The doubleheader consisted of games played between third and fourth piace teams, and first and second place teams. Preceding the first game at 2 p. m., the colors were raised by the color guard of Boyd Hilton Post 7062, VFW, Altamont, under command of Sgt. Har- old Plummer. Both games of the doubleheader were 7-inning affairs. The first con- test, between New Salem, third place, and the Albany Braves, fourth place, resulted in a 5-2 victory for the Al- bany team. The second game, between league- leading Krals and second-place Alta- mont, was won by the Krals by a score of 12 to 6. Announcing of the games, and of winners of the several drawings, was creditably done by Mrs. Ella Van Eck, league president. Proceeds of the afternoon, includ- ing proceeds from the drawings, will go into the players' fund of the league. Training At Fort Dix Pvt. John R. Thorsen and Pvt. John W.

The prescription of years ago was largely a hit-or-miss affair. If one drug didn't work, the doctor tried another . . . then another. Often, none of the drugs did much good. But the day of the hit-or-miss prescription is no more. Now, the doctor knows exactly what each drug can do. The first one he prescribes is usually the right one — the one drug that does a perfect job of curing. That's why . . . TODAY'S PRECRIPTION IS THE BIGGEST BARGAIN IN HISTORY CHILDREN'S HEALTH COMES FIRST In any community, child health is of prime importance.

Because shortly after the storm started, Mrs. Colgan realized she would have to get to the hospital a t once—her baby was due. But on the way they reached a crossroad which was blocked by fallen trees. They waited, uncertain what to do next. Just then a raincoated figure appeared be- side the car. \Can I help?\ he said. \I'm from the telephone company.\ Mr. Colgan explained their situation. The telephone man quickly pulled a walkie-talkie radio from under his coat. He called his head- quarters, and they contacted other linemen in ifae area. Li a few minutes, the lineman had the Colgans o n their way—over the only road still open'to the hospital. Shortly after they arrived, the .Colgans became parents of a daughter. As Mrs* Col- gan wrote us, \My story has. a happy ending because an unknown telephone man on a lonely road volunteered his help.\ The \spirit of seryice''..fiiai typifies tele- phone people—on arid oft the job—is one im- portant reason why yijiur phone is siich a bjg, help every, day.
