Patterson Softball and Local Sports Roundup

Softball was rained out early week but Richardson beat the Night Owls 4 to 2 at Williams Field on Saturday. Hugh Bugg returned to first base for a strong showing. Tennis games followed, and locals enjoyed the day despite muddy ground. Community improvements include city help for yard and ditch upkeep and a new cannery thanks to Meikle and Moore. Local garden brightenings feature several residents, while horse shoe action sees Gore and Brown contesting the lead with Powell and Royal close behind. Martinsville visitors Ruth Chaney and Grace Newman stayed with Velma Clark, and Bracey Virginia visitors Bill Shaw and wife spent the weekend with J H Kennemar.
