Somerset aims to clinch league pennant with Friedens clash
Central league title watch centers on Somerset manager Wayne Brennan as a win over Friedens would seal the pennant regardless of other results. Rooster Cugini of Friedens refrains from comment after an earlier ejection by umpire Red Davis, with Harrison unlikely to field for Friday’s finale. Buckwheat harvest under way signals farmers’ winter plans as blackberries face a frosty setback in Fayette County while Somerset county yields a hopeful crop. Rain arrives to ease drought as grass greens after sunburned days.

Reds Try To Take Youth Assembly On
The world assembly of youth at Cornell University faces Communist pressure as pamphleteers disrupt the Ithaca gathering. Pakistan delegate Nassem Anwar Baig reports offers of free passage and expenses to Berlin, which delegates reject, paying their own way with some assistance from their home youth groups.
