According to the London, Eng- land Express and Star, Joe did the star catching_ in an exhibition game of baseball played before several thousand Englishmen who never before had witnessed a ball game. Joe is now staff sergeant in the U. S. army that has been stationed in England for many months. A picture of Joe behind the bat was printed in the London Ex- press and Star on June 14, and together with it a description of the game. Joe used to be manager of the Schrader -Haggerty ball team which cagsed no end of grief for the other ball clubs in. this area. Here is the story as carried by the London. paper: "Majority of spectators who watched the Americanball game between American infantry and air force teams at Molineux on Saturday did- not get the thrills anticipated, but all. agreedthat the fielding and catching were outstanding. The infantry team won by seven runs to two: "I (the reporter) was particu- larly impressed. with the adept- ness of the fields and: their abil- ity to run in and catch practically every hign bail, but I must con- fess I would not go out of my way to watch many of these games. "I liked the way the players tossed off their massive gloves when they changed over to bat so they could be used by their opponents, and the tradition of `the seventh innings stretch' when all spectators stood up, turned about, and stretched their limbs. Why? Just, an old Amer- ican custom. "Umpire Lieut. Bert Wiley, who got a nasty crackon his head by the ball but carried on, tol43 me that the rate of scoring was quite comparable with that of an ordinary game. The pitchers pitched very fast and it was pos- sible to get a lot of `curve' even with the underhand pitching. "If ,you wondered. why there were spare men near first and third bases I can tell you the answer. They were there to tell the men on bases when to run." You've Tried the Rest, Now Use the Rest` .. .

Electricity is not rationed. But each time you turn on an electric light in your home, each time you plug in an electric appli- ance, you are using vital war materials. Electricity requires coal for its manufac- ture. Thousands of tons are burned every day in large Detroit Edison power plants --coal that is brought in by boat and by rail. Besides coal, large quantities of other materials are also needed—oil, for example. All of these represent pre- cious manhours of labor. There is` no shortage of generating ma- chinery in this area. But a saving of elec- tricity means a saving of coal ... and saving coal means releasing more trans- portation facilities for the job of carrying guns and oil and other war materials to our armed forces.
