Back Mountain Eliminates Dupont
8 to 1 In Game Filled With Thrills
Superb pitching, devastating hit-
ting and sparkling fielding saw Back
Mountain All Stars eliminate three
opponents.
Monday night at Dupont field
Back Mountain took its third straight
victory from a good club that had
previously eliminated Jenkins Town-
ship and Wyoming by lopsided vic-
tories.
Kern started on the mound for
Back Mountain and faced Pramick,
the best Dupont could offer..
In the top half of the first Pra-
mick forced the first three batters
to ground out without any trouble.
Kern, starting his second play-
off game after a victory over Lu-
zerne, got the first two hitters
with | strikeouts, and then Wrazen
hit a three and one pitch for the
first hit of the game. Wrazen died
on first when Kern fanned the next
hitter.
In the top of the second, Town-
send led with a single through the
box into centerfield. Morris singled
to left and Townsend stopped at
second. Jones hit to short and
Morris was forced at second. With
Townsend on third, Jones stole sec-
ond on the first pitch to Kern.
After Kern fanned, Bob Parry
belted a single to right field scoring
Townsend but Jones failed'to touch
third base while attempting to
score and when the ball was re-
turned to the infield the third base-
man called for the second baseman
to throw it to him. He tagged
third base and Jones was out.
Back Mountain got credit for only
one run.
In the bottom of the third Pas-
quello walked and was forced at
second on' a grounder by R. Pra-
mick. Pramick was immediately
eliminated by another force play,
Parry to Dubil. With Wrazen on
first, M. Pramick and Pannuzio
hit consecutive simgles to score
Wrazen. After this Kern shut the
door. He retired seven straight
hitters before the game was called
in the top of the sixth due to dark-
ness.
In the fourth inning Back Moun-
tain broke the game wide open.
Dubil hit a line ‘drive homer over
the left field fence to start the
inning.
It was his second homer
last two games. Townsend

THE DALLAS POST, THURSDAY, JULY 26, 1962
Back Mountain All-Stars In District Finals At Kingston T omorrow Night
Morris followed with singles and
Jones walked to fill the bases.
Kern then hit a two-run single
scoring Townsend and Morris. Kern
was tossed out retreating to first
base on the play and Jones ad-
vanced to third. Parry then sin-
gled to drive in Jones, his second
run batted in.
In the bottom of the fifth, Town-
send sent a screaming long line
drive to right field where Pramick
made a beautiful running, leaping
catch while moving right at the
fence. Morris followed with a sin-
gle and Jones promptly belted one
into the next county far and beyond
the left centerfield: fence. Kern
then belted a double to left and
Parry followed with another double,
his third hit of the night and his
third run batted in. After the dust
had settled, Dupont was on the
short end of an 8 to 1 count going
into the sixth,
Jenkins led off the top of the
sixth but the umpires decided it
was too dark to continue and called
the game. Two minutes later the
sky opened up and poured a heavy
rain in the area.
The fans were treated to three
fielding gems; One when Townsend
was robbed of a homer by Pramick.
The ball Townsend hit was a foot
above the second baseman’s head
as it started to take off only to have
Pramick spear it for an out. Town-
send himself took a hit away from
Wesolowski when he made a leap-
ing catch of a line drive bid for a
hit. Parry made the gem of the
night when he darted to his left,
leaped into the air and speared a
Pannuzio drive between first and
second. The young second baseman
gloved the ball and crashed to the
ground with the pellet still in his
glove for one of the best plays seen
in little league competition.
Back Mountain fans are singing
the praises of the entire team as
they watch smooth infield and out-
field play.
Cook behind the plate is worth
deliveries of the two big hurlers,
Kern and Dubil.

