Corona Leaves
George Corona, the hard-hitting Owl centerfielder, reported to
the Dallas Eagles of the Texas league last night.
The Eagle officials decided to call the slugger up from their
farm club here in Gainesville.
They also called in L. D. (Little Dutch) Meyer, who was the
manager of the East Texas league-leading Gladewater Bears.
Both Corona and Meyers are really hitters and they should be
able to aid the Dallas cause, but we are wondering what is to happen
to the Owl cause.
The Hooters certainly didn’t need to lose any of their power,
for they are now just barely hanging onto a thread-thin lead in the
torrid Big State league race.
Last night, the fauering Hooters absorbed another licking from
the Wichita Falls Spudders, and the loss shoved them down until
Texarkana is only one half game behind them. Another loss by the
Owls and a win by the Bruins will shatter the first place play-house

WICHITA FALLS, June 28 W
— The Wichita Falls Spudders
took advantage of 13 bases on
bal Is-from three Gainesville hurl-
ers, and a grand-slam home run
by Bob Seltzer to capture their
second straight game from the
faltering Big State league leaders
tonight, 9-3.
Lee Crissman was the loser.
Roy Sanner took over for Jack
Venable in the sixth and finished

The Feathered Flock meets the
Spudders on the Wichita Falls
diamond tonight in the three-
game series final. Game time is
due to be 8 p. m. at Spudder park.
The Birds go to Temple Friday
night, where they will engage the

day afternoon, the Owls return
to Locke field for the beginning
of an eight-day home stand. They
are due to tangle with the Wich-

contest.
THE BOX SCORE
“But”, you say, “I wouldn’t trust my car beyond the
city limits.”
set up by our local favorites.
Too Many Walks
Three Owl pitchers gave up
only six base hits to the Spud
ders in Wichita Falls last night,
but 13 bases on balls helped
give the winners enough base
runners to win the game.
Bob Seltzer, Spudder center-
fielder, could have won the
game by himself. He blasted a
bases loaded home run to help
the victors to the spoils.
The win by Manager Hack
Miller’s crew sent them walk-
ing into the first division of the
league. They moved into third
place, four games back of the
Owls.
Leland Crissman started on
the hill for the Owls and was,
no doubt, credited with the
loss. He was relieved by Jack
Venable and Venable was later
taken out in favor of Roy San-
ner, who did some fine hurling.

Adair revealed that he might

on Sunday, July 2, when the
Owls return home from their
long road trip. Even then he
won’t be ready for full time

He told us that he was going

and not get so excited during
the ball games.
We know all local fans are
pulling for the friendly mana-

We hope he can lead them to

Adair came into town yesterday
to help clear up some business
connected with the local club.
We went into the baseball office
and had a fine talk with the
Hooter lead.
Jimmy told us the doctors in
Dallas had ordered him to go
to bed for awhile. He declared
■hat, although his ear had been
giving him a lot of trouble, the
doctors told him that he was also
too run down to go on working
right now.
The Bird leader has lost 12
pounds and knows he must fol-
low the physicians’ orders. Jim-
my is a very conscientious fellow
an we know how hard he has
fought to keep his Owl team on
.he winning track.
It will be a little while, how-
ever, before the Feathered Flock
skipper will be able to return to
action.
Game Notes
The Owls were stymied once
again by the Spudder pitching
staff. Everrette Neal held the
Hooter bats to only four bingles,
but locals did score three runs.
Crissman and Venable have
been troubled all season long
with their lack of control. Walks
can certainly hurt any pitcher,
for that is just putting a man on
first base without even giving
the fielders an opportunity to
get him out. If both men could
find their control, they would
both be great hurlers.
The Dallas front office did
send a player to the Owl camp
to take over in place of the re-
called Corona.
Eagle Rookie Outfielder Ken
Gorgal reported to the Owls in
Wichita Falls last night. He
managed to get a double in the
game.

Local Fishermen
A couple of good friends of
ours—James Gray and Deryl
Barnes—really had a lot of fun
on the last fishing trip that they
made.
The two local men, both ardent
anglers took their vacations and
traveled to Monument Lake at
Trinidad, Colorado. They stayed
there five days and hooked a
number of rainbow and German
brown trout.
Gray seemed to have caught
the most, however, as he boated
22 trout, while Barnes managed
to bring in six.
Gray told us that the fish
weren’t biting very heavily at the
'ake, during their stay. The fact
was due mostly to the lack of
water in the lake. The. local
angler told us that the water was
tow in the mile-long body of wa-
er, and their catch was one of
the largest that was heard of
luring their five day jaunt.
Good Size
The trout were all of nice
size. Five of the fish tipped
the beam at around two
pounds, while the others neared
that mark. The trout ranged
around 16 inches in length.
The Gainesville Isaac Wal-
tons brought the fighting fish
in with “flat fish” lures. Gray
employed a silver one with
great success. while Barnes
found an orange one to his lik-
mg.
The two lads were certainly
happy over the catch that they
made, and they told us they
would enjoy going back up to
that fishing country the next
time they got a chance.
