Marion Cowdell pitched a masterful game for Bingham, striking out 16 batters. Bud Fullmer of Delta settled down after the third inning and allow-ed no more runs. A trophy was presented at home plate to the captains of both teams for first and second place following the game by the Utah State High School Athletic Association. B.D.AA FLASHES by Jim Abplanalp Bingham To Battle Forkeri The BDAA entry in the strong Industrial loop will journey to American Fork tomorrow night (Friday) to battle last years' champs. The Bingham nine, af-ter getting off to a slow start, is fast rounding into a formid-able ball club, and will be out to avenge a 16 to 1 massacre at the hands of the Forkers in the league opener. Last week the BDAA nine split it's two games, downing Brigham City 9 to 5, and losing a free for all to the league lead-ing Provo "Flyers" 14 to 8. One wild inning, in which Provo chased across 8 tallies, spelled defeat for the locals. Bingham put on a spirited rally of their own, after trailing 13 to 3, but could not make up for that fourth stanza lapse. Last night the locals were to play hosts to the Helper Merchants at Cop-perton. 'Flyers" Here Tuesday Next Tuesday night, June 3rd, Bingham will meet the leading Provo club at Copperton at 8:15 p.m. For this return engagement with the high-ridin- g Flyers, the local nine should be at top strength, and will be trying to stop the runaway march of the visiting club. Our Prep Champs' As we go to press, the final game of the State "B" Baseball championship is about to get underway. Two of the finest high school diamond nines will clash at the Copperton stadium to de-cide the 1952 Class B champion. Delta and Bingham are the fin-alists in this year's diamond classic, and win or lose, both teams are of championship cal-ibre. Bingham won the right to play the Rabbits from Delta by copping Region honors, then de-feating Judge Memorial and Monroe in division clashes, with their ace left hander, Marion Cowdell, turning in one hit per-formances against both clubs. Excellent support on the field and some very timely hitting has aided the slim portsider, ana the local kids hope to bring that baseball gongfalon back home to Bingham. Baseball Dance Soon The "BDAA Baseball Band-wagon" will start your way pret-ty soon, as we begin a drive to bolster finances to help keep baseball in Bingham, and keep you interested in baseball. The BDAA will put on a Base-ball Benefit Dance sometime in June, and we are going to ask each and every one of you fans to help us out by obtaining a ticket. Let's keep up the fine support we have always receiv-ed in the past, and keep this en-tertainment and recreation pro-gram growing. O ... .... - ... ..mi Sports Mere and There by Al Ablett Cowdell jerked off another one hitter against Monroe to win 11 to 1. The third man up in the first inning hit a home run to left field and that was the end of the Rams for the rest of the day. But with Shipp pitching air tight ball for Monroe it looked like it might be a real close ball game. George Apostal tied up the game in the third with a triple to score the tieing run. The tie was short lived because in the fourth the roof caved in on Shipp. The Miners went on to score four runs in that inning and got six more during the next five frames. In the mean-time Marion Cowdell, Bingham's lean left hander, had found the range and he set the Rams down without a hit or run. He was backed up by about as good de-fensive ball as one will see in high school any where. Ronnie Kastelic made a great play and throw on a ball hit deep in the hole. The Miner shortstop play-ed great ball all during the game. Sonny Robertson at third was another bulwark on defense coming up with high bounders and slow hit balls and with that buggywhip arm getting his man by two and three steps. John Mitchell at second for the Min-ers is the most improved player in high school circles. Coach Santistevan has done a great job with this boy. So much for that game, the big one is today (Wednesday). They go against Delta for the state Class B championship. I am honest I didn't think the Delta boys could get over Spanish Fork with the Jones boy pitching for the Forkers, but they did. So it looks like the Miners have their work cut out for them. The Jack Rabbits have in Fullmer one of the best pitchers in Class B cir-cles. But I must string along with Bailey's Miners, a good kid ball club. You will probably see the results elsewhere in this edition. The local entry in the Indus-trial league won one and lost one in the past week. Vic Stucken-schneid- er beat Brigham City 9 to 6. Vic looked like he did in '50. They lost to Provo 14 to 8. Couldn't stop Provo from having a big inning. Bob Saunders entered the In-dustrial league "hall of fame" last week by pitching a no hit no run game against American Fork. Bob had everything and he was backed up by a strong defense. The former Cincinnati hurler has pitched great ball all year, and to my notion the best curve ball he has ever had. Bob broke a finger in Elko last year and I think the rest was just what his arm needed. That 3 to 0 shut out is just the start for this boy. . One of the best looking boys in the league is Ray Tellerole of Helper. He has always been a good hitter and this year his fielding has caught up with his hitting. Another good looking rookie is Faux of Provo. Mike Wood was a catcher when he was with Helper but Mike turn-ed pitcher last year in pro ball and this year with American Fork he looks like a good one. Another good fight card lined up for Tuesday in Salt Lake. Garth Panter takes on the