I By LEO ARMBRISTER THE MIAMI TIMES—"The People** SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 1956 In-Aronnd The Bahamas By A. H. McKINZItf Lance Corporal John Taylor of the Bahamas Force is enjoying a much needed vacation in the United States. His recent work in the Passport office ha® become quite strenuous in recent years. Mr. Arthur Thompson, son of Mr. and Mrs. Willie Thompson and grandson of Mrs. Maude Thompson, will leave shortly for Codrington College, Barbados, where he will study for the Ang lican Priesthood. He resigned last week as head master of the Gov ernent School at Victoria Point, Andros. He is the second brother to aspire to that office. The Thompson brothers were trained as servers by your scribe, A. H. McKenzie, who has trained a large number of servers in the Bahamas and Turks Island where he resided with Rev. Dr. T. J. Bensley for some time. Mr. Christopher Cooper, son of Canon and Mrs. M. E. Cooper, passed through Nassau on Mon day to fill an important post in Jamiaca, 8.W.1.

Wc feel that the Hurricanes will de light its thousands of rooters with a 14-6 score. FACTS AND FIGURES Bob Lofton, popular manager of the Carver Hotel is curious as to how Cleveland with three 20- game winners, Lemon, Wynn and Score, were not able to beat the Yankees in the American League, who could boast only one 20- game winner in Whitey Ford. Experts will tell yoq that there are varied reasons for such a sit uation. The cause could lay at th< manager’s feet or the team itself it could be lack of determinetion But if you check the batting av erages you will that CleVelam has but one or two batters hittin over .300 wherein the Yankee has over five. Os course Manth has a lot to do with Cleveland be ing in the shape she is. JESCA Plans Membership Campaign The membership committee of the James E.
