Kings County Ball Action; Successful Track Meet

By ED CLINTON '

The King‘s County Baseball League has gotten off to what should be another successful season. The first week of play didn’t tell too much. but then the first week rarely ever does. We have only one report of games played last Sunday, and that was the thriller that was played in ardigan. between Cardigan and Souris. with the. locals eklng out a 2-l Victory in twelve innings.

It was a pitcher's duel at. the way. with all three runs being unearned. Lawrence Mac- lntyre pitched for the winners. being as stin as ever giving up only five hits. while walking two and striking out twenty-five batters. Butch Cheverie, tolling for Souris was almost as stin- gy. as he gave up eight hits. walked two and struck out twenty-two.
