As it turned out, the local kids barely squeezed through to a 6-5 win. Jumping into a first frame three run lead on ome hit and a trio, of Campbellyille miscues, the Corbett crew added another in the third and two in the fifth to compile their total. Actually, they were able to touch Roberts for only five hits, two each by Don Rutledge and Chic Sale and a singleton by Jim Scarrow, and Were scarcely justified in becom- ing a bit over confident. This fact was brought home bard in the fifth, when the yis- itors plated three markers, two of them unearned, and again in the sixth and ninth, when they chased single counters across the rubber.

HERRICK Local Representative PHONE 802W Vaunted Pilots Fail To Overpower Oaks Although Washington Pilots arriYed in town Mnday to the strains of much advance fanfare, which built up substantially as they plated six runs in the first inning, the U.S. Negro loop club tapered off quickly as Oakville Oaks fought back to a 9-9 tie in an interesting Wallace park ex- hibition tilt. Some 400 fans groaned as the visitors combined scratch singles and errors with a pair of lusty blows to forge well to the front in their first turn at the bat. But the Pilots, playing their first game in Canada, could click for only three more markers during the rest of the encounter, while the Oaks ran wild for seven runs in the third and two more in the fourth to even things up. When it was all over, the locals had outhit the Pilots by 11 safeties to 10, and looked every bit as good as the highly touted invad- ers. Feminine Ball Squad Claims Third Victory Nora Volick and Barb Martin held Georgetown hitters well in check, with the latter fanning nine, as Oakville girl softballers claimed their third win of the season by a score. The en- tire winning lineup showed well at the plate for a well deserved victory.

IT SEEMS TO ME (Continued from Page 4) ual gamblers are motivated by the desire to get something for nothing. And this desire is being constantly inflamed by displays of wealth, luxury and high life Which no one can avoid seeing for very long. It is not, perhaps, surprising that people leading the drab uneventful existence that so many do live should seize upon almost any chance of es- cape. A few lucky coupes, they feel, will give them the key to a new life of freedom and delight. Now and then someone actually does win a big sum by gambling, and it is these rare strokes of luck that help keep the gambling mania alive. If one person can win, so can I--so reasons the average gambler. And so, all across the land, thousands upon thousands of ~ workers spend hours poring over racing sheets and endlessly trying to figure out "systems" by which they can consistently win; and throwing away hard-earned money that should go for the necessities of life. Here, if you like, is a concrete example of the oft-quoted line "Hope springs eternal in the hu- man breast" In vain do those who know the ins and outs of the gambling racket demonstrate the infinitesimal _indeed, the virtu- ally non-existent--chances beating it in the long run. Like moths lured by flame the delud- ed multitudes will continue 'to fritter away millions of hard- earned dollars on the remote chance of achieving affluence.
