Until the winners had their last bat, the locals were in front by a 6-4 margin and ap­ peared to be on their way to a badly needed win. Three runs in the fourth inning gave them the lead which they hol'd until the St. Marys had their outburst in the eighth. St. Marys bottom of scoring on tied it up when Perran crossed the plate. Then St. Marys moved into the lead again in the third when Wilson scored on a wild pitch. Robinson, Perran and Howie Holtzman scored in the fourth when Exeter again was in front by a 4-2 edge. Two more were added in the sixth. Smith, pinch­ hitting for Penhale, drove out a double with Robinson and Har Holtzman aboard.
