Hearne Defeats
College Station
Jr. Softballers
College Station’s Pee Wee
softball team received its sec
ond defeat of the year last
night at Hearne as the
Hearne softballers pushed
across six runs in the bottom of
the fifth to take the lead and fin
ish ahead, 10-5.
Twirler Pinkney Cooner of the
local aggregation was charged with
the loss as the winners hit him
for five bingles and took advantage
of nine walks to win the game.
Pitching four hit ball, Kelly
of Hearne was the winning pitcher
and the leading slugger for the
winners, hitting two in four trips
while scoring twice.
Dan Williams, catcher for the
local crew, paced the home team
in hitting with a single in one
time at bat but was walked in
three other trips and scored three
of the loser’s runs.
College Station scored two runs
in the second frame to take the
lead over Hearne, 2-1, and held
the lead until the fifth when the
winners had their big inning. Wil
Hams and Pete Hickman scored, the
initial markers when John Rob’t.
Smith connected with a single.
In the third frame Dave Bon
nen scored after having reached
first on a walk, and Williams
scored the final two runs for Col
lege in the fifth and seventh
frames.
Winning pitcher Kelly whiffed
16 of the College Station batters
and will probably start against the
local team again tonight when they
play on the lighted softball field
at 8 p. m.
Chicago—(A 5 )— John Sarowski’s
trouble is that he is too big a man
for his job. For years, whenever
the City Hall boilers needed clean
ing, he crawled inside and went to
work. But three new boilers have
been purchased. The doors, 12 by
16 inches, are too small for a man
of Sadowski’s size—241 pounds.
Doaker To Start Tonight
In All-Star - Eagles Game
Chicago, Aug. 11 —(A 5 )— A streamlined squad of all-stars, the
pick of last year’s outstanding collegiate players, oppose the Philadel
phia Eagles, twice champions of the National Football League, in
flood lighted Soldier Field tonight.
A crowd of 90,000 is in prospect fop the season’s first major
football game.
Clear, cool weather; with the temperature in the low 60’s is fore
cast for the 7:30 p. m. (Central Standard Time) kickoff.
The professional champions have had all the best of the all-star
scrambling in previous years, winning nine times and tying twice.
But in this 17th annual spectacle, the all-star squad may be the best
of all. Instead of 70 players, the 1950 stars were restricted to 50.
Instead of training at suburban Northwestern University, and run
ning afoul of social diversions, the players trained at Delafield, Wis.
The Eagles, defending professional champions, will take the .field
14% point favorites. This is virtually the same Eagle outfit which
slaughtered the all-stars 38-0 a year ago.

A young mother said with an enthusiastic ring in
her voice, “There is one thing I am determined to
do. ( I am going to see that Nancy knows and loves
the Bible.” This mother knows that the Bible is
the gateway to life.
There are other books that assist in developing a
useful and happy life, but there is only one book
which is important from the cradle to the grave.
There are many books which can improve mind and
character, but there is a limit to their effectiveness.
The Bible gives help and guidance in every phase
of human experience. That is why it is the world’s
most popular book. It has been issued in 188
languages and part of it in 1108 tongues and
dialects.
No other book has ever been so thoroughly read
as the Bible. It lives because people get the most
out of life as they study and treasure its eternal
truths,^
