big crowds in the Industrial and
Prince Georges Leagues, but the
pitching he's been doing deserves
la larger audience. He is due for
discharge the first of next year,
and the Brooklyn Dodgers, among
other major league clubs, are
anxious to give him chance in
the minor leagues.
Brooklyn recently took Bob to
Newport News for an expenses
paid. nine-day visit with their
Piedmont League affiliate, and
are rumored to have offered him
$4,000 to sign. The New York
Giants, not to be outdone by their
crosstown rival, are also interested
in him.
Throws Hard, Fast Ball.
Darnell throws fast ball that
is as swift if not swifter than
the high, hard one fired by Bob
Mitchell, ace Ole Olson hurler last
year. When last heard from,
Mitchell had pitched 66 innings
in relief and hung up SIS record
for Chattanooga, the Mats Glass
A farm in the Southern Associa-
ton
In addition to his fast ball,
Darnell has a fair curve and some
thing most inexperienced pitchers
lack-a good change of pace. Bob
makes his No. / pitch look even
quicker than it is by taking off a
little bit from his fast ball and
often tossing a half-speed curve
to get the hitter off balance.
Bob has won nine and dropped
two to Fort Meade while pitching
for Boiling, and hasn't lost game
on the area sandlots. In fact, he
doesn't have to make excuses for
those losses to Meade. for the SOL
diers have a team that is COM
posed of major leaguers, triple
and double-A ball players, and
Darnell posted a 5-4 victory over
them in the three games he was
on the mound.

Part of a headline from the
Salt Water Sportsman. Heat Wave
Cools Hot Spots; expresses our
opinion of the angling situation
in nearby water. both fresh and

encouraging this week and lots
of fishermen are loafing out the
hot spell. If you're just bound to

best bet.
Undoubtedly quite a few salt
water anglers will head oceanward
this weekend, making the trip over
the recently y-opened Chesapeake

catch are only $3.50.
Surf casting and pier fishing In
this coastal area are producing q
few trout and whiting. Inlet fish
ing is producing lots of founders
some running to several pounds
lin weight. This is particularly true
lat Chincoteague and Wachaprea-

universally good.
Some fair cobia are being taken

men are now on top.
Bob made his first appearance
this month and stopped the Heu-
rich Brewers, 60. on five hits. Last
week Heurich again saw Darnell
and again got only five hits as
Silver Hill won, 90.
In a Prince Georges Suburban
League game last Sunday. Silver
Hill had only a 9-8 lead going into
the eighth inning against Atchi-
son and Keller when Darnell took
over and pitched hitless ball in
the final frames.

Stationed at Boiling Air Force
Base, the well-built righthander
learned all he knows about pitch
ing in the service. He Joined the
Air Force when he was II and
spent four years at Hickam Field
In Honolulu. :
The brand of baseball was ex-
cellent there and -Darnell de-
veloped into a top-fight hurler.
I'VE had good crowds at the
games" Bob says, land they were
plenty loud, too. I learned you
couldn't have rabbit ears out there
and pitch good ball. We had 5000
in the stands for every game and
1000 to 10000 for the playoffs."
Darnell isn't performing before
