Softbell Team Plays ty'~ Ten Inning Game Two games were played last week by the Wonder Lake Softball team. On Sunday, the game between the local team and the Johnson Sea Horses of Waukegan was one of the most outstanding in tlje local team's history. The score was tied at the seventh and it was necessary to 1 play ten innings before a winning score of 9 to 8 was established by the Waukegan team. This grueling game was pitched by George FVeund with Kespeth Fossler acting as catcher. The "Hitless Wonder," who prefers anonymity, surprised himself and his teammates by getting a single with two men on bases--both men scored. The team traveled to Camp Duncan near Volo for the secona where they won 24 to 12. The team lineup is as follows: Gil Rhode, ss; Kenneth Fossler, so; Dick Wilhelm, lb; Ronnie Wilhelm, If; Jack Kraemer, 2b; Bud Schau, cf; George Cross, rf; Les Krieger, 3b; Oob Lawrie, eatcher, and George Freund, pitcher who is also a fine batter with a total of eight runs for the season. In the Volo game, Freund was plenty hot--got three hits in five times at bat. Dick and Ronnie Wilhelm each scored' a homer as did the "Hitless Wonder," who is ' trying to live down that scornful | appellation. | Sew 'nd Sip Club | Gives Farewell Party I The "Sew 'nd Sip"* eltili «*«•" a picnic for Mr. and Mrs. Gerald Alle , tag at Fontana on Thursday after ; noon of last week.
