Brewers' Fourth Straight Victory

Errors And Defeat For Chung Hwa Maroons

Nine Runs On One Hit!

(By "Ball Fan”)

Dangling around with the desperate efforts of the local baseball loop to mush through with a perfect weekend card, that liquid - producing boogy man, Jupiter Pluvius, again foozled ball fans at the Chatham Road ball park on Saturday, with a momentarily outburst, to give the ball dia- mond, ball game and ball players that soggy, "what's the use" atmosphere. To finish off the dreary weekend ball picture, rain poured down in a steady Sabbath all-day stream, completely wash- ing out the Sunday two-game card.

H.B.'s beer-bulging Brewers took their third straight high-scoring game and their fourth straight win of the year, with a copy-written 10-1 triumph over the Chung Hwa Maroons.

Putting on the pressure in steady going fashion, the
