Vance recovered his batting eye and
rammed out two hits yesterday, one
of them a double. He was robbed of
third hit by a sensational one-hand-
ed stop over third base in the fourth
inning by Breen, with the bags load
ed. The drive would have surely gone
for two bases and scored two runs.
Two of Clyde McBrides hits drove

the Islanders.
Tight fielding would have retired
Rockford without a run in the first

Billy Neal is proving his worth in
