Vigorous Activities
On “Y” Camp Slate
BY CURTIS H. DRISKELL
ATHENS “Y” CAMP, TALLULTH FALLS, Ga., June 26.
——Camping activities here at the South’s oldest hoys’ camp
picked up momentum this week, as a vigorous schedule of
activities at Athens “Y” Camp sent the more than 230
campers of th.g, Golden J übilee session into a fast pace.
Classes for all campers began'
Monday morning, with able in
«tructors offering lessons in a
wide variety of skills, games, and
thletic activities. s
Here are the courses in which
campers are offered instruction for
the first four weeks:
Woodshop, photography, arts
wnd crafts, nature study, riflery,
tonnis, casting and fishing, canoe
ing, model craft, archery, golfs
football, basketball, track, and a
host of waterfront activities.
Among the waterfront classes are
peginner’'s swimming, advanced
swimming, diving, and canoeing,
with empnasis on safety in the
waters of the large “Y” Camp
lake.
pill Burgess, aquatic director for
the %oth annual session of “Y”
Camp, is In charge of waterfront
classes and other aquatic activi
ties.
Classes
Classes in the various hobbies,
skills, and athletic games will run
for two full weeks, before cam
pers must change classes and take
up new fields of learning. The
class schedule is arranged so that
campers may take either two ac
tive elasses and one inactive, or
vica versa. In this wav, each
camper derives the most from his
classes, without approaching either
extreme of idleness of over-exer
tion.
Boxing was the highlight of Fri
dav nignt's program, and a camn
wide track meet was the main
event of the day on Saturday.
In Friday evening's boxing card,
frank Kinnett, of Atlanta, beat
sut a decision over Jimmy Fitz
patrick, of Pensacola. Fla, in a
turious three-reund decision. Both
hovers weighed in at 80 nounds.
Brantley Alexander. of Athens,
earried home the fight to Chris
Morin, of St. Petersbursgh, Fla,, in
the second bout — and took the
duke with a second-round TKO.
Alexander scaled 89 nounds, and
Morin tipned the weiehts at 81.
Frank Putman, at 95 pounds,
whipped Craig Ray, 109-pounder
from Moultrie, in a three-round
decision in the finale. The heavv
weight scran was well-mixed all
the way, but Putman got the het
tar of his opponent in the final
eount.

Giants Open
> -
Vital Series
With Dodgers
By JOE REICHLER
AP Sports Writer
In 1934 Bill Terry, then mana
ger of New York’s World Cham
pion Giants, was asked what he
thought of the ‘Brooklyn Dodgers.
“Are they still in the league?”
he retorted.
Now 17 year later, another
Giants manager, Leo Durocher,
will attempt to prove that the
Dodgers are still in the league.
Pacing the pack: by six full
games, the Dodegers apvear to be
in a league all by themselves.
They are threatening to make a
shambles of the pennant race in
the national circuit. The responsi
bility of halting the Brooklyn run
away rests souarelv on the Giants.
Bitter Rivals
The bitter interborough rivals
open a vital three-game series to
night at the Polo Grounds. The
general feeling is that the Giants
must win at least two of three to
convince themselves, together with
ithe rest of the circuit, that the
chase is not hopeless. The rivals
clash in another three-game set in
Brooklyn next week.
Although the Giants won nine
and lost four in the west, they
failed to gain an inch on the Dodg
ers. They did, however, climb
from fourth to second to mark
themselves as Brooklyn’s strong
est challenger.
Brooklyn has Preacher Roe (10-
0), an unbeaten southpaw, ready
for tonight, He’'ll be opposed by
Moaolie (11-3).
The Dodgers mav be without the
services of Gil Hodges, the slug
ging first baseman who leads the
majors with 24 home runs. Hod
wes injnred his lift insten in, Sun
dav’s doubleheader in Pittsburch.

THE BANNER-HERALD, ATHENS, GEORGIA
The Prince Avenue team had
gained and held an early lead over
the DeMolay boys and were de
termined to hold their margin at
any cost. Sonny Saye and Jimmy
Sailors sparked the Baptists in a
first inning round-up of runs both
getting round-trippers their first
time to bar.
Last night’s game was one of
great importance to both teams as
it was the deciding one in the
close run for second place in the
entire league. Charlie James has
successfully held the top spot in
the league all season with the
Baptists and the Dairypak aggre
gations vieing for second place
honors. The DeMolays had recent
ly risen from the cellar division
with a four straight win streak.
Last night they made their losing
bid for second place.
The atmosphere became tense in
the last stages of the tilt as the
rains became heavier and heavier.
DeMolays were determined to play
out the game to its full length
while victorious Prince Avenue
was not at all anxious to continue
play in the steady drizzle,
Richard Saye, manager of the
DeMolay team, made a spectacular
showing in centerfield toward the
end of the game. The rains had
made the ball almost unmanagea
ble but Saye came way up in two
hot fly balls In the same inning to
make two of the outs against the
Baptists.
Play during the entire tilt was
hard and eclean with only a few
spectators braving the wet to view
the outcome.

Barons Down
Chicks Twice
By The Associated Press
Baseball writers this spring said
Jim Piersall was “the equal of
Dom DiMaggio when it comes to
running, fielding and throwing.
But he’s not a topnotch hitter yet.”
Scratch that “yet.” Jimbo, the
Pennsylvania poker, {s now a hit
ter.
Piersall hit 500 last night for
Birmingham and down went
Memphis twice, -2, and 8-1. The
victories gave Birmingham a full
size bite out of Little Rock’s league
lead which now reads six instead
of seven games ahead.
Rain washed out the Little
Rock-Atlanta game. In Mobile,
Nashville won 8-5 and in New
Orleans the Pelicans doubled the
count on Chattanooga, 12-6.
Birmingham’s fast footed out
fielder hit his seventh homer in
the first game and his eighth in
the second. Through Wednesday
of last week Piersall was hitting
.421. Then for four games he got
only four hits inl4 times at bat
and his average slipped. Last
night’s production sent it up again.
Piersall, who now lives in
Scranton, Pa., was signed by Bos
ton Red Sox scout Neil Mahoney
in Meriden, Conn., playing semi
pro ball. He hit 281 with Scran
ton in 1948 and moved up to
Louisville and hit .271 in 1949.
Last summer with Louisville he
hit only 255 and at the start of
this season he was batting .333
with theColonels. On May 18 he
joined the Birmingham Barons and |
became a sensation. ;
Bob Ortiz hit another Baron
homer and old Bobo Newsom
started a five-run splurge for the
Barons in the third with his first
double of 1951. Larry Dipippo
tripled with three men on during
the inning.
