Inning Paves Scoring three runs in the eighth on the strength of Elmer Rice's double and three errors by their opponents Superior-s softball team edged out the Signallers squad last night 4-3 in the second game of the City Softballlieague. It was a tough loss for the Army unit as up till this time they had played errorless ball, were leading 3-1 and behind the effective four hit hurl- ing of Wes Storey seemed to have the game well in hand. Probably not as brilliantly play- ed as the opener between the Bat- tery and Stewart's the game nev- ertheless was close from the opening innings. little heavy hit- ting was displayed by either team, in fact only 10 hits were chalked up all night, the losers garnering six of them, Both hurlers were in good form with Storey having the edge, his opponent Warren being rather un- steady, ‘ssulng 11 free passes to the initial sack. Sig-mailers started off with a bang in the opening frame; Pineau the first man up was out at first; Cox, the next batter, walloped a single through second and went to second as the ball eluded the centre fielder. Storey drew a pass and the stage was set for McLean to double to left, driving both run- ners home. It completed the scor- lnguntil the fourth and again it was the Signallers who came through to add another run to their total. McCabe doubled to start the frame and went to third on an infield out and with two out romped home on a wild pitch by Warren. The score was the last to be made by the-losers and at the time the three run lead looked to be sufficient. Superior-s finally broke the egg in the fifth. Lawlor singled to centre; Mahar was out on strikes and as Weeks was thrown out at first the runner went all the way to third and a minute later Storey uncorked s. wild heave to let him in with his team's first run, Starting the eighth Mahar was Down 7.71s Alleys HOLY NAME CLUB ALLEY CHAJWPIONSHIP Last night on the Holy Name alleys the Holy Name All Stars made it two straight over the Commercial champs by a majority of 37B pins.

Ross, only man ever to hold both the lightweight and welterweight titles at one time, fought with the fury of a. fanatic, and his black shoe-button eyes only burned the brighter as he took Jimmy's heaviest cannonading, and came shuffling in for more, stumbling sometimes, but never hurt enough to stop.
