Little League baseball was off to flying start Memorial day with games played on the town field and the Naval Station. Both fields were dedicated in brief ceremonies prior to the games.
 The first on-Base game of the season saw the Braves playing host to the Outdoorsmen, and the latter downing them by a score of 10-6.
 Ceremonies were highlighted by the traditional throwing out of the first ball by Radm. H. H. Caldwell, Commandant of the 17th Naval District. The ball, inscribed and autographed by Adm. Caldwell, was caught by Outdoorsmen win hing pitcher, Bill Reedy. Loss of the game was charged to the Braves pitcher, Thurman.
 On the Kodiak field, the Chiefs Club Red Sox team won over the Elks with complete shutout.
 In the second game of the Out doorSmen 20 game schedule, the Merchants bowed to defeat behind the pitching of Wallace Weber with the win going to Outdoorsmen pitcher Don Robinson by a score of 1922. Robinson gave up three hits while flaming 13 Braves batters.
 June 6 saw the yet undefeated Red Sox taking the field against the yet undefeated Outdoorsmen. In the close, hard played game the Red Sox were finally nosed out 4-3. The losing pitcher, Paul Milas, went the distance giving up only three hits and striking out eight batters. The Outdoorsmen starting hurler, Bill Reedy, was relieved at the end of the second inning after giving up three hits and striking out four Red Sox batters.
 In the final four innings, Out doorSmen pitcher Dick Veerman took the mound and held the strong Red Sox team hitless. Veer- man, who was credited with the win, struck out eight of the Red Sox. In the top of the sixth, with the score 4-3, Red Sox Slugger

The Baptismal Service was
one of great soreness that no.
one could ever forget. There
were approximately forty candi-.
dates to be Baptized. An out
door pool was purchased just
for that purpose and many will
remember that glorious hour TO.
many days to come.
Evangelist Beatrice Edwards
brought forth a beautiful mes.
sage to scores of worshipers al
that service.
The Baptizing was officiate6
by Elder Richard Henton and
Elder Alexander Rice, with the
Elders Adolph Coleman and
James Johnson assisting.
After the Baptismal Sc. vices
tables were set up under the
tent and many were served an
appetizing meal Of ham, potato
salad, chicken, cooked vegta
bles, cake, lemonade and many
other appetizing dishes.
Then to climax the service for
the day, Elder Henton brought
forth his Last message Of the
month long revival.
This revival was great bless
ing to those that attended. The
Rev. Sister Johnson should be
highly commended for the eff
fort that she is putting forth
to be a spi itual blessing to the
lost souls and to every Christian
endeavor of Robbins.

In all probability, freshmen

difficulties might ensue should
all eight sets be scheduled for
the same subject and the same
peri ID! Fortunately, however,
this is not likely to occur as
alphabetically the twins last
names are spread from the DIS
through the SIS. On their part
unless their grades prove to- be
identical, each twin will have
hard time explaining to MOI
and Dad why he or she did not
get as good grades as the broth
