Quintan Lopez, who apparently
seemed to have been making an
impressive comeback, failed to
show up Sunday. He was missed
in the Conchs' dugout. Wonder
If the lanky performer decided a
comeback was out of the ques-
ton?
While discussing big league
games during the Conch-Blue
Sox workout, Lon Fernandez,
who claims he has seen some of
the best of the big boys in ac-
ton, compares the batting posi-
ton of William big Bill Gates
with that of the great Rogers
Hornsby. Gates banged out
three hits in that game so that
kinda convinced some of the boys.
This baseball centennial bust
ness is getting real serious in
Key West. Now comes the news
that Arthur Lowe, who once
managed a scrub team about is
years ago, is recognizing or at
tempting to do so-a team using
the same players who worked
with him in years past. The boys
will probably be with you,
"Titina'. so lets get busy.
If this keeps up it will not be
surprising If the popular dia-
mondball battery composed of
Bernie Boy, Oh BoyD Papy and
Earl lJewfishl Adams spring up
with softball team one of these
days. Adams and Papy were
the lads who made up the bat
terry for the Elks in a diamond
ball league some seven years ago.
Some of the boys (Armando Ace
vedo among them) are still trying
to figure out how Adams got by
with such slow ball pitching.
Speaking o. diamondball let
us remind you that Earl Ingra-
ham, that fast catcher who did
duty for The Key West Citizen
team when it won the pennant
and play-off series from Del
Monte seven years ago, is select
ing an all-star club to play Del
Ray Beach July 4th in Key West.
There IS expected to be at least
$50 Del Ray Beach visitors, who
win spend the holiday in this
city, and if negotiations 60
through as the promoters expect
they will, the softbalI fracas will
be played Immediately after the
Key West Conch- Tampa All-Star
conflict.

OBSERVATIONS FROM
THE BLEACHERS
By o. I. MILAN

George Malgrat, slow curve
pitcher for the Pirates, was on
the bench Sunday but his sni-
form took part in the game
against the Trojans and did quite
a piece Of work at first base on
the person of Manuel (Tom
Keenel Acevedo.
That quiet. easy going left
hand outfielder in the person of
julius fDo Dol Villareal is doing
some fine work with his big bat.
The kid boosting his batting
average up to a million and is
easily leading the league in most
extra base hits. We no longer
wonder why Manager Hamlin
keeps the Coca Cola lad in the
lineup.

Wickers Sunday afternoon. each
connected safely with bingles to
left and right field-yet none
reached second base. A knotty
problem for you, Mr.. Fan.
Some day, the Monroe County
League will come across and APP
point scorekeeper to suit Fred
die Carbonell and Arrnando
(Emillito) Davila, of the Pirates,
who are always questioning a
ball that has been hit or fielded
by Armando Acevedo. In last
Sundays contest between the Sox
and Conchs, Acevedo hit a per-
feet bunt along the first base line
and made the base safely, while
Leo Gonzalez advanced to sec
ond. Centerfielder Davila of the
BUGS, who sat in the grand
stands, yelled, That's an error;
first basenan Castellano is not
supposed to field that bunt". It
would be much more appreciated
If players would understand that
no scorekeper holds personal
grudges against any player and
only a conscientious record of
their individual performance is
kept. It would also serve to help
if the majority of the players
would realize that the benefit of
doubt goes to a base runner or
a batter.

MELLOW FIELDS.

One seldom uses this old dirt road
But the fox and the rabbit,
And | sometimes, when summer
comes.
The wide fields on either side are a
sanctuary
For the timothy and hawkweed. They
have not felt
The movers scythe since the las,
nhabitant
OF the hill farm moved out ten years
ago.
The bobolink's song undulates in the
June wind,
And meadowlark calls are plaintive
compartments
To high meadow songs. Buttercups
fringe the Wetter
Places. and form a border of gold
around the bareback,
The swampland steeples, under
which the redwing
Builds Everything stirs; even the
fleabane sWinS
In the heat waves shimmering over
the mellow fields.
