For one example, a year ago Mickey Vernon of the Senators led both big leagues with a .353 batting average. It was reported that Larry MacFhail had offered $150,000 for Vernons contract, as at that time the Yankees g first baseman had no in sight. Vernon is now around 40th place among American league hitters, not including over 50 hitters in the N.

Bob Feller is now in about 20th place among the winners and Hal ranking is in 42nd. A year ago, Dave Ferriss was on his way to winning 25 games. At this writing, Dave occupies the 26th spot on the pitching side. A year ago, liowie Pullet and Murry Dickson were the two Cardinal stars, close to the top. Pollet was a winner.

Fields of golden pumpkins are ripening near Eureka, 111., pumpkin center of the world, which will stage its fifth annual Pumpkin Festival September 26 and 27. 1H THESE UNITED STATES 10,000 Free Pies Lure Visitors To Eurekas Pumpkin Festival Features. IV NU EUREKA, ILL. Luscious, golden brown pumpkin pies more than 10,000 of them, just like mother used to bake in fact will be given away to visitors as one of the major attractions of the fifth annual Eureka Pumpkin Festival, September 26 and 27. The free pies and other features of the celebration will be aimed to assure visitors that Eureka is the pumpkin center of the world. No city, town or hamlet in the world cans as much fancy pumpkin as Eureka, the towns canneries proudfully boast. The canneries packed a sizable portion of the 1,324,675 cases which comprised last years commercial pack of pumpkin in the United States. celeThe spirit of a century-ol- d bration pervades the annual Pumpkin Festival, timed to coincide with the peak of the pumpkin harvest. During the early 1830s, the small community of Walnut Grove held an picnic called Burgoo. For more than a century the affair had lapsed, but in 1939 the nearly forgotten picnic was revived in Eureka, its modern counterpart being termed the Pumpkin Festival. Although the 1939 plans called for only a small local celebration, the affair expanded rapidly into a two-da- y program. It has been maintained annually since then with exception of the war years. Revived in 1946, the festival attracted more than 50,000 visitors. Inaugurating the 1947 festival will be the first bowl football game ever held in the slate of Illinois. Appropriately dubbed the Pumpkin Bowl Game. the contest will pit Eureka college gridders against the Kirks-villMo., State Teachers under the floodlights of Eureka stadium. Honor guest of the celebration will be the screen star, Ronald Reagan. Eurekas "home town boy, and his wife, Jane Wyman, also of the films. Illinois state officials also will participate in the various programs. Reagan, an alumnus of Eureka schools, will take part in dedicatory ceremonies for a new school of speech building on the Eureka campus. Proving that pumpkins represent the major interest not only for farmers and canneries, housewives of Eureka and vicinity will show their skill at making pumpkin pies by competing in a contest while younger fry will vie in the tracontest. ditional Selection of the Pumpkin Queen will be another festival attraction. Miss Patricia Stevens, modeling agency head, will be among the judges. A parade featuring decorated floats, band concerts and other musical entertainment will help to round out a full program of events festival. for the two-dapie-baki- ' ' i New-house- rs Abandoned School Serves Community Club for 25 Years MINN. century ago Formed a because a quarter schoolhouse was abandoned, the Spring Lake Community club recently celebrated its 25th anniversary. When four adjacent school districts were consolidated and a new schoolhouse was built at Rapidan in 1922, the little old schoolhouse which had served the Spring Lake community was to be discarded. Young men of the community, deciding that the building would make an ideal community gathering place, led a movement for formation of the Spring Lake Community club. The building has been retained as the meeting place since then. The old school bell still hangs in the belfry of the clubhouse.

A few of those who starred last season are still delivering. One of these is Kiner of the Pirates, who led the National League in the home-ruroundup a year ago, and is likely to lead it again. Johnny Mize, always a power hitter, is still shooting his salvos. So is Hank Greenberg. Hut so far, 1947 has been featured by stars unknown a year ago. One is Ewell Blackwell of the Reds, with season in his pocket. a Blackwell has been rated far above Feller and Newhouser with a weaker ball club. The (all and lanky one, the human No. 1 iron, has been the pitcher of the year. Another leading star is Harry Walker of the Phillies. Eddie Dyer, one of baseballs smartest, traded him to the Phillies in exchange for Ron Northey. At v hich point Harry Walker, Dixie Walkers brother, promptly took charge of the batting mark in both leagues. Working with ball club, Walker has been a tail-enone of the season's star performers. So has Blackwell. You heard few rumors about Blackwell and Harry Walker a year ago. But they have driven the stars of 1946 into the gravel ditch. NE yard of fabric for either of these gay aprons!

Each dropper near a post has a piece of wire passed around the top of the post, then around the dropper so that it will give way in flood time and allow the fence of droppers to collapse. The bottom wire, 4 inches from the ground, holds the fence to the posts.
