Scouts TrOunce
Horizons in Girls
City Softbau

The Girl Scouts shamefully
trounced the Horizons 39-4 in a
game which got out of hand in
the sixth inning. Both teams are
members of the Rockville City
girls softball league.
The Horizons, the senior group
of the Camp Fire Girls, led their
opponents for the first two in
nings. After these few innings,
the Girl Scouts opened a hitting
barrage which ended up in the un-
usual result of 80 runs. Connie
Mckay was the losing pitcher.
She was relieved by Phoebe Amer
lea in the fifth. Miss Phoebe could
not stop the pounding the Girl
Scouts were dishing out.
The winning pitcher riding
along on the hitting spree was
Sandy Clagget. Miss Clagget was
borrowed from the st. Mary's
team because the Girl Scouts
were lacking a pitcher. Getting
hits for the Girl Scouts were the
whole team. Every player on the
victorious team managed to get
one hit, at least. Hitting for the
humbled losers were Jene San.
ders, Peggy Thomas, Linda
Adams, Phoebe America, Pat
Murphy, and Sue Robertson. A
triple by Connie Mckay drove in
two runs which put the Horizons
out in front for the first two in
nings.
The coach of the Horizons, Mr..
Joe America, said that he expects
the team to improve continually
since they are new as a team.
The coach pointed out that his
team is using only girls from the
Horizons while the other teams
are enlisting some players from
various organizations. The next
scheduled play for the girls soft.
ball league is next Monday, July
Is. Game time is at $50 and the
contests are held on the Rockville
Junior High school ball field.

TakOma Tigers
Trim Lyons in
Midget Division

The Takona Tigers, members
in the Silver Spring division OF
the county midget leagues, won
their fifth straight game in the
second round of play as they wal.
loped Lyons Nursery, 14-2.
Pitching the landslide victory
was Stirling Ratcliff. He went
three innings and was then re.
lieved by Nickel Tull, who al
lowed the two runs to cross the
bag. Dave Carasco also put in
three innings as a relief pitcher.
Carasco allowed no runs in his
appearance. Ratcliff, the starter,
retired nine batters in a row.
Making the game exciting was a
grand slammer in the fourth with
two outs and the bases loaded.
Sonny Jackson hit the long ball
that only made the victory more
positive as his team was already
leading by eight runs. Lyons
Nursery was only able to knock
out two hits. The losing pitcher
was Slingluff who allowed nine
hits. The starter was relieved by
Fout.
The Tigers also won an exhibit
lion game played on the Fourth.
Their opponents were Maggie's
Restaurant who are in the Wal
ter Johnson league in Washing
ton. The undefeated Tigers won
8-5. Steven Ness hit a two-run
homer and two singles in the
game. The game was close
throughout and the lead changed
hands several times.
In the Bethesda league, Lloyd's
Sporting Goods beat Garrett Park,
AZ. Pitching the win for Lloyd's
was veteran Mike Miller. The
eventual winners were trailing in
the sixth inning until Chip Ford
tied the game with a double and
knocking in two runs. The vic.
tors cinched the second round
championship with this victory.
All the other teams still have one
game remaining to play.
Placing second behind Lloyd's
thus far is Bethesda Builders Sup
ply with three wins and two
losses. Following Builders Supply
is Potomac with a two and three
record. Bethesda Sports Mart and
Garrett Park both place in the
fourth slot with two and two rec
ords. Carrier Drug is next fol.
lowed by Burgundy Knobs. Bur.

If You Catch
A Money Fish
Send Tag to D. C.

