Montgomery
County League
BE- Sam DGiOs0n

Good weather permitted the COM
rletion of all games scheduled on
Sunday, June 18th, in the Mont
gomery County Baseball League
and good pitching by Robert
Brother" Love permitted Coles
vile to run their streak of success
sive victories to six by drubbing
Sandy Spring 6 to /. In other
games, Rockville beat Bethesda z
to 2 while. Potomac nosed out
Wheaton Z to 6.
Playing at Sandy Spring the
Colesville team made six runs, IL
hits, and three errors, while Broth
er Love held Sandy Spring to one
run and two hits. Sandy Spring
made but one error and Joe Powell
did all the pitching. Love struck out
ten men and would have had shut
out except for two cheap hits in
the sixth which occurred when An
derson lost Peters pop fly in the
sun and He'll singled a slow roller
over shortstop on a hit-and-run
play that drew John Bonifant out
of position. John Bonifant, how
ever, was the hitting star of the
day by virtue of tremendous home
runs in the first and seventh inn
ings. On both occasions Roscoe
Whip was on base. Manager Joe
Gibson robbed Beall, Sandy Spring
thirdbaseman, of homer in the
ninth when he snagged a hard
liner that was just about ready to
clear the centerfield fence.
Going into the ninth Wheaton
had a 6 to a lead over Potomac,
but at this point misfortune arose
to strike down the fine pitching
effort of Bill Herbert as two
Wheaton errors enabled Potomac
ia. win the game Z to G. Potomac
used three pitchers, Joe Freschi,
Newman Shifllett and Joe Wells
and collected 13 hits while making
three errors. Bill Herbert pitched
the entire game for Wheaton as
his mates produced II hits and
five errors. The outstanding hit
ter was Ashton, Wheaton's center
fielder, who got two singles and
homered in the sixth with none on.
At Rockville no less a talent
scout than Mike Martin, Chief of
Clark Griffith's Gestapo, came to
Welsh Field to get a line on Be-
thesda's lefthander, one Mr..
Charles Pugh. Among the per-
formances noted by Mr.. Martin
were Larry Schneider's fifth inn
ing homer off Pugh and Paul
Hoettinger's fine pitching in hold
ing Bethesda to two runs and sew
en- hits, while Rockville made seven
runs and nine hits off Witness,
Bort and Pugh. In short, Mike
Martin was not impressed as Be-
thesda excelled in only two re-
spects. They made twice as many
errors and twice as many home
runs. Huntington homered in the
sixth and Pugh poled one out of
the park in the eighth. AS usual
the most polished all-around ball
player on the field was Rockville's
first baseman, Larry Schneider,
who would be a fine big league
prospect except for the fact that
he is beyond the age at which big

BASEBALL
IN THE COUNTY
Upper Montgomery
County League

1
Burtonsville and the Rockville
Red Sox are still tied for first in
the Upper Montgomery County
Baseball League after last Sun
days games.
Burtonsville came out on top in
their game with Potomac by a
score of 8 to 5. The winning pitch
err was Kalasankas who gave up
IL hits, issued five walks and
struck out seven to rack up his
fourth league win of the year.
Suddreth was the loser giving up
Ii hits, two walks and striking out
four.
Burtonsville jumped on Sud-
dreth for three runs in the second
and were coasting along to what
appeared to be a sewed-up ball
game but Potomac had different
ideas on the subject as they collect
ed two runs in the eighth to make
the count to 2, Burtonsville. Sud-
dreth weakened in the upper half
of the eighth however and Bur-
louisville collected three more runs
to sew up the game. Potomac raj
lied to score three runs in their
half of the ninth but they didn't
have the necessary punch and the
rally fell short by three runs.
At Gaithersburg the Red Sox
romped over the Cardinals in an
abbreviated game, IA to 5. The
game was called by the Cardinals
manager, Wesley Briggs, in the
last half of the seventh when
close play at first resulted in hot
argument and Briggs took his
team off the field and forfeited the
game to the Rockville team.
Don Benson was the winning
pitcher giving up six hits and five
runs in the seven innings he work
ed. White was the losing pitcher
giving up nine hits, eight walks
and nine runs in six innings.
Young replaced White for one inn
ing and gave up three walks, one
hit and five runs.
Munday, Briscoe and Kidwell
were the big guns in the Red tSox
hitting attack, getting two hits and
scoring two runs each. Briscoe and
Bradshaw clouted home runs. Mil
Ter was the leading hitter for the
Cardinals, getting two hits and
scoring two runs.
In the game played at BeallS-
vile, the Gaithersburg Orioles con-
tinued their winning pace by down.
ing the Upper Montgomery County
Fire Department by a score of 6
to 3.
F. Watkins pitched hitless ball
for five innings and went on to
notch up his second league win of
the year by scattering five hits in
nine innings. He also struck out
three and issued five passes.
Poole went the distance for the
Firemen and was declared the los
ing pitcher. He was touched for
seven hits, struck out six and is
sued three walks.
Oriole Manager Richard Tetlow
has a hustling young ball club
which will bear watching from now
on. The addition of Bones Becraft
to their pitching staff has hurt
their chances none and you can
look for them to be real contend
or for the league crown if they get
a few breaks in the right direction.
Next weeks games will see Po-
tomac at Rockville Red Sox, Bur-
louisville at Gaithersburg Orioles
and Gaithersburg Cardinals play
ing the Firemen at Beallsville. On
Saturday the Red Sox will play the
Falls Church A. A. on the Rock
vile diamond at P. M.

Secretary Brannon told his press

probably none will be for some time.
But it was necessary to set an eX-

to be set since the bumper grain

CLEVELAND, Sept. 6.-The
Air Force called of its scheduled
attempt to break the worlds
speed record today, because OF
rough air and intermittent light
showers.

Flight Test Division at Wright
Field, Dayton, Ohio, made the OFF,
cial announcement after flying a
dummy run over the 1.86-mile
straightaway in an F-80 Shooting

Weather conditions appeared to
be growing worse and Col Boyd
said the air was too rough to permit
speeds of 67O-680 miles an hour.
That was the rate at which Maj.
Richard L. johnson expected to hurl
his F-86 in the second attempt in
two days. Yesterdays try, while
unoff1cially caught at ecord-break-
ing time, was nullified by faulty

at about 6l0 miles an hour and en-
countered considerable f1uttering.

in the world had intervened on the

Three of the six passes over th'
