“What baseball manager has remained with the same club the

“ fongest?”.-X, K. Burke, Edmonton, Alta,

While Walter Alston currently is working on his 20th

“r\consecutive one-year managerial contract with Los Angeles

Dodgers he's got a long way to go to catch up to the immortal

Connie Mack.

“Mr. Baseball” served as manager of the old Philadelphia Athletics from 1901-1950—fifty years. Of course, the fact that he served as owner and president of the club for several of thore years might have had a bearing on his longevity as field manager.

“How many ‘perfect’ games have been pitched in major league baseball history?”-L. Y. Zahn, Dalhousie, N.S,

To-date, 11 such performances have been written into the record books. The first contest in which a pitcher faced just 27 batters without one reaching base was recorded June 12, 1880, by

The fabled Cy Young of Boston was next in the perfection parade with a victory over Philadelphia May 5, 1904. Addie Joss of Cleveland followed Oct. 2, 1908, against Chicago. Boston's Ernie Shore made the grade June 23, 1917, against Washington as he relieved starter Babe Ruth who had walked the leadoff batter and been ejected for disputing the call, The runner was wiped out attempting to steal and Shore never permitted another to reach

first.

Chicago's Charlie Robertson was next, stifling Detroit April 80, 1922, Don Larsen made World Series history for the New York Yankees with a perfect performance against Brooklyn Oct. 8, 1956,

* and Pittsburgh's Harvey Haddix has the dubious distinction of having hurled 12 perfect innings only to lose 1-0 to Milwaukee Braves in the 13th, May 26, 1959.

Philadelphia's Jim Bunning shackled New York Mets in 1964 and southpaw Sandy Koufax of Los Angeles turned the trick against Chicago Cubs in 1965. Latest to join the select circle was Oakland’s Jim “Catfish” Hunter, May 8, 1968 against Minnesota.

Figure Skaters

Arranging an ico schedule, skating fees and plans for the Kootenay Figure Skating Championships to be held Nov. 24 and 26 were all matters dealt with at the recent meeting of Castlegar Figure Skating Club.

Have You Tried Prayer Lately?

~ You heard about the two fellows who were “trapped in a sub- marine on. the bottom .of the Atlantic in 1,400 feel of water?

Did you also hear that the two men had been rescued and were) sipping champagne in Cork? Did you hear that their commander pronounced them fit to play football after the ordeal?

Now you may have heard all these things, but you didn’t hecr this. Prayer played a part in that deliverance. It may have been an infinitesimal part, but it was a part. How do I know? Because when I heard of the two men who were doomed apart. from a i

The exciting thing about the prayer so far as 1 was concerned is that I sensed the answer right away. They would be rescued and they would be jubilant.

_ Cautiously, I kept it all to myself until the news the next night. Bruce Rogers (or was it George Finstad?) told it all. The men had been rescued and were celebrating in Ireland. It was a nice feeling. The prayer was answered. Even the details corresponded.

I'm still not aspiring to imitate Jeane Dixon. But I am positive of one thing. God answers. the prayer of faith. Moreover, just about everyone prays,
