Inseam Ball Is Favored For Softball Play The 12- or 14-inch inseam ball is favored by the official softball rules committee of the United States for tournament play, according ac-cording to a communication recently re-cently received by city recreational recreation-al director Lob Collins. The 1-inch ball is used from the 60-foot diamond. dia-mond. Provo city leagues have been using the outseam, 12-inch ball, in accordance with a previous communication com-munication from the national committee. com-mittee. Since then, however, a survey made by the rules committee com-mittee has shown that the 12-inch inseam ball with the 60-foot base, lines has been the game most popular. pop-ular. Mr. Collins advises that city, leagues may use either the inseam in-seam or the outseam, 12-inch ball but urges that teams change over, to the inseam bail as quickly as possible. This is in view of the fact that the state tournament games will be played with the insteam ball, and any teams here, which might enter will be handicapped handi-capped unless they change over and get used to playing with the inseam ball.

FOREST FIRES BREAK OUT (Continued from Page One) of relief and insurance to be administered ad-ministered in the same manner, that the bill provides. 2 Immediate passage by the next congress of the farmers relief re-lief bill, introduced in the last congress: and until that bill be-whole, be-whole, in the history of the Forest Service, according to Mr. DeMoisy. "Early matured vegetation is as dry as tinder and requires only a spark to start a conflagration,''' Mr. DeMoisy stated. The hot weather and drying winds make fires spread rapidly. Campers Warned It is urged that campers and travelers in the mountains exercise exer-cise the greatest care to prevent fires by putting out their camp fires thoroughly and avoid throwing throw-ing burning tobacco and matches in inflamable material. Most of the fires are caused by man, said Mr. DeMoisy, and occur more frequently over week-ends when visitors to the forests are more numerous. The Utah county commissioners, in regular session on July 10, agreed to extend the fire district under state law to include all the watershed and mountainous land in the Eastern part of Utah county adjoining the Wasatch, Manti and Uintah National Forests. Previously the district Included only the acre around Mt. Tim-panogos Tim-panogos and the mountains directly dir-ectly east of Provo and Springville. Several bad fires occurring in Spanish Fork canyon this year induced in-duced them to enlarge the district to save watersheds and livestock forage outside the forest.

Here ne American L,eagu players win by PRQVO BEES WHIP LEHI Flawless fielding, heavy batting and the good right arm of Elmo Castleberry combined to give the Provo Bees u 15 to 8 victory over a luckless Lehi team which couldn't could-n't seem to cover the territory where the Bees were hitting. Led by the heavy sticking of Wells Hoover, Bee first sacker, who whammed out 5 hits in 6 trips, the Provo outfit collected 21 hits altogether from Herb Edwards, Glen Chilton and Charley Slater. Backed by an alert infield and an excellent outfield, Castleberry allowed al-lowed 12 hits, 7 of these coming in the last three frames. The Lehi team was hitless and scoreless in the first three innings. The Bees started on their scoring scor-ing rampage in the first inning when Leo Smith was pegged in the middle of the back with one of Edwards' straight balls, stole second sec-ond and was slugged home by the hard-hitting Hoover. Kiotous Fourth It became a riot in the fourth after the Bees had scored once more in the third. Cody started things out with a single, and Castleberry followed with a lusty three-nagger, JShurtlifi .and Baum doubled and after Smith fanned, Hoover and Westover singled and Overly was on by way of an error before Cody was out on a grounder to third base to retire the side. Six runs came in. The Bees kept on scoring in the fifth, sixth and seventh with four runs and scored three times in the eighth when Shurtliff and Hoover doubled and Castleberry hit a one-base clout. Turn About Lehi was by no means idle in the game, touching Castleberry for three hits and three runs in the fourth inning, three more hits and two runs in the seventh and three runs in the eighth, when Joe Colledge tripled and Turner hit a two-bagger. Colledge added to his game by making a remarkable pickup of Shurtliff's grounder in the second. Turner was struck twice by pitched balls from Castleberry, who demonstrated a teasing hook and excellent control. The Lehi hurlers had plenty of stuff on the ball, but, especially Chilton, didn't last.
