Edenton, Aug. 13—In an eigh teen inning thriller, the Edenton Naval Air Station team defeated the Windsor Rebels, 5 to 4, Satur day afternoon on the Edenton field, after pitcher Fred Castel loe walked three players to force in Setran, who had singled, for the winning run. Kenneth Sallinger turned in a great performance on the mound for Winlsor, scattering twelve hits in sixteen innings. Castelloe re-i lieved him for the last two, frames, allowing two hits. Hatcher, who went the first fif teen innings for CASU, also yield ed twelve hits. Asmer went on the mound in the sixteenth to give up five more hits, including a double by Ted Miller in the eighteenth inning. Windsor went ahead in the first inning when two hits, a hit bats man, and two Edenton errors gave them three tallies. The Rebels completed a double play in each of the first three innings and an other one in the seventh, and threatened to shut out the Sailors until their first errors of the game and a single in the eighth produc ed a run for Edenton. A string of errors and two hits in the ninth allowed CASU to deadlock the score. Hoggard, first at bat for Windsor in the tenth, singled, was advanced to scoring position by a sacrifice, and came home on Wil liford’s long hit, putting the Reb els in the lead again. Edenton came back in its half of the same inning to tie the score again, when Seghers was safe at first on an error, was advanced by fice, and came home on single. After this both teams a sacri- Lembo's stop er- roring and played bang-up base- ball until Edenton finally broke the tie in the last of the eighteen th.

Fourteen times these , teams have Fame together in the Nat ional League race and 13 times the Cubs triumphed. Sometimes they handed poor Bill McKechnie’s men a robust thumping, other 0 times they just barely skinned in. 11 But always the Cubs won, and'. 0 1 2 2 1 this has been the major factor in Chicago’s firm hold on first place.

These delinquent motorists were required to buy stamps before pro ceeding and this caused a mild traffic jam on both streets. Eden ton police assisted in keeping the traffic moving. For Loop Leaders In American Debut By JOE KEICHLER Associated Press Sports Writer Jim Tobin, veteran hurler who travelled the waiver route from Boston to Detroit—switching from the National League to the Amer ican—may be a vital cog in the Tigers’ bid for the junior major league pennant which they won in 1940 and nearly won last year. Tobin, making his American Lea gue debut yesterday before 53,189 paid—the second largest Detroit crowd of the season—pitched and batted to triumph in one game of a twin Tiger defeat of the New York Yankees, 9-6 and 8-2. Obtained only a week ago from the sixth place Boston Braves, Tobin not only confounded the Yanks through three scoreless frames of the 11-inning first game, but biastea a three-run homer that broke a 6-6 tie. The Senators won the opener from the St. Louis Browns 9-5 to keep pace with the Tigers, but dropped back when the American League champions, behind Bob Muncrief, annexed the second con test, 4-1.

Pete Swanson’s son, Pete Jr., brought his tenth Jap plane down last week, and his dad couldn't help bragging. But I got to thinking about Pete Senior: how he hadn’t missed a day at the war plant since the war began; how he'd worked overtime and Saturdays and Sundays; how he’d kept himself in shape, been temper ate and sensible, so that he’d be at work clear-headed, bright and early every morning. So, when he invited us over after work to drink a toast to his son in a sparkling glass of beer—I couldn’t help toasting Pete Senior, too. From where I sit, there’s more than one kind of “ace” that’s helping win this war... men like Pete Senior, too. And when the war is over, and the monuments are erected to its heroes, I hope they don't forget the workman on the home front -the man who stuck to his job like a soldier to his guns, until A dvt. © 1945, UNITED STATES BREWERS FOUNDATION, North Carolina Commutes Edgar H.

Standing of Ciubs convinced that against this par ticular foe it can do no wrong and, in the meantime, the other side gradually assumes a reverse attitude. And before you know it you have a case like this one, in which the Cubs can hardly sleep nights, so eager are they to resume relationship with poor Cincinnati. It has come to the point where the Cubs are talking about reaching the all-time record, which is 21 victories out of 22 games against a given foe. It was the Cubs of Frank Chance who first accomplished this feat in 1909, against the Braves. During that season the Braves also drop ped 20 out of 21 to Pittsburgh, so you can see they must have had the complex real bad that 2-5. Two Pasquotank Soldiers Enroute to U. S.
