Eliot-Dunster Tie 7 to 7, Winthrop Wins in Baseball

Eliot and Dunster House battled for the Indoor Baseball league lead for well over an hour yesterday, and at the end of play neither had the lead, for the game was called at the end of the seventh with the score 7-7.

With a 15-hit barrage off Adama pitcher Bill Whitman, Winthrop burled the Goldcoasters 11-3 in the other softball encounter. Ross Downes collected three hits in three attempts for the Puritans. Johnny Butler hurled for the winners.

Feeling ran high in the Eliot-Dunster game, and hard, base running almost resulted in several players being put hors de combat. In the absence of ace pitcher Madey, Joe Stern was called on for mound duty for the Elephant, while the Funsters used Roger Kinnincutt. Red Lee of Eliot led the Hitters with two doubles. The Funsters had the bases full and only one out with the score tied in the last of the seventh, but snappy Eliot fielding forced the game to a tie.
