~~I'l~nce exerted itself from the (.opening inning when the lead-off man walked and the seeond man tripled him home to make it a-o. As far as Glenville was concerned this would have been enough. How­ner, the veteran Marietta club continued to pour in the runs on a 'Ci)mbinaUon of walks, hits, and errors.

The 1:oiggest blows in this attack were home runs b~' Jim Ballentine and 'Sonny" Hanlon, Glenville was held to two singles by three Mari -

Working out on their own thus far, the Pioneer cindermep have been wh1pping themselves in 'l;hape to compete in the two major track events in West Virginia, the Gazette Relays and the WVIAC State meet.

Those out for track are Marvin Stewart, Frank Stanevich, Joe Munoz, Al Hodges, Ed "Speedy" Watkins, Bob Hoffman, and Frank Fultineer,

Hoffman is reputed to be one of 'the best cross-country runners in Lhe state.
