KC SQUEEZE BY
KIWANIS 1-0
Thursday night, June 2, at the
West Little League field two
fine ballclubs met to give the
spectators quite a thrill in a
tight l-o win by ace pitcher,
Alphonse Cocek and the KC
ball club. Kiwanis had their
great little pitcher Freddie Bar-
ton on the mound going the full
six innings.
An error in the fourth was the
big chance for KC as Jerry Mc-
Morrough, -the batter, hit a ball
which would have been an out,
but the first baseman dropped
the ball. McMorrough stole sec-
ond and then his teammate
Harry Kolar, the shortstop, hit
a clean single to drive in the
only run of the night. Both
teams had only two hits each,
all singles. Both pitchers struck
out eleven imen apiece.
WFD Wallops SPJST 7-1
Friday night, June 3, was a
little different from the 1-0
game the night before. Bats
were swinging for both clubs
as SPJST lost their second game
in a row and WFD won their
first game without any losses.
Freddie Popp, the veteran
ballplayer and pitcher, aided
his cause by knocking two tre-
mendous homeruns with a
man on base each time. Also
WFD centerfielder Carlton Kar-
lik tagged one in the second in-
ning with one man on base.
Losing pitcher was Adamcik
who pitched a fine game and
accounted for one of the four
hits his team received. Volcik,
the catcher, had two singles and
Kapavik the first baseman had
one single.
VFW Too Much for KC
Baseball consists of three big
elements: runs, hits and errors.
In Monday nights game, June
teams both had quite a few of
the three above mentioned. VFW
had- 15 runs, 10 hits, and 7
errors. KC had only 4 runs, 7
hits and 8 errors.
Reiger won his second game
and Jerry McMorrough was the
loser for KC. He was relieved
by Wilson and Plsek after going
two innings after he had given
up 7 runs 'on 5 hits.
Wilson toad 3 singles, Plsek
and Machovsky one single
apiece; McMorrough a double;
and Chudej a triple for KC.
VFW sluggers were Gerik with
three singles, Smetak with two
singles, Sulak one homerun and
a triple, F. Binner two singles
and R. Binner on single.
SPJST Defeats Kiwanis 3-2
Tuesday night, June 7 SPJST
won their first game this season
by going an extra inning after
the score was deadlocked 2-2.
The first man up in the bottom
of the seventh ended the old
ball game by knocking a home-
run into left field. Morgan is his
name and he is their third base-
man.
Freddie Barton started for
Kiwanis and Ernie Janek for
SPJST and both pitched fine
ball games for six innings, but
the youngsters are not allowed
to pitchi more than six innings.
Kapavik. who toad been playing
rigtot field for SPJST relieved
Janek and struck out the side.
Lednicky, centerfielder for Ki-
wanis faced only Morgan, and
was given the lose. Kapavik is
credited with the win.
Kiwanis scored their two runs
in the fourth after an error, a
single by Barton, and a single by
Krizan, the first baseman. Stevie
Mellgren, second baseman, hit a
single in the 7th. SPJST hitters
were Morgan, homerun; singles
by Volcik, Marek, Kapavik, ard
Adamcik. They scored one run in
the fourth, one in the fifth and
their final run in the seventh
inning.
The ball game gave SPJST
one win and two losses and Ki-
wanis two losses and no wins.

Jerry Mashek
Re-elected
Commissioner
County Commissioner Jerry
Mashek of Precinct 3 was re-
elected to his post for another
4-year term in a run-off elec-
tion held June 4. He defeated
Jim Dollins by a vote of 1,755 to
1,290.
At the West polls, 1,304 voters
were cast which amounted to
just about one-sixth of the total
vote from 55 voting boxes in Mc-
Lennan County. According to
the Sunday Waco Tribune-
Herald the “Mashek - Dollins | city limits to include their prop-
race turned up the usual big
vote at West where people al-
ways take their right to vote as
something that should be ex-
ercised at every election.”
In accounting for the West
votes cast, Mashek received a
lop-sided margin over Dollins
with 1242 and Dollins only 59.
The East Waco Box No. 10 car-
ried Dollins with over 400 votes
in tois favor, but not enough to
defeat Mashek,
Mr. Mashek is a native of
West where he, his wife and five
children reside.
In the only state office at
stake, Judge W. T. McDonald of
Bryan was elected to the post of
Justice of the Court of Criminal
Appeals. In McLennan County
he received 5,424 votes to his op-
ponent Judge Lloyd Davidson's
2,242 votes.
In a run-off election held in
Precinct 1, businessman Ray
Berry was elected County Com-
missioner and will take office

