THE COURIERJOURML, LOUISVILLE, KY. TUESDAY MORNING, JUNE 1, ,1971 Joins Jessamine County in State Tournament Trinity whitewashes ntowm 8-0 for 2nd regional title 6 leadoff single. Trinity then loaded the Tournament at Lexington on June 8, bases when Neil Bradford was hit by a playing Campbellsville at 9 a.m. on the pitch and Steve Fawbush bunted 'for a Shively Sports Center diamond. Last year, base hit.

the. Shamrocks were eliminated 3-0 in the After Joe Fowler popped out to short, opener by- eventual state champion Paul Brasel hit into a fofceout, scoring Elizabethtown. County 9-2 at Lexington to earn a trip to the State tourney. Van Warren led off the first inning with a walk, but Franklin County starter and loser Steve Pewitt retired the next two batters on pop-ups before issuing free passes to Larry Glass and Dewey Dailey, loading the bases. Durham and Terry Anderson then hit back-to-back singles, driving in two runs apiece for all the cushion Jessamine County needed.

Franklin County closed out its season 21-10 while Jessamine improved its mark to 18-4. "I feel like we deserved the thing, to be truthful with you," happy Rich Rostel 'said yesterday after his Trinity High School baseball team thumped Jefferson-town 8-0 at the St. Xavier field, thus capturing its second straight Jefferson County Regional championship. Rostel, who took the varsity coaching job this season after guiding the Trinity JVs the past four years, feels that his club was on the spot in every inning of every game as it compiled a 29-7 won-lost record. "We've seen nothing but the best pitchers all year," he said.

"Knowing we won the title last year, every team we played set its rotation so the best guy on the staff would be throwing against us. We've shown a lot of depth in getting through this kind of schedule, especially in our pitching staff." Pitching, indeed, is the area in which Trinity stands out most. Danny Gadlage, who threw a five-hit shutout yesterday in boosting his record to 7-2, is only one of four capable hands. Bobby Lynch, who had a no-hitter against Flaget in the semifinals, is 8-0; senior left-hander Dave Sweets is 5-3 with a 1.11 earned-run, and Joe Elder who sports a 6-0 record wasn't even needed in the district and regional tourneys. "Actually, today's game is the worst one that Danny's thrown," said Rostel of Gadlage's effort "He pulled a back muscle pitching against Atherton, and hasn't worked in a couple of weeks.

He told me he wasn't getting anything on the ball, but fortunately, they didn't do much against him." "I didn't have anything," said Gadlage, who escaped from bases-loaded jams in the second, sixth and seventh innings. "My curve ball was hanging I wasn't getting enough snap in my wrist and I had to rely on the fast ball." Trinity put the game away against J'town starter Larry Keating with a five- run outburst in the top of the fourth inning. Bill O'Connor started the rally with a one run. Another run crossed the plate when Keating mishandled a bouncer by Danny Minogue, leaving the bases still loaded. Then, after Gadlage struck out, center fielder Paul Beam cleared the bases with a single that got through the outfield.

"We'll be more experienced this year," said Rostel. And he didn't need to add awfully deep in solid pitching. JESSAMINE COUNTY 9 2 Pitcher Rick Durham scattered four hits and Keating, who closed the season with a 9-2 record, went the distance for J'town rapped a two-out, bases-loaded single in and racked up nine strikeouts. the first inning as Denny Deskins' Jessa- Trinity will make its debut in the State mine County team routed Franklin Trinity 8, Jeffersontown JEFFERSONTOWN Flayer ab rbi D.

And they can blame it all on Bill Kirkpatrick. Kirkpatrick, a 6-foot-1 right-hander who was 7-8 with Rochester last season, blanked the Colonels on a nifty six-hitter as the Red Wings pleased 7,103 Silver Stadium fans with a 4-0 International League victory. Kirkpatrick allowed only one runner past second base in hurling his second shutout of the season. Juan Beniquez, the Colonels' shortstop, led off the seventh with a single, stole second and, after a teammate walked, moved to third on a double play. Rochester scored twice in the first inning as Rich Coggins singled and moved to third on Bobby Grich's double.1 Sam Parilla drove both home on a single to right.

Don Baylor batted in the Red Wings other two runs with a solo home run in the fifth and a single in the seventh.

Only games scheduled. By GEORGE RORRER Courier-Journal ft Times Staff Writer Joe Cangey is a little guy, maybe 160 pounds and 5 feet 7. Tony Guiliano is tiny, too. So are John Quahliero and Jack Leone, and most of the other Iron Dukes from New Castle, near Pittsburgh. But you don't have to muscle the ball out of the park to win slo pitch softball games.

And the little Iron Dukes are champions of the third annual Mid-Amer Games Cangey's Dukes a collection of hustlers with Irish and Italian-sounding names that includes a gym teacher, an engineer, tne vice president of a cleaning firm and an accountant, among others-played errorless ball in the championship game and they punched out nine singles. That, plus a costly throwing error by Knights shortstop Pete Yankey, was enough to overcome a 10-hit Knights attack. Knights manager-pitcher Don Clinton gave Dukes pitcher Tony. Guiliano much of the credit. "He kept the ball up high-and tied us up," said Clinton.

"We just didn't hit him." Meanwhile, Modelmen and Saints and Sinners of Louisville won the tournament's Class and girls' divisions, respectively. Most valuable player Jim Caldwell and Kentucky Colonel Louie Dampier led Modelmen over a team from Harrison, Ohio, 10-1. Saints and Sinners repeated as girls' champion with a 10-2 win over Cabbage Patch. Team Won Lost Pet.

Cangey, the manager and left-center fielder when he isn't selling insurance, told about it. "Y'know," he said, holding a trophy in his right hand and some plaques in his left, "I'll bet if some of us were alone right now, we'd be crying about this, we're so happy. "Some of us have been playing for this team about 10 years. We've always played well, and we've had some second places, thirds and fourths in big tournaments.

But, until now, we had never won one." Last year, the Iron Dukes finished third in the Mid-America. This encouraged them to come back here and try again rather than play in a lesser tournament at Pittsburgh. "We've always used the philosophy," said Cangey, "that it's best to play against teams that are equal to you or better than you. Most of the teams we played here were physically bigger than we are, but you win slo pitch softball games with defense and bat control."

The i fmo-sete-before-dork Associated Press Mark Donohue's luck with his cars continued to run bad yesterday in the Bryer 200 trans-American race for sports sedans at Loudon, N.H. In a repeat of his disappointing race in the Indianapolis 500, Donohue withdrew his Javelin on the 35th lap with engine problems. Until then, Donohue, who went out on the 67th lap at Indy, had swapped the lead back and forth with eventual winner George Folmer.

When Donohue went out, both he and Folmer spun, but Folmer recovered and went the rest of the way in his 1970 Mustang without incident to win the race for the second straight year. Finishing second was Peter Gregg of Jacksonville, also in a 1970 Mustang. Third went to 500 runnerup Peter Revson of New York City in a 1971 Javelin. Emerson Fittipaldi, a 24-year-old Grand Prix driver from Brazil, won the International Formula 2 race at the Crystal Palace in London, averaging 99.7 miles per hour for the 69.5 miles. After taking the second heat in a Lotus, Fittipaldi stormed to victory in the final, grabbing the lead on the second of 50 laps and holding it until the finish.
