Sport Echoes From" Prince county '

it was beginning to look as if Ken Walker, HoLman's catcher, had a season'sg return ticket from dug-out to home plate but since the last three games Ken is singing: "There's Been A Change In Me". He's taking the long trip home now by way of first. second and third base. Ken has hit a .556 clip in those three games, getting 5 hits in 9 trips. including two singles, two dou- bles and a most prodigious home run. Holman's management put
