Well, Rockville annexed two more
ball games over the week end by dint
of some fancy hitting with men on in
the twilight stages. Although the play
was anything but errorless, the fans
always appreciate home runs, espec-
cially when the Apply whacks mean
breaking up contest apparently lost.
With warm weather coming on and
Ralph Ruble and Brother Love slated
to boost the lineup, there is no rea-
son why Rockville should not go far
this season. There may have to be
some shifting around in the infield-
but there will be plenty of reserve
material.
