DAILY NEWS, LEBANON, (J! American Legion Jr. Championship Crown Won By Local 5th Ward Tea BESTED HEBRON IN 11-INNING GAMEFRIDAY Will Play Harrisburg's West End Jrs. Next Wednesday "Bddle" Brown, 14 years old, Henry Houck Junior High school athlete, bested Claude Felty, of Lebanon County Class A High school league fame, In a battle ot pitch- era, Friday afternoon, when Fifth Ward emerged from battle with a 2 to 1 victory over Hebron, at tho Bethlehem steel field. This victory gave Fifth Ward t-wo out of a three games series and the right to represent the William H. Bollman Post, Lebanon American Legion, against the West End Harrisburg's American Legion Post representatives, next Tuesday, at Harrlsburg, In the first of the intersectional elimination tournament games.

It was the third time these two teams battled each other. The first game went to Felty and his Hebron mates by a one run verdict. The second game, played last Saturday went to Fifth Ward, 9 to 4. Yesterday's battle, an eleven Inning affair ell- tninated the county players. Felty brought about his own downfall, although he pitched excellent ball.

In the tenth inning Ditt and Blouch fanned for the first two outs. BTown came to bat and was issued a free ticket to the Initial sack. The speedy little athlete immediately set out to steal second. He accomplished hig undertaking. When Fisher threw wild to second, Brown went to third.

Felty apparently was annoyed with Brown on third, ore of the few men to reach that point, made a wild pitch allowing Brown to score. This put Fifth Ward into the lead 1-0. Not to be licked at this stage of the game, Hebron players came to hat determined to even the count and win If possible. Tom Starry, a mate of Brown aj Henry Houck last year, walked. Fleher, another former mate of Brown's went out on an easy grounder.

Starry went to second on the play. Zimmerman fanned for the second out. 1m- rnel, another mate of Brown's at Henry Houck last season, poled out a hefty single past third base, scoring Starry with the tying run. FJelty was an easy out, Blouch to Schoff- stahl. Score, Fifth Ward, Heb- Wlth the score tied the Fifth Warders came to bat with a vengeance.

Klepper went out Zimmerman to Starry. Lutz, walked and Immediately stole second on Fisher a former team mate. Benntnghoff struck out. Schoffstahl grounded to Hoke. Hoke made a bad peg to first and Lutz scored what proved to be the winning run.

Gruber singled to third, but died on first when Ditt was an easy out. Score, Fifth Ward, Hebron, 1. Hebron came to bat in the last half of the eleventh. The first two batters were easy outs. Deck a pinch hitter for Stager walked.

Sclotta singled to right field advancing Deck to second. Starry the next batter was purposely walked by Brown. This filled the bases. A terrible predicament to ba in. Brown- like a veteran seemed to take the circumstances with a smile.

The Henry studenit worked hard on next batter Fisher, a former mate. Fisher went down on three strikes to end the gamo. The game was originally scheduled for seven innings. Whe no score was made at the end of the seventh by either team the battle was continued and went four extra innings. Both clubs had opportunities to bat in runs but fine fielding by players on both teams prevented the same.

Felty and Brown were in hot water many times but always managed to emerge in time. Brown was in the tight place in the last of the seventh. With bases loaded and only two out Blouch pulled the most sensational play of the game when he scooped up Fisher's hot grounder and stumbled to second to. tag the bag for the thlrd'out. Blouch was off his balance and barely made the base after scooping up the ball that seemed destined to end the contest the way rolled through the pitchers box headed for center field.

Brown allowed only six hits, well scattered, and fanned fourteen hatters. Felty issued five hits and struck out eleven Fifth Ward hit- era. For eight full innings both teams sailed along without committing an error. The game waa exciting from beginning to end. In fact it was the best game, including the professionals, this writer has seen in Lebanon this year.

The boys deserve a lot of credit and should be backed in their plight against the Harrteburg club next week. The Score: Fifth Ward n. H. o. A.
