keen sense of anticipation, got the ball away quickly. His life-time major league batting average was .265, but he was always well up in runs-batted-in. He was a right-hand batter, not much for distance, but moved up in a clutch. He was a grand competitor. He was not overly fast, yet an excellent base-runner. Scott's was a quiet type of aggressiveness. He would fight for a decision or protest one vigorously, but knew when to stop talking to an umpire.

SCOTT WAS a steadying influence on a ball club, the balance wheel, a whiz at pulling a pitcher together. Carl Mays recalls his first world series appearance, and how Scott relieved the pressure when the submarine slinger relieved Ernie Shore ‘of the Red Sox after Brooklyn had scored five runs to cut his side's lead to one. The bases were loaded and there was one out. Scott told Mays the first batter never got a hit in his life and that the second one was worse.

Some have paid out in as few as four years, and many have repaid from a fourth to a half or more of their 40-year loans already.” During the past year, Mr. Beck said, 554 tenant farmers in the region started to operate their own farms through tenant purchase loans.

certified Indiana hybrids produced an average yield of 109.7 bushels per acre, while the growers of yellow ‘open pollinated corn averaged only 936 bushels per acre. The better yields produced by hybrids, ability to stand up, suitability for mechanical husking, and tolerance to the corn borer are among the factors favoring their use as compared to open pollinated varieties. Almost two-thirds of all five-acre corn club members reporting in 1942 used a soil conserving crop, such as clover, alfalfa, or pasture, to pre= cede corn. Yields following these crops were higher in all cases than those following corn, small grains, or soybeans.
