Italians d. W n
Jewish AII-Star
Nine, 9 to8
By SID KATZNELL

There's joy in Washington's Lit
tie Italy today.
Last night under the flood lights
at Griffith Stadium. the Italian
overcame a five-run def
icit to defeat a fighting Jewish
all-star team, 9 to 8, in nine innings
of crazy baseball. The Italians
owe their victory to the brilliant
relief pitching of Joe Freschi, an
all-around athlete if there is one,
and to the erratic hurting of the
Jewish pitchers in the last two
frames.
Going into the seventh inning
the game appeared to be in the
bag for the Hebrews, what with the
score 8 to 3 in their favor and
Arnold Lefty" Heft, 18-year-old
wonder moundsman, pitc hin G
splendidly. Behold! Heft lost his
control and walked three straight
Italians.
Rush In Silverman
Managers Tank" Nitowitz and
Phil Sykes, rushed William Silver
man to the rescue. Considering
the situation he had to face,
Silverman came through in pretty
good style this inning. He allowed
two runs to score when he walked
a man and hit one, but he man
aged to strike out two and forced
the other to pop out. Two runs
were scored.
However. Silverman lost his
control completely in the eighth
inning and had to give away to
the veteran Ellis Goodman, who
also left his control home or some
place. Before the inning was over
the Italians had registered four
runs to give them a 9-to-8 lead
which was enough to win the
game.
Lefty" Rowles pitched the
ninth frame for the Jews and set
the Italians down without a hit.
BarOni Pitches Well
Frank Baroni, the "Shanty"
Hogan of the SandlotS, started on
the hill for the winners and hurled
fine ball, allowing five hits in five
innings. He went out of the box
at the completion of five innings
with the score to against.
Manager Eddie Cinotti took him
out of the box to give Frank Di-
Nenna a chance to display his
wares. His wares were we'll liked
by the Jews. They slapped five
runs off his shoots in the lone
inning he pitched. Freschi then
stepped over from first base, where
he was playing a bang-up game,
and stopped the Hebrews dead,
permitting only a bingle in the
last three innings.
Harry Basin, Ed LisenSky and
Matte Miller shone brilliantly for
the losers. BasSin led both teams
in hitting with two triples and a
single, besides contributing the
best catch of the evening. Playing
deep left field, Basin came in fast
to make a one-handed catch at his
shoetops of Joe Freschi's looper in
the fourth inning. 1t was a spec
tacular catch. Lisensky and Miller

Sargent said. Three of the six maps, Re- villagigedo Island, Wrangell and vicinity, and Sumner Strait and vicinity, are in relief, but two of the others, Prince of Wales Island, and Chichagof- -Baranof Island, are entirely planemetric, or without relief detail About one half of the latest map of Admiralty Island shows topographic relief, he said, and about one more season after this one will be required to com- plete the topographic work, at which time another map will be compiled.
