DOGERS LOSE TO WHITING. The East Chicago Dodgers met with their first defeat of the season Sunday when the AVhiting A. C. beat them, 8-3. As usual our "Old Reliable" Alex Sitricz pitched another good game, getting 17 strikeouts with E. Sweez receiving. "W. Quinn broke his batting record by mak'ing a safe hit every time up and maikng 5 of our S runs. The Dodgers have an open date Sunday, June 15. and would like to hear from some fast team averaging 15-1S years. Whiting A. C. take notice. Call 733-Wr between 6:00 and 6:30 and ask for Michael.

TRIANGLES ARE DEFEATED The St. Crill3 Baseball Club of Whiting defeated the strong Indiana Harbor Triangle A. C. at Whiting on Sunday. June S. 1:119. in a- one-sided game. Tony Maksimik was on the mound for the St. Cyrills while Lynn opened for the Triangles but was relieved in the fifth inning by Tim. The feature of the game was the fielding of the Bodr.ey Bros, of the St. Cvrills.
