The Clinton Cavaliers proved to be a different and improved ball clup up on their emersion from the cellar spot where they were stationed in the standing of the Central Carolina Lea gue duiing the first part of the sea son. • After leaving the cellar Clinton has humbled the league-leading \Natts ^ Warriors for three gan^es and have knocked off the second place Ware Shoals Riegels once. Last Friday night the Cavaliers hopped on three Watts pitchers for 23 runs on an 18-hit merry-go-’round. Charlie Gaffney led Clinton’s bats-go- ’round with a perfect night of four hits for four trips to the plate. Two of these were doubles. There were eight home runs hit in the track meet. McWhorter collected two circuit trips in one inning while “Blackie" Black- stock tapped a circuit blow in the first and collected another in the eighth. Crocker and McWhorter did mound duties for Clinton. The “comedy of errors” totaled up a 23-9 victory for the Cavaliers. Clinton went to Watts Saturday night and lost a tough 5-3 decision. Whit Bowie, Clinton manager, is pro testing the game on the grounds that the umpire changed an important de cision in favor of Watts. Monday night the Cavaliers edged Ware Shoals 1-0 in a well- played game before approximately 2000 fans. Charlie Gaffney accounted for Clin ton's run when he clouted a homer into the pines behind the right field wall. Wayne Johason. making his de but with the Cavaliers, pitched fine six hit ball and received exceptional support from his team mates. The game Tuesday night with Riv- erdale was called off because of the clashing of clouds and the rains that followed. In the Mid-State League Lydia’s Lions strengthened their hold on the first place standing in the league sta tistics by trimming Monarch. William Rowland threw a two hit ter at the mm from Monarch.

Hoover Not Quit As FBI Leader Washington, June 15. — Attorney General Clark today described as “ridiculous” a report that J. Edgar Hoover had resigned as FBI chief. That was a bold and challenging | speech which former President Her- ! bert Hoover made at Ohio Wesleyan university riflring the week-end, when he ‘took a vigorous dig at the i brand of “New Era’’ thinking which substitutes security for self-reliance. Certainly the topic is timely, for . there are few corners of the world where it isn't being discussed and in many cases experimented with. Even John Bull, who through the gener ations has stood for solid conserva tism, now is up to his neck in So- w cialism. ! Hoover said that while “security” eliminates the risks of life, it “also kills the Joy thal lies in competition, in individual adventure, new under takings and new achievements. These contain moral and intellectual im pulses more vital than even profits, for from them alone comes national progress.” This is foom a man whose life is a romance of American success. He was orphaned at 10 and was self- supporting by 15. He rose to the top as a mining- engineer, working in many parts of the world. Fame camo to him for his relief administration work in Europe during World War I, and fiinally he was elected to the presidency. Previously he had served eight year as secretary of commerce. And it is recorded that Hoover gave every dollar from his public salaries to help the needy. “At all times in history there have been many who sought escape info ‘security’ from self-reliance,” said the ex-president. "And, if you will look over the workings of these newest eras throughout the world, you may notice that the judgment of the Lord on Adam has not been entirely reversed, even by the su preme court of the United States. “Moreover, governments have not been able to fix the wages of sin. Nor have they found a substitute for profit and other personal stimulants.” If You Don't Read THE CHRONICLE You Don’t Get the News I Gifts for Father’s Day and Every Day Who says it’s hard to please Poppa on his day?
