Either way, whether he stays
or goes, Adams is bound TO fig

determined that Adams should not
be judged alone on the coat and

The Maine election takes

Outside of experience, our pint
size baseball heroes have devel-
oped timing, cooperation and team
work you would see in the big
leagues. OF course, the big broth
ers to the lii leaguers, namely, the
coaches, Leo and Bill Mamon. Ber-
ME and Benny Cantil, and Greg
Ebat are responsible for drilling
the players in fundamentals sig
nails, swings, pick-ups and throws.
When the BOLOS started the
season, there was a bit of uncer-
tainty in their play, but their spir-
its are soaring now since the kids
have developed this sharp edge of
teamwork. This is evidenced by
the box scores showing more COM
petitive scoring in the last few
games.
The remaining three games of
the season might mean the 1--WE
where the BOLOS will hit their
stride With a battery like Doug
Arviso and Rudy Gramaje on the
mound and Mike Hill behind the
plate, you can count on the rest
of the season to be hot and heavy.
The July game with the BLUE
NOTES is ideal for rounding up
the July 4th weekend. Here's the
chance for you parents to see
your community team in action.
After the final game July 9, the
white and red-trimmed uniforms
will go into mothballs until next
spring. At the end of this season,
the coaches have planned a picnic
for these Lii League veterans. 1t
looks like the team is looking for
ward to this event with more en-
thusiasm than playing its game.

spirited like it is, General Man.

quite a problem selecting players
