Manager Mickey Balla did a
farewell to the Smithfield Leafs fol-
lowing a doubleheader which they
split with the Dunn-Erwin Twins
last night, with utility man Joe
,Eonta replacing him temporarily
as acting manager. Balla was hand
ed his unconditional release. The
Leafs took the first game To, while
Dunn-Erwin slipped past them in
the abbreviated nightcap, 4-3.
Finally reaching first division
under the guidance Of jovial Elmer
Bohannon, the Warsaw Red Sox
climbed into fourth place in the
Tobacco State standings last night
to take the place of the Clinton
Blues, who they defeated at War

After taking the All-star game in
stride Tuesday night, the Sanford

basement refugees 8-5. However,
they, failed to lengthen their 10
game lead over the Lumberton
Cubs, who blasted Wilmington, TO.
In the first game at Smithfield,
the Leafs pounded Dutch Schultz
for IL hits in their 7-2 victory over
Dunn Erwin, with George Bern
stein homering in the first inning.
His circuit clout knotted the score
at IL, and the home team built
up a 81 lead before Dunn second
baseman SPRINGFIELD could single
home Schultz in the seventh for
the Twins second run. The Twins
touched Aaron Osofsky for 10 hits.
Winner Chip Pointbriand flew out
to the second baseman in short
centerfield to give Dunn-Erwin
the edge in the fifth inning Of the
second game. Shamrock Dennlng'

ed by two sacrifices, tailed the
winning marker. Zakoski vas the
loser.
Bruce Hedrick pasted a homer IN
the fifth inning with n on base to
wind up a four-run rally which seal
ed a win for Sanford. The Spinners
had tailed twice in the first in
ming, with the Robins going ahead
80 by virtue of a two-run uprising
in the top of the fifth. Sanford ad'
ded two more in the sixth just to
make sure, and the Robins made a
last futile effort with two more in
the seventh. Their other run came
in the third.
Hoyt Clegg racked up his 18th
win against two defeats for San
ford, showing better control in the
smuggling match. Both teams got Il
hits, the Spinners collected theirs
off loser Don Carter.
The Red Sox scored seven Of theil
