STRIKE ONE ' A STRIKE . TWO STR IKE THREE SOFTBALL The L. A. Softball team has fared quite well in estPac Clompetition, and for i ood reason since they were 19(52 C hanipionship team of the Kle enth Naval District, Long Beach area. The baseball season was drawins; to a close as we started our cruise but the softball team continued a winning streak of practice games in anti- cipation of the challenges to be met in the last two months of the cruise. The hurler-coach LTJG R.R. Roberts expects this spring in WcstPac and back in Long Beach that the team will go on to win more honors. His pitching and that of R.A. Hunter, SMC are a pretty good indication that history will repeat itself, for these L.A. sportsmen. BASKETBALL The ships Basketball team with a 10 — record in fleet games represented us in yet another sport as top-notch competitiors. A eraging 74 points a game the members o f the B-Ball team, to date, have 17 wins and only 3 losses to their credit. The games they lost were to the highly re- garded ()kosuka Sea-Hawks, the Hong Kong Meteors, a semi-pro team, and the Air Force team from Itazuki. High points of the season to date were the games with L ' SS AJAX, the station ship team in Sasebo, and L ' SS CASTOR, played in Subic Bay. We can ' t say at this point whether the round ball team is the undisputed cham- pionship team in WestPac, but the impres- sive record to date tends to indicate that games scheduled on our return to Voko- suka should settle any questions.

Visits with foreiu;n ships gave us renewed respect for the Navies of our Allies. The operations with the British was an experience from n hich a great deal was learned on both sides. We exchanged four men during one day of operations and more of us had opportunities to discuss maneu- vers when the cruiser HMS TK.FR, flattop HMS HFRMKS and their accompanying combatant and support ships were moored nearby in Subic Bay. ■ fc;-
