Little League

Rain stalled action in American
League South play last week as
the league opened its second half
of play. Again, as in the first
half, two quick victories by the
Orioles have boosted the Birds
into the first place slot in the
loop.
Thursday’s action found the
first-half cellar-dwelling White
Sox rise up and slap down the
high-riding Senators, 13-9, on the
strength of a six-run sixth inning.
John Skrabanek weathered the
Senator storm to take his initial
win of fire campaign against two
losses although he was rocked for
10 hits while walking four and
striking out nine. Joe Williams
took his third straight defeat as
the Sox unloaded eight hits in the
final inning, 14 during the con
test.
Williams also walked four and
whiffed two. Skrabanek took hit
ting honors with three hits, two
doubles, in four trips, driving in
four teammates. Every Sox player-
hit safely except shortstop Jim
Monday the Senators rebounded
from the licking and bounced the
Red Sox, 7-3 behind Walter Var-
vel. Jimbo Robison absorbed the
loss but six errors in the first
three innings netted the Senators
seven unearned runs and the vic
tory. The first big threat by the
Sox same in the sixth when they
picked up three runs on two hits
and two errors but Varvel settled
down to whiff the final two foes
for the victory. Varvel’s two
singles led the Senator attack
while the Sox were only able to
manage four singles off Varvel.
Orioles Win
Tuesday the Orioles began their
second half play with a bang,
slapping the White Sox, 12-2, with
Willie Edmonds picking up the
win. The winners picked up a
run in the first before exploding
for eight runs on six hits and one
Sox miscue in the second to ice
the win. The Birds completed the
rout against Duke Butler with
three more tallies in the third.
Edmonds pitched runless ball until

Davis Homers
Wednesday saw Oriole catcher
Jerry Davis pound a fifth inning
homer to give the Orioles a 6-5
win over the Senators. The cir
cuit clout was Davis’ first since
June 9 and his sixth of the season.
The blast gave Dennis Chaney his
third win against one loss and
stopped loser Howard Nelson’s
bid to pick up his fourth straight
win. Walter Varvel cracked a
third inning homer to cut the
Oriole lead to 5-4. Four hits com
bined with four Senator errors
gave the Orioles five quick runs
in the second inning and set the
stage for Davis’ blast.
The Sens had scored two in the
first, and one each in the second,
third and fourth to knot the count
at 5-5 but couldn’t push across the
tying marker in the sixth. Two
double plays helped the Birds.

Entomologist To Attend Meet In Austria
Dr. Perryy Adkisson, A&M Col
lege System entomologist, will at
tend the 11th International Con

Austria, in August.
The congress meets every four

torate from Kansas State Univer
sity.
The National Science Founda
tion, through the Entomology So
ciety of America, has provided a
grant to cover air travel to and

eral other American entomologists.
