WHITE FALCON Friday, August 13, 1965 BANTAM SIZE—Though not much bigger than the bat himself, little T. Jones takes a mighty poke while P. Scott and umpire Chief Jones watch the ball sail. Little League Caps Season With All-Star Double-Header by D. J. McNamara The All-Star teams looked real good, even playing on a cool day. The big day of baseball was started off by the eight-to-elevel-year-olds. In this game the “D” team, coached by Wright, beat the “C” team, coached by Suisse, by a 19 to 8 score. It was a well played game, more so than the score would indicate. Rogers, Misner and Jones combined for the win, with Hoffman, Bush and Voorhees'^ taking the loss. In the second half of the double- header, the bigger boys had a chance to show their stuff playing on balanced teams. Henderson, coaching the “A” team, succumbed to the “B” team, coached by Marse. The margin of victory was 10 to 4 score. Winning Pitcher Grover, with good support from his teammates, was the winning pitcher while Babnau and JPierre combined for the losing team. This game showed what these boys can do playing in strictly their own age group. Soper had a triple and Grover a solid double. The biggest thrills some daring baserunning, however, some daring base, however. Fine Teamwork The day was topped off by some fine teamwork by the Little Lea- gue mothers. Their combined ef- forts kept the chow lines running smoothly in the banquet which fol- lowed the game. It was during this banquet that the players, coac- hes, umpires and managers were presented their awards for their individual efforts during the sea- son.
