Navy Photograph RAIN HOLDS UP BASEBALL GAME RED RAIDERS WERE LEADING OVER TROJANS WHEN GAME ENDED By RABID FANSTER In a game halted by rain yester- day after four innings of play, the Red Raiders were beating the Trojans 5-0. The game was call- ed at the end of the fourth with the Raiders at bat. This was the first game of a se-} but it was not an official game as five innings were not played. Therefore, this postponed game will be played at a later date. Raiders got into Bubber Sweet- for five runs with as many hits. D. Lastres was safe on an error, and he scored when Jim Albury} lined one into centerfield. Then Mario Hernandez rifled one through the box, scoring Albury, and Hernandez taking third on the throw home. Joe Mira then hit a short fly to left which the left- fielder could not get in time and; it fell for a single. DeWitt Rob-| erts, Raider catcher, beat out a slow roller towards third. Then, with men on second and third,| “Crip” Lastres lashed a Texas! leaguer into short rightfield, scor-| ing Mira and Roberts. Most of the credit goes to.Dave Lynch, southpaw pitcher of the| Raiders, who held the Trojans) hitless for four innings, retiring 12 men in order and not letting a ball be hit into the outfield. He walked none and struck out four. Lynch, curveball artist, had his hook working with perfect con-| trol. Sweeting walked one and struck out two. Next Sunday there will be an-} other engagement between the| Red Raiders and Trojans, so you} fans who could not make it yes- terday due to the rain should make it a point to go see the se- ries of the year! Score: R. H. E. Trojans 000 0O—0 0 2) Raiders 500 x—5 5 0 Sweeting and Rueda, Berg (1); Lynch and Roberts. Bright Outlook In Sugar Production (Florida News Service) jth the current sugar harvest ngw being ahead of schedule, Clarence R. Bitting, president of tHe United States Sugar. Corp.,. tetlay reported a bright outlook for sugar production in the Ever- glades in 1946. i Bitting said recent cold snaps that have penetrated Florida have caused no consequential damage to cane, except to very young; plants, and have proved beneficial in raising the sucrose content of maturing cane. Indications are that the crop will exceed any of the recent war- time harvests, providing enough sugar for a month’s supply for| every person in the nation. Both the labor situation and the condi- tion of the fields are better than they have been for some years. Company plantations and inde- pendent producers are now har- vesting and sending in some fine quality cane for processing, and the sugar holtse, largest in the na- tion, has been exceeding its bud- geted cane. Swiss see wide benefits in An- glo-American loan. U. S. investigators prove Ger-' many started rearming in 1934.

WEEK FOR RESI- DENTS (By Assoctated Press) ALINE, Okla., Jan. 7.—The city council is determined to see that residents of this community have access to motion pictures, When the owner of the only movie house in town quit busi- ness, the council voted to take over and now is booking films for twice a week shows in the community building. THE LOW DOWN HICKORY GROVE I delve into all kinds of stuff. Research is in now you know, with the atom etc., so the times are right up my alley—and I can pry into things and not feel I am nosey. Even if a person should choose to go down on Main Street, as an example, and try to deduct how come Mama and her dress- maker are accenting the positive this season or minimizing the negative—whichever it is—via tricky regalia, it is research. But back to my first idea—I got startled on account of this Mr. Patman from down in old Uncle Nance Garner’s Longhorn country. The gent has a peeve—perma- nent-like—on big chain stores versus little stores. The fellow seems unhappy. He don’t act like most Texans. Now as to my own- self, regarding stores, if I could get something like bacon, for ex- ample, even if I had to grab it \di+ rect off the pig—via no store at all—I would be thankful versus} peeved. But big or little, if a person own- ing a little business can never be anything but a little one-store outfit via law, like Mr. Patman wants if, his future don’t look so hot—and he is behind the 8 ball, enbaum vs. Ed Hyland, Stew] Harris, 11 a.m. Saturday, Jan. 12 Curry Harris, Pop Londeree vs. Lt.
