The classic China Coast Ameri- cans retained their clean slate at the top of the loop with an 8-2 win over the Chung Hwa Maroons.
South China's back-firing red and blue gang took another step downward in their steady drop to the lowly cleaners, chalking up another big-scoring lass, '18-2, as the back to life Mohawks checked in with their first win. of the year.
BRINGING out in its most
convincing manner, and em- phasising in the utmost the class which has Inbelled him as the master moundsman in local baseball circles, Mindanao's slab tossing stylist, Ski Powlawski, ngain breezed in with a starry game from the hillock, holding the Chung Hwa Maroons to three scattered bingles as the champions romped home with another win.
The "Skler" received poor support from a wobbly infield and an "off day outfield who combined to chalk up six bad miscues, but the fast-1 hüller tightened up in the pinches with all the confidence In the world to register the easy win.
