Banner and defeated them by the score of 8 - 1. Murray Mc- Donald was the star of the game knocking in 5 runs on a two man homer and a double with the bases loaded. In their second game, the Rockets slipped by Thamesford the score of 2 - 1. This was a real pitchers' duel between Neil Gowing of the Rockets and Rick Learn of Thamesford. The Rock- ets scored a run in each of the first 2 innings providing enough to win the game. At 8:00 the Projectiles met Fletcher and Jewitt in the final coming out on the losing end of a '7 - 3 score. The Rockets didn't come home empty-handed though, winning twenty-five dol- lars as runner-up. Also Ken Ritchie won a trophy as being named most valuable player in the tournament. The. Rockets showed great bustle and spirit going as far as they did and are sure to return next year to win it all. P. S. The first game was marred by a collision in the outfield between Frank Stretter and Tom Reyell of the Rockets. Frank has a real shiner to prove it. This accident seemed to instill more fire for the Rockets to continue on.
