Johnny Alvares, Recreio chucker, and "Snuff" Bailey, Tulsa's moundsman, exchanged pitch for pitch, but the Tulsamen were able to slap out ten hits to Recreio's six. Álvares struck out one and Bailey whiffed two. First on balls-Bailey belted a Ruthlan clout over right-fielder Zinho six Alvares five.

Nine errors chalked up against Tulsa and six against Recreio showed that both teams were off colour and playing much below their ustial' standard. As one of the Recreio Bees remarked after the game, "Recreio's drama of errors and bonehead plays cou-

EASY WINS IN GIRLS' MATCHES

(By "GRANDSTAND")

In the opener at Prince Ed- ward Road Wahoos had an easy 7-3 victory over the Pir- ates, and connected for nine: hits off Maudie Read's offer- ing, while the Bucs only ac- counted for one single, by Nozadzo, off Rozy.

It is evident that Rozy must have been practising a lot lately to hold the Pirate sluggers to one hit and striking out four.

finger Rosy was on form and able to hold Coach Winglee was evidently sure that down the enemy, otherwise he would not have taken ạ chance! Just the same, when Pirates scored three runs in the fifth and the green-shirted owls were blanked in the

seventh, Winglee put Terese Noronha on the mound in the seventh to make sure of a victory,

Maudie Read was not so fortunate on the slab. She was nicked for nine hits, includ- ing doubles by Terese Noronha and Jeanne Yolle.

The Pirates put up a good fight but they lacked the necessary oomph both on the fleld and with the willow wand.

In the second game Wildcats had their own way, burning the base paths to give the Baby Paulliers a very convincing 22 to 4 walloplug.

Irene Tavares pitched a grand game for the losers, but the "big Berthas" of the Wildcats, who slapped out no fewer than 19- hits, aided by 13 Panther bobbles, were too much A load for the diminutive flinger: Nevertheless she fanned five Wildcats and only walked three. Lily Mar allowed seven hits and walked three.

Doria Mar homered and Lily Mar tripled for the longest hits of the tussle. M. Campos was the only Panther who showed any prowess with the bat. She singled twice in tour times to bat.
