"'"We'll win our 1949 pennant right here at Ebbets Field." said Burt Shotton just before he sent his men out on the field to open the season. The genial boss of the Brooks thinks that, home surroundings, with the most loyal fans in baseball urg-j ing them on, should be conduc-J ive to an outstanding Dodger record at home this year. It wasn't so in 1948, for some' strange reason that still puz zles Shotton. "We won tne pen- ( ant on the road last year, he says "We won 48 games on fore Urn fields more man any. i other club in the league. Bu; when we came home to Ebbets Field, we blew the flag; we won I only 30 and lo.st 41 in our own back yard." So the Shotton platform WIN IT AT HOME takes on special significance as his team makes plans fur the June home stay against the four clubs from the wet well no the Ritnn Brave. Four big night games one with the champions and one each with the Cards, Pir-this ates and Reds highlight portion of ttie schedule. It's no wander that Shotton wants to make this an outstanding "home" club. Last year's sorry Ebbets Field rec- ord was quite a comedown from 1947. when the Brooks hit .C75 pace (52 won. 25 lo.st I at home as they sped to a flag. That year they really won it at homo, because their road record was surpassed by the Cardinals. The Dodgers got off to a fast start in their first home stand against the Western clubs in May, winning six and losing three. Shotton wants to keep them moving at this pace in front of the home fans. ... ir4. or t- edfteraxor. A f PRINCE RUPERT BOWLING ALLEY OPEN DAILY FROM 3:30 P.M. TO 11 P.M.

The beaver provides both treaty and non-treaty Indians with an annual income ranging from $700 to $2,000 on government and Hudson's Bay Co. preserves in the James Bay area. To the native who depends Solely on trapping, the beaver is the backbone of his 'existence. The other animals he traps are merely side lines. The beaver population was almost' wiped out in the early 1900's but now the population is increasing.
