I Small Margin 01 Profit? Although you, the people of Decatur, live in the city and we are farm folk, our problems are very similar. In these days of high cost, there just isn’t much left after all the bills have, been paid. Indeed, many of us are lucky if there is enough £o pay the bills. Today’s farmer competes on the open market like everyone else, and the cost of producing crops, raising hogs, wholesaling milk, all of these have to be kept to minimum if we fijd Xbuyer and still show a profit on the year’s operations. One of the ways we have found to keep cost down is with electricity. WE can get a lot of work done on a few kilowatt hours, but the electricity has to be “there” when we want it, and in recent years this often has not been the case. And the charges for electricity have to be reasonable, but here again we feel that this is not the case. . ■> / <JSince we can’t “help” ourselves and vote to sell City Light in the election April 14, lend a neighbor a helping hand and vote, please, to SELL, vote for lower rates for the farmer, vote for better service j for the farmer, vote to SELL.

Orioles Have Top Record In Spring Gaines By TIM MORIARTY '• United Preu International Maytoe this is the year the Baltimore Orioles’ young movement will pay off at least with a first division berth. Picked to finish sixth in the American League race, Paul Richards’ upstarts wound up with the best record among all major league teams in the spring exhibition standings. The training season doesn’t officially end until today but the Orioles clinched the combined Grape-fruit-Cactus League champginship Tuesday by downing the Philadelphia Phillies, 54, with the help of a grand-slam homer by Gus Triandos. The Orioles, who open the American League season Thursday at Washington, completed their spring tuneups with 16 victories in 24 outings for a .667 percentage. Best In NL The Los Angeles Dodgers can wind up with th’ best training record among National League teams by beating the Milwaukee Braves tonight in their final prep at Jacksonville. Fla. They dropped a 5-4 verdict to the Braves in the same city Tuesday night and now have a 12-9 spring record against major league opposition. Perhaps the biggest flops of the exhibition season were the New York Yankees and the Braves—last year’s World Series rivals. Going into today'-s final tuneups the Yankees had a 14-12 record and the Braves were stumbling along with a 10-15 mark. Only 2.018 fans turned out at Baltimore to watch the Orioles turn back the Phillies with a fiverun burst off Ruben Gomez in the first inning. Successive singles by Willie Tasby, Bob Boyd, Bobby Avila and Gene Woodling produced the first run, then Triandos cleaned the bases with a homer into the left-fieldblea chers. Mos ton Blows Chance Hank Aaron's two-run single with the bases loaded in the ninth inning enabled the Braves to down the Dodgers before an overflow crowd of 12,203 a® Jackson-
