Mad Scramble Gives Hope To Late League Starters n. utau scrumuie ill lue nail lax-Warren baseball standing: has given hope to the early season downtroddens and ha: shaken the early-season leadei from its perch atop the loot standings. Littleton, which was unde feated and sporting a 3-0 recorc in conference action until lasl Thursday, has gotten only twc hits in its last two outings And Warrenton, which had ab sorbed two initial defeats, ha< bounced back at the expense of the league leaders to move into contention. The Blue Jays, who had won five games over all, were vic tims of Clinton Neal's two hittT on last Thursday as Warrenton rolled to a 5-0 vic tory, and on Tuesday the Jays failed to get a hit as they ran into Enfield's Gene Gardner who shut them out. 12-0. Warrenton saved some of its strength until Tuesday when it brushed aside Davie, 2-1, to leave the Blue Devils with a 3-2 mark in II-W competition. At Littleton, Coach Treacher Parker's nine found the win ning note after getting a boost from Neal, who went the dis tance on the mound, striking out 13 and walking five. Warrenton gathered eight hits off Harris and put them with Six Littleton errors in gaining the verdict. Billy Mitchiner and Neal each got two safeties to lead the War renton attack, aided by Harris' two walks and hindered by his four strikeouts. Bobbitt and Phelps each singled for the losers. Returning to their home dia mond on Tuesday, the Jackets sent sophomore Billy Benson to the mound to face senior Buck Dickens in a pifcher's duel in which each hurler al lowed only three hits.
