In the fourth Wood doubled and . then Manning hit one ticketed for a homer, but a flashing right fielder, Dester, roamed over and picked it off.

Still cutting the comers, with all k I n d s of stuff, but not designed to strike the boys out, just force them to ground out. George Scales will be able to tell his grandchildren about get ting a two-bagger oft Alexander, but none of the other boys will have so much to relate. If that pesky right fielder had 't been so speedy, Ken Manning would have been able to say he got a home run in the same game that he batted against Alexander. But it Just couldn't be that way. Johnny Beck looked as na tural as life out there, and in view of the batting prowess of the Davidites, it's safe to say he'll be a big help in any State league games he gets involved in.

'Squeak' Wilson didn't do so badly either, to hold them hitless for an Inning. The House of David gang. Incidentally, complimented the Salem dab on being's hustling gang of youngsters, and "Doc" Tally complained there were no soft spots in the batting order. en COLLECT 19 ITS. DEFEAT K ItOm-m ?
