'MACK'S ATHLETICS GO RIGHT TO LEAD, AMERICAN LEAGUE (By The Asaocm&ed Press) Give a Connie Mack and his surprising Philadelphia Athletics. Five straight wins, climaxed by a kayo decision over Bobby Feller, have boosted |the A's into the American League | lead | Picked to scramble in the sec- ond division with the White Sox, | Browns and Senators, the Athletics begin to look like serious contend- ers for a spot among the top | four. ; Its difficult to put a finger on the reason for the A's success. | They are hitting only 246 as a club and the top batter, Pete Bud- er at 346 is spotted eighth in ! the order. 114 pitchers went the route. Still they win. Dick Fowler worked only two- thirds of an inning on relief before yesterday’s 8-5 victory over Cleve- land. Arm trouble handicapped ‘hlm in spring training. Feller was belted out | fourth inning. | George Vico, Detroit's rookie first baseman, and Birdie Tebbets, the | Boston Red 8Sox' catcher who once played for the Tigers, staged an impremptu fight to enliven the vproceedmgs at Fenway Park. Although the Red Sox knocked ‘out Hal Newhouser in the first inning, they lost the game to Detroit, 8-3. At New York Bobby Brown's game-winning homer came with a man on in the eighth for a 6-5 iYaniwe victory over St. Louis. Washingten shut out Chicago for the second night in a row, 5-0. Pittsburgh’s six-game win streak was broken in the National League when the New York Giants thump- ed the Plrates, 9-2. e HITLESS WAKEFIELD NOT ON BLOCY OW DETROIT, May 7.—#— Dick Wakefield, who cost the Detroit Tigers $52,000 in bonus money in 1941 and is hitting an insignifi- cant .074 for them in 1948, may be on the trading block. But the Tigers brarided as “pre- posterous” today any idea that Dick may be sold for a $10,000 waiver price. Wakefield, a former University of Michigan player, currently is riding the bench for the Tigers with two hits in 27 times at bat | this season, hitless in his last 25 times up. FRED R.

This announcement is than general interest, in that it means the Douglas Fire Depart- ment members and other residents of Douglas will have completed a major undertaking started on ap- proximately March 25, when the DVFD contracted to furnish vol- unteer labor to demolish the form- er cannery structure and erect a new building for the canning company in return for a set sum which will be used to further the athletic activities of the commun- ity or for fire department equip- ment. The old buildings have long since been down, and the new building, erected on creosoted pilings, 140 feet by 43 feet, is up with the roof completed this week. Mechanics placed canning equipment, etc., while the building was going up, and have most of the machinery in place. There is still plenty of work to be done finishing the sidewalls, windows and doors, but the main issue of having the building far enough along for canning fish by May 10 has been successfully completed. There were many who stated their opinions on depending on volunteer labor to do a job in such a short space of time. But people of Douglas, like they have always dcne in past years, got be- hind the project whole-heartedly and will benefit in many ways, thanks to the boys in the Douglas Volunteer Fire Department, who now have a substantial landmark of more niversary of the Department. There will be the Annual Spring Dance celebrate. !
