Cardinals Are Certain To Take 1942 Softball Championship Braves Slash Failing Dodgers In One-Sided Affair Yesterday STANDINGS W L Pet. Cardinals 7 3 .700 Dodgers 6 6 .500 Martins 5 6 .455 Braves 4 7 364 SCHEDULE Friday, August 21st Braves vs. Cardinals Monday, August 24th. Cardinals vs. Martins. At a meeting of representatives of the four clubs here yesterday, it was decided that a play-off be held at the conclusion of the schedule, which is due to be completed next Monday, there being only two more games to be played. Instead of all four teams playing individually it was agreed that play ers on the teams finishing first and fourth and combine and play a team composed of second and third place team players. A best three out of five game series will be played, the first game to be next Wednesday, August 26th. at 6:30 p. m. This step is being taken this year on account of recent difficulty of clubs to put a full team on the field, and with the opening of the tobacco market this stiuation is expected to be worse Braves 12, Dodgers 6 With each team having only eight men, the Braves won over the Dodg ers here yesterday, as Bud Crockett pitched and batted his mates to a win. The rotund chunker was the batting star of the game and prob ably the season, as he hit two dou bles and 3 singles in five, times at bat, to drive in 5 runs. Dinky Cher ry, of the Dodgers, was next with four singles in five trips. With the score knotted at 2-all after one inning, the Braves sent 13 men to bat in the second to score nine runs on 7 hits and 2 errors, to take a 11-2 lead which was too big a lead for the losers to overcome.

(Central I'rrsa) diet Tomato juice is an excellent source of vitamin C. Tomato juice is easy to can. (1) To preserve the natural flavor and color, use knives of stainless steel and avoid utensils of copper, brass and iron. (2) Use fully ripe tomatoes. (3) Wash, remove core, and cut into small pieces. (4) Precook tomatoes until soft. Do not boil. (5) Put softened tomatoes through a sieve to remove seeds. (6) Reheat the juice to boiling point (7);'At the simmering [joint, add one teaspoon of salt for each quart of juice. (8) Pour juice into sterilized con tainers (brim full) and process for five minutes. Do not have one bit of air space in your jar. During the hot summer days there is nothing more refreshing than a tall glass of ice-cold, thirst quench ing lemonade. Now added to that, the food experts say lemon juice is very rich in Vitamin C that is so import ant for good health. A recent talk by Dr. D. B Milam, of the State Board of Health, em phasized the fact that one of the greatest food needs of the people of North Carolina is Vitamin C. This vitamin cannot he stored in the body as some other foods, but should be supplied in the diet every day. If you are interested in a simple sauce to serve with fish, try mixing lemon juice with melted butter and chopped parsley. It is good on cook ed carrots, too. And here's another suggestion; Squeeze lemon juice ov er prunes, bananas, or a slice of melon. It tones up the natural good flavor. But the lemon has other kitchen uses besides flavoring. To hold the "fluff" of an omelet, add a half-tea spoon of lemon juice to the egg whites after you have them pretty well beaten up. When you're making jelly from fruits high in pectin but low in acid, add one tablespoon of lemon juice to a cup of fruit juice. When buying lemons select the ones with fine-tectured skin. And they should be heavy for their size. Avoid lemons that are soft or spongy to the touch. ? To conserve more rubber the WPB has provided more stringent speci fications which will limit the amount of rubber available for a long list of civilian products. The domestjjr^wheat supply for 1942-43 marketing year is indicated at 1,524,000,000 bushels, or around 190,000,000 bushels above the rec ord 1,331,000,000 bushels in 1941-42. Domestic consumer demand for farm products will continue to rise during the next few months, predict economists of the U. S.
