The field will be lighted that night to focus attention on a scrap between two pace-setting soft hall teams, Canton's American Legion ten with only one loss on its record after 20 games, and the W. 11 L. league's undefeated Boosters. 'I he Canton team has a perfect record in its own loop and has show n con sideratable class in meeting several of the leading out-of-town combi nations. Although the atlcrnnon lilt is between the two Industrial league nines, it is strictly an ol'f-l he-re- j cords affair that will be returned j in kind on Labor Day. w hen I lav- wood county gathers at Canton. All , indications are that Ihe same two Softball teams will meet again that first Monday in September, lor Saturday afternoon. From left to right, front row, 1 hey are: Phil Riddle, Bud White, Jack Alexander, Ken neither are seriously challenged in their own loops. Hazelwood trimmed Champion Y 5-d in their only previous engage ment this season, and the records show a balance of power in favor of the local team. The visitors however, will be pointing towards the chance to topple Hazelwood from its high spot, and have opened up with a faster game during re cent week-ends than they offered earlier in the season. So for two good ball games, re member that it's baseball at 3:30 p. m. and Softball at 7::i().

This signal, which means that a flre is beyond control and all build ings in its path have to be dyna mited, can call out as many as 13 companies of sappers and miners, each company consisting ot about 30 lieutenants who must rush to the spot from their station or home by taxi or some private car and undertake this dangerous work themselves.

If trap nests are used, there should be one for every three or four hens. Canton's American Legion soft ball team will be a hot potato for the Boosters to handle, so if they do il give them credit for a good job. As of last week-end the Le gion had won 12 games in as many starts among the Canton National League teams. Several other teams over the state that are competing for the North Carolina Legion soft ball championship have been play ed by Canton's ten. and of eight games only one was dropped that to High Point when the teams split a two-game series. "Nazi" Miller is Ihe Legion's star hurler. Bob Putnam isn't bad in that line him self, but will face some heavy hit ters in Ihe Canton line-up. Two to When It's Warm Enough Without a Top Coat, i YOU CAR FOR SUER watch would be Russ Allen, who plays shortstop and in the outfield, and Flossie Deweese, third base man. Others listed with the Le gion roster include Franklin at first, Mitchell at second, Spence at third, Sutton behind the plate, Weils, Muse and Rhea in the outfield. Due to the Booster's lack of experi ence with the other than local com petition, the Canton team possibly has slight odds in their favor but one can never be assured that a ball game will go by the book, and the Boosters will have the advant age of playing on their own field. At any rate, it'll be a game well worth seeing, and whatever argu ments it starts can be settled Labor Day.

"They put up the best fight I've ever encountered' said V. T. Crad dock referring to the large bass he recently caught at Hamilton's Lake in . Guilford County. His latest catch consisted of two bass weight ihg approximately 7 and Vi pounds each. Craddock's enthusiasm might well be echoed by tourists at Lake view resorts who are finding that bass are biting, fine; in fact, more than 200 of the species have been caught there in the past tlnee weeks. Martin Allen of Greens boro is still holding the season's record there with his catch of a bass weighing six pounds, nine ounces which he entered in a maga zine s southern r tyroa Division contest. Last season a bass taken from Lakeview won second place in this competition. Reports from the protectors con cerning' fishing reveal that some large brown and rainbow trout have been taken from Wild Cat Lake ranging inlsize from 14 to 23 inches. George Banner offers as evidence a 22 inch brown and 18 inch rain bow trout, i Robin ranks first in the catch along Lumber River. TAKE UP FISHING LADIES, says John Gwalthmey in the Rich mond Times Dispatch, and join your husband as he goes night fish ing. Gwalthmey suggests this idea in encouraging sportsmen to in crease their creel by doing more fishing at night.' To prove the vali dity of his suggestion, he cites some of the large catches being made at night. One reason for night fish ing for rockfish is that these game fish have a definite habit of feeding at night. The same thing applies to other species of fish which quit feeding in the day light entirely when the nights are bright nor do they' fail to take a bait even when the nights are dark. Another point in favor of night fishing is that anglers may leave town after office hours and fish in the cool of evening. So, ladies if you don't trust your husband, take up fish ing and join him on those nightly jaunts. Although night fishing Is not al lowed . in refuges and national parks, there is not a state law pro hibiting it elsewhere. Dayton Plays Lions In Opening Softball Game Here Tonight Unagusta and Tannery Take Close Verdicts In Thursday Night Games Dayton Rubber, with an 18-3 vic tory at the expense of the High School fresh on its record, will take on the Lions in the opening soft ball game tonight. In the second game Pet Dairy and the High School will fight to see which can get their third win of the season. Thursday night there will be no regluar league game, but a top scrap between the Boosters and Canton's American Legion teams will be played as part of the big Fourth of July celebration. The schedule for last nignt opened with the Boosters and Una gusta game, followed by a tilt be tween the Youth Club and Veterans. During the latter part of last week, Unagusta turned on the heat against the High School in the last three innings-to take a close 10-8 verdict, Pressley pitching for the winners. Pet Dairy gave the Tan nery a good scare in the last two innings of the second game Thurs day night, but the leather workers had too much of a lead and took the game 13-9. Both games Friday night were one-sided; the Boosters dropping the Lions 9-0, and Dayton coasted to an 18-3 victory over the High School. Box scores: THURSDAY, JUNE 27 First Game FISHINGi JS A REAL SPORT Perhaps Dover, N. H. High School can boast that it is the only school in the country in which fishing has been instituted as a bona fide sport a high school which teaches and actually features angling. The idea was Initiated by their coach who believes that there is more to fishing than a pole, a hook, and a worm. . It was he who began the sport .there by taking his students on trips to near-by lakes. Fishing may some day be an inter-scholastic sport. with boys competing in teams for fce best catches. Can't you just see those, battling Army and Navy anglers! YOUNa.
