Important Game

For Knights And Vics Tonight

With only six games, four for each team. left to be played in the regular schedule of the City Jun- ior Bascball League. tonight's cluh over Memorial Field be- tween the league lending Knights and the seco d place Vics at 5245 will be' an mportant encounter for both squads.

Going into the fray. the Knights hold a two-game edge over their rivals the Vics, and a win tonight could just about put them in the driver's seat come playoff time. while if the Victorlas can come through. they will be in a position that could easily see them at the top of the league at the end of the schedule. '

The boys play aggressive ball at any time. and with these import- ant features nt stake tonight. it should produce one of the keenest junior battles to be witnessed this season.

Big Del and willie -- roommates - are ending base hit style.

in the last six games. Ennis has batted in 18 runs on 11 hits for 26 times at but. including two doub- les, a triple, 'and four home runs, two with the bases loaded.

Willie has made seven for 22. batted in five runs and numbers at homer, two doubles and four sing- les (in his collection. I

"Maybe I'd do better if my pal wasn't knocking the ball out of the lot all me time," willie said.

"He goes up to the plate and asks me: ishail I leave you n coun- le or knock 'em all in?' I tell him to give me a chance. Then he belts the ball over the roof. or he prom- ises: 'Be ready Willie, I'll be on second. Drive me In.' But instead of him being on second. he's trot- ting around the bases with a big grin on his face and the fans yell- mg...

it was an illegal pitch. The ball became dead with the calling of the balk. The proper interpretat- ion of the play is simple. It was a balk that in no way affected the status of the batter but did entitle the runner on first to advance to second. The perfect strike was voided because the calling of the balk immediately suspended all action on the pitch."
