Dolph Camilli, the Acorns’ manager, was the big gun in Oakland’s victory. The San Francisco Seals clubbed cut a double-header victory over the Sacramento Solons, winning the opener, 9 to 5, and the short night- cap, 12 to 5, to clinch their series, {ive games to two. Portland’s reliable submarine flinger, Ad Liska, defeated Holly- wood in the first game of their double-header, 16 to 1, but the Beavers experimented with the rest of their mound staff in the second contest and dropped it, 10 to 2.

STANDINGS OF THE CLUBS Over Bucs (By Autociated Press) After tying up the game in the last of the ninth inning, the St Louis Cards fell apart on defense in the top of the tenth and the Cincinnati Reas salvaged the second game of their National League double-header, 9 to 7, after losing the opener, 2 to 0.

Paul McNutt, the War Manpower Com- mission chairman, has announced that 25,000 private duty nurses are available for military service. Sure, they're available; but it’s doubtful if theyll all meet age and physical requirements; so a draft of nurses may not get the 20,000 needed by the services. In the meatime, where are the |nurses for V. A, hospitals coming |from? It's going to have to be |from those who don't meet Army |or Navy requirements. And then, after the war, there’s only the hope that many service nurses will trans- fer to the Veterans' Administration. Anyway, if you know just one pri- vate-life nurse, put the squeeze on her to get into the Veterans’ Ad- ministration Service. She'll be car- ng for and helping the same young nan who yesterday was in an Army r Navy hospital. He has a dis- rge, but he’s the same guy.

And then, later, thousands of tons of cattle and poultry feed, made from this same grain, pour out of the distilleries to go back to the farm areas where the grain was grown. Sounds like a complete cycle, doesn’t it? You see, a very large portion of the grain used in making either war alcohol or beverage spirits or * whiskey is “‘recovered”, because only the starch content of the grain is actually used in the distillation process. After the starch has been | taken out, the grain is processed | into just the finest kind of high- | protein feed for dairy cattle, hogs and poultry. | Right now, Schenley is expanding its facilities for grain recovery— installing new equipment at its plants in four states, which will in- crease feed production to approxi- mately two hundred forty-four million pounds, yearly. All of which is important to the farmer, because shortage of feed means shortage in his production of the country’s basic foods: milk, meat, poultry and eggs. And here is something else worth- while remembering: even when the beverage industry is producing alcohol at top capacity for vital war purposes, these alcohol require- ments consume only about 2% of the nation’s grain supply, and about one-third of this grain is subsequently converted into farm feeds.
