Seagraves rumbled through the

with a game lead over the -Ker-

The second round opens Sun-
day, with Seminole at Sundown,
Levelland at Seagraves, Odessa
at Post and Kermit at Jal.
Seminole, loser of all its seven
games in the first half, is bol-
stering its line-up, and Manager
Ira Elkins says the Indians will
be in the thick of the fight dur-
ing the remaining games.
The first-half winners clinched
the title by defeating Jal, 7 to 3,
last Sunday. Sundown won from
Odessa, 10 to 4, and Kermit nosed
out Levelland, 8 to 6, to put the
clincher on second slot. The de-
feat dropped Levelland back into
a tie for third place with Post,
winner by 9 to 2 over Seminole.
