The Standings

DCuCWuAC
FELTON, at Wyoming.
Harrington at Viola.
Frederick at Pennington.
Heavy rains over the weekend
completely erased the Mar-Del
League schedule as the result of
wet grounds. This will prOlong the
regular season one week as the
games are all important as they
will have a bearing on the final
outcome of the top four play-Off
berths. FELTON, has one game re-
naming when they face the pen
nant winning and unbeaten Wyom-
ing nine this Sunday on the latter's
diamond. Currently FELTON, has a
full game lead over the deadlOcked
Frederick and Harrington nine as a
result of picking up a half game
as Hickman withdrew which gave
the End place club a forfeit on
Sunday. Harrington also has a
game remaining with Wyoming
while the tilt with Frederick looms
big for both teams. All three clubs
are going all out to take the End
slot as they will not be called upon
ito meet Wyoming in the Semi-finals.
Playing a top brand of ball for
the past few weeks Pilot Johnny
Bunnells FELTON, tOssers will invade
Wyoming this Sunday with strong
intentions of halting the Wyoming
streak which has now reached II
straight Harold ROthmel, one of
the Circuits most effective hurlers,
will be on the mound for the Visi-
tors while Joe MOeltneT, Donnie
oliver or Aub Berry will get the
Wyoming nod from Manager Fred
die Clemence. Harrington could
meet surprising opposition as they
invade Viola this Sunday. Bill Bid
die, Viola veteran, had been round
ing into shape fast and will oppose
the visitors. Charley Riley or Harry
Barrett will get the starting role
for Harrington.
Frederick makes their final road
trip of the regular season as they
travel to Pennington on Sunday.
This may prove tough battle for
the Frederick nine as Pennington
surprise in their last game as an in
spired nine upset Harrington in a
thriller. 5 to 8. They expect to have
Bobby Messick in the lineup which
seems to do things to the 9th place
nine. Paul Dean will do the hurling
for the host nine while Frederick
will be at full force with Jim Pos
ties, Buddy Kimmel, Ken McClam-
rock and Roy Kemp set to take the
mound. McClamrOck looms as the
possible starter.
