YORK, June 21 (DP)— jack Tighe, the fiery
•'fnanagrt of the Detroit Tigers, said today that his ♦—m
~"™* "nowhere to go but up” and while it may not win the
... America* League pennant “we will decide Just who does
win it.”
Tighe, enjoying his first season as a major league
ager after 21 years of baseball wandering, picks the
- York Yankees M ^e team to beat.
• whether his club does it de-
' Pends, he thinks, on whether his
; hitfe^s start to bang the ball con-
Sisl^ntly.
• "dt they hit like they can, we’ll
• snake a big run at it,” he ana-
lyzed- “Our attack has been fee-
• ble at times and it is fortunate
• we are as close as we are. Ray
I Boone and Harvey Kuenn are the
’keys and if they don’t start hit-
Jtjng we’ll hover around the
•fourth spot all year.”
Jiaean ^ Disappointment—
Kuenn’has been one of Tighe’s
.Thltf disappointments. Last sea-
jjgn^he knocked in 88 runs from
the leadoff spot. Up to Thursday
he had batted in only 14 runs all
season, with only three in the
“past four weeks.
”.Jim Bunning has been a big
surprise for us,” said the 42-
yeor-old Tighe. "He’s seven and
-♦•one with a remarkable earned
‘ run average of 1.62.”
There Is a light mood about
the Tigers, oven though they are

not as close to the lead aa they
had hoped to be. The reason is
Tighe, a hard-working manager
who catches batting practice,
stays on intimate terms with his
players and demands only that
they give 160 per cent effort.
Time In Minors—
"I spent a long time in the
minors,” he reminisces. “It was
a hard Journey through Charles-
ton, Beaumont, Flint, Muskegon,
Toledo and Buffalo. Now that I
finally made it up here, a guy
who won’t work isn’t going to
send me back.”
But for those who do give out.
Tighe is the first man to go to
bat.
”1 polled every player when
Bucky Harris left last year to
see who they would like to have
as manager,” says Van Patrick
of Detroit radio station WJR.
"To a man, they picked Tighe,
who was a coach on the club for
two years. The new owners went
with him, instead of bringing in
a high-priced ‘name’ manager—
and everybody is glad of the de-
cision right today.”
Tighe is, too. And he’d be the
happiest fella if his hitters would
start banging the ball._

TRI CK DRIVER KILLED
PECOS. Tex. H P) - William
Theodore Black, 38. a Midland
truck driver, was fatally injured
early today when hi* butane gas
truck ran through a fence and
turned over three 'miles aouth-
eaisi of here.
Callage Station, June 21.—For
the first time hi seven years,
cattle numbers are down in the
United States. A nation-wide drop
of 2 percent in total cattle num-
bers last year coupled with re-
cent widespread rain creates •
better-than-average chance for
higher prices.
The long drouth was largely
responsible for this decline, and'
cattle numbers have not yetj
turned downward in either the
South or Midwest although Tex-
as registered a 7 percent reduc-
tion in 1956. Actually, national
numbers are now at a point of
balance and could swing either
way If moisture conditions keep
on improving.
Extension Economist John Me-
Haney says cattle prices will
probably improve if rains con-
tinue to fall at the right time and
in the right places. He figures
this would cause many ranchers j
to restock, holding back a good,
many heifer calves from slaugh-1
ter. He says It also might create'
a better demand for steer and
heifer Stocker.
MrHaney says American cat-
tlemen can generally expect
higher cattle prices In a few
years if the over-all economic
activity and non-farm income re-
mains high. He bates this pre-
diction on the declining cattle to
people ratio in recent years with
the assumption that It will con-
tinue.
The economist advises cattle
raiaers to finish animals out hv
late June to avoid heavy July
and August marketing. There
were 4 percent more cattle on
feed In January’ »han a year ear-
lier and Indications this year
points to n longer feeding period
I Feeder cattle prices won’t In
1 crease greatly by next fall, but
! they will probably be slightly
| higher. Increased pork and poul-
! try supplies will compete with
beef.

Forty years ago, in June of 1917, the Humble
Company received its charter from the State of Texas.
The Company was formed through a merger
of the properties of a number of independent oil
operators. Its founding brought together • remark-
able group of men who occupy an important place
in the annals of the oil industry:
R. S. Sterling and hit brother, F. P. Sterling,
the principal organizers of Humble Oil Company
from which the present company acquired its name;
W. S. Parish and R. /.. Bluffer composing Bluffer
and Farish; H. C. W ins with assets from Paraffine
and Reliance Oil Companies; Walter W. Fondren
and C. B. Coddard, producers; and I.. A. Carlton
and E. E. Tounes as lawyers.
All of these men contributed greatly in adopting
the principles, in shaping the policies, and in laying
out procedures that have guided the Company's
progress through these forty years. Their influence
will survive as long as the Company continues.
They possessed courage and business judgment.
They established high standards of performance.
They built a strong organization of competent men
and women.
The Company, as it stands today, is a tribute
to the leadership, the vision, and the work of
its founders.
But it is doubtful that these men, with all their
foresight, visualized the changes that have occurred
in the oil industry since 1917, or the size and com-
plexity of I tumble's present operations, or the extent
of the Company's contributions through the years
to the progress of our society.
To all w ho have made those contributions
possible—employees, customers, shareholders and
the people of the states in which the Company
operates -Mumble esteods ns thank'
