The game was only s seren 153mg encounter as Umpire George Francis called the game in the last half of the seventh inn (n; with the locals at bat. The visitors used two pitchers in a.1 effort to stem the tide of has: hits the winners pounded out They started a. young hurler by the name of Lacey who with his slow ball didn't prove much of a puzzle to "Buck" Whltlock six-i company. In the sixth inning Jackson came into the ball game in s, relief roll end retired the locals without having any trouble. “Lefty" MacAleer twirled for the All-Stars and although being (ruched for seven hits he was no". in danger outside the seventh frame. The home team scored two runs in the last. half of the first inn- ing on Charlie Ryan's single, "Buck" Whltlock's long triple to deep right field and Glen Math- “on: base hit.

The last half oi the fifth frame saw the liorne team score three runs that gave them their margin of victory. Three straight singles, e fielders‘ ehoic", a long fly to right fiei’. and two errors accounted for the damage that was done by the All- stars.

But that was all the damage that was going to be done to the home team as MacAieei struck out the next batter to enn the uprising. Catching the eye of the local fans were the fielding displays of the Monarchs’ shortstop and iliiru baseman who between them ao- ocuntcd for e total of thirteen chances.

IIIOW AUGUST 25, 1948 Sport Echoes From Prince Bounty The lent pllfib Kinsmen Juniors sprang e surprise on the league- leeding Legionaires Monday night holding the 1047 miempions to a. n-eii drew. With Alan Stewart back from. summer school and fogging them in for the Fridgen Freshmen, the team looked pretty formidable again, as they had looked in the early days of the regular schedule. Stewart's mound penformence against the Vets was impressive, and but for a temp- orary lack or control on two oc- casions, he might have plastered a shut-out on the mighty Lyle- coached crew. As it was, only one of the trwo runs was earned. O O O Porky Lyle got the old razaberry from the tans in the bleachers when Maclvfurdo, dashing for the piste in the fourth inning. was trapped and tagged out. Lyle’s strategy was quite sound, how- ever, endmight easily have work- ed. With one out, Maclvlurdo rep- resenting the trying ‘run on third, and Joe Bernard, s: dependable e ball player as they come at bat, Ly1e's decision to try the squeeze play was smart baseball. Bernard failed to connect with the pitch and MacMui-do was caught far from a safe anchorage with hostile fielders on all sides. such is baseball. If your stret- works. you're e hero; if it doesn't the fans have a name for that. O O O In the first important game of the year with players bringing elimination closer with each mis- pley, it seemed rather odd that ft was the veteran ball players who seemed a bit jittery on the de- - fence while the kids, or most of "Wm. Plflyfld as if it were just another ball game. The Juniors had only one error during the game while the Legionalres, prec- tically all of whom are veteran performers, had five rniscues chalked against them. O O O Besides being a top-notch beck- stop and pretty good with the hickory too, charlie Deighen has the happy faculty of keeping his teammates in line when the gang get e bit sore at an umpires de- cision and start taking the steps that, if followed long enough, will get them thrown out of the game, You can hear Uhas telling them to ease up on the vocal barrage and start playing ball. and quite often they listen to their level- heeded catcher too. O O O Now that the chips are really down it will be more difficult than ever to keep the players from crsbbing at what they consider off-color decisions on the par-t nit umpires. The erblters will have to be stricter then ever. Umpire Phillips showed no disposition to take any pointed remarks from the players Monday nlgiht. He was ready to throw them out gt the drop of a hint that his eyesight was impaired, and that's the way it should be. No umipirs minds n player questioning one of his de- cisions in e quiet. good-natured way, but if the player starts to get tough about it, that is the Proper time fou- the umip to point to the gxlt end tell the protesting player to get on his bicycle. O I O Rae "Glblets" Arsenault has el. lowed only five hits in the 1m thirteen innings he has pitched. This is Pretty fair ninsine for a guy who was simposed to be all through pitching two years ago. Rae's performances this year must be pretty nearly ea good as m; mound work some years sgo when he was in his prime. We think tihat Arsensult is olng,to be a pretty handy felow to have around when the Charlottetown- Summerside intermediate series gets under way.

Aug. M — (AP) Welter Johnson, Washington Senators’ immortal righthander, used to chuckle every time Bebe Ruth's slugging feats were re- called. "Nobody can deny that the Babe was the greatest home-run hitter of them all," Sir Welter would soy. "But if the big guy hadn't pitched from the mound to out- field, he would have become the greatest lefthanded pitcher of them all." In the l1 years Johnson boiled for the Senators. he worked against hundreds of pitchers, but he el- waye maintained the Babe was the toughest pitcher for him to beat. “I took me three years before I finally was able to beat him," Johnson once related, "and 1 nod to pitch s shutout to do it." Ruth end the big train hooked up in eight pitching duels, the Babe winning six and Johnson two. Johnson was still in his prime too, from 1914 through 1919, Ruth's big league pitching years. John- son won 145 games, an average of 24 e season. So he must have been good. Nearly all cf the duels between the Babe and Johnson were thrill- ers. Three of them ended with the score 1-0, and Ruth won all three. Another time Ruth beat Johnson 2-1. once Ruth won 4-3 and once 5-1. Johnson's first triumph over Ruth came on Oct. 3, 1917, 3% years after Ruth Joined the Red S-ox. Johnson shut out Ruth 6-0, striking out seven Red Sox. Johnson also won their last en- counter 4-3, in 10 innings, pitch- ing only the final frame, in re- lief’. Paris Wins By T .K.0. ln_ 7th GLACE BAY, N. 5..
