SU?,by CardlnaU "/ the North ^arolina State League. The Shelby Baseball club, a subsl !?ry ot the St. Jaouis Cardinals, will offer boys this opportunity in a try out camp conducted at Mill Park here starting Monday, May 24, Roettger stated. The camp will continue up proximately one week. Competent scouts of the Cardinal organization will be on hand at the camp to pass Judgment on the players Roettger said, adding that the scouting personnel of the camp will be announced shortly. The Cardinal organization has been conducting camps of this nature for aeveral years and from each camp numerous boys have been signed to contracts. Boys thus signed here will be given contracts with minor leagoe clubs in circuits which will afford them the best opportunity to develop their ability to the point where they may eventually go to the St. Louis club or some other major league team. Boys between the ages of 17 and 23, who believe they have the ability to play baseball professionally are eligible to attend the camp in Shelby, Roettger said. Boys need no recommendations to attend. All they have to do is to present themselves at Mill Park at 9 o'clock the mornlug of Monday, May 24. The only requirements are that out of town boys finance their own trips to Shelby and their living expenses while here. Boys must bring their own shoes, gloves and uniforms. No fee is charged boys who attend. Troy-outs in the camp will probably entail a stay in Shelby of three or four days for out of town boys, Roettger said. Boys who are signed to contracts, Roettger added, will be refunded their expenses incident to attending the camp. Roettger also announced that I j Branch Rickey, Jr., business manager of the Cardinal-owned Asheville club, had been sent to Shelby to contact j newspaper men and managers of amateur and semi-pro clubs, seeking prosj pects for the camp.

I WORLD-WIDE DEMAND FOR 8CRAP IRON Doubtless you may recall those piles of old, rusty automobiles, bed springs, and twisted wire that generally are a visitor's first sight of an American city. Well, It is very possible that the next time you pass the site of a familiar pile you may find that it has been cleared away. For I such piles of junk suddenly have become one of the most valuable products id the United States, for- which any -number of foreign nations are bidding against one another. From such heaps of old metal there comes scrap iron, that product which is poured into the waiting maws of thousands of factories in all parts of the world. And out of -these factories rolls the endless stream of machinery, munitions, and even ships the steel and ircm of which perhaps came from some rusty Junk pile. So great is the world-wide demand for American scrap iron today that ! the tramp ships of the world cannot keep up with the orders. Close to the docks of the port of Boston, Mass., the nWnber of freight cars of scrap iron awaiting unloading is so large that the railroads serving the port J have banned further shipments until the present stock has been poured in-1 to the holds of tramp steamers. And while the ports of the United States cannot find the ships to carry their stocks, the factories of Europe and Asia call for more and more | scrap . iron, Glasgow, Scotland?perhaps the greatest shipbuilding center in the world?is finding itself severely handicapped by the lack of metal, while many nations are passing laws forbidding the exportation of scrap iron. But while the demand exists, the United States will continue to benefit. For it will be clearing up the eyesores that have existed for so many years, and it will do so at a profit. No "Feeble-Minded" Babies Columbia, May 12.?There is no such thing as an infant born "feebleminded," according to Dr. Isadore Schayer, professor of hygiene at the University of South Carolina. "A new-born baby has not been responding to any but the simplest of stimuli . . . none of ltB organs have had to do any kind of work, especially the sense organs. Therefore, since the muscles, the brain, the entire nervous system are unused at birth, the child comes into the world minus that which we call a mind!'" "The baby has neither a good nor a feeble mind, because he is born with no mind at all," says Dr. Schayer. , s "The so-called 'feeble-minded' baby has some purely physical defect. It may be that he lacks enough cortex, or covering of the brain. At any rate, tho amount of brain he possesses is Just as good as any ... it is only deficient in structure." The Florida house voted 84 to 7 to repeal an act of 1935 legalizing slot machines in that state, and then voted 75 to 13 for a law putting heavy penalties on owners and operators of slot machines in the state.
