Woodln remains and he wants to get out the less chance Douglas will have of succeeding him. The public buildings situation Is a case In point. Douglas has been the high priest oi economy since March 4. His one job hss been to save money. He has tackled the assignment with the fer vor of a crusader. Unfortunately he has trod oa so many political toes the walls can be heard for mlies around. Reports reach Washington that Americans interests, anticipating pro hibition repeal, are planning to give the famous Baccardl rum people ol Cuba a little competition. Down In the Lake Okechobee re gion of Florida domestic capital is mixing medicine to convert Florida sugar cane Into rum. Native sugar cane stock or bagasse, as It Is called has been used prin cipally In recent years for the menu facture of aynthetlc boarding. Sugar has been a by-product (less than 100.000 tons a year.) The monled gentry probably figure we've had enough of things synthetic and are getting ready to offer the real stuff. It takes real tact and a lot of per suasion to Inveigle men of high stand ing Into accepting the thankless as signments as NRA code advisers for their particular Industries. At least so says Edward R. Stettin nlus, Jr., vice-president of OeneraJ Motors, who Is acting aa lallson offi cer between the National Recovery Administration and the Industrial Ad visory Board. He cites the method of approach re quired to snare Sam Harris to serve for the legitimate theater interests. First Stettlnius got in touch with Irving Berlin and BUI Brady. These two worked on Harris. Then the NRA aide approached the well-known producer. The high command of the forest army Is looking after the welfare ot Its young charges In the matter ot reading material. A circulating library haa been se lected by the welfare department of the Civilian Conservation corps and la now making the rounds of the camps. About 50 books are permanent it) each camp. These have to do with forestry and allied subjects. For the rest, detective, western snd adventure stories predominate. Here and there may be found a romance, but they are few. Ironsides, beloved veteran of the American navy,-left the Stillwater basin at Swan Island airport here to-; day for Kalama and other lower Co- lumbla river points, ending a visit i of 31 days In this harbor. During that period, more than 200.000 per-1 sons crossed her gangplank and many other thousands viewed her from the shoreline. I The old frigate left down river at; 6 a. m. for Kalama where she will be two days before moving on to Long- j view for a five-day visit. After stop- j ping for a short time at Astoria before j passing out of the Columbia, the Constitution will proceed to San Francisco to pay her final call to the bay district. 3 CHILDREN DROWN' ON BEACH HOLIDAY NEWPORT BEACH.
