Leaguers Ccvpi

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.
Much credit goes to Coach
Truman Owens for his fine
work in building a team of
fine ball players Credit also
goes to Luke Fuller and

was at National Guard
camp.

carried us to victory:
