Local baseball notes and all star chatter from Am arillo
This afternoon Budgie Hayden looms in the Dinner Tournament at the Ross Rogers Course while Dr Jack Younger awaits in the morning. Cardinals lose to Philadelphia 10 to 7 in a tight race with the Dodgers, who fell to Cincinnati 5 to 2, and the Gold Sox drop their sixth straight to Abilene 10 to 1. Five Gold Sox make the all star game at Lubbock on July 26 with honors for Lamprich Evans Bauman Sutch and Duarte. Moran misses out and is blamed for a fine defensive grab. Leo Thomas is praised as a top prospect though unpopular for showmanship and umpire chasing. Jim Matthews is debated for inclusion against Lamprich. Howard Green cites the box score while defending Matthews. Abilene writers question Lamprich over Matthews and note Abilene did not place a catcher.
