After Wilma Abrahms. who was pitching right out of this world, had struck out the first three "Shamrocks" un to bat in less time ' than it took for them to tret un to the plate, the crowd knew that it was going to be a battle to the death. The "Raiders" made three hits in the first inning and when Bessie College connected with the third one, with Mary Pilge and Loretta Jensen on bases, the fans rose to their feet as one man,- and roared in anticipation of a scoring? run. Battle AH the Way The tension was terrific through out the entire game and the "Shamrocks" put up a stiff fight, although from the moment Wilms stepped into the box they didn't nave a chance. As she struck out batter after batter, and- - as the Shamrocks" blocked hit after hit of the "Raiders", the crowd went wild. Finally, in the second half of the sixth inning, with two on bases, Pat Krohn made another sacrifice and Gardner came home for the first scoring run. The "Shamrocks" fumbled the ball and Pat made it safe to first. Coach Phil lips called for the "squeeze" play and Ann Lamb pulled it beautifully to bring Leona College in.' Krohn was out at third and one more out ended the inning with a score of 0 in favor of the Raiders". Wilma stenned into the box at the beginning of the seventh and that was all, folks. She struck them out, and the championship was ours. Fans Went Wild Veterans in the stands were whooping like school boys. There has never been such a game. The entire team was eager. What few balls the "shamrocks" did connect with were pulled down and slammed to first before had time to drop their bats. they Wilms Abrahms is by far and away the most outstanding pitcher to ever come out of the Utah Girls Soft ball Leajue.
