Since his start, over twenty
years ago, critics and authorities
have recognized that Ellington
is always at least decade ahead
Of his time. And the rich and
fertile possibilities of this music
of America are still in the pro-
cess of exploration and develop
ment by the Duke and his Gre
alive soloists.
Recognition for the Ellington
band has not been a swift pro-
cess. But today il stands as the
winner Of every authoritative or
chestra poll in America. There
is growing tendency to termi-
nate the regularity of its success
i've victories by placing Filing
toms in a class alone and letting
other bands compete for places
in separate competition.
II is also not uncommon in
these polls to find Duke and his
right hand man. Billy Strayhorn,
finishing first and second as ar
rangers; and such stars as Johnny
Hodges. alto saxophone; Law
renee Brown. trombone; Harry
Carney, baritone saxophone; jim
my Hamilton, clarinet and the
others of fabulous instrumental
virtuosity finishing tops in their
respective instrumental divisions
or very close to it.
The Orioles In Person
The Orioles, the fabulous re-
cording quintet, who share stage
honors at the Paradise theatre
with Duke, began their newborn
career because they didn't win
first prize on radio show.
II all began when they APP
peared on the Arthur Godfrey
Talent Scouts show in New York.
Godfrey sadly informed them
that they hadn't won.
Later it was learned that Ar
thur Godfrey sent out SOS calls
on his morning show asking ev-
eryone who knew the where
abouts of the Orioles to please
contact him. The instrumentalists
returned to New York and made
a belated appearance on the God
frey morning program.
And that's how Americas new
est most popular quartet was put
on the road TO fame and fortune

he had perfect control and didn't
walk man. Herndon, on the other
hand, struck out two, but he also
walked two and it was one of those
two walks that won the ball game.
By strange coincidence, York,
like Hagerstown here on Monday
night, had a chance to make a triple
play, but they also failed when the
throw to first was wild.
York took a one-run lead in the
fourth, when with two away, Van
Alystne clouted one over the left
field wall. But the Braves tied it up
in the top half of the sixth. Herndon
opened the inning with single to
left. Simmons then grounded to Sam
sci at third, who made wild throw
trying to get Herndon going into
second, with both runners being safe
on the error. Heap followed with a
single to center, scoring Herndon
with the run that tied it up with
Simmons stopping at second. Levan
then lined to Stratton, who threw
to Weygant, who doubled off Sim
mons before he could get back, but
the triple play failed when Weygant
made a bad throw to first trying to
nail Heap, who then went to second
on the error. Tedesco then grounded
out to end the inning.
That was all the scoring until the
bottom half of the ninth, when York
pushed the winning run across. Van
Alystne, the first man up, got base
on balls and Hudascek sacrificed him
to second Samsel flied to center
for the second out, but Overland
came through with single to right,
scoring Van Alystne.

BILE plays. Danny Long was his catch
er.
Segzda, highlander, went the
route for York and pitched shut
out ball except in the second and
third innings, when the Braves
scored all four of their runs Dick
Stingley was his battery mate.
Hagerstown took 20 lead in the
bottom half of the second. With one
away, Tufano walked and went all
the way to third on Heinbaugh's in
field out when Samsel failed to get
back to the bag after fielding the
ball. Astbury also got a base on
balls, and then, with Long at bat,
Astbury broke for second and Tu-
fano scored when Van Alstyne drop
ped Stingley's throw. It was scored
as stolen base for Astbury with
Tufano scoring on the error. Long
then slammed a two-bagger to right,
scoring Astbury with the second
run. Allen reached first on an in
field error, but Simmons grounded
out to retire the side.
In the top half of the third Hag-
erstown came mighty close to pull
ing off triple play Stingley, the
first man up, singled, and Segzda
beat out hit to short, putting men
on first and second with nobody out.
Weygant, attempting to bunt, popped
up. Tedesco raced in, caught the
ball for out number one and then
whipped it to Heinbaugh at second
to retire Stingley before he could
get back. His throw, however, to
first to try and get Segzda for the
triple play, was high. But it
should be stated that Charlie had to
jump out of the way of Stingley who
was sliding back to the bag, and was
off balance when he made the
throw.
The Braves sewed the game up in
the bottom half of the third when
they got two more runs. With one
away Levan lifted a high fly to left
that Burns lost, and it went down as
two-bagger. Rocky Tedesco then
parked one over the left field wall.
That was all the scoring until the
seventh when York picked up their
first run. Overland walked and
moved to second on Stingley's sin
gle. Segzda struck out and Wey-
CANT flied out to center Martinich
also flied to center, but Tufano drop
ped the ball and Overland, who with
two out was running, scored from
second. Burns flied to right to re-

ond run came in the top half of the
ninth, when with two away, Sting
ley, who had reached first on a
fielder's choice, scored on Weygant's
double.
