The final count gave River
Pointe rs to three for the St.
Clair Shores club.
Pounding out ID hits, the

fore the Prydemen got their
first score, a home run by
Basil Williams. They counted
twice in the first frame, three
times in the second, third and
fourth, then kept increasing the
outputof counters with four in
the fifth, five in the sixth and
six in the seventh. Four of the
Bar-B-Q hits went for triples.
Al Wegner's single, two walks
and a passed ball paved the
way for the first two River
Polnte runs and Tommy o.
Brien'ttriple followed singles oy
Pete Robertson, Wesley Maria
and Wegner for the trio of Sec
ond-inning scores. Singles by
Harold Urmy, Les Hover and
Bernie DeSmith, coupled with
an error accounted for the next
three Pointer tallies and the
winners pushed another trio OF
men around without benefit of a
hit in the fourth.

The fifth for River Pointe saw
an error, Bill Purcell's two-bag-
ger, a base on balls and a triple

dence. however, that effective count
er measures would be devised.
Conjecture Mounts.
Off1cials were wondering today
whether the Germans were forced to
launch the radio controlled raids on
England prematurely for fear that
bases would be detected and de-
stroyed, or whether this is just the
start of steadily mounting use of
the new raiding planes. Evidently
it was pointed out, the Germans did
not start casually, as reports from
London speak of sWarms of planes
coming in continuous streams.
1t was doubted, however, that the
Germans can produce these robot
planes in such number as to COM
pete with or even approach the
heavy Allied bombing attacks over
Europe. A great deal of their ef-
fective use depends, it was said, on
their range.
Observers admitted the test raid
last Tuesday and last nights raid
on London furnished an answer to
a mystery that has caused much
concerned to the Allied High Com
mand. They disclosed that, despite
rumors to the contrary, there had
been no use to date of these robot
planes against the invasion forces
in France.
The rocket planes sent against
London and Southern England, it
was explained, apparently are an
entirely different type from the
rocket gliders used by the Germans
in the early stages of the Italian
campaign and directed mainly
against ship targets.
