Tickets may be purchased town or at the gate. BDAA members, just show your card. Legion game at 5:30 p.m. BDAA vs Magna at 8:15. ATHLETICS DOWN MAGNA 7-- LOSE TO TIMPS 6-- 3 At Magna last Sunday BDAA Athletics took a 7 to 4 decision from the home nine in a benefit game for young Gary Archibald. Lefty DeCol hurled a fine game, striking out nine opposing hit-ters and showing a lot of im-provement over past starts. The locals turned in a well played defensive game and bunched hits for their seven runs. The BDAA players and manager donated their time and services for this game and were proud to help the fans give this fine youth a new start. Wednesday, BDAA lost a close one to the Provo Timps at the hitter's park 6 to 3. The Timps chased over three runs in the first inning, but the game settled into a pitchers battle for the re-maining frames as Poulsen, Bing ham hurler, held the Timps slug- - ' gers well in check. Bingham tied up the game in the fifth on a walk to Poulsen, a sacrifice by Brown, a Timp error, a single by Crump after Green had walked and a single by Knudsen. Crump was thrown out on a close play at home and Ray lofted a long drive to deep center to end the local's uprising. After five score-less stanzas the Timps chased over one run in the 7th and 2 in the last frame as Hankier, who relieved Morgan in the fifth, held the locals to two bingles. BDAA outplayed the Timp nine defen-sively but just couldn't punch over runs with men on base. Boren, Crump, Brown and Green turned in sparkling fielding plays to assist Poulsen in his fine hur-ling chore. Bingham plays host to Magna here Sunday August 7 in the last of a double feature and will meet Brigham City at Copperton on Thursday, August 11. MEETING TUES., AUG. 8 The regular meeting of the BDAA board of directors will be held at the City hall, Tuesday, August 8 at 6:30 p.m. SOFTBALL SLANTS And it came to pass! or some-thing similar, but anyhow as the second half of the BDAA soft-ba- ll chase got underway, unde-feated A & M were no longer undefeated. The first half winners started out with a close 10 to 8 win over B R & S G but then it happened. The flying Eagle nine after de-feating Emerald club 11 to 3, sharpened their claws and tore into the A & M outfit to giW them their first loss 8 to 3. Gem-me- ll club matched the Eagles' performance by winning born games against the Merchants and Emerald club 12 to 2 and 9 to 6 respectively. B R & S G took their other game from the Lions 12 to 1 as the Merchants won over Lark 15 to 1. Lark split their double match, winning from the Lions, in a slug fest 16 to 10. O ELECTRICAL UNIONS RENEW C0NTRAC1 ! Regular yearly contract neg-otiations between Local No. 1081 at Bingham and No. 1438 at Mag-t"- of the International Brother, jhood ot Electrical Workers, and Kennecott Copper Corp., Utah Copper Division, have been con-cluded, and last year's contract has been renewed for another ' year, according to a joint announ-- ; cement made today bv L F An derson, International representa- tive of the electrical workers, and J. C Landenberger, Jr., director of labor relations for Kennecott's Utah Copper Division. The renewed contract, cover-ing approximately 2(J(J employes will expire June 30, 1950, and is the result of contract negotiations held intermittently the past tiO .days Wage rates, vacation and holiday pay, and all other con-- I tract items will be continued for another year on the basis of the old contn, t. "The proposal for a job evalu-ation program, advocated by the company as the only means of establishing and maintaining a balanced wage structure, will be discussed in pending bargaining meetings with other employee units whose contracts are up for this year", said Mr. Landenberger. "The renewal of the old con-tract", said Mr. Anderson, "has been approved by the member-ship of both locals." O BINGHAM LEGION TEAM WINS STATE TITLE SIXTH TIME After playing consistent ball for three days, the Bingham Am-erican Legion team won the state Legion baseball title for the sixth time and also the right to repre-sent the state in the regional Le-gion plavoffs at Winslow, Ariz., August 14, 15, 16 and 17. In the opening day at the Help-er tournament, Bingham had their work made easy when they came up with a 23 to 1 victory over Aurora. Sumnicht and Cow-de- ll combined to limit Aurora to four hits while the Bingham boys pounded their pitchers for sev-enteen hits. In the semi-final- s Bingham got some great pitching behind Mon-toy- a and Sumnicht to take a 4 to 0 victory from a good Nephi team. No runs were scored until the seventh inning when Bing-ham scored three and added an-other in the eighth. The final game between Bing-ham and Salt Lake Post No. 2 was a thriller and played before a capacity crowd at the Helper ball park. Bingham started the fireworks by taking the lead 3 to 0 early in the game. By the sixth Salt Lake Post No. 2 took the lead and kept it until the big ninth. In this inning Bingham exploded and were not stopped until seven runs had crossed the plate. In the last of the ninth, Salt Lake came back with four runs on some well hit balls. At this point Ed Gaythwaite re-placed Sumnicht on the mound and put out the fire on a neat double play executed by Gara-han- a, Sanchez and Sluga. During the three days of the state tournament an outstanding player medal was awarded by Otto Weisley. Warren Sumnicht of the Bingham team was the recipient. r s MAM FAMILY r Irker unveiled I MONDAY NIGHT 7? iite'-.ii'o-n ceremonies ,nJav. August 1 on the I , .he R.

