-Conchs Humble South Broward Nine Friday, 17-4 Lastres, Bean Tame Bulldogs As Conchs Win 14th Victory By OSCAR MILIAN The Key West high schoo paseball team had no trou- ble in putting away South Broward 17 to 4 last night at Wickers Stadium as the Conchs belted 16 hits off the deliveries of Dick Mullikin, Dan Phister and Tal Hern- don while George Lastres fed the Bulldogs with a fast ball that. kept the South Broward lads tamed. Lanky George Lastres kept the Bulldogs under con- trol until the 4th inning, when after retiring the first ten batters to face him in order, eight of whom went out through the strikeout routine, Biff Salgado let Jer- || ry Fortier’s grounder to first get away, Ken Broussau lined a single to center field and both runners scored on Dan Phister’s double to left. South Broward put over 2 more tallies in the. sixth inning on three Page 10 Sixth Naval District title.

Earlier this year, the team from Green, Cove Springs copped the 1954 Northeast Florida Golden Gloves team championship. And fighting for the Key West Navy will be the team that scored an overwhelming victory over the City of Miami pugilists a week ago. The all-amateur matches will be opened to the general public. For convenience, the Fleming St. Gate will be opened and tickets ;| will be on sale at the’ gate. All proceeds from the fights will be turned over to the Navy Re- lief Society whose annual fund raising drive is now underway. The Green Cove Bullets will ar- riye in Key West with an impres- sive string of wins on which to rely. Their last big victory won them the team championship for the 1954 Northeast Florida Tourna- ment of Champions. While Key West Navy has no titles of which to boast, they scored impressively last week against the City of Miami boxers and came through with hands down victories in six out of the nine matches. Fighting for the Bullets of Green Cove Springs tomorrow night will be: Don Horner, middleweight, a knockout winner in the N. E. Flor- ida Golden Glove Championships. He also gained experience in the 1953 A. A. U. (novice) matches Z 4 i with Salgado taking third on Play. Leeburg Knowles singl- as Salgado crossed the platter the fifth run of the inning.

THE KEY WEST CITIZEN DOUG LAIDLOW (left), a veteran of more than 150 fights, holds the title of Northeast Florida AAU welterweight champion. He also holds the Northeast Florida Golden Gloves title and the along with middleweight Bob Schaefer, right, will represent the Green Cove Springs boxers tonight when they tackle the local Navy boxing team at 8 o'clock in the Navy's Walker Field. Schaefer, who has lost just four of 22 fights, holds the Northeast Florida Golden Gloves champion- 10 Bout Boxing Card Set At Walker Field Bob Schaefer, middleweight, A. N. E. Flosida Golden Gloves Champion, 52-53, Schaefer saw ac- tion in the Florida A. A. U. (open) championships of ’53-’54 Last year, he was the 1953 Sixth Naval Dis- trict middleweight champion and has an impressive tally of 22 fights with only four loses. Gene King, light - welterweight, is a young fellow with not quite as much: experience as the two previous fighters, but a good man to watch. He competed as a novice in the 1953 A. A, U. Champion- ships. Mickey Howe, featherweight, was the N. E. Florida Golden Glove Champion this year in his class His experience broadened when he competed in the Golden Glove Championships in New York City in 1953. Although Howe has not had too many fights, his lightning fast foctwork makes him a dangerous opponent. : Doug Laidlow, welterweight, a ringwise veteran of over 150 ama- teur fights was the 1953-54 N. E. Florida A. A.-U. champion. He al- so took all honors in the 1953-54 Golden Glove Championships and in 1953 was the welterweight Sixth Naval District Champion Abe Hutchins, flyweight, was the 1954 N. E. Florida (open) Golden Gloves Champion and runner-up in the 1953 A. A, U. Champion- ship. He has had over 15 fights with only three loses Willie Deeringwater, light-heavy- weight, is a noted hard hitter and pile driver. Although his experi- ence has also been limited, many expect him to come through with an excellent showing.

Sammy White’s three-run homer in the third inning helped Boston into a 7-0 lead and the Senators just failed to catch up. Rookie Truman Clevenger, mak- ing his first major league start, doled out one hit in the first five innings. Ellis Kinder bailed him out in the sixth after a pair of two-run homers by Jim Busby and Clyde Volimer. Roy Sievers hit an- other two-run homer off Kinder in the seventh.
