Davidso npitched his fourth no-hitter of the season in the second game, and Don Carey barely missed his second no-hitter of the season when Erickson hit a ground single in the third inning. Disappointed by the weak competi tion sent from a well-known softball stronghold, Manager Frank Dell has scheduled two twilight games with the Prison Chiefs for this week. It is still hopeful that the Chiefs will be represented at this year’s state tourney. ■ H E 1st game: 10 8 0 Kelly’s 0 1 3 Springfield ■ H E 2nd game: 1 1 8 0 Kelly’s 0 0 1 Springfield FRANK EDWARDS Says: Now that the conventions are over and the political campaigns are be ginning, remember that the elections this fall will be of lasting importance to America, t othe world, and to you and your family.
