There is no questioning the fact that the new Peninsula War Memorial Stadium has probably done more than any single event or project to accelerate public enthusiasm for our national game. The immensity of the stadium project from a financial civic Improvement angle has served to show the citizens of this area that we not only need to build a stadium to keep professional baseball here but and scoreless until the eighth inning.

BfrKl3. Utah Jumo Mitchell (NX) and Mondy (Gl Portsmouth, April 24 WP) The Portsmouth Cubs backed up Lou Ciola's six-hit twirling with a barrage of basehits tonight to defeat the Norfolk Tars, 10 to 1. It was the second straight victory for the Cubs over the Tars and marked their debut before the hometown fans. Almost 4,000 customers watched the contest. The Cubs wrapped up the decision early with a three-run rally in the third frame off Hargett, Norfolk starter, and added five more runs in a busy fourth inning.

Of course, the Warwick High officials are not heading a movement to bring back the game in the other Lower Peninsula schools but it4 continuance in the field makes the other schools seem just a bit on the backward side. This latter Is especially true in view of the fact that Warwick is a Group II school. This is as true for Poquoson as it is for Warwick. On top of all this, more independent men's and boys' teams seem to be set for competition. Therefore, we can conclude that this resurgence of baseball activity In 1948 constitutes a spontaneous movement to KEEP BASEBALL ALIVE ON THE LOWER PENINSULA.

All Is needed now is for fans to give the game the support it deserves. DODGER SCOUT MOVES THROUGH AREA Rex Bowen, who conducted a baseball school for Brooklyn here last season, passed through this city last week and dropped Into the Daily Press sports department. The Dodger hunter of baseball ivory is, no doubt, looking for some of the precious stuff that he hunts. When he came into see us he was returning from the M-Quantico game. I guess he took a "good" look at Tommy "The Kid" Korczowski and our own (well, practically) Chick Fox.

Mary (1(1) Bankhead Farmed Nashua. N. April 24. (rP) Dan Bankhead, 26-year-old Negro pitcher, with the Brooklyn Dodgers last stocking feet, had an amusing story for us when reaching the city the ether day. Last winter Bob played for the Tri-Cltles team of the Basketball Association of America and was the "second smallest center in the league." The tallest is six-foot, nine inches in the person of Don Otten, ex-Bowl-lng Green luminary.

And, of course, there was the irrepressible George Mikan. Hubbard has worlds of praise for Mikan. He says the guy is Just "amazing." Otten is rated but slightly lower, by Hubbard, than Mikan, who was chosen the circuit's "most valuable." The Giants used five pitchers with Clint Hartung, the fourth pitcher receiving credit for the victory.
