Hits by Werber and Parker sent four runs across the plate in this canto. Wally Moses swung into one of Mc Gregor’s fast balls and sent it riding high and far over the distant right- field barrier for the only home run the A’s were able to bat out. Doubles by Moses,''E^asterling and Hayes, and a base on bidls, gave the Athletics three more runs in the fourth. Mc Gregor and Reid slipped up on Moses in this inning and caught him nap ping at second. Singles by Parker and Easterling, and Ambler’s two-base hit gave the Philly team two runs in the fifth frame.

Agent Clinton Realty & Insurance Co. .About 16 boys at P. <\ r(*cently had an unusual experience that almost every small lH>y dreams of, but vei-y few ever accomplish. That was to play against a real, honest-to-gmidness, big-league basoliall club. Connie Mack’s At'hU“tics were simply too gtxHi for the Blue Hose lo provide an interesting game from the stamlpoint of com|H>tition. But the magic name of Connie Mack and the Philadelphia Athletics and the anticipated thrill of seeing them in action drew hundreds despite the threatening weather last Thurs day to witness the exhibition game on the P. C. field. The Athletics have been iny favorite major league baseliall team over since I began to follow Imseball results. Perhaps it was because they w-ere on top when I first began to hear of them. Perhaps it was the fame of Connie Mack as a wonderful gentleman and a keen baseball authority. Maybe it was admiration for such players as Jimmie Foxx, D'fty Grove, Mickey t'oehran, (leorge Earnshaw and other Athletics in bast-hall’s hall of fame. Since then the Mackmen have hit btittom with a bang, but I still some how like them best. I btdieve, as Connie Mack does, that in another year or two they will b« back on tot), playing the kind of ball that wins pennants, iweh'Tr thm e club naiTiid lYrinkees!

The honored misses were Peggry Johnson, Amelia Payne, Betty Hunter and Margaret Wallace . . . Autograph collectors and snapshot artists were at the Athletics-P. C. game in profusion ... If you can’t take it, don’t be an umpire. Those fellows certainly have to know what they are doing, make up their mirids quickly and stick to it. It probabljr seemed like home-coming day or an alumni meeting when the Duke university baseball nine faced the Philadelphia. Athletics in a game soon after the P. C. exhibition game. Except for the three outfielders, the A’s entire team that day was composed of Duke graduates: Newsome at first, Ambler at second, Werber at third, Wagner catchjng, Ace Parker at .short, and Doan pitching . . . Braving'chill winds, some 3,500 people attended the first exhibition baseball game of the season in Greenville last week. This showed a real desire for professional baseball there and encouraged the authorities to consider Greenville an ideal baseball town.

The Standard Ford V-8. with 6(l-horse> power en^ne, gives you a lot of car for a little money. 300,000 new owners acclaimed the "dirifty 60” last year. Hundreds a day are buying it in 1938. Why? Because it is priced low — includes essential equipment without extra charge—and goes farther between filling stations than any Ford car ever built. Owners all over the country report averages of >22 to 27 miles on a single gallon of gasoline. But economy isn’t all the story by any means. The Standard ”60” is built with the same precision as the De Luxe ”85.” and has the same 112-inch wheelbase chassis. It is easy to look at and ride in —a* well as easy to buy and run.
