Tuesday night the Christians and the Episcopalians drove into a dead lock with the Baptists for first place in the City Softball Circuit while the hapless Methoterians mired even farther into the cellar position. In the opener tRe~Epwcupal]ans trounced the last-place Methoter ians. 15-1, behind the seven-hit pitch ing of John Hardy and Sonny Wynne. Hardy", removed from the game in the sixth inning wiJJr a charley horse, received credit for the vic tory. The winners made enough runs to cinch the decision in the first in ning when Cooke walked, stole sec ond and scored on an error, and Pap Diem went the whole way on er rors. Hits by Mears and J. Ward, a walk and an error produced a Methoter ian tally in the second stanza. Sharp hitting, free passes and errors, how ever, accounted for four scores in this third to sew up the game for the Episcopalians. In the nightcap, Jack Manning lim ited the Baptists sluggers to four bingles to allow the Christians to slide into the three-way tie for first place. The score was 6-1. The Christians scored first on George Roberson's home run in the second inning But the battling Bap tists fought back to knot the count with a singleton in the bottom half of the fourth frame. Shelbon Hall singled, advanced on an infield out, and scored on Ralph Taylor's bin gle. Then the Christians put the game on ice with a three-run outburst in the succeeding stanza. "Curly" Man ning got on on an error. Sullivan sin gled and Bunting duplicated the feat to send Manning home. Wallace sin gled to score Sullivan and Bunting tallied on an error of Barnhill's drive to third. A ? Tonight the Methoterians meet- the Baptists in the opener of a twin bill beginning promptly at B o'clock. In the featured finale, the Christians meet the Episcopalians for. at least, a share of the top position in the cir cuit. Both games are scheduled for seven innings.

By "BUFF' "In view of the faithful and reg ular attendance of Edenton fans at Dur home games and because they want Williams ton's Martins in play in their fair town, arrangements are being completed for Williamston and Tarboro to play in Edenton on Wed nesday afternoon, June 25th, at four a'clock," announced President Pete Fowden this week. Manager Poke Whalen's Orioles were scheduled to play in Williamston that day. but it was decided that the two teams would journey on to Edenton for their Coastal Plain contest in appre ciation of the great interest shown by baseball fans of that section. The tamed Edenton High School band will parade there on that day and the league president and several oth f*r dignitaries will go on the "good will tour" tiT7)tn^neigWjoriiiK_city. Many fans of that section have tip juired about the transferring of a game there, and after consulting the Tarboro officials, and the Edenton town council members, the idea was heartily endorsed ? ? ? In making a statement. Eden ton's Mayor, Jaok McMullan said, "The people of Edenton are thankful to Williamston for such a courtesy and I'm sure that local fans will show their appreciation by backing such a "good-will tour". I can speak for the members of the town coun cil in saying that we will do all within our power to make the celebration a success. Both teams participating have Edenton boys and the Tarboro manager and several of his players trained here two years ago with Poco moke City, making It an ex ceptional inducement to the fans of this section. I believe we will have a record crowd." * ? ? NOTES . . . Skipper Frank Rodg ers announced the release of Ted Miller, Bertie County boy . . Teddy has not shown much during the current campaign and the move was taken only after the Skipper gave him every chance in the world . . . At Slakis returned from his home but is still limping ... He sprained his ankle in an exhibition game and it may be a week or more before he is ready to go yet . . . Babe TUckey's injuries were worse than at first thought ... He is reported to have a slight concussion but is getting along very well ? ? ? Commissioner? ? The Coast al Plain League's self-appointed commissioner will "ride" with his team from now on to see that they are given a "square deal." So says Ed W. Davis, sports edi tor of the Wilson Times. He says there is a plot brewing against his Wilson Tobs and he will make every effort to halt the trouble before it gets started, warning League President Ray Goodmon that his findings will be placed in his column. ? ? ? Ed, according to his own writings, is a pretty important gentleman with a lot of experience in the baseball world. He may be, and may not be, and we are not taking sides, but ac cording to the "rules" the president af the league is the man to do such work, and not a sportswriter who I thinks the Wilson Tobs are the only j team in the loop ... He says there I is a plot being started to tuin the crowds at games in Wilson by let-1 ting an infielder or outfielder pitch aguinst the Tobs . . Such may be true, but if so, the rules don't pro hibit it . . And if a, team is delib erately "laying down" so Wilson can win by a large margin, don't you think the league's umpires should make that decision and place fines where necessary . . And then too, Ed doesn't have to "ride" the cir cuit with his team looking for trou ble, for it looks as though Wilson is going to be in for its share before Bramham gets through Accord ing to the salaries Irv Dickens, Doight Morris, Murphy, Eason and Hoyle swore they got, Wilson must be a mighty good place to live in and expenses must be "unusually cheap" . . All five of those players rank among the best in the league . . . And according to unofficial reports, ev eryone signed a notarized statement saying he didn't get over $85 dollars a month . . . Before you start clean ing up the morals of other clubs, you had better go to work on your own Ed . . . And if their statements are true, those boys need a "raise" . . s> RESULTS Tuesday. June II.

Pi The Martins last night utilized a sparkling five-hit pitching perform ance by Pete Kunis to trounce Golds boro's Bugs, 5-2, and advance into y* a fifth place tie in the league stand ings. Hard-hitting Jack Clifton was the only Bug to reach base safely during the first six innings and he W yvas promptly erased in a double play.

Golds bo ro used hits by DiGaetano and Biershenk for a singleton in the seventh and rallied briefly in the ninth. Biershenk gained life on an error and Brinkley tripled him home, but Patton grounded out to Sparr to end the threat. Bert Stotler had two singles and a home run for four attempts to lead the Martins.

Just give it Air - and it'll give you Action MAYBB you didn't know that an efficient gas mixture for your car has about 9,000 parts of_air by volume for every one part of gasoline. That being so, you can see how im portant air-handling capacity is to your power plant. Take this stunning Buick FlHK.ilAt.I. straight-eight, with Compound Car buretiont stepping up its horsepower. Ordinarily, this engine purrs along sweetly with only one of its two car buretors functioning But step down on the gas treacle and what happens? ^ A second carburetor opens up. Doubles the air-handling capacity. Steps up power, lift, life, action. You go swooshing off like a scared boy with a bee behind him. Would feeding more gas accomplish the same resultp After a fashion, yes ? but why be spendthrift? Why feed your engine gaso line when what it wants is air? Why not enjoy power as you want it and when you want it ?plus gas economy that runs as high as 10% to 15^ over last year's Buicks? For that matter ? why get less room, less style, less comfort, less value than Buick offers at such little prices? 4s See your nearest Buick dealer now? and at least jet the delivered figures. for tho iuslnoas Coup* (Illustrated obovo) Including Comooond Cor f Available at slight extra cost on Buick Special models, standard on all othtr Series.
