Softball season opens with Cotton Oil Mill win over ISCO
Mayor Presnell threw the first ball to start the season as Cotton Oil Mill beat International Shoe 12 to 9 and Reid Roofing toppled Boll Weevils 15 to 7 in the debut games. ISCO led early with four-base hits by Crain and Bartholomew, but Cotton Oil rallied in the sixth behind Vinson Tandy and Hill to seize the lead. Bijou Tech fell to Reid Roofing as Foster, Page, and others produced key runs, while Lewis & Matthews players traveled to Indiana for a dealer meeting. The Red Cross appeals for contributions as Europe endures devastation and displaced villagers.
