Loose Fielding Costly
To Local Ball Team
Team Drops
Both Openers

Last Sunday at WHY'S No. I,
the Local IL baseball team open
ed tn cir season by dropping
their first game to the Monroe
Orioles 18 to s. Loose fielding
by the Local nine was response
bic for the initial loss.
Jim Pentis with two hits and
two walks led the Local IL hit
ters. Frank Pinciotti with q
double, Carl Damico and Pete
.Severhof were the men with the
bat for the other Local IL bing-
les. Bill Wegman was the start
ing pitcher for the Union nine
and he was relieved by Bob
Michalski in the sixth,
Paul Wilder with a home run
and a double and Dan Henegar
with 3 RB.I. led the Monroe hit
ters.
On Memorial Day the Local
team engaged the classy Jim
White Chevvies and came out on
the short end of the score 13 to
3. Once again it was loose field
ing and some rather f1ighty
pitching that gave the opposition
it, win. After scoring two runs
in the first the Locals were held
in check the rest of the way by
the sterling pitching of the Jim
Whites Jim Desmond, former
Central Catholic hurler.
The all around play of Pete
Severhof, Carl Damico, Frank
Pinciotti were the only bright
spots for the Local boys. Co..
Managers Bill Borden and Carl
Domico expect to shake up the
lineup for the next game and
any L local II members who
would like to try out for the
team are still welcome, as posi-
tions are still open.

Most fans know that Ted's
lifetime major league batting
average is .353, or 22 points
better than that Of the Yankee
outfieId star. But in the COM
parison of how they have hit
from the start Of their careers
through the 1949 season in

Clipper" holds a decided edge.
TOE'S lifetime, for games
q played in Boston for the
seasons 1886 through 1949 is an
amazing .337. For eight seasons
of play at Yankee stadium (both
players were in service 1943-

average of .315. In home runs
it's closer than that. In IL years

Ted has hammered out at
Yankee stadium in eight cam
paigns. Joe's head start in the
1886, 1887 and 1888 seasons
preceding Ted's entry into the
league, show a total of six
homers, two in each of those
three years in games at Fenway.
DOTH hit brilliantly in each
- others park in I949, Ted's
average being .371 to 1854 for
Joe. But on a clutch-hitting
basis, the Yankee star took
the play, his appearances at
Fenway being as spectacular
and dramatic as any he has
made in a long and brilliant
career. Returning to action
after missing his clubs first SIS
games, Joltin' Joe played at
Boston June 28, getting two
hits in three trips, one a
homer. The following day he
had two safeties in five trips,
both home runs. And as the
Yankees swept the three game
set the next day, Joe homered
again to be the toast of the
fans from coast to coast. In
all, in six games last summer
in Fenway Park, DiMaggio
hit safely in each game, had
five homers.

keep them round, to cut down
absorption of water, to cushion
the sleeve threads, and to make
them wear longer. Fishermen
using very light lures and fast
reels will find a soft braided
line much better than the hard
braided type. Soft lines will
however, pick up much more
water. Therefore, when using
soft lines, keep the tip high to
keep most of the line dry. When
comparing casting qualities, a
twelve pound soft line handles
on a par with a ten pound hard
braided line. Fishermen wishing
to trade casting ease for dur
ability, should use the hard
lines. They will last twice as
long if given reasonable care.

I do not know what the policy ought to be until I have better study made. Also, I want to discuss such matter with the President before making any statement"
