BarLant Over Marines In World Series, Arceneaux Fans 30, Allows 4 Hits In Win Alley Talk By Annette Babneau Betty Buchanan carried away top honors for the week in the Tuesday Womens’ League with a 168 game and a 459 series. The Tagalongs are in first place followed closely by the Hopefulls. Annette Babneau holds a 153 aver- age to lead the league in that de- partment. Top Slot Team 6 holds down the top slot in the Keflavik Civilian League with the Sand Baggers trailing in second place. Polly Kuipers’449 series was the best for the week and Erla McCoy rolled a 170 for high game on the womens side of the ledger. For the men, A1 Bab- neau captured high game and series with a 208/563. Mixed Couples A tight race is forecast for the Iceland Mixed Couples League with the Sandbaggers in first place and a four way tie for the second position. Jack Warren spun a 185/ 555 to lead the men this week while Annette Babneau’s 185/492 was best for the girls. High aver- age for the men belongs to Hal Hoffman with 181 while Jean Jordan has a 155 average to top the ladies. The Tuesday Womens’ League is in need of women bowlers to sub- stitute. Those interested are asked to call Ruzel Glidewell at Ext. 2266. BarLant, led by the overpower- ing pitching of Ernie Arceneaux, defeated the Marine Barracks in the Keflavik Intramural Softball League World Series last weekend in two games. The series was played Saturday and Sunday at the ball diamond and was broadcast live over Armed Forces Radio by sports commenta- tors Wayne Long and Clate Tor- beck. Scores On Walk The first game started out with the Marines scoring in the first inning on a walk, a hit batsman and two errors. The score remain- ed that way until the fifth when Red Rollinson led off for Bar- Lant with a single. Then with one out, Stan Alexander and Arcen- eaux got on with the help of Ma- rine errors, Rollinson scoring on the second one. Tim Vincent then unloaded a two run single to make the score 3-1. The Marines came up with a run in the eighth when Bob Montieth walked and moved around the bases on two passed balls and a throwing error. But the Marines couldn’t manage Arceneaux and his slants in the ninth inning, so the final score was 3-2 in favor of the BarLant team. No-Hitter Arceneaux had a no-hitter and struck out 15 Marines and the only problem he encountered was wildness as he walked four men. The hitting stars for BarLant were Vincent and Rollinson, each with two hits. Rick Warfel pitched an excellent game, allowing only five hits but sloppy fielding cost him the game. The second game pitted the same two pitchers in a rematch of the first game. The Marines drew first blood when Frank Brotowsky was hit by a pitch, moved up to by Dave Jones third on two passed balls and scored on a fielders’ choice. Bar- Lant came back in their half of the first when Bill McConnell slapped a single to left, stole sec- ond, moved to third on a sacrifice fly and came home on an error to tie the score at 1 all. Marines First Hit The Marines got their first hit off Arceneaux in the third when Bob Russel smashed a triple to center with one out. Arcenaux then settled down to get the next two men without damage. BarLant moved ahead in the fourth when Andy Galipeau led off with a single and moved to third on two throwing errors. Stan Alexander then unloaded a triple to left and he scored on a sacri- fice fly by Arceneaux to give Bar- Lant the lead 3-1. TAKING HIS CUTS—BarLant player Tim Vincent fans on this pitch by Rick Warfel of the Marines during the second game of the World Series. However, Vincent was the hitting star of the first game and his daring base running in the second game helped spark the big BarLant rally that led to the Marine’s downfall. The Marines closed the gap to one run in the sixth when Pete Clingan doubled and came home when Warfel singled. BarLant Explodes The floodgates opened up on the Marines in the eighth inning when BarLant exploded for five big runs. In the eighth, Vincent started the inning with a walk. Then with one out, Rollinson singled, moving Vincent to third. Alexander then hit a dribbler back to the mound for what appeared to be an easy out. But Vincent made a move toward home and Warfel threw home but Vincent moved back to third and everyone was safe. Fred Fredericks cracked a double to left scoring two and another run. McConnell hit a long fly to left to score Fredericks with Arceneaux moving to second. Bob Vargo completed the scoring with a single to right to score Arceneaux with the final tally to make it 9-2. Arceneaux moved the Marines down in the ninth without any trouble to bring BarLant the championship. Big Difference It wouldn’t be fair to credit just one man, but Ernie Arceneaux with 30 strikeouts and a no-hitter and four-hitter in 18 innings, was the big difference. Red Rollinson was the hitting star with four hits in the two games. The fielding gem of the series was made by Second Baseman John Green when he took a hit from Bill Everhart of the Marines during the second game. The star for the Marines was pitcher Rick Warfel who pitched his heart out and with the excep- tion of errors made by him and his teammates, they could have been the winners.
