BurtonsviIIe The Winner
In Upper County League

In their first game in defense Of
their Upper County baseball title,
Burtonsville coasted to a IS to 2
win over Gaithersburg in the only
league game played Sunday. Rock
vile and Upper County Fire De-
partment postponed their game at
Beallsville due to wet grounds.
Burtonsville was the weaker of
the two in the hitting department,
getting II hits off Wash" White,
while Brewer was touched for IL
hits by Gaithersburg. Burtonsville
took advantage of several miscues
to pile up the big lead.
Easily the outstanding player on
the field was Lee Brown, short
stop for Burtonsville. Besides col
lecting 3 for 5 at the plate and
driving in six runs, he came up
with several sensational fielding
plays to cut off potential Gathers
burg runs.
For Gaithersburg "Wash" White

IL hits, while Brewer struck out
5. walked none and gave up IL hits.

Beall is new addition to the out

On Sunday, May LIST, Damascus
and Colesville led the way to con-
vincing second-round victories over
Bethesda and Sandy Spring in the
Montgomery County Baseball
League, while Rockville and Silver
Spring remained idle due to wet
grounds at Welsh Field.
At Bethesda, Damascus Firemen
were trailing to 2 at the end of
the third. But in the fourth Nor
man Murray, who cools off the hot
corner for the Fire-eaters, hon.
cred with two on to knot the count
at five-all. When the smoke cleared
away Damascus had a 13 to win
for their second victory in two
games of loop play.
All told Damascus touched the
parade of Bethesda pitchers for
eleven hits and made only one mis-
cue on slippery field. The parade
was led by southpaw Charlie Pugh
who was followed by Jack Town
send in the fifth and Bill Bort in
the ninth, when Damascus capped
the contest with burst of four
runs.
Harold Morris started for Da-
mascus and retired in the third
after giving up five hits and five
runs. Paul Burner took over at
that point to shutout Bethesda for
the remainder of the game, giving
up only two hits and striking out
ten men along the way.
On the Sherwood oval, Colesville
got off to a muddy start, held a
four-length lead at the second post
and breezed to a 6 to 3 win over
Sandy Spring by adding two more
runs in the ninth as they came
under the wire. In so doing +hc
Colesville Colts amassed IL hits
and made 2 errors while the Sandy
Spring Quakers got six bingles and
were found guilty of 8 miscues
afield.
Starting pitcher Bill Giller
struckout 8 men but was touched
for the six hits and three runs

made by the Quakers. OF Marse
Robert Brother" Love took COM
mand in the sixth and whitfield
seven men to pitch hitless ball for
the remainder of the game.
For the Quakers it was Cal He'll
with Herb DeVers coming on in
the second when Colesville was
leading a to 0. DeVers turned in
creditable performance, allowing
but two runs. These came in the
ninth when Rand Connellee and
Gene Taylor poked ground-rule
doubles out of the park.
Other big guns for Colesville
were John Bonifant, Bus Ander-
son and Bob Xander, each of whom
made a brace of hits to account
for exactly half of the safe blows
garnered by Gibson's entire stable.
An interesting sidelight on the
Silver Spring-Rockville game can
collation. is new league rule which
will require these teams to play a
double-header when they next meet
at Welsh Field on July 10th. If Ed
Bladen and Joe Hutchinson do not
see fit to play-off this game on a
Saturday or holiday during the
interim, they will be forced to pre-
sent double-feature when they
tangle on the Rockville diamond.
On Sunday, May 9Th, at 3P. M,
Rockville journeys to Damascus
and Bethesda entertains Sandy
Spring, while Silver Spring and
Colesville do battle in the bottom
called Bonifant's Meadow. Prob
able starters are Frank Mahon
and Paul Burner at Damascus;
Herb DeVers and Charlie Pugh at
Bethesda, and Mule Norris and
Brother Love at Colesville.

Senator Says Selfish Interests
Are Blocking Color I elevision

Senator johnson said two color
demonstrations last week at the
Armory, televised directly from
Baltimore, proved that color tele-
vision had arrived. He added
that television licensees can
broadcast color signals for COM
paratively little additional capital
investment over black and white
and with no additional operat-
ing cost.
He said also that every televi-
sion receiving set now in the
hands Of the public "can be
equipped at a relatively modest
cost" with a converter or adaptor
to pick up color signals.
ITO stall, to procrastinate, to
wait merely means that the great
buying public would be required
to continue to buy black and
white receiving sets. which even
tually will require converters. )"
Senator johnson wrote to Paul
A. Walker. vice chairman Of the
