June 12 at city hall for a discussion of the new youth program with all Bingham district businessmen, business-men, persons or organizations which may be interested.

The direct idea is to equip and maintain an amateur baseball team in some near league. (Amateur (Ama-teur Federation league has been contacted.) These boys will be under competent guidance, and will be given every chance to develop their abilities and sportsmanship. sports-manship.

Lotsa runs, lopsided scores, pitchers' pitch-ers' duels or no decisions? Well we got 'em all. Last week the BDAA softballers really put on a display. Copperton and the Eagles staged stag-ed a free for all track meet that wore out a number of pencils and scorers just making the runs as the sprinters loped over home plate. The Eagles, probably dazed daz-ed from watching a continual Copperton blur around the bases, finally succumbed 33 to 8. Just wait till these boys get in shape. It was a different story at Lark though, as the strong A & M crew won a hard fought game 3 to 1 over the LaTk Lions. In the third game, nobody has won yet. Watta contest, 9 to 9 at the end of the ninth and 9 men on each team rarin' to play all night if necessary. Anyway, the Lions and Firemen couldn't reach a decision de-cision after 9, or was it 11 innings, inn-ings, so the game was called off on account of darkness, wind, rain or something and everybody departed. Tuesday's games were rained out, but the boys take the field again Thursday (ma"be in boats). Managers of all softball teams are required to present team rosters ros-ters at the special meeting June 12. No limit is being set on number num-ber of players per team, but men will not be allowed to play for any team other than the one he signs on. Only 15 awards will be presented the winning team regardless re-gardless of number of players on roster. Won Lost Tied A & M 2 0 0 Firemen l 0 1 Lark i i o Copperton l l 0 Lions 0 1 1 Eagles 0 2 0 |
