inspected they would. be
returned.
" Kemibayashi, who con-
noieed 6 for 6, the Poop-
outs proved to be easy
prey as doped out for the
peerless xeds,
In one of the wildest
affairs ever witnessed on
the*softball diamond, the
clinching game was a thrill-
er until the fatal sixth,
the inning which the glo-
rified ""Oldtimers" will
never forget.
Taking the defense in

Center activities have increased in tempo since May
10 when the first volunteers entered the grounds, and at
the same time this growth has been coordinated into a
well-organized system.
Visible signs of improvement are seen in the results
of the mess contests posted early in July by Mr. L. C.
Shaffer, Director of Mess and Lodging.
Mr. B. T. Parsons of the Works Division is overly
pleased with the accomplishments of the Hog Barn crews
of skilled workers.
And the ever-busy Service Division under Supervisor
id Levy has made wonderful progress in every department.
Jack McFarland has set thc wheels of 20 recreational
activities rolling to keep everyone physically fit.
These, then, point out conclusively the well-knit
organization that we now enjoy--thanks to wise counsel,
careful planning, individual initiative and hard work.
