BASEBALL With four returning lettermen, two men of experience from Los Angeles schools, and a host of promising recruits, Coach Sperry, baseball mentor, had good reason to expect fruitful returns from the 1930 diamond machine. A large number of practice tilts were carded and pelota practice was taken up with vigor. Three games with champ city leaguers of Lincoln were marked on the wrong side of the books, while the Blasters succedeed in taking over Van Nuys, Hollywood, South Pasadena, and Huntington Park, while holding the Oxy Frosh, 6-3, and the Cal Tech nine, 2-1, tying the Uni- versity Hi at 6-6. Lefty Sutherland, a promising sophomore, showed up well on the mound, as did Stoner, and Captain Curtis. Behind the plate, )immie Rilotti took charge with admirable ability. Brady and Barton, newcomers, took over the first and third and displayed good form. In the final game with Lincoln, Lefty Curtis held the Tigers to three hits, while his team mates hit the oppos- ing twirler six times, tallying on but two, to lose the ball game, 4 to 2. Due to active work at the plate by Donnally, Brady, and Bilotti, the locals took a 3-2 win over Hunting- ton Park before tackling Long Beach in the first conference tilt. In this game the locals were leading 5-4 in the last of the ninth frame, when the Blaster twirler blew up, to give way to Curtis, who fanned a pair of men before Carlson, Oiler fielder, connected to drive in a run before him on a homer, deciding the issue. A game with the Citrus nine resulted in a 6-3 defeat after a change in the entire Blaster lineup. The second conference game, and defeat, came at the hands of San Diego, 4 to I. Ten scattered hits sufficed to give the Diegans a victory, after Galasso, Caveman twirler, fanned eighteen Glendale pelota-men. In this game Sperry shoved Barton, third baseman, in as the clean-up batter with better results than in previous batting orders. In the next game, with Alhambra, the locals were able to connect with the pill but five times, losing the contest, 3 to 1, after Sutherland was nicked eight times. Rounding out his high school career, Capt. Lefty Curtis pitched a no-hit game to blank Santa Ana, 11 to 0, in the last game of the conference season. Ctipr. Curtis IW
