The Bluffton news. [volume] (Bluffton, Ohio) 1875-current, 1957-05-16

Bluffton infield set up the Wapak
scores.
Bluffton had sallied twice in the
first inning on single, two walks
and bases-loaded single by sopho-
more center-fielder Bruce Bechtel.
Bechters two RIBS closed Bluffton
scoring although they loaded the
bases with no one out in the fourth
inning, before force play and a
double play closed things out.
Van Vert needed last-inning ran
to tie the Pirates and set up an
extra-inning loss for freshman Pirate
pitcher Mike Diller. Three singles in
the ninth inning spelled 6-5 loss for
Diller who had a no-hitter until the
Cougar second baseman, Bell, singled
in the fifth inning.
Van Vert pitcher Bobby Young sci
down Is Bluffton batters in order
after the Pirates had opened the fifth
inning with trio of runs. Still
strong and fresh in the ninth inning
he ended the game by striking ou,
the two top men in the Pirate batting
order.
Bruce Bechtel, with double and
a single and two runs batted in, again
led the Bluffton stickers.

Lack OF Opposition
May Kill Bluffton
Tennis Club

Once-popular organized tennis may
become the second Bluffton summer
pastime to be abandoned in the past
two years, it was indicated this week.
Last year marked the first time in
over 20 years that Bluffton did not
field mems softball team in inter-
city competition.
Woody Little, long time member of
the Bluffton Tennis club, said a lack
of competition in the area may keep
the Bluffton club from organizing on
team basis. Lima, which has slowly
been slipping away from tennis, will
not even have a mems team this
year.
Bluffton's team hangs partly on the
decision of Sidney, Ohio, towards or
ganizing a club for the season. If
Sidney plays, Bluffton may also pre-
sent a team, hoping to pick up
matches with this old rival and other
teams which may be organized i n
that district.
If no team is organized Bluffton
tennis players will still compete in
dividually in Western Ohio tennis
tournaments which will be held later
in the summer.
