RURAL GROUPS BUILD MATERNITY HOSPITAL

KING'S LYNN. Norfolk. Eng- land, Aug. l5 - (OP) — Great Britain's national health scheme notwithstanding. the people of 140 scattered Norfolk villa!!! 511d hamlets have built a £40,000 (D169)- 000) maternity hospital.

Called “The Stork Hotel," it is one of the most modern maternity units ln the British Isles.

It was promoted by Wvméll’! ll- Iociatlons determined to prwellt childbirth in amp counsel with- out electric light. Subscriptions came from farmers. their hired hands. shepherds and shopkeep- ens.

But the nursing staff made ii- self rmponslhle for the hospital's £900 Inter-communication sot-up. ‘lhcy call it the “patienhtn-fiursa" call system.

Beside each bed are two switch- es. One turns on a radio. The other powers a microphone hang- ine above the bed. Throudh it the patient calls her nurse. says what she wants. and the call la ack- nowledged by the nurse through a ‘filmmaker.

The nurses already ‘have ra-Ieed taco cf the cost~by holding dances.

I-Iolmans, the only iesm to be eliminated so far, has played pretty good bsll all season. A bit weak on the pitching department, (‘there was s law against their shooting with the big repeater rifle), the boys nevertheless played some close contests and ii was their misfort- une that Joe Bernard was absent. when their crucial games came up He might have meant the difference between victory and defeat.

l 0 I

The Blue Box is a strong. well- baianoed team. however. and these boys haven't been having too much trouble chalking up victories this year. They seemed to have less! trouble with their cousins. the Red Sox. than either of the toum teams. and if their mastery over the Thurmcicr-Carscn hall manipulat- ors continues it should be a shoo- in for thflm should they met-t. their rivals at the air station. Still. you never can tell about those play-of! games. “Moose" Carson is back with the Red ‘nose and the team which finished in third position seems io be more formidable-in the play-downs than they were in the regular league. gtrmes.

O

The Rec/LP‘. AII-SIGIB made it very close in the first semi-final game with the Charlottetown Aibegweita. They went down to de- feat by the close score of 5 1o 4. If they can continue to get fairly good service on the mound, they might take the Capital City boys in Summcrside in,the second game and force the series to a third en- counter’. The odds are pretty much against them, however, as they must now take two straight games to win.

I O O

It is to be hoped that Gordie of the game with a charley horas will be alble to play again when the final series begins. MaoKay is probably the most Improved; player in Island baseball circles this year. l-le fin- ished the season with a. batting average of .418 which is potent. willow-wielding in any circuit. He is leading all the base-runners and has not lost any of his speed and agility as s shyrt‘ stop.

On the season's play there is no question but Cecil Powell will have to be crowned "King of the Pitch- ers." His record of seven wins against one loss is nn imposing one which can't be laughed off very easily. The fact that Powell is an even-tempered flinger who does not get angry and upset when thB ump fails to see that his hook has caught the corner is in this favor. In some of. his games he was hii fairly hard and the going was tough with opposing runners riding the

socks a large proportion of the time but Cece just kept chucking them in there in his cool. im-

puturbable wly and never showed‘

the least sign of cracking up under

the strain. That is the mental at-

titude that helps to win ball games. O I O

Hank Landry and Syl Bernard have ended the season with identi- cal records of 47 times at bat, 0 runs. and 14 hits. This gives them a batting average of .290 which virtually puts them among the .300 hitters. This is just about par for Syl but I-Iatlkb average has improved a great deal over the last two years. The improvement is partly due to a change in Landry's stance at the plate. (we hear the "at; Bose" constantly reminding him to keep his "best foot. for- ward"). and partly due to the fact that Bank who spent a lot. of his time at the plate sacrificing the

other fellow along is now taking more free cilia at the ball. 0 I We think it's about time some-

For when this pretty IS-yearold from Annapolis Valley sprawls her- self on the firing mound, compet- itors know they must be at their best to win.

Elsie fired a heavy .303-cslibre rifle in competition‘ for the first time this year. In tho opening match for tyros she scored 48 out of a possible 50. Tyros are rifle- cnen who haven't ranked in the first 150 aggregate scores during the inst 10 D.C.R.A. shoots.

In two other matches counting in the grand a gregate scoring from which mom ers of the Blsley team arc chosen, she had the same score as her father, an expert shot who placed 57th in last year's Bie- ley aggregate.

Elsie mnde her seniors take not- ice irl the Prince Edward Island Pyqvkigirtl shoot this year. She had only shot only two scores prev- ious to attending the three day meet where she tied with two oth- ers for first place in the City of Charlottetown match with a. 92 out of a possible I00 points. One of the 92s was fired by a former Bisley shot. Friends ‘urged her father. 1937 Maritime champion welsh?’- lifter. to take her with ht-m to the 9.042s. shoot. She's the pet of this camp of expert rlflemen and has delighted everyone with her shooting ability and her youthful exuberance. _ J _

"If someone could tell her the wind at the longer 500 and 000 yard fringes, she would get a bull every time." said her ‘father. “She's a re- markable girl who seems to be able to dovanything right the first time."
