O'Neill 14; Stuart 2
The Stuart-O’Neill clash here
Sunday, July 11. was an inter
esting ball game until the sev
enth. 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,

ond Baseman Marv Miller con- j
nected, scoring Saindon. Gene

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.

By this time the O'Neill j
base running was amusing the i
crowd, but confusing the
Stuart dan.
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.

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

briefly to pay homage to one of Its all-time
greats. The Bambino made his appearance
in his famous number 3 Yankee uniform,
