SOFTBALL SEASON
OPENED LAST NIGHT
WITH DOUBLE-HEADER
The Base-City Indoor Softball
season got off to a flying start
last evening with a double header.
A large crowd attended despite
inclement weather.
The opening game was a down
to-the-wire thriller between the
Polar Hornets and the ACS Sham
rocks. The Hornets won 14 to 13
in the bottom of the seventh.
Starting battery for the Hor
nets was Felix Bolt and Arne Cas
tell. Bolt was relieved on the
mound by Tony Willoya in the
filth. For the Shamrocks it was
Norm Atuk and Herb Williams.
Atuk, known hereabouts as the
“Arctic Flash,” went the distance
for the Shamrocks, striking out
eight men.
In the nightcap the Nome Na
nooks blasted the Air Force Jets
31 to 10 in a slugfest rdyal.
Corky Kost and Don Miller start
ed for the Nanooks, Sam Atuk
spelled Corky in the fourth. Parris
and Louis went the route for the
Jets.
Due to pre - Easter activities
there will be no games this com
ing week, hut action will resume
on April 3 when the Nanooks
meet the Shamrocks and the Hor
nets clash with the Jets. April
6th will see the Hornets and the
Nanooks tangle and the Sham
rocks and the Jets play the night
cap.
