Still there were spots of some very good baseball on the Kid diamond. jim Allen was the main hurler for the Kids. He was relieved by Bruce Banning and Jim Schwartz. Ruf Coes did an excellent job catching. The rest of the infield jobs were filled by Len Gibbons at first base, Steve Merrill at second, jim Schwartz at shortstop, and Bob Dickerson at third base. The Midgets' fine record of eight wins, three losses, and one tie gave them the valley championship. Pitching is the mainstay of any ball club and Tuck Ingersoll pro- vided the Midgets with some excellent hurling. Short- stop Keith Braden was described by THE PIGTAIL as the sparkplug of the Midgets' infield . Some of the others who made themselves known either at bat or in the field were Deen Baldwin, Ted Madara, 'Marcus' Haines, Jeff Geilich, and Tony Adams. The lowers crews were outstanding in their greenness this year. Six members of the Fourth and Fifth boats were New Boys while others included converted baseball men and an ex cox. The Fourth boat iinished the season with Bob Rodenberg, Cox, Chip Monck, Strokeg Marshall Pea- body, Threeg Gill Peabody, Twog and Chad Lockwood, Bow.
