Jim Scoppettone and Ed Destaillats, two sports minded youths have called the drills, to take up slack created when the Junior league disbanded. Scoppettone said boys 15. 16 and 17 years of age will be elig ible to play and he hopes four teams will make up the loop. The Junior league was voted down by the recreation department be cause of conflicts presented by the Pony league and Junior Sea hawk teams.

Mews By GEO. H. SCOFIELD YOUR FRIENDLY FORD DEALER Seems like eon moving faster than cat on hot tin roof these days. Miracles keep popping up like gophers in a cornfield. A Harvard Professor says that the time will come when the clothes we wear will be made of synthetic materials which will be edible In oth-er words, you get up In the A.M., eat your pajamas and head for the salt mine.

Which i fine, if wear pajamas. The Professor says meat and egg have got to go because the animals producing them ue too much food. In the future when fellow tells a girl he looks good enough 1o eat, he may be paying her a compliment or he may be hungry. If you spill your lunch on your vest you eat the vest for dinner and call it hash. If that t.me ever comes I'll eat my hat.

We noticed In The Sentinel the other day a story regarding the Ground Observer Corps. The story related that in a recent navy-air force joint test alert nearly all "strike" planes were spotted by members of the Ground Observer Corps long before the planes reach-ed their target areas. Here ia concrete evidence that volunteers like you and I might be able to save a city from enemy airplanes. Volunteers give up their spare time to keeo this great country on the alert. More personnel are needed and Information can be obtamed by contacting County Civil Director Donald Gates at GArden 3-7575.

let's all help In the Civil Defense program the city you save might be your ownl Well, Mayflower II got here but the Coast Guard had to tow it the last few miles into port. Guess you need more pull to get into the country these days. No car owner relishes the thouoht of being "towed in." Still, it's bound to haopen now and then so, if it happens to you, 11 noon game and the lights will not be used as the transformers will not arrive until July 18. The Seahawk football team has a night game scheduled July 27 against the Martinez Panthers. When completed, the fields, both baseball and football, will be supplied with maximum lighting.

In fact, the field will be so well lighted, that the company who sold the lights to the city will send a mand own for three or four days to adjust the lights and then they plan to take pictures and get the pertinent facts to make it a part of their advertising program. The company is the 'Commercial Lighting Equipment company CLE. The 15 poles, 70 feet high, have been installed and the underground conduit is in, only a few trenches remain to be filled. The light reflectors are spread out in the dressing room and they take up more than half of the floor space. All totaled, their will be 230 lights on both fields and they ran be turned on simultaneously or separately.

One hundred and twenty lights will illuminate the football field and 110 the baseball diamond. The lamps are guaranteed for 2000 hours and when you divide that by four hours, a figure used as the average length of time the lights would be on for a game, that means 500 contests could be played before a light bulb would have to be replaced. Four poles on each side of the football field will have 15 lights each. Three of the four poles on one side of the gridiron will have lights on the opposite side, illuminating the baseball diamond also. These poles run down the left field foul line.

The baseball diamond will have 10 poles around it, including the three used for football. Each fiole, except two, will have 10 ights focusing on the diamond. The two poles, one opposite third base and one near first base, will have 15 lights. Four poles will throw light to the outfield and three will light the infield and the foul lines, from each side. The lights on the poles will be on a five lamp stand which is in a semi-circular shape.

The total lighting bill is expected to cost the city about $19,000, while construction, it is anticipated, will cost $5000, making a total bill of $24,000. Harry Winterburn, dty recreation director, Friday said the bill would probably be around $35,000 if it weren't for all of the wonderful help from volunteers. The recreation director further stated that he assumed all of the money came as a donation from Harvey West, for whom the stadium is named. West, a Placer-ville lumberman and former local resident, donated most of the materials, purchased the property and practically gave it to the city when the plant was originally built. The baseball diamond has been turned around, placing home plate where third base used to be located.

This necessitated moving the fence back about 100 feet where the new right field fence is located. A backstop for Pony League will be erected in that corner. Paul Hirsch, a contractor wa hired to move the fences and provide technical advice for the construction with Joe Atiberti, Seahawk baseball manager, has done a fine job. They pulled off Wednesday, having completed their portion of the work. The city will finish erecting the backstops, filling in right field and what little work there remains to be done on the fences.

Winterburn tossed flowers to the power company for digging post holes and helping to install the poles. Wendell Batt did a good excavating job, according to Winterburn and Clark and Clark did a fine job of moving the grandstand. FINE DIAMONDS WRITTEN GUARANTEE WITH EVERY WATCH REPAIR PALOMAR ARCADE All Al By Ed Corrigan New York UP). Sweeping changes in the selection of baseball's All-Star team loomed today in the wake of a fantastic situation that would have sent the entire Cincinnati team excepting the pitcher against the American League had not Commissioner Ford Frick yielded his veto power. Some baseball officials wanted the game "given back to the managers," meaning that the 16 fiilots would select the start-ng teams.

This was tried once, but discarded because it "took the game away from the fans." As the voting now stands, a fan can vote hundreds of times, so long as he fills out the official ballot in the newspaper that has been designated as the regional vote-counter. Just before the voting deadline at midnight Thursday, the Cincinnati Times-Star deposited more than half a million votes in the league office. Virtually all of them named the entire Cincin nati lineup. Frick acted quickly yesterday. He dumped first baseman George Crowe, center fielder Gus Bell and right fielder Wally Fost.

in their places he named, respect ivelv. Stan Musial of St. Louis, Willie Mays of New York and Hank Aaron of Milwaukee. These three had been leading at their positions before the Cincinnati deluee. There still will be five Keoiegs in the starting lineup in St Louis July 9 catcher Ed uaiiey, sec ond baseman jonnny lempie, shortstop Rov McMillan, third baseman Don Hoak and left field' er Frank Robinson.

"Thev were leading even with out tne avaiancne irom wncin' nati." said Frick. Last year, too, five members of the Redlegs were named on the starting team. That caused some grumbling and there were scattered calls for a revision in the manner of selecting the team. But nothing was done. HORSE STIMULATED Inelewood (IP).
