Russell Stars
On Hill for
Beernnen
BY SID KATZNELL

AChSAuB your SUPREMACY OH GL16
diamond the current season.
Studded with players who
would rather play baseball than
eat, the aviators have compiled
a record that any team would
be proud to own. They are lead
ing the Army-Navy League, which
Is considered pretty fast, with
eight victories and no losses.
This team in its last six games
has rolled UP 76 runs against op-
ponentS' 10. Much credit for
Naval Airs sensational brand of
play this season should go to
Johnny Botzka, a pitcher with a
grand assortment Of stuff. He
recently struck out II batters Of
the strong Fort Washington team.
Russell Top Player
Only a short time ago, The
Times sandlot department said
that Everett Russell, the former
Tech Hing athlete, was the most
versatile player on the sandlotS.
Today it is forced'to say it again.
CIV" as Russell is more fami-
liarly known to hundreds Of sand
lot fans, went in the pitchers box
for Heurich Brewers and limited
the Miller Furniture to three very
scattered hits which enabled his
team to win, 7 to 0 yesterday. Rus
sell is the Red" KreSs of the sand
lots. Put him in any position and
he will turn in a cred1table job.
He is no SLOUGH at the plate either.
Invariably he gives the apple a
merry journey.
Thompson, who patrols left field
in fine fashion, and the veteran
Fee Colliere, catcher and captain,
led the offensive for the Brewers
with two hits apiece.
