FRANKLIN, Ky., <7P)_A voice
on the telephone told the sergeant
at Police Headquarters to “come
out to my house. Something awful
is about to happen.”
When police arrived at the Krat-
zert home, they found 4-year-old
Billy hiding behind a couch.
“What’s the matter, feller?”
asked the law.
“She was going to spank me,”
said the youngster, pointing at a
baby-sitter.
Police persuaded the sitter to let
Billy’s parents take care of the
matter when they returned.

Idle this week due to Boy Scout
Camp, the four teams of the
College Station Little League are
eagerly awaiting the beginning of
the second half of the season,
although their first-half champion
has not yet been decided.
Ken Midkiff’s Red Sox have al
ready completed their first half
schedule and own a 6-3 mark, good
enough to assure them of at least a
tie for the first-half crown. The
White Sox, however, are right
behind with a 5-3 record, and should
they win their postponed game with
the third-place Orioles would dead
lock the Red Sox for the title of
the opening half.
Meanwhile, the second half gets
underway at Little League Park
Monday with a double-header. In
the 5:30 tilt, the Orioles tangle with
the White Sox, while the Red Sox
battle the Senators in the 7:30
game.
After the second half has been
completed, the victors of each
portion of the divided season are
due to collide for the 1957 Ameri
can League South championship.
Pitching continued to “catch up”
with the hitting, for the most part,
in last week’s action. League batt
ing’ leader Dennis Muth of the Red
Sox fell slightly but still possesses
a healthy lead with a .464 mark.
One of his teammates, Charles
Gandy, is the only other player-
swatting the ball for better than
a .400 percentage.

a shot at the loop batting crown,
Gandy is now clubbing .414. He is
trailed by the Orioles’ Jimmy Nail,
.350; the Senators’ Sidney Coufal,
.346; the White Sox’s Harold
Cooner and Jimbo Bevans, .316 and
.308, respectively, and Jody Rush
of the Senators, .308.
Muth is in front in total bases,
with 29; in home runs with four;
in base hits, with 13; in runs scored,
with 11; runs batted in, with 14;
doubles, with four and in slugging
percentage, with a phenomenal
1.036 pace.
In only two other offensive de
partments—triples and stolen
bases—does the lead belong to
someone other than the red-hot
Muth. The Red Sox’s Hubert
Hearne has belted the league’s only
triple, while Hearne, Bevans, and
the White Sox’s Bobby Houze own
four stolen bases apiece.
Among the pitchers, Bevans and
Randy Ransdell, of the Red Sox,
are the possessors of perfect 0.00
earned run averages. Muth, with a
3-0 record, leads the loop with 30
strikeouts. He has twirled the most
complete games, three, along with
Jackie Ross, of the Orioles, and
Ozzie Burke, of the White Sox.
