Vollmer Leads
Red Sox Over
Chisox, 3-2
The Boston Red Sox’ money
player, Clyde Vollmer, paid off
again with a two-run ninth-in
ning single for a 3-2 win over the
Chicago White Sox in the finale of
‘a torrid fdur-game set yesterday.
The victory moved the first place
Red Sox a full game in frent of
the White Sox. W
The fourth straight one-run de
cision of the crucial series came as
the White Sox failed to score
against Lefty Charley Stobbs after
filling the bases with two out in
the ninth. Chicago scored its only
runs in the second.
It was Stobbs’ first win of the
season over the White Sox.
Vollmer’s line single to left after
Bobby Doerr had singled and Billy
Goodman doubled in the ninth
won the game. It was the sixth
time the big fly chaser produced
the winning punch for Boston in
the last seven games.
In Thursday night’s double win
by Boston over the White Sox,
Vollmer had belted a two-run
homer in the opener and clouted
a fly that plated the winning run
in a 17-inning nighteap.
Don Johnson, 24 - year - old
Washington Senator righthand
er, faced only 29 batters—two
over the minimum — as he
blanked the Detroit Tigers 8-0
with three hits yesterday.
George Kell, Jerry Priddy,
and Joe Ginsberg rapped singles
off Johnson but Ginsberg was
erased by a double play. They
were the only batters o reach
first.
The St. Louis Cardinals moved
back into second place yesterday
by tripping the New York Giants,
4 to 3, on Enos Slaughter’s two
run double in the seventh inning.
Richie Ashburn, who is de
veloping into a one-man offense
for the Philadelphia Phillies,
clubbed out four hits in four
tries yesterday to help Bubba
Church defeat the Pittsburgh
Pirates, 2-0.
Church restricted the Pirates
to six hits, one more than the
Phillies secured from the offer
ings of Vernon Law and Ted
Wilks.
The vengeful Cleveland Indians,
smarting from their no-hit defeat
Thursday, pulled to within one
game -of third place New York
yesterday by handing the Yan
kees an 8 to 0 drubbing behind
Early Wynn’s two-hit pitching.
Veteran lefthander Ken Raf
fensberger of Cincinnati blanked
Boston with six hits yesterday,
5-0, while his mates socked out
12 safeties to make it two
straight Reds’ shutouts over the
Braves.
The Philadelphia Athletics
downed the St. Louis Browns yes
terday in a slugfest, 10 to 6.
The Chicago Cubs decisively
ended their eight-game losing
streak yesterday, by sweeping a
doubleheader from the league
leading Brooklyn Dodgers, 5 to 4
and 11 to 7.

Athens Boys Show Up Fine In !

Crackerland Swimming Events
The Athens YMCA made a very creditable showing in the recent
Crackerland Swimming and Diving Championships which were
held here at the American Legion and Stegeman Hall swimming
pools on the week-end of July 7,
Especially outstanding were several of the “y» boys who com-~
peted in the ten and under 25-yard freestyle event. The YMCA
organization had boys. swimming in that event from the local
classes, Pine Tops “Y” Camp, and the Athens “Y” Camp at Tal
lulah Falls.
The winner of the event was Jeff Mills, son of Mr. and Mrs. W.
J. Mills of Rutherford street. Jeff is attending the Pine Tops Canrp
this summer,
The winning time which was turned in was 16.8 and was ac=
credited to Mills who cut through the water in record time to take
the event a se®nd ahead of Jimmy Carlisle who was swimming
for the Big “Y” Camp. Carlisle’s time was 16.9.
Jimmy Allen took third with a 17.5, followed closely by Bill
Smith with a 17.8. Jimmry Gabrielson and Ray Danner took fifth
and sixth places in the event with their times being 17.8 and 19.8,
respectively.

Arnold DeLaPerriere, commended all of the Athens YMCA boys
who participated in the meet for their hard work, done in prepara
tion for the meet, and the awards won.

DeMol Win As
Dai k Nips Ms
airypak Nips Mfg.
The Athens Manufacturing team Friday night, paced by
their ace pitcher, John Spratlin, held the second place
Dairypak in the first game of the Municipal League play
until the last inning when the inspired Dairypakers pound
ed out ten runs to win the game, 14 to 13. The second fray
of the night went to the fourth place DeMolays, ‘who beat
the University Profs, 24 to 13.
The Athens Manufacturing
pitcher made a creditable record
for himself in the first portion of
the tilt but lost control and his
touch in the last inning, walking
in the winning run for the Dairy
pakers.
Capacity Crowds
The tilt was played to a full
bleacher of fans who thrilled to
the comeback that the Dairypak
team staged. That team had only
four runs in the bottom of the
last inning and no one expected
the great hitting that was mus
tered by the Dairypak aggregation
to pull the game out of the fire,
Sharing the hurling honors for
the Dairypakers were Bailey and
“Wheby who walked five men and
were ‘unable to fan any. John
Spratlin who did the pitching for
the Manufacturing team walked
six during the fray.
Greatly responsible for the ten
run rally in the last inning were
Fields, Tillitski, Maxwell, and
Sailors who all crossed the bag
for tallies after banging out good
hits. The entire team seemed to
be working together throughout
the tilt.
In the second game of the night
DeMpolay downed the University
Profs by a score of 24-13. The los
ing pitcher, who went all the way,
Wayne Shields of the University
Profs, walked six and struck out
four.
Statistics
The Profs made nine errors, put
out six men with assists, and only
picked off one DeMolay runner
that had headed for second base.
The DeMolay’s had 11 men left
on base, while the Profs pitcher
walked six would-be hitters.
The DeMolays made six errors,
with six assists, and two put-outs.
The only home run of the night
was hit by Bice, the Prof left field
er, who laid the wood to the ball,
which landed over Charles Flan
agan, DeMolay’s center fielder’s,
head and bounded back to the
left-center field fence.
Probably the best hitters for the
DeMolay aggregation were little
Lou Lanad and Jimmy Mercer,
who got four hits for five trips to
the plate,
Bice, Profs center fielder turned
in the best hitting on the Profs
team with three hits for five times
at the plate.
Richard Saye, player-manager
of DeMolay, pitched himself a
winning game, with some fine
fielders backing him up.

seventh inning yesterday at Stat

the homelings, 22 to 8. The VFW
