BurtonsviIIe Maintains
Lead In Upper County
By DICK FULLER .

Burtonsville maintained it's lead
in the Upper Montgomery County
Baseball League last Sunday by
downing the Rockville Red Sox by
score of 8 to 8.
Kalasankas handcuffed the Red
Sox for six innings, giving up only
three hits and one run but let
down in the last three frames and
allowed six more hits and five
runs. Mosher at short and Hoff-
man at first teamed up to give him
plenty of support whenever the
Red Sox threatened. Rem and
Bond walloped home runs and got
three hits each to lead the win
ners' hitting attack.
Hutchinson started on the mound
for the Red Sox and was charged
with the loss. Jack Freeburger re-
lieved in the seventh and gave up
five hits and four runs. The Red
Sox had the tying run at bat in the
ninth with two out but Terrell was
out stealing and that was the ball
game.
At Gaithersburg the Cardinals
made it four in a row by downing
their arch rivals, the Orioles, 9 to
"a Wash" White pitched his best
game of the year to limit the ORR
oles to six hits. He also struck out

CoIesviIIe Meets First
Defeat AS Potomac Wins

Joe Gibson's Colesville Clouters
suffered their first defeat of the
season on Sunday, August 9th, at
McConihe Field when Doc Nam
mars Potomac Brewers scored two
runs in the seventh to win 5 to A,
while an overflow crowd of some
$50 frenzied fans cheered and
booed themselves hoarse; until
Lefty Jbe Wells struck out Jim
Anderson, Colesville's first-sacker,
to end the contest. By virtue of
this singular achievement, Poto-
macs heady Brewmasters pulled
to within one game of the league

were not sure Doc was right until
the game was lover, and that
healthy color that signifies normal
breathing returned to their cheeks.
The totals showed Potomac with
five runs, ten hits and two errors,
while Colesville made four runs,
seven hits and two errors. Joe
Wells went all the way for Poto-
mac and Bill Giller, who relieved
Mule Norris in the sixth, was tag
ged with the loss. Oddly enough
there was not an earned run scored
in the'ball game,
Playing Wheaton on the Glen

ing 5 to 4 going into the ninth. A
walk and four hits by Mizell, john
son, 0gg and Cubitt produced
three runs as Bill Herbert suffered
his tenth loss of the year. In scor-
ing seven runs, Rockville made Is
hits and five errors. Wheaton
played errorless ball and made five
runs and nine hits. Donald Cubitt
took over the pitching duties in the
eighth when Frank Mabon was
tossed out of the game by Umpire

SOftball Takes
Feminine Turn

Rockville softball fans will be
treated to something not seen at
Welsh Field for several years
when softball takes a feminine
twist on the night of Saturday.
August IA. A doubleheader has
been arranged for that date be-
tween the Garvin's Grill team of
Washington and Raybestos, Con-
necticut State champs. Game time
will be 7:45 P. M. for the opener.
At every game there seems to be
an element in the stands who get
big kick out of booing the UNI
pires on every decision made by
that official. All those fans who
enjoy giving the raspberry to the
jumps will certainly be interested
in the game to be played Monday,
August 16. The Miller Hughes
team of the Rockville Softball
League has scheduled a contest
for that night with the District
Umpires Association team. Just
think of all the fun you can have
yelling at nine umpires at one
time!
The officials of the league would
appreciate any suggestions from
fans to build up more local interest
in the games at Welsh Field.

of every 20 persons annually
many of them several times. 1t still
leads indirectly to thousands of
deaths from pneumonia. influenza.

Illnesses.
But while the common cold re.

as it was more than 2.400 years ago.
a great deal has been learned about
how 10 lessen the chances of getting
cold. Here are some simple sug-
gestions that have stood the test
of time and scientific scrutiny:
1. Keep in good general health by
eating the right foods. getting
fresh air and exercise and plenty
of rest.
2. Wear warm clothing when the
weather is cold-overshoes or rub
bers when it rains or SHOWS.
3. Avoid drafts and sudden tenn.
perature changes.
4. Steer course far to windward
of persons who have colds.
