"COPARANA"
An ondisputed leader in More
head Citr Softball league play
showed itself this week when the
"Lire*" team whipped the Jaycees
twice to up their wonlost slate to
5-0 and establish themselves a good
.408 lead over their nearest con
tender, the American Legion.
The Legion also showed its pow
er by winning three games, two
from Tide Water and one from
the hapless Jaycees, leaders in the
first haif-season of play and con
sistent losers in the second half.
Monday night the "Lires" took
both games of a doubleheadei v/ith
the Jaycees, winning the first -5 1
behind Glenn Rose's pitching and
the second 11-6 with Ray Garriss'
pitching Bernard Leary's iron
mahattempt failed ps he lost both
games.
Charles Freeman led the losers
at the bat in the first game with
a homer with one on, while Tarver
McKnight, with a double, headed
the winners. Rose, with a triple,
led the winners' hitting in the sec
ond. ?
Both games saw the "Lires" be
hind by a 4-0 score in the early
innings only to come back and
show their strength to win. In ?
the second game Leary relieved
Sam Guthrie on the mound in the I
eighth with the score tied si* all. |
From there it was the "Lires"
game as they made five runs to
cop the victory.
Tuesday night's twin bill saw
the Legion win the first, 12-4, and
the second, 13-9, to push the Tide
Water team from second place
and raise the Legion percentage |
to .592. Gibat pitched the first (
victory and Beaver the second,
with Dugee and Guthrie losing the
two games. 1
Meeks led the Legion hitting in '
the first game with a triple and a
double. Logan was the leading
hitter in the second game tagging 1
a homer with one on for the losing 1
Tide Water team. 1
Hie Jaycees started out with a
bang Wednesday nigflt taking a '
10-2 lead by the third inning. Skin- !
ner Chtlk, Jr., was pitching for I
the Legion at the time and was
relieved by Gibat.
The first Jaycee batter against
pitcher was able to control the 1
opposing team, allowing only six 1
more hits the rest of the game.
The final rally came in the bottom
of the e'ghth when the Legion
made seven runs, five of them with
two men out.
Louis Dunn's double with the
bases loaded provided the winning
margin in the last, of the eighth.
Maribella with three for six also
led the winners. Leary was again
the losing pitcher.
Last night the "Lires" and Tide
Water met. Monday night the
Jaycees and Tide Water will meet.

Mud for Amy
ITHACA, N. Y. ? (AP) ?
A team of Cornell scientists is
studying mud (or the U. S. Arttty.
They h*ve found some hitherto
unrecognized forces at work in
common dirt. The purpose is to
learn to strengthen soil without
tons of cement or other mixtures
by the school and the PTA.
Prof. McLendon states that the
present school year .will be a very
strenuous one, and will require
the all-out support of each parent
and citizen in the community. It
is therefore imperative that all
PTA members and community ci
tizens make themselves available
for the Ilrst meeting of the school
year.

In some clays the tiny particles

Differences in mineral composi

particles. Many forces originate
at the surface between a particle
and water around it. Through

large influence on the solidific
ation of mixture. Clays also can
change their strength, according
to what contaminates their sur
