Sport Flashes
Last Wednesday evening the
High School-Federal Huskies
met in a practice battle with an
over-confident Hammon team
which anticipated an easy ev
ening but were trounced thorough
ly to the tune of 10 to 5 by the
Huskies.
The first few runs were made
by the Hammons, but when Mar
tin Willoya, who was late, came
into the pitcher’s box, the tide
turned with appaling speed. The
Hammon batters just didn’t seem
to connect with Martin’s balls,
and this, with a few errors in
the field, gave the Huskies the
winning score.
Last Sunday evening the Husk
ies and the Commercials played
a practice game which resulted
in a tie 9-9.
Thursday evening the High
School boys played a game of
; touch football, a game new to a
number of them, and some sore
muscles are anticipated. Two
j teams captained by Bud Slack
