Summer Softball League SEMINOLES PRACTICALLY ASSURED OF THIRD TITLE IN TWO SEASONS

By "TIME-OUT"

The complete stranger who sat in the stands right in front of your humble correspondent was not far off the mark when he remarked that pitcher Dave Malig of the Angels would not last more than three innings against the Seminoles.

Sad to say, sad that is to the Angels, this turned out to be the case for in a disastrous second inning the Junior champions applied the pressure and went on to score nine valuable runs in their 10-3 victory which practically assures them of another championship, their third in two

seasons.