The money fish" of the Chesa.
peake Bay today, literally speak
ing, are the striped bass or rock
las most people call them.
According to DR.. Romeo J. Man
sueti, chief fish biologist of the
Chesapeake Biological Labora'
tory, they purchased 900 striped
bass from fishermen in local wa
tiers, tagged and returned them
alive in the Chesapeake Bay and
the Potomac, Elk and Choptank
Rivers. A goodly number were
also tagged by biologists of the
Maryland Tidewater Fisheries
Department and the State Of Vir
GINA. Approximately $1,000 worth
of such firsh are running loose
in our waters. Another Diamond
Jim was tagged worth $25,0O0)
and released near Annapolis as
an advertising gesture.
If you are a fisherman and
lucky enough to catch striped
bass tagged by biologists, you
win receive S1.0O by returning the
red-numbered tag accompanied by
details plus place and date Of the
catch at once to the U. S. Fish
and Wild1ife Service, Washington
More than SO of the tags at
tached by the biologists from
Solomons in 1857 already have
been returned by lucky fisher
men. Some Of these recaptured
fish ranged from one pound to
about three pounds and they werI
caught generally in the area clos

BOnifant Is Winning
Pitcher; Lets 5 Hit

The Orioles handed the
Atoms their second defeat of
the second round in the Mont
gomery County Boys Baseball
Association. The Oriole team
is comprised of boys from the
Sherwood area.
The Orioles took the game by a
score of 6-5. Pitching the win for
the Orioles was Carl Bonifant

ing only five hits. Buddy Coale

team came from behind to win
the game. Also figuring in the
teams victory were hits by Tom
my East and John Hogan. Both
of the midgets hit singles.

fich who was relieved by Wielder
in the fourth. The Orioles are now
leading the Kensington-Wheaton
midget league with an overall
record of four wins and one loss

team. Bobby Boswell is leading
the team in. the batting average
columns. Bobby is hitting $40.
East is next with an average of
367 and is followed by Buddy
Coale hitting 1863.
East is also a good catcher as
well as being top notch pitcher
and hitter. A newcomer to the
team, Nicky Nicholson, is also
proving to be an outstanding ball
player. Micky is, in the estima.
tion of his coach, Vaughn Coale,
an exceptionally accurate thrower.
Coach Coale also complimented
his newcomer with the phrase
"all-around ballplayer." Coach
Coale added that he believes that
too many managers are forget
ting that the ball games are played
for the benefit of the boys. He
claimed that many coaches are
spending much of the time bick-
ering over technicalities.
The Kensington Blue Jets de-
feated the Wheaton Merchants,
60. Contributing to the victory
for the blue Jets was the surpris-
ing pitching of the regular third
baseman for the team, Mickey
Huddie. Mickey allowed only three
hits during the game. This was
the new discovery's first start as
a pitcher. Good base running on
the part of the Blue Jets also
figured in the win.

Newley was credited with the win
Blue Jet Buddy Kupka aided sig
nificantly in the win with his out
standing base running.

Bethesda Civilians ace hurler,

knocking in two runs.
The top hitters for the Rock
vile Civilians are Thurlow Carey

tans, was secuted during the
game against Takoma. Pete Ha-
ley, territorial scout for the De
troit Tigers, gave the promising

raday has been watched on sew
eral occasions before while play
ing for the Civilians, but this was
the first time he has been APP
preached and offered papers by
any scout. Harraday is a June

The Tigers scout told the coach
of the Civitan team, Harry Beane,
that he is interested in other play
ers on the club, also. Also play

is Jimmy LeCompte. The poten-
fia1noncoiot1c coo11f enid Alot Ia

itan's games, claimed coach
Beane.
Oakdale beat the Colesville
Lions "a. A triple by Richard
Cline aided in the victory for
Oakdale. Jack Maddox was the
winning pitcher while Mccarthy
took the loss. Oakdale has the
chance to the first half champion
ship in the senior division of the
county baseball organization by
defeating the Ramblers. If they

would be tied for first with Rock
vile and Colesville.

vile and Colesville who are tied
for second. Both second place
teams have five wins and two
losses. Takoma Boys clubs No. /
and No. 2 are in third and fourth
places, respectively. Bethesda Civ
itan and Woodacre Ranblers are
