In that memorable frame the O’Neill Rockets ex ploded all over the lot, Stuart , fielders began running in cir cles, and 7 runs were chased in The final count: O’Neill 14, Stuart 2. O'Neill led 4-2 going into the lopsided seventh. Third Baseman Bright was the Rocket's first man up. He slapped out a homerun. First Baseman Morrow flied out to second and Big Dick Tom linson. catcher 'or the day, connected on a triple. A centerfield error enabled Pitcher Danny Helmer to reach first and Tomlinson scored Kelly Saindon, shortstop, got on by virtue of an error.

Page 11; Chambers 5 CHAMBERS — The Page baseballers handily disposed of Chambers Sunday, July 11, in the opening round of play in the second-half of the Holt county baseball league race. Page won 11-5 although Cham oers outhit the winners 11-8. It was a listless game for both teams. That die-hard spirit, which has character ized many Chambers teams in other years, was definite ly lacking as Page grabbed the lead and maintained a comfortable margin. A Heiss family reunion de- j prived the winners of the ser vices of regulars Darrel, short stop, and Kenneth, a fielder but the Page club rolled mer rily on. Earl Stevens, of In man, and Dick Cunningham crashed the Page lineup with creditable substitute perform ances. The Page baseballers com plained bitterly about the ne glected baseball diamond, but proceeded to play the game anyway. Only a handful of custom ers, most of them from Page, witnessed the game Darrel Graham. Page pitcher, ilammed out a triple, the best hit of the day.

Having batted around, Bright stepped up and was struck by a pitched ball. Morrow and Tomlinson walked and things were going from bad to worse for the hapless visitors until Helmer struckout, retiring O’ Neill. The Rockets were playing without the services of Milo Gorgen, Dick Huagerford. Joe Conro, and Ted Tom jack. Stuart's Tielke started for the visitors, abandoned the | mound in the third. His sub stitute, Rudolph, gave up in the disasterous seventh and Tielke finished. The O’Neill playground was not wanting for customers. Au tomobiles circled the playing field and there were many parked behind the backstop.

O’Neill TEMPORARY COMEBACK FOR THE BABE . . . Babe Ruth showed up on a baseball dia mond again wearing a uniform and swinging a bat. The event took place in Yankee sta dium before the start of a recent game be tween the New York Yankees and the Cleve land Indians, and the baseball world paused briefly to pay homage to one of Its all-time greats. The Bambino made his appearance in his famous number 3 Yankee uniform, 11 1 thus making him the last Yankee ever to be allowed to wear that particular suit. It has been turned over to Paul S. Kerr, secretary of baseball’s Hall of Fame, to be placed in the Cooperstown, N. Y., museum along with other mementoes of the Babe’s great days in the sport.
