The remain ing two tallies came in the sec ond. Oakland Sutherlin's scores result in a tie for the league lead If VFW runs into trouble In either of their two remaining games. Two more games face the Vets and they stand a good chance to come through the first half of the City Softball League with at least a tie for first place. The only real stumbling block to an undefeated first half season is the Sutherlin Pastime team. Sutherlin is capable of playing the role of giant killer, for they had pitcher trouble in their two losses. If Sutherlin Hurler Ralph Sanstede can control the ball in the last innings of the remaining games, the Sutherlin hoys might hand the Vets their only defeat of the season when they meet July 16. In the two Sutherlin losses. Sanstede pitched a total of 11 innings, striking out 13 of the opposing batters. But his 14 walks and seven passed balls par tially account for those two losses.
