Central Point was consider ably affected by the soft field Manager Bill Askwith said, but managed to hold the powerful Navy nine to eight hits while collecting five themselves, going into the eighth frame. Five Cen tral Point errors came at critical times and were costly to the Studders. Ashland, newest entrant into the loop, showed lack of practice and experience in losing to the improved Butte Falls unit. The Loggers blasted two Ashland hurlers for 18 hits and were aided by six Lithlan errors. Thomas, Butte Falls catcher, got a home run, the only circuit clout of the day. Webster, Log ger pitcher, hit safely four times out of five trips to the plate. Ashland batting honors went to Jones, second baseman and pitcher, with four hits out of six tries and to Larson, catcher, who hit two for three. i Medford collected eight hits off two Gold Hill chuckers in gain ing the victory while three Med ford hurlers were touched for five blows. George Barr started on the mound for Medford and gave up three hits and allowed one run before he was relieved at end of the fifth inning. John Reedy ,took over Barr's duties and gave up two hits and one run in three innings. Red Davis, working the final frame, allowed two Gold Hill men to reach base but failed to allow a hit or run. The Craters' heaviest hitter of the day was Reedy who gathered three blows out of five times up.

They'll long remember this year of our 100th birthday To more than a million and a half young couples, 194S will be warmly remembered as "the year we were married." It takes, perhaps, a littlo more courage and faith than usual to atari married Ufa in this eventfid year. But American families have al ways cvitlenced ample reserves of courage and faith. And we like to feci that during its 100 years, the New York Life Insurance Company has contributed to the courage and faith of many of those families by helping them to provide for their security. In the years ahead. New York Life's 100 year of experience and stability will continue to help build a better future for many of this year's new American families . . and for many more families to come.

FOR ATTACK ON New York, June II (U.R) Stormy Leo Durocher's Immedi ate - future as manager of the Dodgers rested today upon the reactiqn of (1) the King's County Felony Court, (2) Dodger Boss Branch Rickey, and (3) the Brooklyn fans to his alleged at tack upon a grandstand critic, Saturday night. Durocher denied that he and Special P o 1 i c e m a n Joseph Moore, attacked the fan, ex-soldier John Christian,, 21. Duro cher Is to be arraigned today In Brooklyn Felony Court. Jaw Broken Christian, who suffered a broken jaw, black eye, and cuts and bruises on his head and face, is in Kings County Hospi tal. He identified Durocher and Moore as his assailants shortly before yesterday's double header with Philadelphia. Both were taken to a police station and held on charges of fclonius assault until they obtained $1000 bail. Christian, 21 - year old ex Brooklyn all-scholastic football star, said he went to the game against the Phillies Saturday night and sat in the upper grand stand behind the home team dugout near third base. Heckled Durocher He said he heckled Durocher through most of the game, call ing him a "bum" and a "crook" and accusing him of "trying to steal the ball game." He said his remarks were no more vocifer ous or pointed than those of other fans. After the seventh Inning, he said, Moore came to his seat and said. "You're wanted in the of fice." The 200-pound, six-foot Chris tian said he refused to go and that Moore then dragged him down the. steps. Durocher was waiting under the grandstand, he said According to Christian, Moore struck him with a blunt instru ment and Durocher grabbed the I want RUSKETS for Breakfast!

They rttlly tl illy me -and they taste swell, too' Met. fconomy Package) at your grocers By Roger W. Babion Babson Park, Mass., June 8. (Special Correspondence.) May I start by calling attention to the definite statements made in my Annual Forecast of Decem ber 28, 1944 in which I said: "The greater part of Ger many's army will collapse before the German planting season opens in the spring of 194S. "Japan will nob hold out so long as most people think. Japan will collapse within six or twelve months after Germany collapses. "If Stalin's health continues, he will be the world's most pow erful man in 1945 and may dic tate the peace terms, especially for the Pacific." i Few Optimistic At Clot of Last Year I am especially proud of the above forecast in view of the conditions under which it was written. Readers will remember that last summer the public were very hopeful and looked for the collapse of Germany at any time; but I said that there would be no collapse in 1944. Then the Germans started their famous bulge in the middle of December and Washington was very much disturbed In fact, a study of newspaper clippings "will show that I was almost the only col umnist who was optimistic at the close of last year. But I knew the German temperament. I have been In Japan since Germany declared war upon us and still have an agent in Shang hai. I, further, have always been interested in American missions in both Japan and China. I, however, am basing my present forecast upon something else which may seem very unimport ant to many readers. I refer to the fact that my personal house servant is Japanese, born near Tokyo. He has lived with us day-and-nlghf for twenty years and was preceded by a cousin who was with us for seven years. Hence, I know the Japanese tem perament. Moat Japanese Have - Human Characteristic . It Is true that certain Japanese who descended from a famous old Prince have the "hari kiri" religion. These few will commit suicide rather than surrender. They now serve as human bombs. They, however, make up but a small portion of the Jap anese people who, as a wholb, are human like ourselves actu ated by the same motives. A Jap anese soldier will ( live on very little food. This he can carry on his back. They are tough physi cal specimens.' Hence, it costs the Japanese only 20 to sup port their army of what it costs us to support an American army. But what of this? Japan has less than 20 of our resources. Japanese soldiers will fearless ly obey orders and follow a blue print; but when something which they have not planned for happens, they are lost. As a na tion, they are wonderful copy ists, but they lack originality. They had every movement of this war planned and charted before Pearl Harbor. Everything went according to plan in con nection with Thailand, Indo China, Burma, the Dutch East Indies and the Philippines. Then something happened to their blueprint! During the past year their plans have been of no use and they have suffered accordingly In my own household, I can give a wonderful banquet for twenty people if I give my Jap a week bludgeon and hit him some more. After that he said Durocher hit him on the law "with a left hook." 5 More SHOPPING DAYS BEFORE Don't Forget Dad!

Global War Will End Before Most Expect All the above means that the global war will be over before most people expect it. It will be over before all the boys in Eur ope have a chance to get to the Pacific. Except in special depart ments, the casualties will be light. Most of the boys may be home before Christmas. The above means that re-con version will steadily continue tnroughout the year and some time during next year we will be going full-blast on consumer production. A few excellent years of business with higher stock prices should follow. Fur thermore, if we play fair with Russia, Joseph Stalin should be one of our best friends so long as he lives. Upon his death, it is very possible that Russia will be split up or suffer civil revolu tion Then she surely need not be a menace to the British Em pire, to China or to ourselves. DOUBLE HEADER TO LOWES By United Press The Pacific Coast league base ball race leveled off over the week-end and hopes sprung anew in the also-rans as the Portland Beavers dropped a Sunday twin bill and the second place Seattle Rainiers won a pair to climb within two and one-half games of the paceset ters. The league tightened up from top to bottom, with the generally trampled Hollywood Stars tak ing a pair from San Diego, 6-3 and 2-0 and winning the series, five, games to two the most decisive week-long record the Stars have been able to catalog this season. The Beavers lost by scores of 6-3 and 3-1 to the Angels but won the series, 4-3; Seattle won from San Francisco, 9-5 and 5-0 to annex the series 4-3; and Sac ramento won both games from Oakland, 11-8 and 9-8 to take a 5-2 engagement.
