Church Softball Loop This Week Bill Thrower's Hilling Help Fare-sellers By Wilbur Jackson The Methodist Softballers are’ way uut in front the pack in the Church Softball League and threaten to unseat the defending champion Christian team. The Methodists are currently on a five game winning streak. Pacing the team are Oswald Stalls, pitching, ^ and Rill Thrower, the heavy hit ter. The Methodists have a very good infield and if the boys con tinue to hold behind Stalls’ pitch It Takes "Know lloir" AND WE HAVE IT HEATING anil — Sheet Metal Work LENNOX AIR CONDITIONING Approved JOHNS-MANVILI.E Roofing Conlrnelor WHITE'S HEATING AND SHEET METAL WORKS P.

In second place we find the Baptist team which started the season with a bang winning the first three games and are now on the slide dropping their last three. One of them was a no-hitter to the Methodists. Should the Bap tists find themselves and settle down there should he a tight race for the top spot at the close of the season.

The defending Champions are in third place with a two-four re cord, three games behind the leaders. Doing the pitching again this year is Junie Peel. The Christians have a well balanced ball club with a few heavy hitters. Usually the games the Christians play are long because they do an awful lot of scoring. Should the pitching and fielding improve the Christians will give the rest of the teams trouble. I nthe cellar we find the Epis coterians with a one-five "record. The Episcoterians won their first game Monday night. They drop ped the first five games. The main trouble has been the prob lem of the pitching staff. Ernest Meats, the regular hurler, has been lost to the squad since the first game and will be lost pos sibly for the next month due to illness. The Episcoterians came up with a slowball hurler. F'ttz hugh Fussell Monday night and Money Wilh Cake Mr. .1. Edward Corey was the winner of a beautifully decorated J cake last evening at a prize ilraw I ing conducted by the Boy Scouts | of Troop 27. The drawing, held at. Davis' I Pharmacy, climaxed a week of I hard work on the part of the boys | of Troop 27. A great number of i tickets were sold and they re | ceived many nice donations. The | cake for the drawing was donated by Mrs. R. H. Clayton. Jr. Mr. R H. Clayton announced last night that the boys had made $113.25 on the raffle and it would go towards financing a Scouting trip for the troop Following the drawing the troop expressed its thanks to those making donations or helping in their campaign and expressed ap preciation to those who helped were able to down the Bapists four to three. Highlight of the game came with the bases loaded and nobody out. Roger Critcher was at bat for the Baptists and hit to Reg Simpson who was play ing third base. Simpson caught the ball tagged the runner and threw to second base for the first triple play the league has had. In the other contest the Methodists downed the Christians eleven to nine. Bill Thrower brought in the winning run with a long home run. .So far the league is experienc ing fair success but flue to the laek of attendance the costs of the lights are a heavy burden to the league. The League operates as a non-profit organization and the admission charge is only to de fray the expense of the lights. A lot of fun is had bv the fans and players at the games and it is a shame the way the citizens of the! town don't support the teams, j Why not come out to the park to-1 night and root your church team on to victory. Not only tonight; but every night. Its a grand eve-1 ning of entertainment.

Farmers' Girdles Nay Be in Style At first blush it seems a bit in congruous that big. husky farm ers and weather-toughened hired men should wear girdles, but a further perusal and careful cogi tation lead on to conclude that perhaps there is more to a girdle than meets the eye. Dr I. T Fruin, Normal, Illinois, has come out with the headline proposal that farmers wear girdles. Seems that the doctor has had consider able experience with treating aching backs. He said this in a recent speech. “Those of us who see farmers rather frequently in a professional capacity are struck with the multiplicity of com plaints and definite lesions which we have felt were traceable di reetly to the violent shaking up! that a farmer gets riding tractors over rough ground." them in their recent waste paper; drive.
