Strengthened Union Team Beats Ail-Star Mlushbailers Score 9-6 The strengthened Local 189 teain proved ta be a little too good * for the Ail-Stars as they defeated the féague's best by a 9-6 score at the high schaol grounds Sat- urday evening in anc af the best exhibitions ai softball displayed this year. This benefit gaine for * George Piper lived up toanai ex- pectations, and na adverse criti- cism was brought forward. Bath teams played superb bail, particularly sa in view ai the iact that many ai the players ,were uiiaccustamed ta each other's in- dividual type ai play. This is even more true in the case of the Ail- Y Stars, their tcam being made up af players from the High Schoal, 4 Mike's Place, Goodyears, Countice and Salem. .jixnxy Powers of High Schoal did the pitching for Local 189 and turned in a wonderful evening's work by halding the usuafly hard- hitting players on the Ail-Star team, ta 6 runs. In aur books, at least, Jimmny was the star ai the encounter. The Ail1-Stars started with a two run. rally in the first inning as Mason drew a walk, and went ta third when "Porky" Osborne bashed out a double, thc f irst ai his three hits ai the gainé. Mason and Osborne bath sconed when Colweil placed ane out to right field. Neither team scored again un- til the second hall of the second inning when John Moorcnaft drew a pass, wcnt ta second on a passcd bail, and scored on Pawers' single.- ta right field, making thc score 2-1 for the Al-Stars. In the upper hall ai thc fourth frame, hits by Dave Osborne, Clark, Gay and BagneIl gave the Unionites four nuns.

The Union shaved another faur runs aven thc plate in the next inning as they took full advantagc ai three misplays by Uic Ail- Stars. These errons,, combined with twa hits, gave them a 9-2 lead. L In the meantime Powers was setting up a raw ai goose-eggs i the score book for the Ail-Stars. Aiter their two runs in Uic first inning Uiey were held scoreless until Uic seventh. Only one run- ner reached third base during that trne. That was i the fourth inning whem Daug Mcllveen singled ta leit field, went ta sec- ond on a passcd bail, then went ta third on Rickard's ily ta Moon- crait in leit field. John obligingly helped Powers ont ai bis predica- ment by promptiy catchmng two more fly bans and holding Mc- Ilveen on third in Uic proccss. ta retire the-side unassisted. Jerry Peterson, who had reliev- cd "Ace" Richards aften Uic iourth inning, held Uic Localites scoreless froin Uic sixth ta Uic ninth ining, and fanned six ion Uic four innings he was in Uic box. The Ail-Stars scored twa mare in Uic seventh as Piper singled and Don Maman got on base by virtue ai an error. Clarence Os- borne poked out a scorchimg triple ta centre field ta send Piper and Mason aven Uic plate with caun- ters. In Uic eighth, Ken Werry got his only bit ai Uic evening as be singled ta centre, went ta' second on a passcd bail and scored on Art Richards' single tbrough third base, making Uic score 9-5 for Uic Unianites. Piper tripled ta start Uic ninth inning and scored on an ove- throw ta second base, thus end- ing scaing procivities for Uic gaine.

But if there wee any cx- ceptional effulgences on Uic dia- rnond, we'd say Uiey were Jimmny Powcrs and Clarence Osborne. Jimmy tumned back Uic Ail-Star siuggers nobly, and despite Uic iact Uicyf did nick himn for eleven hits, Jimmy was weil-nigh in- vincible in Uic pinches.

This series was tlie beit Iwo ont ai Uirec with Uic Merchants winning two in a raw easily. When Uic season opcncd, Uic Foresters looked, on paper, like Uic teain ta beat.