Forty-Fort Loses
In Second Game
Little League All-Stars defeated
Forty Fort Friday, and garnered
their second win, 9-2.
Dubil had twelve strikeouts and
allowed three scattered hits.
Roan, first baseman for Forty-
Fort, solved Dubil’s slants for two
hits ‘and Paul Funke, shortstop, had
the third hit.
The first inning was a nightmare
for Forty-Fort as Dubil struck out
the side. The local lads hitting in
the bottom of the first scored two
unearned tallies. Jenkins reached
first on an error and was forced at
second when Morris grounded out.
With two down, Townsend walked,
and two passed balls scored Morris
and Townsend. Dubil singled and
went to third on two passed balls.

were down Tuesday night at Duryea.
The young righthhander had the
crowd swallowing hard, and nervous
with each pitch as he threw a no-hit,
no-run game against Duryea. The
Back Mountain All-Stars were ex-
tended for the first time in playoff
competition by the slants of “Shepul-
ski who struck out thirteen local
batters.
From the start the fans knew they
were in for one of the best pitching
battles to date as the opposing hur-
lers had very little trouble with the
batters in the first two innings.
Jenkins broke the ice in the top
of the third with a line single to cen-
terfield and moved to second on a
wild pitch but was cut down at third
when Martin grounded to the pitcher
who nailed him.
Martin died on first as Townsend
grounded to second baseman Ratch-
ford who made an unassisted force of
Martin at second.
Salidas was the first Duryea run-
ner to reach first. He got there via
an error but the next hitter grounded
{out Dubil to Townsend while Salidas
went to second. Dubil then proceeded
to strike out his opposing pitcher,
Shepulski, to end the inning.
The top of the fifth started with
[Kern singling through the box for
Back Mountain's second hit off Shep-
ulski. Parry followed with a single
to right advancing Kern to second.
Cook strolled to the plate and laid
down a beautiful bunt to the pitcher
who grabbed the ball and didn't
throw anywhere.
Now Shepulski found himself with
i Kern on third, Parry on second and
[Cook on first with none out. The
| Back Mountain fans were screaming
| for a big rally at this point as Jenk-
| ins came up. Shepulski reacted like
| a seasoned veteran, havi ing pitched
| for the last four years in Little
| League competition, and proceeded
| to strike him out.
With one out, Martin laid down
|a bunt to first, scoring Kern and
{ himself being safe on a situation
{ where the first baseman fielded: the
| bunt and stood frozen in his tracks
| not knowing where to make the |
{ play. He finally threw home too |
{ home with the only run of the game.
[Spy wasn’t rattled in the!
least and struck out the next two |
| hitters.

Dubil Pitches No-Hitter At Duryea
For All Stars Fourth Playoff Win
Big Crowd Expected For District Finals
Tomorrow Night Against Kingston Away
Ed Dubil had it when the chips |
exceptionally fast but he had his
control working perfectly up to this
point. In the bottom of the fifth
he lost temporary control and
walked Ratchford with two men
out. He then got Pesotine on a fly
to Parry.
In the top of the sixth, Morris
lined a sharp bid for a hit but Peso-
tine made g beautiful onehand grab
of the ball and then Shepulski
struck out the next two hitters.
The bottom of the sixth had local
fans on pins and needles. Dubil got
Proietto to strike out and Thorne,
pinch hitting for Turkos, to ground
out to Townsend for an unassisted
putout.
Salidas then hit a bouncer to
short that Kern had trouble with
and the fans groaned. Dubil seemed
a bit shaken at this turn of events
and walked Rava.
Up to bat came Shepulski who
had hit nine homeruns during the
regular season and the Duryea fans
were screaming for Dubil’s hide.
Dubil got two quick strikes on She-
pulski and then the homerun king
of Duryea got hold of a good pitch
and lined it between third and
short. Kern got his chance to re-
deem himself at this point and
lunged to his right and back handed
the line drive for the final out of
the game. Dubil had pitched his no
hit no run game and the Back
Mountain fans went wild with
ecstasy. Parents and well wishers
mobbed the kids and shook hands
all around in the joy and realiza-
tion that the local All Stars had
made the District finals.
The final game will be played on
Friday night at Kingston. The local
lads will meet the Kingston Little
League All Stars,
Game time is 6:00 P.M. and the
Back Mountain area will be vacated
on that night as many of the local
fans will journey to the park at the
end of Dorrance Street to see
these young lads play for the Dis-
trict championship.