Philosopher Discovers Businessmen
Not Up-tc-Date on Economic Trends
Editor’s note: The Philosopher I a. dozen increase, which ought
on his Johnson grass farm on I to be cheap enough, sn I au-
Aquilla Creek apparently does- j tomatically marked up the price
n’t have a full understanding t""1'
of what the price index is, his
letter this week indicates.
Dear editar:
On? trouble with this country
is that not enough business peo-
l/le keep up with the economic
trends.
For example, I read in a copy
of a newspaper day before yes-
terday that living costs rose
four-tenths of one per cent in
April, as reflected by the con-
sumers price index, a set of
figures put out by the U. S.
government.
As a result of this, the article
explained, nearly a million
workers in the auto, farm equip-
ment and related parts indus-
tries got an automatic 2-cent-an
hour raise. Their contracts call
for adjustments based on the
government’s consumer price in-
dex.
Well, now, I figure, I’m in the
auto and farm equipment busi-
ness, so to speak, especially the
parts end of it, so naturally I
concluded I was supposed to
get a pay raise too,' and since
nobody pays me by the hour out
here on this Johnson grass
farm, the only way I could see
how to get a pay increase was
to raise the price of things I
sell.
I don’t know how long it takes
for a hen to lay a dozen eggs,
but I figured on the basis of
that 2-cent-an-hour boost the
others were getting, me and
my hens would settle for 2-cents held for the Juniors.
that much, and took some to
town.
Like I said, the trouble with
this country is not enough busi-
ness people keep up with the
economic trends. I couldn’t find
an egg dealer in this part of
the state who'd ever heard of
the governi.rcnt’s consumers
price index. When I said the
price of my eggs are now 2 cents
a dozen higher, they looked at
me like they thought I was
crazy.
What 1 figure is we’ve got a
lot of business people in this
country who don’t keep up with
the economic trends or else th y
are still using the same price ir -
dex they had pasted on their
office walls 25 years ago.
You’ve got a printing press
somewhere there in The West
News office, haven’t you? How
about printing up a bunch of
these new price indexes and
distributing them around the
country?
Yours faithfully,
P. A.

and Mr. Muska is bloodmobile

has been appointed Chairman
of the Tours Community.
The Kiwanis Club is again
giving a $10 certificate, good
for merchandise, to a “lucky
donor,” drawn from the names
of those that volunteer to do-
nate blood.
Residents of West and sur-
rounding communities are urged
to keep this date in mind, and
if at all possible, give a pint of
blood on June 29. Recent blood-
mobile visits to West have shown
a growth in interest and pro-
duction and to continue this
growth, new donors are needed.
When the bloodmobile unit
made its last visit to West in
January it was encouraging that
16 donors gave for the first time.
One of our biggest community
problems is making people con-
scious of the life saving advan-
tage of She Red Cross Blood
Program. But the fact remains
that someone mimt give before
another can live.
Among the citizens of the
West Corrnmunity there are
many who have realized the full
value of having blood ready fur
use in their time of need. There
will be more than one new
mother w>ho has had the experi-
ence of being among the living
because she required from one
to 20 pints of whole blood at the
time or her delivery and blood
was ready for her use. There
will be a farmer who has had
the bad experience of an ulcer
hemorrhage that created inter-
nal bleeding to such an extent
that many, many pints of whole
blood were necessary to keep
him from hemorrhaging to
death.
Accidents, surgery, and illness
take a constant toll of blood.
When you realize that the av-
erage human being has approxi-
mately 12 or 13 pints of blood in
their body and if at a time of
illness or accident live or ten
pints are lost it is evident that
such blood cannot be replaced
by the patient. The only way
to prevent deatth is blood do-
nations from other human be-
ings. At such a time it is life
saving for blood to be collected,
typed, and ready for cross-
matching, such cases do not per-
mit time to call people from
their homes and jobs to go to
the hospital to give blood.
Only by help and interest
from everyone can this commu-
nity program be maintained.
Doctors of this area requested
this blood center and it was
established by toelp of the gov-
ernment and the American Red
Cross.
The blood program must be
recognized as a community re-
sponsibility, and must be shared
by all, if blood is to be avail-
able. If everyone in West and
surrounding communities would
give, who are able, there would
be no need, for anyone to give
more than once every few years.
However, many give generously
— two, three, four gallons of
blood that has been used by
themselves or their families.
It is possible to give blood
every 56 days, not more than
five times a year. This is a pain-
less procedure, equivalent to a
hearty sneeze. Wittoin 24 hours
the liquid content is built back
in the body and within 48 hours
most of the mineral value has
been regained. Anyone between
the ages of 18 through 59, who
weighs 110 pounds or over can
give blood.
Please remember the Blood-
mobile visit, remind your rela-
tives and friends and make an
effort to donate a pint of blood
on June 29th. Response to ap-
peals for blood donations not
only save lives but proves to the
world that unselfish service to
our fellow man is fundamental
to our way of life.
