Harry got out of the jam by striking out Makara.

Harris then singled to left field and the ball got past the left fielder, allowing Labanoski and Brugger to score. Harris was thrown out at third, ending the game. O'Hara allowed only three hits, Brominski's double and singles by Fritz and Jay McCloe.

Baran also knows that his pitchers are going to have to work a little harder until the rest of his young team, a team with only three defensive starters returning from last leason, works through some rough spots. Some of those rough spots popped up Sunday evening in a 3-2 loss to visiting Wilkes-Barre. The loss followed a doubleheader split with Tunkhannock on Saturday, in which Hazleton Area won the first game, 3-1, and lost the second game, 5-4.

Hazleton Area will be at Coplay tonight for a non-league game and will host Pittston Tuesday night in a league contest WILKES-BARRE HAZLETON AREA 3 2 Wilkes-Barre scored all three of their runs in the fifth inning after two were out then survived Hazleton Area threats in each of the last three innings.

Having the wheels off at these times eliminates duplication of labor. Wheel bearings come in inner and outer pairs. They cushion the contact between the wheel and the spindle upon which it sits and thereby allow the wheel to turn freely by virture of their friction-less bearings and grease. Although the hub and brake drum protect the wheel bearings from dirt contamination to some extent, the grease in the bearings still tends to pick up dust and little particles. If so, this can lead to abrasive wear.

Repacking the wheel bearings assures that a fresh supply of grease will enable the wheel bearings to continue to function effectively. Let the professional service team at your local repair shop take care of your car. Your car is probably one of your most expensive possessions, so doesnl it make sense to have It serviced by the best technicians around. In turn, TUNNESSEN AUTO PARTS will provide them with everything they need to get you back on the road quickly and safely. Come by 629 W.