coast tough middleweight Jiminez and Halloway takes on Keith Nuttall. Bob Ford, the local light heavy, takes on Sneddin of Ogden. Bob should win. But regardless of the winners this should be a good card. See you next week. AL O OPEN HOUSE WEDNESDAY FOR NEWSWIM POOL The general public is extend-ed a cordial invitation to attend the open house and official op-ening of the newly remodeled Bingham Civic Center swimming pool scheduled to take place on Wednesday, June 4th, from 7:00 to 9:00 p.m. The teen age center and the gym floor will also be open to inspection by the public the same evening. Special guests will be Salt Lake County Recreation board members; Paul Rose, superin-tendent of county recreation and county commissioners. A schedule is being set up for different age groups to use the Cool at different times, and will announced next week. Actual work of reconstructing the pool began March first and was completed in May. The job has been in the planning stage for two years. Cost of the recon-struction is approximately $11,-600.0- 0. The pool is 18 feet wide and 40 feet long and has a complete purification and chlorinating system which meets all state board of health requirements. It has a depth of 26 inches at the shallow-en- d and reaches 68 inch-es at the deep end. The Bingham Lions club with Mayor C. A. Morley and Earl T. James as cochairmen, sponsored the project and contributions were made by the city of Bing-ham Canyon, Salt Lake County Recreation Department, Jordan school district. Kennecott Cop-per Corp., Utah Construction Co. and other local civic organiza-tions. BINGHAM TIPS JUDGE TO TAKE REGI0N2 TITLE The first Judge Memorial bats-man to face Bingham High School's Marion Cowdell scratch-ed a single through the infield and that was the sum total of their attack. Cowdell took over from there and the Miners went on to win 11-- 0. The victory gave Bingham the Region 2 title and the right to meet monroe in the semifinals. The winner playing the winner of the Spanisn Fork-Del- ta game for the state title. Cowdell's masterful one hitter was accomplished with fine field-lin- g support, aided and abetted no little by the 20 Bulldog bat-ters he sent back to the Dench after whiffing. Bingham Downs Monro In Semifinals Marion Cowdell, a slender left-hander, got a scare in the first inning, pulled out of a tight hole in the fourth and pitched Bing-ham to an 11-- 1 victory over Mon-roe in the Class B semifinal game here Monday afternoon. Cowdell served a home run ball to Ram third baseman John Roberts in the first inning and then shut the Rams off without a hit or run the rest of the way. Cowdell was in fine form Monday as he racked up his sec-ond straight one-h- it victory. He held Judge to a lone hit in their playoff game for Region 2 title. Bingham was baffled by Jack Shipp's slants for three innings, then pushed singletons across in the fourth and fifth and scored seven runs in the sixth to break up the game. Cowdell and first baseman" George Apostal were the big . guns at the plate for the win-ners, with Cowdell hitting three for four and Apostal three for five. Apostle hit a triple and double. - It was also the second time in a row that a first-innin- g lapse caused Cowdell to miss a no hit-ter. Pete Chiodo, first man up against him in the Judge game, got the Bulldogs' lone hit. Bud Fullmer, who will start for Delta, combined efforts with Jimmy Porter to hold Monroe hitless early in the season. That sets the title game up as a pitchers' battle, with Delta using Fullmer and Bingham, Cowdell. ROBBERY REPORTED - MONDAY NIGHT On Monday night of this week Adondakis Merc. Co., formerly known as the Lendaris Merc, fell victim to a burglary. En-trance into the store was made by suspending from an open skyline panel. No force was used to gain entrance.

HOLY ROSARY CHURCH Kindergarten Outing A gay and memorable outing was enjoyed by some 71 mem-bers of the Holy Rosary kinder-garten group. The youngsters and their attendants left Bing-ham in the parish bus for a day of fun at Liberty park in Salt Lake City. Once there, they spent their time in the tradition-al manner enjoying the amuse-ment facilities, viewing the ani-mals and eating picnic lunches. Helping Fr.

DAIRY MONTH PLANSJJNDERWAY Dairymen of the Bingham dis-trict area are joining with others throughout the state in commem-orating June Dairy Month be-ginning next week. With store displays, Dairy day at Lagoon on June 10, speeches before civic clubs, and a Dairy Darling contest, dairymen will tell the story of milk s low cost importance to health. General chairman of the observance is Ford Creer of Ogden. A recent public opinion poll showed 55 per cent of those quiz-zed believed milk to be the most nutritious food for their money. Hugh L. Rusch, vice president of the Opinion Research Corpor-ation of Princeton, N. J., recently disclosed this fact. The survey was made among a national sam-ple of adults, said Rusch, "in-cluding the right distribution of people of the upper, middle, and lower income groups; the proper proportion for each age bracket; farmers, professional people, white collar and manual work-ers, men and women." Milk is a low cost food and more than 60 million quarts are being distributed to American consumers every day at prices that have gone up less than oth-er major food groups. U. S. Government cost of liv-ing index figures show prices of all foods --on January 15, 1952 at 232.4 compared to the 1935-3- 9 base of 100, while the home-deliver- ed milk is only 196.0, accord-ing to the Milk Industry Foun-dation, one of sponsors of June Dairy Month.
