Softball League
Opens In Milford

The Milford Softball League
started off with bang this year.
Pete Desmond, veteran catcher of
the Red Men, blasted ball over
the right field fence for a home
run. and the V. F. w. had a battle
of one-hit ball with Houston. Both
clubs came up with a scratch
single.
The V. F. w battled last years
champion Houston TO win by a
score of / to 0. Harvey Shockley
pitched his team q victory over
Tex Henson, last years pitching
champion. Bob Porter of the V. F..
w. was the only player to hit Tex,
as Tex struck out eleven other
players. 1t was the airtight defense
of the Vets that made the differ
ence. We can look for bigger and
better things from Tex during the
season.
The Red Men beat the Jaycees
20 to 4 as Pete Desmond led his
men by getting three hits, one of
them a home run with two men on
base. The Red Men and Jaycees
came up with ten hits each, but the
Jaycees made several errors to let
in runs. Both teams have a lot of
veterans holding the clubs together
and are expecting good things from
their rockies.
President, Bob Green has secur-
ed the Milford Ball Park for games
this season. This is a change from
the previous announcement of the
games to be played at the High
School. They are now being played
at the ball park each Tuesday
Every other Tuesday one of the
two ball games will be played at
Houston. Come out to the ball park
and Houston to support your favo-
rite club.

their patience and forbearance in
rearing and nourishing their FAM

ate time TO memorialize those Mo-
theirs who no longer grace the fam
lily circles in our state; Now
THEREFORE,, I, J. Caleb Boggs,
Governor of the State of Delaware,

Estimate Is Conservative
The $35 million was termed a
conservative estimate Of the dol
lar outpouring by Protestants,
Jews and Catholics here because
Of skinny records.
Part of the construction story
is tied to the ever-moving popu-
lation which has made of WASH

the continuing influx Of resi-
diets to Washington and its SUBJ
