Baseball Standings Team DMroIt Standing OU'D you were lucky if you could find thirteen handy men n'ho'd be i i to do j-our housework for about 3j an hour.

(We don't mean one man for we mean all thirteen.) You really an that lucky. For it would actually take thirteen skillful huskies to match the service you get from electricity for the same pittance! It's easy and perfectly a a to take electric service for granted. Simply by plugging in you produce the miracle of light--cold for refrigeration--power for cleaning and washing--heat for cooking, toasting, ironing. Not to mention the million dollars worth of entertainment your radio brings you. Yet half of our customers pay only seven cents a day or less for electric service.

Almost all of them use at least three appliances. Many customers who use five or more appliances nay no more than ten cents a day! Why is electricity so cheap? First because of our economies in operation and second because of your increased use" of electricity. These have brought the price of electricity steadily down to where most customers get about twice as much electricity today as they got a dozen 3'cars ago for the same money. The average unit price is only about half of what it was. Moreover you automatically cut your own rate every use more.

The more you use, the lower the price. We of Central Power and Light Companj 1 are proud of these accomplishments. We pledge that, as in the past, we will continue our work of bringing you more and better electric sen-ice at less cost to you.

Pet. .584 .111 .653 .587 REDS GET EDGE ONFLAGFIGHT Mound Superiority Is Conceded Them NEW Cincinnati Reds, with Paul Derringer and Bucky Walters rested and full of purpose, must be conceded the pitching edge over either the Detroit Tigers or the Indians--whichever they Cleveland tackle in the world series next week. Some might like to argue the xint, particularly those who regard Young Bob Peller of the Indians as the greatest pitcher In came oday. Yet the fact seems fairly ovbious to this observer, at least, considering the factors. Gives Pitchers For the first time In man? vear, the National league race was decided in time to give Its champions a breathing ers and Derringer, Instead of going into the series whipped down did a year ago against the Yankees, should be refreshed and at the very peak of their ability.

The Cleveland and Detroit mound staffs, on the other hand, are likely to feel the strain of their tense fight for the flag. With the exception of Feller, they are not youngsters, cither. Tommy Bridges of the Tigers, perhaps the club's greatest "money" pitcher, is approaching his 35th birthday, and his snap-back Is not what it was. Cincinnati has won two straight National league pennants en the strength of superb mound work, end little else. If the Reds were to be deprived, of this pitching superiority-- then there wouldn't much sense in their playing Detroit a world series, for the Tiger sluggers have an enormous advantage over the Reds In sheer test of hitting.

The American league winners can count on facing Derringer In the first game, Walters in the second. Junior Thompson In the third, and then back to Derringer. They we three fine righthanders.
