tit UWn courage


This is the story of a boy
who wouldn't "give up" an
anecdote of courage and skill
that stands unsurpassed in the
annals of local sportdom. Five
years ago Phil Fleming was
told che would never pitch an
other game of baseball" but
that was FIVE years ago, and to-
day Fleming, now curving for
Cumberland's Bi-State Colts,
is graduating the batters with
the same old-time eclat.
This boy who would never pitch
another game of ball has been

as high as II batters a game. He
met his first setback last Sunday
when Midland's champion Injuns
downed him. TO 3. but even in

other glorious conquest.
