San Carlos, with three straight defeats, is in the cellar. The veteran Juani Navarro scored the San Carlos club's only | run. He singled to left in the fourth, and. went all the way to! third when J. Garcia’s relay to infield was wild. He scored on 'Berg’s fly to center which was hauled in by Andy Alonzo. That was the only time the San Carlos club came anywhere near threat- ening. The Raiders had 10 men strand- jed on bases. In the second, Her- nandez led. off with a single ,through second. Lastres hit Has- kins with ‘one of his fast balls. 1|Mira beat out an infield hit and ‘the bases were filled. Lastres was having trouble with his con- trol and hit Machin to force in Hernandez. The policeman, how- ever, took a hitch in his belt and whiffed Walker and Domenech. }Higginbotham skied out to Lopez to end the inning. : Another run was added by the raiders in the third when Arman- do Acevedo scored on three straight infield errors and a balk by Lastres. < The Blue Sox pushed across a run in each of the first four innings.

Pur- {chase orders were being prepared for a. huge barge to be floated at Shark River or East River for use ‘at mobile headquarters for the ipark rangers. The swamp fleet will include also two glade bug- gies, three 16-foot motorboats. 3 Long range plans provide -for the conversion of Flamingo, small fishing village on Cape Sable, into ia park camp ground through .ac- quisition of the rights of residents there. The Cape Sable road will be maintained for access of park visitors to sight-seeing boats, but preservation of the “wilderness character” of the park was speci- fied by the congressional action authorizing creation of the’ park, ‘officiols say. A controversy over protection ‘of oil and mineral rights on park- acquired lands blocked passage this session of a bill sponsored by Representative George Smath- ers of Miami to permit future expansion of the park and to con- |" firm condemnation and oil rights features of former acts of con. ,gress. Park promoters are opti- |mistic that the objections will be ironed out before the next ses- jsion of congress and that congress |will approve the full $139,000 jasked by the department of the linterior for Everglades National k for the fiscal year of 1948. | “TREATY” CONFERENCE i | The United States has pro- posed that the other ten govern- ments represented on the Far iEastern Commission poin in a conference “as soon as possible,” ,in order to draft a peace treaty for Japan.
