Youngstown Team
Plagued By Rains
Jupiter Pluvius
Wrecks Schedule

YOUNGSTOWN - Their
schedule cut short by heavy
rains which have plagued the
district for the last few weeks
even to flood levels in some
areas, the st. George Lodge
66 softballers managed to
compile victories that brought
their seasons record to 10
wins and 4 losses.
The most notable victory
was over a tough combine
from Mcdonald, Ohio
coached by Tom Turkovic,
proprietor of Franks Ia
vern, sponsor of the team.
1t took II innings for the
'2-1 victory, the winning run
being scored by Ed Banko,
who had singled and came
home on big brother Nick's
game winning triple. Mike
Bucich twirled a neat two
hitter in his auspicious debut
as a starting hurler.
Another victory was scored
over Holy Trinity Church
team as the feature attrac-
ton of that parish's picnic.
The 1922 victory enabled Jake
Bolkovac to add to his bat
ting average as he went 5 for
5, two being doubles.
In one of the best played
games of the season, Jim
Dellick hurled a one-hitter
as the 66-ers beat st. Ber-
nards, 10.
The lone run was scored by
Juni Lubanovic, who had
doubled and rode home on
Pavlinic's single. Joe Labozon
pulled the fielding gem of the
day, racing into deep center
field to spear a long drive
from homerun territory.
The last defeat was to the
Costello Painters of the local
"AA" League, who eked out
a 5-3 victory in the last inn
ing. The three runs came as
the result of Ed Leshnack's S
homer sending home Butch
Kraynovich who had doubled
and Dellick who beat out q
bunt.

Monessen Cro.Ams In Battle For City F|aq

MONESSEN, Pa. - It's
been a long time since l let
the C.F.U. world know about
the activities in Monessen
sports circles.
In the Monessen City Soft
ball League our Cro-Ams are
in the thick of the champion
ship race. This years league
is said to be one of the most
evenly balanced leagues in
years. Any team is capable of
defeating another in this tor
rid six team league.
Our Cro-Ams who are cur
rently in second place behind
the Ravens A.C. are known to
be very strong In the final
weeks of the season and es-
pecially in the play-offs.
In their last outing Ray
Nickolich gave the Cro-Ams
a 80 win over ULBA by hurl-
ing a fine four hit affair.
Nickolich defeated another
good pitcher in a losing effort,
Ed Schilling, who allowed the
Cro-Ams but seven hits.

Cleveland Nest
Meets The Best
Youngsters Vow
Worm Will Turn

CLEVELAND, Ohio - The
Nest 55 entry in the Cleve-
land Little League has had its
ups and downs which we hope
to cover in this report. The
July 9th game against the
Nottingham Cubs ended 80
in the latter's favor. Both
teams scored one run apiece
in the final inning.
A game two days later with
the Bill Clothiers found the
C-F-U-ers shackled until the
final inning when they scored
4 runs to no avail as the Clo-
thiers had built up a sizeable
lead, the final score ia. P.
Mahovlic continued his heavy
hitting getting a triple in this
defeat.
The schedule pitted these
two teams again on July
18th. The Bill Clothiers
jumped to a three run lead
in the opening inning and
added another in the fifth
when we scored once.
Nest IS added two more in
the sixth and this concluded
the scoring as the final score
read 4-3 against us.
Going into the 7th inning
on July 18 against the Ben
gals, our lads scored 4 and 2
runs in the 7th and 9th inn
ings to emerge victors rs.
No other comments on this
game accompanied the SEQ
rer's report.
The Nesters seemed to have
their stride or found an op-
ponent willing to take it as
they hobbled the Euclid Colts
on July 25th. 1t took 4 runs
in their top half of the final
inning to win SO. Kocjan on
the mound whitfield s of the
opposing batsmen.
Scoring three, two and five
runs in three straight innings,
the Nest 55 Little Leaguers
downed the Bengals III on
July 9th. J. Sadar in his
three hits included a double
as did M. Latkovic in his two
hits. Latkovic with three runs
was the high scorer for us.
The Juniors are playing
much better ball, having
won three of their last four
games. Johnny Skorich and
Dennis Ferrich have made
the Euclid AIl-Star team
Playing on Amateur Day
they disported themselves
well on July 23rd.
The team was entered in
the August 3rd Press Trophy
Tournament. Regardless of
how they Jared there, they
still will play for the Whitley
Lewis trophy in contention
later in the season.

The good hitting of the
Cro-Ams led by Dick and Tay
Saflin, Paul Kunsa, Jack Bal
ly, and Pete Prezgar has been
the big reason the Cro-Ams
are right in the fight of
things.
We have also been getting
