Hal Newhouser’s six-hit effort in the finale brought the ace left-hander his eighteenth tri- umph of the year The Senators won their opener from the St. Louis Browns to keep pace with the Tigers, but dropped back when the American League champions, behind Bob Muncrief, annexed the second contest. The Chicago Cubs stretched their first place National League lead to 6'%4 games via a double win over the lowly Phillies. Andy two-run single in the first inning proved to be the pay-off wallop in the curtain-raiser, while Hank Wyse had an easy time of it re tering his eighteenth triumph the nightcap. After losing second place Brooklyn by virtue of the Dodgers’ opening game victory, the St Cardinals came back to win me one of go from in the second game, 3-0, and regain their | hold on the runner-up position. Manager Mel Ott provided a one- | man show at the Polo Grounds, as he personally accounted for both the’ New York Giants’ triumphs v.ef tne Cincinnati ~Reds, with game-winning homers in each con- test. Jesse Flores pitched the Phila- delphia Athletics to a 7-0 win over Chicago to hand the White Sox their first hcme Sunday loss this season, after 17 consecutive cesses.

Beebe. For in appearance, man- |nerism and expression, Captain | Beebe is the very antithesis of the | hard-boiled, hell-raising, rollicking | skipper the movies love to portray | Rather his neatly-trimmed pure- [white hair, mild clear-blue eyes {and conservative bearing give him |all the aspects of the ordinary |business man—the Lewis Stone | type. | This captain, however, is really |a brilliant shipmaster turned war- | time schoolmaster. Fifty-six years old, once rated !by the late Adm. Casey Bruce Morgan as one of our best naviga- tors, he is Uncle Sam’'s ace Mari- | time Service superintendent, en- | trusted with the job of training | thousands of apprentice seamen | for our ever-expanding Merchant Marine. Captain on Loan Oddly enough, Captain Beebe, \Us:\'R, is really on “loan” to the | Maritime Service. Back in August, 1942, the War Shipping Admini- | stration was seeking a man to up the first government-sponsore | Maritime Training station in the | world and went to the Navy for help. “Commander Beebe's your man,” was the answer, and soon the five- foot six-inch three-striper assumed a post at Hoffman Island, N. Y., | such nautical base | had been established. | In the remarkably short space jof five weeks, a smooth, well- coordinated program had been in- tensified. Encouraged, the WSA sent its new nd to Cata- lina Island, Calif,, to duplicate his feats. How was evi well Beebe clicked therc he was sem to the worl station at Sheepshead Bay, N. i then in its infancy.

With the approach of D-Day, Beebe was called upon to round up thousands of mariners to man the ships nec ary to carry the sup- to Normandy. Beebe did not Not bad for a kid who ran away from home at the age of 17 to join the Navy as apprentice sea- man. Today Beebe is one of the very few wearing four stripes, at- taining that rank the hard way. Just why young Beebe should climb out of a bedroom window in Jersey City to enter the Navy re- a mystery for as far back he can recall the Beebes were ys an ocean-going clan. The first Beebe set foot on these shores in 1640 and the seas have claimed them ever since. Beebe's grandfather, Theophilus, d of miles out to £2a in ordf= to greet incoming ships first. An- other member 8f the family was an uncle, Capt. Richard Brown. Captain Brown, one of the na- tion's most distinguished mariners, who commanded the yacht Amer« jca in the 1851 America Cup race, first of the in‘ernational serics. Three uncles and thras cousins a Sandy Hook pilots. ‘When President Theodore Roose- velt sent the Great White Kleet around the world in 1907 to dis- play United States sea power, 17« yecar-old Beebe was one of the sailors aboard. He still recalls the day American warships sailed right into Japan's front door and the Nips grimly came out and matched our battlewagons ton for ton, ship for ship. Beebe realized on that day that the United States could never hope to defeat the Japs without basea and merchant ships that would have to supply the necessary food, ammunition and fuel. That picture is imparted to thousands of sea- men sailing the very lancs he travelled 39 years ago. Knows His Ships Ships and model boats are his life’s work and hobbies, too. By merely glancing at a vessel far out at sea, or by glancing at a couple of masts jutting their way over a dock, the captain can in- stantly tell you its age, history and tonnage. He ought to know, for he has held high posts on some of the world's most famous ships. Today Beebe is far more than a Maritime superintendent. He 13 really moulding the lives of Young America, for fully half of the boys in the Maritime Service intend to remain in the Merchant Marine after the shooting is over. To Beebe VE-Day meant only that a bigger job than ever faced him. Sea routes that lead to vie- tory over the Japs are three times as long as those in the Atlantic. That means three times as many, men to handle the goods. Uncle Sam knows that Becbe will deliver again. 5 The skipper’s basic principles are simple—cleanliness, discipline, training. They say you can eat a meal off one of Beebe's decks, f Atk WANT ADS | 1 \ FOR SALE ONE Elgm blcydo good tires. Phone just 117. set, dutch oven, bedding and other articles.
