(Cont'd, on Page 8) R Jicademy Leaguers Ccvpi By Frank Hancock The Academy Street Little Leaguers from Clinton Mill defeated Thornwell Orphanage 2 to 0 on July 17 to win the city trophy for the second straight year. Undefeated last year with 21 wins, the Academy Street boys went into their final game needing to win to sew up the trophy, and Thornwell Orphanage was just as determined not to give it to them. In the second, fourth and seventh innings, bases were loaded for both sides, but neither could score It rocked on like this until the top of 11th with the bases loaded by a walk, an error and a single. Little 11 - year - old Ronnie Brookshire slammed a double off the right centerfield wall to bring in two tallies.
