Saunders To
Continue On AS
SOftball Head

Softball managers, meeting at
the office of Recreation Director
Dwight Hunter in City Hall, last
night, requested Neil Saunders,
who rendered his resignation, to
accept their apologies for any
misunderstanding over rules af-
fecting softball play and to re-
consider his resignation, or at
least to serve out his term as
president. ,
Saunders, who was not pres
ent at the meeting, withdrew his
resignation today.
Other business included the
appointment of Cyril Griffin to
serve as umpire along with jim
my Mira, and the re-scheduling
for August 4 of doubleheader,
rained out on July 81.
The managers also agreed to
come out with volunteers to dig
holes for installation of chain
link fence that will be six feet
high. This fence will be situated
in both left and right field, COW
ering the area where the two
base hit rule is now in effect.
A ball driven over the fence
on fly will be only two-base
hit. This has to be done as soft
ball rules state that any fence
that is shorter than 200 feet from
the plate, must carry two-base
label for balls-driven over it. The
two-base fence will be 1877 feet
from the plate.
Present last night were: Dwight
Hunter, A. B. Goehring, A. c.
Sweeting, H. K. Curry, Wayne
Miller, Manuel Alayon, Alfred
Brost, Floyd Villareal, Charles w.
Wells, Linton Camus, P. McCul-
