NEW YORK, April 27—®—In training camps that some Major League baseball clubs put on for their minor affiliates, some smart baseball men deep in the bushes aren't too happy aktout 1948 pros- pects—listen—from one anonymous gent. who knows his way around the minors: “I'm afraid most of us over- stimated the players who would be developed in the armed forces. With so many leagues going, some of the class D's will have to employ pretty raw talent.” Benn Hogan declares that the toughest part of the winter golt tour is adjusting your game to the various different types of grasses on the putting greens—"you wind, up S0 jittery you lose touch, confidence and ambition,” says Ben. The Chicago Coleens, a new club in the All-American Girls Baseball League, looked so nifty in their all- white uniforms at spring training camp in Opa Locka, Fla., that man- agers of the other nine teams de- manded that similar white costumes be bought. Seems that girls will be where clothes are concerned.

WARNING WASHINGTON, April 27.—#— The Foocd and Drug Administra- tion has issued a nationwide warn- ing against use of a particular *‘contaminated” brand of an-injec- tion drug, and said a countrywide BALL search for missing bottles is un-! " derway. The material is called “Code No. C M 8164 of 5 percent Glucose in Normal Saline” and is manufact- ured by Cutter Laboratories, Berk- eley, Calif. “This product is contaminated and may cause injury,” the admin- istration said. The Food and Drug Administra- tion said “several hundred” bottles out of 2952 had not been ac- counted for. —_—————— WASHINGTON — The Air Force announces it is' expanding its search and rescue operations, now confined to tre U. S. and Alaska, to include the Middle East. One unit will be established at Dhahran in Saudi Arabla May 1, and one at Tripoli, |Ldbye, on Mey 46.. . spirit of your town and what I saw |tertront . . . its' complaint on a magazine article, concerning Juneau, written by George Frank, which was the object of considerable controversy when published by the Alaska Develop- ment Board. Frank, at the request of the Board and the Chamber has re-written his article which will be included in the revised publication to be releas- ed by the Board. | He now says: Juneau is the capital of Alaska.| Its prosperity lies mainly in the fact | that it is the seat of the Govern- ment, a prospective and mighty good customer. Juneau and its environs sre inhakited by some 8,000 people. The town can boast a fine saw- ill, among the largest in Alaska, and a large cold storaze plant, as- suring stezdy in-ome to many peoplc eager to patronize local industry Watercraft of the town are already serviced by one large and several e£mall companies, but could use still more skilled hands. Almost nobody visits Alaska with- out stopping at Juneau, where sou- venirs and novelties could be made and <old on a fairly large scale. Any- cne attracted by Alaska should in- vestigate further the possikilities of this busy town, where, incidentally, electric power is relatively abund- ant, Frank apologized for his error and! said that his only slip during his entire study of Alaska was in refer~ ence to Juneau. He explained that he did not meet any local boosters in Juneau although he was enter- tained and furnished with informa- tion in every other Alaskan city. 8zid PFrank: “Nobody was trying to impress me with the progressive there was not too heartening a spec- tacle: the famous gold mine rusting away. . . . the sawmill almost idle. . . mot much activity on the wa= and, all the people| fighting each other, the Government and everybody else” He also declar- ed that his own views had opposed those "of George Sundborg, ADB Consultant. The Juneau Chamber wrote to Sundtorg thanking him for holding up further publication of the article until the correction could be made. It also thanked Frank for his views. Said the Chamber: Pirst let us say that we regret the publicity given this matter. Our let- ter of protest was read to the Cham-| ber only as a matter of procedure, and to obtain for the Executive Board the approval of the Chamber in a matter of policy. Our only aim was to secure a proper representa- tion of the facts concerning the in- dustrial possibilities of our-city. | . For You!
