Show B.D.AI FLASHES by Jim Abplanalp With the weather warming up, the softball competition gets hotter. hot-ter. Last week saw some real fireworks in tho BDAA swat circuit. The strong Lark nine continued to lead the league with narrow victories over No. 2 Firemen Fire-men 8-7 and Copperton 5-4. Both games were thrillers, and the outcome was in doubt -till tho last man was out. A & M copped a couple of easy ones over the Eagles and U. S. Mines crows. The A & M boys are plenty tough and expect v to make a determined drive for that play off round. The Lions after losing their first two games, are back in the thick of the race after wins over the hapless Eagles 27-2, and U. S- Mines 12-3. Anything can happen yet. Perhaps the underdogs under-dogs can knock the leaders over a time or two, and the outlook may change overnight. Any of the boys on the short end of the win column are capable of. turning turn-ing the tables, so they're not conceding anything yet. Thursday the Lions and Firemen Fire-men were to meet. Copperton engaged the A & M and U. S. Mines journeyed to Lark to try and administer the first defeat to the league leaders. These games played at the new field in Copperton are drawing a lot of interest. It'll do you good to watch the boys fight it out, come on out, 6 p.m. every Tuesday Tues-day and Thursday. Bingham can well be proud of the fine showing their boys made in the all-star prep contest at Ogden Monday night. Billy Boron, Bor-on, the mighty mite of prep athletics ath-letics was picked as the top star of this all-star game, and will I represent Utah at the Ail-American boys game at Chicago in August. The other Bingham boys who took part, turned in equally fine games arfd we're proud of their performances. |
