Dedication Held
At Lighted Park
The dedication service of the
lights at the Lattle League Park
in College Station was held last
Thursday night. Gibb Gilchrist,
head of this year’s Little League
program, spoke, thanking the per
sons and organizations who made
the new facilities possible.
Thanks were extended to the
B & W Crane Service of Bryan,
for providing a crane for placing
Cpe light poles; to Andrews Parker
Inc., for digging the holes; and
to Franky Brown, for directing the
erection of the poles.
The lighting system was install
ed by the City of College Station.
Jim Colson provided equipment for
digging the holes for the pole guy
wires, and also dug the holes for
the dugouts last year.
Gilchrist also expressed appi'e-
ciation to T- W. Hughes, local
home builder, and his associates
for help in constructing the tool
house, and to the Marion Pugh
Lumber Co., “who many times last
year and this year purposely failed
to bill us for materials used for
Little League purposes.”
A new feature added to the park
is an electric ball and strike indi
ISator donated by the Student Coop
store. The scoreboard was given
by the Culpepper-Manning Insur
ance Agency and Culpepper Real
ty Co.

eration in several ways. Organi

hits in five times at the plate,
three runs scored and four runs
batted in. Mayhugh also pitched
in the fifth inning. Bob Whiting
got two for four. Allan Coulter
got four walks for the American

lie Brusse and Jerry Lewis also
scored three runs.

in four runs. First baseman Bob
Houze also collected two hits.
