Indianapolis’ Indians The long-awaited honor due 6,672 fans who bought stock in Indians, Inc., to keep baseball in Indianapolis comes this Friday night (July 6). It’s the first of five Stockholder Nights at Victory Field which will be packed with surprises. Others are Aug. 4, 10, 31 and Sept. 4. One of the “extra dividends” the fans who attend Stockholder Nights—whether owning stock or not—is an expense-paid trip for two to all World Series games this year and the scarce choice seats for the game. The more nights fans attend the Stockholder “specials” the more chances of winning the trip. Ticket stubs will be kept from each of the nights and when the award is made all of those stubs will be used to determine the winner. Friday night the Indians meet Wichita at 7:45 p.m. They’ll be at Victory Field through next Sunday (July 8), a single game with Wichita, 2:30. Revamping the Victory Field schedule sets all games at night except the Sunday afternoon tilt. The last day shifted to night i» Wednesday, which was requested by fans. The Indians are building for the future. A baseball training schedule was started this week at Victory Field for seniors or graduates of high school and col-

TAKE YOUR CHOICE! It all depends on you! Would you rather be called chicken hearted one day, or be a cooked goose the day after? Kenneth Stillabower, chairman of First Aid for the Indianapolis Red Cross, believes that being called chicken hearted will prove to be a lot more comfortable. He states that people should not be hesitant about protecting themselves from the sun their first time out. A person may take a kidding from his friends for being timid, but he will return home comfortable while they squirm with the discomfort of sunburn.

The Red Cross First Aid chairman warns that sunburn can be very serious and if a person gets one he should see a doctor. He also says that for lighter sunburns some relief can be obtained from calamine lotion, olive oil, or cocoa butter. Prevention is the best cure though, according to Mr. Stillabower. .“Your first summer exposure to the sun should not be longer than 15 or 20 minutes,” he says. “Then cover yourself up with a light weight and light -colored robe or beach towel or get under a umbrella. Have a covering for your head too. Increase exposure to the sun gradually over a period of weefcs not days.” Mr. Stillabower says that a protective lotion containing free para-amipobenzoic acid will help screen the rays of the sun “but this won’t prevent sunburn if you stay out too long.”
Y.CJ>. Campaign “General community * solicitation teams in the YMCA Community Development Inc., campaign for $2,850,000 'will have their final report meeting July 10,” Earl Schmidt, general chairman of the campaign said this week. This will complete the first phase of the campaign. Plans are now under way by team leaders to enlist stalwarts who will volunteer their time for more intensive work in making call-backs and carrying on solicitation of select prospects. This second phase will continue through July, according to Mr. Schmidt “About two-thirds of the funds

needed are included in contributions already received,”’ Mr. Schmidt said, “the remainder is represented by the prospects who have not yet signified the amount of their pledge.” A statement issued by Joseph O. Waymire, president of the YMCA Community Development Drive Inc., a not-for-profit corporation of 208 civic leaders, sets forth the fact that there has been a fine response from corporations and individuals in all areas. “This generous response has been most encouraging and indicates the willingness of the citizens to unite their endeavors to solve a pressing community problem through the YCD program,” he said. “Solicitation continues in the Business and Industry Groups A, B and C. The committeemen are endeavoring to complete all reports by the middle of July,” Mr. Schmidt said “A generous vote of thanks goes to all the workers in our division, who have done a good job,” said Harry Keller, chairman of the West Division. “All committeemen are urged to complete their calls before July 10.”
Veterans Deserve Better Treatment (Reprinted from Asheville, N. C., Citizen-Times) It’s about time that the picture of the U. S. veteran as a handouthungry tak consumer got a little correcting. Commander J. Addington Wagner of the American Legion has aimed some corrections on the point at no less* person than President Eisenhower. Wagner
says the President’s budget message stressed the dollar cost of veteran benefits, but didn’t refer to the program’s needs. Wagner cites some figures that seem needed for a clearer picture. He says the records show that in 1950, the cost of the veterans program was 13 per cent of the federal budget, but in estimates for 1957 will be only 7.4 per cent. And during the period, the Korean conflict added 3,451,000 veterans to the population. Wagner also points out that 1957 estimates show veterans benefits taking 1.25 per cent of the national income and war veterans making up 13 per cent of the population. By comparison he says that in 1890 the cost of veterans benefits was 1.5 per cent of national income, with vets making up only 2.1 per cent of total'population. He also challenges the President’s statement that nearly half the total population will eventually be entitled to veteran benefits, and cites the fact that, 37 years after World War I, only five per cent of the veterans of that war and their dependents are drawing pensions. The figures do seem to show that war for war, man for man and dollar for dollar, the picture of veterans benefits as a snowballing public burden is out of line. Bui moat important of all is the moral issue. The veterans did servo their country when its very existence was at stake. Not one of them, by any action, started any at thorn wan, but they moat certainly fought and won them. The seal of grateful public approval has long since been stamped firmly on programs to aid sick and aging veterans and to give young veterans aid in making up educational sacrifices brought by military service.
