gregation demolished ass of them.

Donna averaged 23-2 breaxs out Of
each round of IS: Brownsville 22.75.
Mat Skeet shooting Is a game OF
practice and that much improve

Years ago.. before the advent Of
Skeet. there were two gunners In
kansas who ran nip and tuck races
AT tran shooting. Their names were
Decker and Arnold. They Were
amcnp the best marksmen In the
central portion OF the United states.
Arnold. however. managed 70 pest

Both of them moved to the VAL
lev and took up Skeet. Decker now
holds the whip hand. He manages

Two good ball games were on
tap here Sunday when n Ilgers
and Hatters tied up. splitting O
twin bill. Martinez. Halter hurier,
proved himself the local iron man
by serving up his slants throughout
both contests. He allowed but six
hits III each OF the games. The
first one was dropped 81 but he
earned a victory in the second o-S.
Martinez uses a submarine delivery
that Is hard TO connect with solid
Is. His fast n has a way OF
screwing down and in while his
curve drifts around in a tantaliz-
ing manner.
Bullet Joe" Salinas did not win
his game. but his work was out
standing in the second contest. He
poled one over the palings that
came near to winning the second
game. IN addition he spanked out
a double and a single. Clemente

twinkled afield and at the plate.
