5-2 victory for Warm Spri ngs women’s team
Bravettes. At times there were
some slump periods but the
team managed to hold together
to keep up the momentum to go
on to beat the determined
Martin Marietta team of The
Dalles.
The Bravettes are playing in
the Dalles league belonging to
the A.S.A. (American Softball
Association), in the Class “B”
catagory. Their games are
scheduled for W ednesday
evenings and on Saturday’s.
Here, recently in practice
sessions, the Bravettes have
b een w o rk in g on th e ir
w eaknesses especially on
defense where the opponents
were able to score on them
repeatedly. With the defense
stiffening up the Bravettes still
need some work, on their
batting practices. W-hat is
lacking is some good hard
pitching for practice similar to
game situations. One other
weak point for the Bravettes is
during travel their bench is very
weak, many regular? are unable
to travel Which makes the
w eakness fo r the team .
Otherwise the team is coming
along at a good rate.
The schedule for the team is
during the league are on
W e d n e s d a y n ig h ts a n d
-S atu rd ay afternoons. The
Saturday games are usually
their home games, and all home
games are played behind the
Community Center.

Warm Springs ball field was
the setting for a league game
between The Dalles Martin
Marietta and the Bravettes
softball teams.
Despite the hot weather the
Warm Springs girls kept their
cool and went on to pin a 5-2
loss on their opponents.
The pitching, was one of the
stronger points the Bravettes
displayed by striking out ten of
the opponents batters.
Other than good pitching, a
complete team effort is what
really made the difference,
.everyone working together,
‘putting a strong defense along
with a lot of hustle and a desire
to win proved valuable for the
