if One of the greatest accomplishments of civilization has been the remarkable progress made in increasing the average life expectancy. In the Middle Ages the average life span was twenty years. In the seventeenth century it had advanced to twenty-five years. Through the years there has been a steady increase until, today, the life expectancy is sixty-three years for men and sixty-six for women. Authorities agree that the most productive years of life lie between the ages of forty and sixty. Medicine and the allied sciences have thus been indirectly responsible for all progress. Good minds that had sickened and died before reaching their zenith now live to apply the judgment and experience of maturity. As pharmacists, we are proud of our fuoctioo in the distribution of lifesaving medical supplies.

SOFTBALL NOTES No doubt one of the outstanding attractions of the season will be played Monday night at 7:45 p. m. at Robe Ann Park. On this date the unpredictable IHooigans meet the unknown Cannon Clowns. Already the Hooligans have displayed many of their wares/in the reserve base running of Tom Goldsbcrry the infield shift of the outfield, the outstanding fielding of Tom Goldsbcrry, the infield fielding of outfielders Charlie Bridges and Maurice Hurst who rest on Coke boxes and read papers while play progresses. Ben Cannon promises a real show from his Clowns and the Hooligans arc tinkering with the idea of appearing In blackfaces and padding so the opposing pitcher can't determine the batting powers of famous hitters such as Evan Crawley and Joe Ellis.

The outstanding hit of the week was the one Billy Brown made against Mt. Meridian, with the score 2 all in the 6th inning Billy stepped to the plate and smashed a home run down the left field foul line to win the game.

In the fast league players hitting a home run are awarded a free cleaning and pressing job on a suit of clothes by White Cleaners. Bob Hyers and Chick Stites of the Moose; Lcs. Abbott of Webb Studebekcr and Billy Brown of the High School, all won this prize during th c final week of Play.

Darwin Duncan of the High School team is off to a good start. Being only a junior High student he plays in the fast league and has rightfully won his position. Watch him, he is a comer.

The American League will be strengthened next week by the return of Firman Grimes to his catching position.

Nineteen Senators Sponsor Joint Seaway Resolution Special to Central Press

TJPTARHINGTON—Four significant factors confronting Canadians W and Americans as the St. Lawrence seaway and power project again moves toward action in Congress may result in approval of this momentous and long-discussed project in the river that connerts the Atlantic ocean with the heartland of North America. Most Canadians and an increasing number of Americans realize that these factors are extremely important to the peoples of both

nations:

1— Increasing power shortages in Ontario and New York State have blasted many people out of their apathy, made them realize the necessity for action, and awakefied them to the absurdity of allowing 12.600.000,000 kilowatt-hours of potential electric energy to dash unharnessed across the Long Sault rapids of the St. Lawrence. 2— Dwindling iron ore resources in the Lake Superior Mesabi range, which experts predict may be exhausted in a few years, make steel workers, large industrial interests, and numerous forwardlooking individuals realize the great Importance of iron ore discoveries being developed in Quebec and Labrador. These are said to be richer than the Mesabi range Vast quantities of ore could be brought to Great Lakes industrial areas over the St Lawrence river and its connecting canals.

3— Unprecedented consumption of oil resources In the United States makes Inevitable their ultimate exhaustion. Rich oil dlscoverica in Alberta therefore take on a new importance. Canadians already arc planning pipelines eastward from the oil fields Great Lakes barges could carry this oil to industrial areas of both nations. 4— Canadian-United States defense problems make responsible military leaders on both sides of the border urge the completion of the St. Lawrence project to permit ocean-going ships to penetrate 2,000 miles Into North America s heartland, where ship-building industries could operate close to resources and labor, and removed

from possible coastal attacks by an enemy.

Five House joint resolutions to approve the St. Lawrence agreement between the United States and Canada have been introduced in the current session of Congress. All were referred to the com-

mittee on public works.

Senator Scott W Lucas ID), Illinois, has explained that his Senate joint resolution, which 19 senators' co-sponsored, proposes to authorize the St. Lawrence seaway and power project in the same terms as the resolution whi-h Senator Arthur H. Vandenberg and 15 other senators reported in 1947 The present joint resolution, read"twice and referred to the committee on foreign affairs, provides for establishing the St. Lawrence project on a self-supporting, self-liquidating basis. It authorizes the construction of this nation's share of the St. Lawrence project. This is mostly in the International rapids section of the river It also requires dredging to make 27foot channels connecting the Great Lakes It ap- Agreement proves, with specified exceptions, the agreement reached by Canada and the United States on March Conooa 19, 1941. Required Agreement by Canada to the self-liquidating principle Is required. The resolution authorizes the president to negotiate with Canada fair and equitable tolls, and to name a St. Lawrence Advisory commission to co-operate with Canadian!, hold hearings and make recommendations. There appears no aerious opposition to the St. Lawrence project in Canada. People in Iroquois, the Ontario town that will be flooded off the map by the dams down the river, have aald they are willing to forego sentiment for progress and View sources of electric power.
