Anderson won, 6 to 2. P. & Motor won from B. & B. BilL.eds by the simple expedient of larceny. With the score knotted at one all, Mose Morris stole home, then his brother Jim made it a famiy affair by duplicating the wind-up- . theft, for a Baron Wooloen Mills climbed into a tie for second place in the league by downing Dredges Mens Wear 12 to 8, and in the game between the leagues American Sportswear and Brigham Construction, the Sportswear nine out raced their opponents Tire-Bund- 3-- 1 tail-ender- Tire-Bund- y 14 to 11. Airus Bergstrom, pitching for Thompsons, held the Anderson Auto nine hitjess for the first three innings, then allowed four scattered hits in the remainder of the game with two earned runs. Don Johnson, pitching for Andersen, gave up five hits. Anderson Auto had the best ball club, made up of older, more experienced players, but the spirit displayed by the Thompson youngsters had the fans on their feet cheering most of the game. League officials termed Bergstroms mound performance best - Pitied softball game.the, in ' the park this year. There are two games remaining in the first half for each team in the city softball league. Crowds have been increasing steadily, and the quality of soft-babeing played has shown definite improvement each week. It's getting to be a pretty fast softball league, Hal Bosley, league secretary and Junior Chamber sports chairman, declared today. The crowds seem to be enjoying the games immensely, and more and more people are coming out. Bosley reminded that the public is welcome and invited to attend all the softball games. No admission charge is made for these games. The city has constructed bleachers in the of the Rees park ball diamond, back of the softball field, and there is a gate in the deep leftfield fence. Persons driving to the softball ball games may enter the park through the gate, which is at the base of First North street. There is plenty of parking space just outside the gate. Friday night American Auto should have a comparative breeze against the Brigham y nine. The way Thompsons looked last Friday, Baron Woolen mills should be in for a big evening even though they are well ahead in the league standing. F. & W. holds a good t edge over American Sportswear, while the B. & vs. Dredges game might be the contest of the evening. high-flyin- g ll 1 4 i t JM 2 4 $ 2 $h n M ? 2 t 5 d Tire-Bund- i : dope-bucke- Phone your news to No. 7.

Last Sundays game at Magna was important for only one reason, as it turned out. A win would have put the Peaches a full game ahead of Provo, as of today. Then if Provo should lose tonights game, the Peaches would have had the league title clinched. If Provo wins tonight, ; then last Sundays game didnt make so much difference after all. Except that next Sundays game would have been for the Peaches, instead of as is now is sure to be. win-or-ti- e win-or-lo- se We have Vernal Harriss jiJJiaklabftut, 160, boys and men are playing baseball in regluar - league teams in Brigham City at the present time, word-.fo- r meets Murray in a makea rained-ou- t May game.

P. A. now appears to be out of existence, prices of all the necessities of life will go "sky high." Frankly, we doubt it. In fact, we're inclined to believe that some of the fear is inspired by the federal employes who will be scuttling from the sinking O. P. A. to other government jobs or heaven forbid! to working fora living. Our fears are allayed by our confidence in the American people, in American business, in the American way of doing things! Free enterprise worked before.

If a price is too high, we'll find a vendor, or else do without. (The price will come down quickly enough!) Mass production and mass sales were built up in America on fair prices, prices that put items that are "luxuries" everywhere else in the worjd within reach of nearly every American family. And as competition and mass sales brought "down the prices, they enabled the manufacturers to boost the quality. To some1 manufacturers, QUALITY and VALUE always have meant more than PRICE.

Today Rees Pioneer park must be denied certain groups entitled to use it, for the uncontestable reasonthat it is busy practically every afternoon and evening hour of the week. Right now Brigham City needs at least one more baseball field and a soft-bal- l field, both lighted, to accommodate recreaorganized tion groups in existence.
