Naugler for Centralia allowed nine hits, five of which the locals bunched in the first inning. Moore struck out eight batters, five in the third and fourth, while Naugler whiffed four. Both teams came up with some smart fielding plays but at times were very eratic. Fifteen errors in all were scored, eight to • the win­ ners. Burns grabbed in a nice fly ball in centre off Robinson’s bat ir- the fifth while Harry Holtzman picked off a grass cutter to rob Robertson of a hit in the eighth. After McNabb had crossed the plate in the first half of the open­ ing inning for the first score the locals retaliated, but fast, with four in the last half. Hennessey, first man up, made the initial sack on Naugler's wild throw. Robinson singled, as did Harry . Holtzman, Elson, Moore and Smitli with the first four reaching the home slab. Came the second and the airmen repeated with another run. This time Rimer singled and came in, Exeter continued their hot lead-off pace taking advantage of three er­ ror's and Smith’s double to score three runs. The score at the end of two complete innings read 7-2. The locals got but one in the next three frames while the airmen added one in the third and two in each of the fourth and fifth, to creep up within one run. Moore held Centralia scoreless in the sixth, seventh and eighth while he him­ self crossed the plate in the seventh after drawing a walk and coming in on Smith’s second double. In the first half of the ninth the airmen started a rally after two were out. Mesier reached first on an error and scored on Burn’s double. With the tying run on sec­ ond Thayer was sent in to pinch­ hit for McDougall ,but the threat was snapped when Moore struck him out. For the winners Smith with two doubles and a single in four times at bat and Rimer with two singles in four times at bat were the lead­ ing sluggers.

(First Scanning the SP0R1S By “SCOOP” The Exeter Intermediates wound up the regular schedule with two wins, one in Lucan and the other on the home diamond against Cen­ tralia. This gives them a .5 33 per­ centage having won eight games and lost seven. They tied one game with Lucan which will be re­ played only if it affects the stand­ ing of the teams. This it may do as Lucan and Dashwood are having a close race for the fourth spot.* * * ♦ No definite word has been hand­ ed down by the South section 'as yet whether two or four teams will be in the playoffs.