PLAYGROUND NEWS BASEBALL Baseball playground is now coming down the home stretch with one week left and one of the most successful years so far. Teams in all three leagues are now battling it out for the cham-pionships of their leagues. In the Senior league the Bing-ham Merchants are pressing hard and their fast upsurge is partly due to Ross Oscguera and Don Mattson who keep this club hust-ling. The Bingham team who have the edge in winning quarters have two boys who have come a long ways this year in Dick Ro- - blez.and Clair Rager. In the Popsicle league we have: three brothers playing by the name of Markovich. George, who is the oldest and the twins, Ron-nie and Don. These boys are com-ing ball players and very easy to work with. Another boy who is always on the playground and is one of the better players in the little league is Larry Bush. Larry pitches and plays infield for the Copperton Midgets. Two weeks ago we had a form-er playground member back to visit us from Elko, Nev. He was Don Gust, who Is staying there with his brother. The playground boys were pulling lor our Legion team all week and congratulates them for winning the state championship. Until next week this is it from your baseball playground. There is not much more time in which to see your boys in action this year, so make it a point and come and visit us soon. AGAPITO OKNELAS FUNERAL THURSDAY Funeral services for Agapito Ornelas, 47, of Bingham, who died Tuesday in a Salt Lake City hospital of natural causes, were conducted yesterday (Thursday) et 1 p.m. at 36 East 7th South, Salt Lake City by Don II. Smith, ' president of the Mexican branch of the LDS church. A son of Piocinto and Franclsca Velasquez Ornelas, he was born September 15, 1902, in Jalisco, Mexico. He married Lucy Mor-eno in Salt Lake City on Octo-ber 31, 1927. Mr. Ornelas moved from Ari-?on- a to Utah in 1922 and has re-sided in Bingham since 1944. He was member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-da- y Saints. lie is survived by his wife and one daughter and five sons. Burial was in the Salt Lake City cemetery. o Sports Here and There by Al Ablett So "Buddy" Thomas joined Rex Lanes' Bum of the month club when Rex stopped him in the second round Wednesday night at the fair ground. How a fellow like Thomas could get his name in the Ring magazine is past me. He was in no condition to fight, and had no actions that might lead one to believe he had ever boxed, anything but a friendly match in the basement with some neighbor. There isn't any question that Lane is a comer, he has already shown he could hit and that he was able to take a punch in winning the A.A.U. heavyweight champion-ship, and in beating Perko, the Golden Glove champion. But so far in his pro career he has had no opposition. I know he can't be rushed too fast. But why not get him some rough tough young-sters instead of fellows so old, they can't hold up their hands. He is going to fight "Buddy" Walker next Wednesday the 10th. Now "Buddy" has been a good boy and on his record he should be a real test for young Lane, but I think it is the duty of those responsible to see whether or not he is in condition to put up an honest exhibition. Because it will only take about one more like the Thomas affair to kill Lane deader than a DoDo, us a drawing card in the boy's own state. Fortunately the rest of Wednesday's card was away a- -, bove par. Every fight on the suppoi ting card was a honey. The Industrial league second half rate has' settled down to j what looks like a three club race (between Provo, American Fork and Magna. I doubt whether magna has enough pitching to take them all the way. Provo has just signed Wakenshaw, the Salt Lake boy who has been with Ta-com- a in the P. I. A. class B league, and American Fork has Wood-bury, the Cedar City boy just released by the Bees. Helper needs a short stop and another pitcher, because the secudle is against them with only a two-ma- n staff. Bingham hasn't won one the second half but they did take .Magna in an exhibition game played for Gary Archibald. De-- j Col looked real sharp in this cne. Stuckenschneider and Poul-use- n have pitched good enough to win if their mates could have gotten a couple of hits at the right time. But the boys have improved and have played en-- j tortaihing games every time out. ' See you next week.
