BRONC RALLY
BEATS LA FERIA
Especial to The Herald)

LA FERIA. July 2l.-With two
down in the ninth inning and the
score tied gall, the Brownsville
BroncS staged a strong rally TO
punch over four runs, beating the
La Feria Boosters CD in an exciting
Valley league game here Sunday.
The teams had waged a nip-and-
tuck battle all the way and B. van
Pelt had the Brownsville batters on
his hip up until the last out.
In the ninth frame, Rocha, the
first man up, flied out TO third
base. Ramos got first when hit by
the pitcher. Lesser struck out. Sal
mas singled and Chapa followed
him with a double. King got n at
error by the pitcher. Then Librado
Perez cleaned up with a singing
single. Wood flew out to second
base to end the fray.
Perez, playing right field. and
Lesser, on third. made sensational
catches. Perez travelled far back to
take a hot drive over his shoulder
in the ninth inning. Lesser also
sprinted backward tc sack up a deep
pop fly that II didn't seem possible
for him to get.
Chapa hurled good ball and his
war club had much 10 do with the
victory. B. Van Pelt, one Of the best
curve ball pitchers IN the league
hurled great ball until he weakened
in the ninth frame.
Next Sunday the Broncs take on
San Benito at Brownsville.

BY GAYLE TALBOT JR.
Associated Press Sports Writer

DALLAS, July 19.-P-Profes-
scr Derril Pratt, regarded as one
OF the shrewdest, most successful
managers the Texas League has
known. Notwithstanding he has
never won a ~pennant, will have an
opportunity 70 shift his allegiance
after the current season.
Whether the veteran second
baseman will hearken to the Of
fers of other league club owners
or will prefer 70 stick with his
first managerial love. the Waco
Cubs. remains 10 be seen. His six
year term will be up in September.
1t is known that at least one Tex
as League owner would like 20 get
Pratt'S name on a contract. Waco
undoubtedly will try 70 hold him.
without Pratt at the helm, there
is a grave doubt that Waco would
have retained its Class A franchise
for six years. His uncanny judge
ment OF young players and his
ability to whip them into big league
timber has kept a club in a city
where fan support has at times
been almsot negligible. Not only
has Waco been favored with a
colorful. hustling ball club
for six years. but the treasury
actually has shown a profit each
and every season.

going up al the close OF the season.
Not only has Pratt displayed I'M

but he has been willing all along
to get in there himself and hustle
when II was necessary. He played
q jam-up second base for several
years. leading the league In batting
one year. and did not really re-
move himself from the active list
until last season. He went III and
pitched an inning against the Dali
