tuns and post an 8-3 win over the
Teachers.
The Turf scored all eight runs
in the fourth ining as the
Teachers had a letdown however,

into the game as Gus Feeney and
Don Bach. hit home runs to
account for the Teacher's 3 runs.
Sunday's "games saw the
Queens continue to pressure the
Turf as they had little trouble
disposing of the Firemen by an
11-3count. The Queens opened a
2-0 first inning lead and never
were threatened as they played
heads up ball behind the five hit
pitching of Jack Price. The
Queens pounded out twelve hits
