BASEBALL After extended sea duty, the New Iersey diamond squad was a little rough at the edges but nevertheless closed an exciting summer of baseball by taking one of three contests in the annual BatCruLant tourney. Beating the USS Macon for their only win of the tourna- ment, the lersey squad suffered successive setbacks to the USS Columbus and the USS lowa, and were thereby eliminated from fur- ther competition. While both contests were tight all the way, the lersey voyagers gave way in the latter innings. Four New lersey players were selected on the All-BatCruLant tourney squad: Iohn Dixon, Sn: Robert Weeks, PFC: Donald Albany, PFC: Charles Gower, CPL. The team had operated with Ens. Louis Hamel and LTIG William Whitridge at the helm. 1 f l 1 4 t SOFTBALL Always a popular sport among lersey gobs, the softball activity was on the ship's team level during and immediately following the Midshipman Cruise. Under the tutelage of En- sign Louis Hamel, the New Iersey Squad's ac- tion culminated with its entrance into 1955 BatCruLant Tourney. The Iay's softballers bat- tled successfully in the first rounds of the tour- nament, only to be edged by the Iowa in the finals, 3-l. On the inter-divisional level teams were organized midway during the Med tour First round play of the 22 team two league organl zation took place in Trieste While the program accelerated sharply to a heavy Barcelona slate the enthusiastic support given the league divisional action in the Med has paved the way for plans of the league s continuation throughout the ship s 1956 schedule 4
