Shining out clearly like one of "Flash Gor-. don's" super - chargers piorcing through the otornal horizon, after last week's dramatic front office upheaval, Mindanao's terrific M, Bagram Shield possessors and champions of the Colony, appear headed for their second straight ponnant with the league season just about rounding the half-way mark. 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 loss, 18-2, as the back to life Mohawks checked in with their first win of the year.

The "Skler" received poor support from a wobbly infield and an "off day outfield who combined to chalk up six und miseurs, hut the fast- baller tightened up in the pinches with all the confidence in the world to register the easy win.
Grandpa Leung's Chinese Maroons had the gashouse mob in a sight "hulin balloo" after outfielder Choy Ping-fan and Bill Chang, frst two men up, had both whiffed in the breeze to start of the 1st inning.
