All was well for the sailors— for a while—but the soldiers start- ed their offensive in the fifth when Hank Sprawka, catcher, gained first on a fielder’s choice and Po- andl, fine shortstop, doubled. Sprawka scored in a close play on a fielder’s choice and Jack Fo- ley, Army hurler, gained first. Then Benny,;Rizzi, third sacker, lived on’ a fielder’s choice as Poandl slid into home safely. By that time Foley was on third. Rizzi promptly stole second; no one was there to take the peg and both runners scored to knot the count. Thus, all was fine—the Army was hot and had visions of a Startling upset and the - league leaders, some of the fans thought, were beginning to crack. However, Harrison’s triple and Dixon's single settled all that and the NOB} weathered the fifth inning storm for their 54-4 victory. Dixon was the only victor to get two hits in four trips. Poand! got the only two bingles for the en- tire Army team. Tonight at 5:30 the Coast Guard | second place team in the Amer- ican division, opposes Boca Chica.
