BI-COUNTY LEAGUE SCORES
Sunday, August 14
Shavertown 5, Beaumont 3;
Vernon 11, Harding 3; Falls 7
Noxen 2; Jackson 6, Dallas 4;
Orange 5, Carverton 2; East
Dallas 21, Osterhout 2.
With" a number of legal protests
and postponed games - undecided,
the league presents a pattern some-
what like a patchwork quilt. Noxen
still holds undisputed sway over
first place although its foundation
was weakened somewhot by Falls’
unexpected 7-2 triumph Sunday.
Vernon, by virtue of its re-
sounding 11-3 victory over Hard-
ing, has climbed into fourth place
over the vanquished Beaumont
squad. Harding and Shavertown
continue two-three and appear set.
However, Harding, which is virtu-
ally assured of the number two
spot, is still a question mark, To
finish out the season with Dallas
this Sunday, Harding may use its
regular team, but to participate
in the playoffs, Harding must drop
seven ineligible players which it
has been using all season. How
this paradox will be solved is any-
body’s guess, but Harding must
come to a decision before next
week.
Although the playoffs have been
semi-officially settled at four teams,
it has not been definitely decided
whether it will be the top four
teams in the league or the top
two teams in each division. Divi-
sions are split up as follows
(teams are listed in their ‘order
in" league standings): In the first
section are Noxen, Vernon, Beau-
mont, Jackson, Orange and Os-
terhout. In the second section are
Harding, Shavertown, Dallas, East
Dallas, Carverton and Falls. It is
extremely likely that the top four |
teams will be the same as the
divisional leaders, but, and here
is the skunk in the woodpile, if
Harding drops out the number two
team in its division may well be
the fifth or sixth place team in
the league standings. And as the
league rules at the start of the
season definitely state—the top
teams in each section are the ones
to engage in the playoffs, you can
easily see what a muddle the final
standings will present.
Jackson Sinks Dallas
The games coming up this Sun-
day will clear up most of the pres-
ent muddled standings. With all
the contests, excepting the “Car-
verton-Falls tilt, regulation games
which have been either protested
or postponed, this week will go
a long way toward deciding the
playoff contenders. Four of the
games will be really top flight with
one team as likely to win as the
other. These games include the
Noxen-Vernon, Orange-Beaumont,
Dallas-Harding, and the Jackson-
East Dallas contests.
Vernon Upsets Harding
Jackson proved to be just a little
bit too much for Dallas in both
hitting and pitching and so earned
a narrow 6-4 victory. Although
outhitting Dallas 10-3, Jackson
could not capitalize on its extra
| inning.

las drives ticketed for extra bases
and then Charlie Brobst, right-
fielder, evened the score for Dallas
as he made a great catch robbing
Ide of at least a triple. H. Grose
was the losing pitcher giving up
five walks to Levi’s two, and fan-
ning five to Levi's eight. Joe Levi
held Dallas in check with only
i three hits with Lefty Danko col-
lect two of them and Vander-
brouck getting the third. Fedor
had two hits, one a home run, to
stand out for Jackson. Urick also
had two hits, a pair of singles,
as did Niezgoda and Bombick. Rus-
iloski had a double.
Shavertown Trips Beaumont
In a tight pitching duel that
lasted the full nine innings Ralph
Anthony bested Lefty Wetzel to
give Shavertown a 5-3 victory, Al-
though each team could get only
five hits, Shavertown bunched its
to good advantage to take the ball-
game. Larry Newhart’s double,
the game’s only extra-base hit, was
the telling blow in the Shavertown
attack. Wetzel garnered 12 strike-
outs to Anthony’s five, but to no
avail as Anthony showed more
control and bore down in the
pinches as he walked only two
compared to four for Wetzel. Pat-
ton was tops for Beaumont with
two hits while Newhart was the
big gun for Shavertown as he also
collected two hits. Goodwin,
Wetzel and Kennedy filled out the
Beaumont hitting and Cairns, B.
Metzger and Anthony each had a
hit apiece for Shavertown.
