Baseball Reports
Tommy Donovan's Beavers, after downing Bob Stewart's Cardinals, continued through the week undefeated and retained top ranking. Bud Bloom's Browns, after dropping the opener, have won three straight and are currently the hottest team in the league. Tony Hoekstra, Brownies' mainstay, out pitched the Tigers' Keith Miller to hang up the only shutout of the season. Then Tony checked the Cards, 8-4, on Friday.
The Tigers, after being held to one win in their first two games, broke loose with eight tallies in the initial game Friday to hammer Ernie Mataset from the hill. From there they beat Lou Swain's Dodgers, 12-4.
Bob Wing of the Dodgers brought his own inimitable brand of ball to the diamond by displaying his strong throwing arm to the assembled multitude.
Last minute standings were: That covers the diamond so far except that the Jersey SO's dropped out of the league with the final full test and Jim Kirkpatrick had a date with Vince Di Maggie's sister over the weekend. The Elections After the lectures on the manner of placing a vote, there was political agitation afoot. Hend of the Young People's Republican Committee is Dave Teeter. Campaigning under the slogan "Come out, come out, wherever you are," any friends of Tom E. are assured of a welcome here. Bob "Studs" Berra leads the Chase Democratic Committee. In a late press release he vows that in spite of any talk to the contrary, his men are completely color-blind, on principle. The class political situation is some what cloudy as of the moment. Harry "Horse" Magnuson has an interesting domestic policy but is vague on the foreign policy. Bob Armstrong's backers are strong but it's early to tell what the situation will produce.
