Beaumont came back to win the seven inning nightcap 6-3. Taylor saved the day for Beaumont in the pinches despite eight East Dallas hits against his “soft stuff”. The even split in the double header caused both teams to lose ground. Beaumont by a clean sweep could have held uncontested second place. As it is Vernon is now hot on its neck for the runner up spot. East Dallas, fighting for the fourth place playoff spot, would have gained valuable ground on the other contender for this position as Dallas was held to a split with Noxen in its games. East Dallas sewed up the first game with a four run outburst in the fifth to come from the short end of a 4-3 score. Big blow of the inning was Russ Muchler’s home run with one man on. The re- maining runs scored on Art Bellas’ bases loaded double. Dick Patton's bases loaded triple in the fourth had given Beaumont its temporary lead. Patton added another triple in the sixth to score Beaumont’s final tally. Everetts and Lefty Wet- zel handled the mound chores for Beaumont while Stanton with eight strikeouts was the victor for East |Fair Will Run Six Full Days Bloom Directors Vote To Start On Monday Not only will this year’s Blooms- burg Fair be bigger than ever, but it also will be longer than ever.

Everything is in readiness for the ninety-seventh annual fair, the buildings and grounds are already in excellent shape, and Dallas. Although only six hits came from the Beaumont bats four of i them were for extra bases. Besides | Patton’s two triples, Crispell and ! Pilger each had a double. Walt Ko- zemchak had a pair of singles to go with Muchler’s homer and Bel- las’ double for the East Dallas batting. Beaumont Wins Beaumont pulled the second con- test out of the fire by scoring three times in the fifth inning to break a 3-3 tie. Taylor outfoxed the East Dallas batsmen as Beaumont climbed on the hot and cold offer- ings of Glenn Swank, East Dallas moundsman. Beaumont batters either hit Swank or were struck out by him. In six innings he fan- ned nine men and gave up eleven safeties. Taylor gave up eight hits, one a double by Junie Ostrum, while striking out five. Claytie Taylor’s double with the bases loaded in the fifth accounted for Beaumont’s winning runs. Ostrum with a single and a double topped the East Dallas batters while Ever- etts and Crispell with a pair of singles apiece were the big guns for Beaumont. Your TV Future Is Safe With Us! ’ .
