AS this is written Wednesday
morning, all that is necessary for
Petersburg, Va, to take over the
franchises of the Roanoke team,
which announced earlier in the week
that because of financial difficulties
it was withdrawing from the league,
is the approval of the Petersburg
baseball stadium by the Boston Red
Sox, who has had a working agree
ment with Roanoke all season.
If the park is approved, Peters
burg will take over the Roanoke
franchise on Saturday.
In the event, however, that the
negotiations fall through, the Pied
mont League will operate as a sew
en-team league for the remainder
of the season.

Junior League News

l took in the playoff game Friday
night at the stadium between the
Jaycees and the Boys Club for the
first half championship of the Junior
Baseball League and 1 was very much
disappointed to see how few turned
out for the game.
Behind the three hit pitching of
young Duffey, who really had a
world of stuff and all the confidence
in the world, the Jaycees won the
game by a score of 5 to 2.
Whatever chance the Boys Club
had was ruined by the wildness of
their pitchers and the inability of
Boward, their catcher, to hang onto
the ball.
The two teams met again on Mon
day evening on the City Park dia-
mond in a regular second half game
Once again Duffey proved himself
the master, shutting out the Boys
Club l to 0 on two hits. Included
in his nine strikeoutS were three in
row in the fifth inning, when he re-
tired the side in order. The win
gave him a record of six wins with
out a loss.
The game was a real thriller,
with the Jaycees lone run coming
in the first inning. Baker, for the
Boys Club, also pitched ball that
would have won nine out of ten
games.

Hagerstown Races
Start On August Is
Henry J. Carroll VIII Serve AS
Racing Secretary OF To-Day
Meet.

The announcement that Henry j.
Carroll will again serve as racing
secretary at the Hagerstown Fair
Associations annual Today meet
has met with the hearty approval of
horsemen planning to bring their
horses to this city.
The 1858 HagerstoWn meet will
open on August IS at the picturesque
Hub City Fairgrounds and will run
through August 20, with no racing
on Sundays or Mondays.
For the past two Hagerstown
meetings, Mr.. Carroll has held the
position of racing secretary and his
record over that period has been
very commendable
Having served in practically every
department and having held most of
the official positions that go with
racing, Mr.. Carroll is a veteran in
the racing game. A keen student of
the Sport of Kings, he is considered
one of the best handicappeTs among
the half-milers.
During the past two meets at Hag-
erstoWn, many outstanding and
thrilling races have been presented
with the photo being used in many
of the races to decide the winner.
Applications for stalls are rolling
into the office of assistant manager
Merle c. Beard which means that
there will be an abundance of
thoroughbreds on hand for the com
ing Hagerstown session.
Leading owners and trainers, who
have their stables running at near
by Charles Town, have signified their
intentions of racing mere during the
Today meeting.
Eight races will be held daily,
with the post time for the first race
each day set for 2 o'clock.

MANUFACTURERS TNISnL
The members of the HRgerstown
Manufactures Bureau are sponsor
ing tonight's game between the
Braves and the Richmond Colts and
the committee has been working
hard to make the night a real success.
1t is expected that there will be
a big crowd of the management and
employees of the manufacturers in
the city and county and the Bureau
deserves a lot of credit for putting
on the Booster Night to help swell
the attendance at the stadium.
While we were closed down for
the past two weeks, Jimmy linn,
who did such a fine job as acting
manager of the Braves - he brought
the team up to within one-half game
of the league-leading Newport News
club - asked owner Gene Raney to
relieve him of his managerial duties
AS the result of this, Mr. Raney
brought in Billy urges, the major
league veteran, who played lot Of

and the New York Giants in the
National League and he took over
the job on Sunday, July IL

to meet the new manager but wish

at the same time offer my sincere
congratulations to Jimmy, who really
put himself on the spot when he

Obviously for the purpose of keep

White Sox, in the game against
Washington on Saturday afternoon,
came up with just about the worst
piece of scoring | have ever heard
of.
Sam Mele, with a record of hav-
ing hit safely in Il straight games,
came to bat for the last time Rich
ards, his manager, intent on win
ming the game, ordered Mele to bunt
since there was man on base. Mele
hunted towards the pitchers mound
and the pitcher fumbled the ball not
once, but twice, and even with those
two glazing miscues, Mele Just miss
ed being thrown out at first. There
was quite long wait before the hit
or error sign was flashed and then
the hit sign went up. The play, on
television, was one that everybody
could see and even Arch Mac Don
aid, who seldom criticises the scor-
ing of a game, said he never had
seen anything like it in all his years
as a baseball announcer.
But the Chicago scorers tainted

streak going came to nothing, as
