Starting the eighth, it was. still a 4-3 ball game only to have the losers piush over the tying tally in the first of the eighth, but their success was short- lived. as Navy sent two runners across the plate in the last half of the same frame to provide their winning marlin, Sumruerside being retired scoreless in the ninth

Playing smart ball afield and hitting with runners aboard Wings o,f the Knights of Columbus soft- ball league last night retained their last year's title when they sent the Tigers down to a 27-6 defeat. It was the champions fourth victory in the best of seven playoff series. They lost the first game, then came back to take three straight, lost the fifth game and last night definitely showed their superiority in their one-sided victory.

In the first innings neither squad although they had runners on. could not score but in the first half of the second, timely hitting plus Tiger errors saw the Wings send ten runners across the plate and from then on the issue was never in doubt.

Tigers accounted for two runs in tho last half of the same frame but the winners came back in the third to account for two more. Six runs in the fifth af- ter both teams had gone scoreless in the fourth and two more in the sixth gave the champs a 20-2 lead but the Tigers pushed three run- ners across in the last. of the sixth to make it 20-5. In their last two turns at bat Wings added seven more runs while holding their op- ponents to a solitary tally in th ast of the ninth to complete the rout of the challengers for their CITJWTI,

Wallis Shepherd on the mound for the Wings had the Tigers claws dulled all through the tilt. Hits they could gamer off his offerings were few and far between.

Connolly on the mound for the losers was hit rather freely but poor support accounted in a large part for the one-sided defeat his team suffered. '
