Auburn's turn at the bat Monday night arid 'the north- erners pasted the Legion Mo- hawks 8-2 in the third game of the semi-fin'a1s, The visitors pounded 15 hits off two ehucking Chucks -- Wheeler and Parsons ---to thwart Mohawks' !bid to eliminate them in three straight games. Winning pitcher Ken Patterson allowed only seven hits and fanned seven to tame the local .braves after they had broke loose for 17 bingles in the second game. • Auburn scored their runs in systematic fashion, They counted two in every o14 frame of ,the seven -inning ball game. ]Pitcher Patterson started his club off by cracking a single in the first 'which drove in the 2-0 lead.

Legion Corner —Continued from Page 2 - Comrade Glenn 'Robinson is in' the •hospital. I do not know how 'serious his illness Is yet, but we all wish hini a speedy recovery. * * * * The Legion Mohawks took a beating from !Auburn Monday night, but I hope that you will read in this issue, that they gave Auburn one on their return game, Wednesday. There was one Exeter man who was a 'little more sorry to see the Exeter team lose that game, than the rest of us, if that is pos- sible. One of the comrades did a little stalking with some 'money in his hand, and the sorry fellow thought the would relieve, him of same, but that wasn't the -case this time. I sure wouldn't advise •anyone to bet against the Exeter team' too -much. They let us down a little in that game, but I strongly believe' they just had one ,of those nights, and they .can do a lot bet- ter than, that, against Auburn any other team, so let's get out and back our 'beam all we can. * * * This writing about something that is .gding to happen, 'and you reading or hearing about it atter it has, is kind 'of awkward, so if any of you comrades have any news, will you .,please let me know before Monday night, early. That is news that I can write about, and Is fit for the paper. Some of the news 1 have received has backfired and has left me in the ,middle of some heated de- bates, so I "am -a little bit timid on that 'stuff now, !butt we can always try again, no let's have it. There are lots of (humorous things that happen to some of us every day of 'the week so let's have same of them, and keep the column interestting until we have something serious to write about. electi OF.
