South Delivers the Goods
II South had started the game for
the AIl-Stars the story might have
been different. During the seven In
nings that he dictated on the mound,
he held the Wreckers close. His pc.
culiar delivery baffled the Twenty
fifth batters, as was attested by his
strikeout record. The tall slab artist
pitched excellent ball and deserves
much credit for holding the smuggling
infantrymen to a single tally in seven
frames.
Jackson, Swan, Moriyama and Ayau
are every bit as fast a. the Wrecker
infeld. With practise this combine
tion should develop into one Of the
speediest infelds ever seen in the Isl.

That interest in baseball has been
fully revived was shown yesterday by
the large crowd that packed the grand
stand and both bleachers.
