SLACK SUITS SACRIFICED Mid-Summer Clearance SAL E Now (L >i iiKr ( Ui Steel Output Near Capacity TTeTeland, July 16.-?Day and al?ht along thu (Boat l>akoH. electric ittoofter* are nutting ashore the "paydirt", which la a vital key to America's defetli*. The "dirt" strategically as precious as gold lu wartime, Is Iron ore. h Is the basic constltutent of shells and scooters, armor anil autoinobhee, casting and cookie cutters. This is one of the biggest oreshipping years In U. S. history. Mills are producing steel virtually at capacity. and It takes millions of tons of ore to keep them going Two tons of ore, with coke and limestone, make a ton of Iron, which may be transformed Into steel with little "shrinkage". Three hundred giant freighters are shuttling cargoes p<,.gVro to lowerlakes mills from thu'4iortliern ranges. Ashore, ready for movement to blast furnaces, the plies of ore look like diggings of ordinary rock or clay ? red, brown, yellow, or black. It sells for a base price of f4.45 to J4.75 a ton, but most pedple not knowing what it was, would puss It by without a second look. You can't smell It and you can't tell a thing about It by Just looking. A "yellow clay" may turn out to be one of the richest of ores. The base price for a 2,240-pound tou Is calculated on tho theory that ore contains 51.5 per cent iron. In practice, commercial ores may range as low as 35 per cent and as high as 08 per cent. So prices are graduated accordingly from tho base rate. Although Iron ore Is found lu each of the United States, the Lake Superior district produces about 86 per cent of the nation's supply. I^ast mouth shipments of this "pay dirt" totaled 9,526,494 gross tons. That was the highest figure for any mouth in history except June and August. 1937. Every Great Lakes vessel capable of carrying ore Is In commission to Teed steel mills operating at virtual capacity. Iron ore comes from both open pit und shaft mines. In the first Instance It Is stripped from the earth by giant power shovels. In the second, shafts are dug to It. Big freighters carry the ore to such lower lakes ports ! as Cleveland, Buffalo, South Chicago, and Gary. Ind., for movement ashore in monster machines known as Hulott ore uuloaders. From underneath, the blunt-nosed machine with Its huge claw resembles nothing so much as a bad dream ?coming closer and closer. It really is a gigantic shovel on tracks. Ail operator sits In the arm of the unloader, directing Its Impersonal clawing. At each bite 12 to 18 tons of ore Is grabbed from tho ship's hold and released Into a hopper, whence the ore goes Into tho steel mill's storage bin?or drops Into a railroad freight car for a trip to a non-lake steel center such as Pittsburga and Yrfungatown. Each round-trip "bite" I takes about 46 seconds, and four tinloaders working at once will empty a 550-foot freighter In four hours. Because Iron ore weighs so much, the usual open freight car has as much as It can safely carry when only a third or half full. This circumstance recalled to the superLnti-ndi-nt of one of Cleveland's oro docks a yarn about World war diffi. llltlcS. Wo were doing our best, but the railroads had broken down and didn't have enough cars. Ships would lay around four or five days to be unloaded.'" In- recalled. Finally a civilian official of tho railroad administration visited one dock and thought he spotted the difficulty. "No wonder you don't have enough cars." he said "Those that you are sending are only half filled."

The Camden aoftball delegation split Us tickets at the^'Wodtieadgy| evening convention at thd Lauren a street stadium and lost a one-sided diamond quarrel by a 10 to 4 score, the Welchmeu from the Hermitage community taking top honors. it was a nice battle for four rounds with Jake Haynes and Grady Welch doing the sharpshootlng for the Camden and Hermitage teams respectively. The outstanding figure in the afternoon performance was Grady Welch, pitcher .and manager of the Hermitage and late of the Panama Cunul zone. Not only did Grady stage, somewhat of a record-breaking feat in issuing free tickets to some eleven Camden batters but he also knocked three holes in the zone with his clubbing, one of the clouts being a homer, the ball being about the longest drive In the park this season. W. (Goofy) Lynch was another lad who tickled the leather for a four base amush, that coming in the third round. With Hermitage scoring one in the second and two in the fourth, and Camden adding three ruus to their side of the score sheet In the fourth the teams entered the fifth bracket with honors even. Beck Russell, hero of Monday's win over the Wateree team took Haynes place on the firing line for Camden ami we have a sneaking idea that some one poured water Into Beck's powder flask for the first Inning or his labor he was greeted with'four resounding smacks, three being bunts laid down by Crolley, Harrison and L. Caulder while J. Caulder annexed a nice drive Into right to put two counters across. Hermitage added a sixth run In the sixth Inning on a hit and two errors. Camden gathered a trip of blows in the sixth and managed to sneak in a counter but Hermitage came back with a run In the seventh to add three hits to a wild heave and an error to score four runs. Camden had plenty of chance* to score In Tour innings when the base* were loaded with either none out or but one out. But outside of the fourth and sixth innings when they did manage to put over a lucky punch and score runners, they succumbed to a confident mill aggregation .

Newsom Out With Injury Boston, July 18.?Babbling Buck Newsom's hopes of broaking the major league record of 19 consecutive pitching victories appeared shattered today, along with the thumb on his throwing hand. The Detroit pitching ace. who has won his last 13 starts, suffered the injury yesterday while taking a throw from Rudy York after covering first base on Ted Williams' slow roller In the fourth inning of the first half of the doubleheader with Red Sox Despite the pain. Newsom remained in action and faced flvo more batters before he retired the side. Then he submitted to medical attention be-1 fore quitting the park. After X-rays revealed the break.
