HAMS Favored To Civil Service

News CIVIL SERVICE EXAMS Cop Intramural Title

By CPL. HAL PIERCE

The Intramural Softball championship race narrowed down to two teams last Tuesday as MA- CS v.-diked over VMF-214, 11-0, and _TAMS triumphed over VMF- 232 by a 12-2 count.

THE VMF-232 'Red Devils' and VMF-214, having no chance to win either firs: or second place due to the losses Tuesday, fought it out Wednesday after- I

noon for third place. The Devils, chagrined at losing out in the championship, took it out on the luckless Black Sheep nine, trampling it 16-6 in a wild- swinging affair.

The first of the -two out of three" series to determine the championship between HAMS and MACS turned into a pitcher's duel with HAMS Pitcher John Boden spinning a no-hitter to win 1-0 over MACS' Jim Ray. The lone tally of the game was an unearned run in the fifth inning.

WITH THE FIRST game of the series tucked away. the un- defeated HAMS softballers are heavy favorites to walk away with the title, although the hard fighting MACS team will not let itself be counted out.

In the first play-off for the Intramural Softball championship, VMF-214 was knocked out of contention by MACS 11-0, and VMF-232 was eliminated by HAMS, 12-2.

Tr MACS Nvarr, with PitPh- er Jim Ray shackling the Black Sheep bats, showed a definite edge over its opponents from the first. MACS Lead-Off Hitter, Reed singled in the first inning. stole second and went to third on Callihan's one-bagger. Reed then came home on a VMF-214 error and was followed shortly after by Callihan when Babgett blasted a line single. After that. however, the Black Sheep had their way, for the moment, as two fielder's choices and a pop fly halted the MACS attack. This merely served to delay the in- evitable, as it happened, for the control squadron nine came back with a vengeance, completely dominating the play for the re- mainder of the game.

The VMF-214 softballers val- iantly attempted to get back in the game, but faced with the torrid pitching of Ray. went down in order in all but two frames.

THE WINNING PITCHER w2a Ray, who allowed only two blows and no runs, while Loser Al ;

Perez of VMF-214 gave up 12 hits, resulting in 11 MACS tallies.

In the HAMS versus VMT-232, tilt, the maintenance squadron ream converted 11 hits into 12 runs to rout the strangely meek Red Devils 12-2.

AS THE HAMS batsmen bela- bored VMF-232 Pitcher Al Hack- ney, their own moundsman, John Boden, bewildered the hereto- fore arrogant Red Devil club- bers with a dazzling assortment of pitching stuff," reluctantly giving tip five scat:ered single-1 base blows.

Leading the slugging parade for the victors was John Shellito, with a homer, a double and a single. and Ed Krolikowaki. who collected a brace of singles.

THE HAMS NINE took a 2-0 lead in the first inning. but the fighter squadron crew tied it up with one run in each of the second and third stanzas. This was bu, a brief respite, however, as the not-to-be-denied HAMS bat-

The favored DAMS softball team held a distinct advant- age over its rival. MACS. as the paper nein to press last night. by raging out the control squadron 1-0. K ednesday. on the strength of a no-hitter by HAMS Pitcher John Boden.

That the came was a pitcher's duel all the way is evident in the fact that the lone run of the game was unearned. The tally came in the fifth inning. after Lindy and Hink- son sing -d. and an error by MACS etcher Babgett en- abled Lindy te reach thira. Pitcher /in. Rk. y then let loose with a wild pitch which brought Lindy scampering home. The HAMS nine had no chance to retaliate. as Boden set it down one-two-three in all but one inning. striking out nine of the 22 batters to face him. However. Jim Ray proved his right to hold his head up as be faced only 24 batters. striking out three of them and allowing but five scattered hits.

ters roared back with five coun- ters in their half of the third frame. From then on, the runs piled up by the maintenance team were unnecessary. as ato- den kept VMF-232 sluggers suf- ficiently off balance with his faultless hurling to forestall any Red Devil rally.

The win afforded HAMS the right to vie with MACS, winners over VIIF-214, for the championship in a "best two out of three" series, which began Wednesday evening.

232 SWAMPS 361

14-1 IN 5 FRAMES The VW' 232 "Red Devils",

with the accent on devils, seemed just that to HMR-361 in an intramural game last week. The gatbopper" crew was over- whelmed to the tune of 14-1.

EACH CLUB SCORED a run in its half of the first inning, but from that point on, VMF-232 asserted its superiority. The care- free Red Devils chalked up five runs in the second, four in the third and added insult to in- jury by shovina across four more runs in the fifth frame. Al Hackney, pitcher tor the fighter squadron, spun a one- hitter to the "whirlybird" nine, Abutting the door on them with only one hit in the first stanza.

The game was called at the end of the fifth inning, according to a softball rule which de- crees that any team leading by 10 or more runs at the end of the fifth, is automatically declared the winner.

ERRORS AND LOOSE in- field control, resulting in stolen bases, spelled out the tragic story as the helicopter crew committed 10 errors and allowed six stolen bases in the five inning tilt.

TASK FORCE IN FINAL TILT

The HQ-HQSQ Big Blue softball team handed TASK FORCE a 9-1 lacing last week in the final game e regular - tramural Softball season.

HQ -HQSQ PITCHER Frank Young allowed the TASK FORCE batters seven hits, but scattered them so effectively the ground troops were unable to push across more than one run. While Young was handcuf- fing the TASK FORCE batters, his teammates were building a lead for him at the expense of TASK FORCE Pitcher Frank Reeve. However, even in this department, Young was making himself troublesome for his opponents as he collected two hits, a double and a single to pace the Big Blue.

The headquarters team pre- vailed on Reeve and Co. for two runs in each of the first, second and fifth frames and scored an additional three tallies in the third period for a total of nine runs The Big Blue collected nine hits off Reeve and were aided in the _r cause by six walks and an error, chargeable to the TASK FORCE team. 1

JIM LEVY OF HQ-HQSQ blasted the lone home run of the game in the fifth stanza with two men on.

TASK FORCE seemed ready to give an accounting of itself in the fifth inning, but with one man on and one out, Kailua slapped a slow grounder back to the mound. Young threw to second and the double play relay to first was in time to get Kailua and retire the side, ending the threat.

Lewis Todd Wins Bull Riding Event

PFC Lewis Todd, a member of headquarters squadron, Ma- rine Corps Air Station, Kaneohe, won top honors in the bull riding event at tac Kaneohe raclen Sundey. Bobbie Karnie placed second.

HAMS Drop 4th To Ramblers

In Overtime Tilt The Kaneohe HAMS basketball

team absorbed its fourth consec- utive loss Monday night, 61-50, at the hands of the Ramblers. The gatrie took place in the YM- CA gym.

DESPITE THE ---. h . of Guard Paul Smith, individual high Sc ore. for the night with 24 points, `- AMS foiled to best the -arnpant :,,r biers. Holding a 13- 7 lead a: the end of tat first qvarter, tae sailors halted a second peraal cutge HAMS to remain in a-ont 24-21. With Smith and Teloeis Green paving the way. the Kaneohe team pulled out all stops in the third stanza and held the lead by 4 points, 36-32, when the buzzer rang for the final period.

The Ramblers proved equal to the challenge. however, and, with Sailor Jiari Revert taking the helm by virtue of his timely and accurate shooting and flashy ball- handling, tied ap the game in the final seconds to necessitate an overtime period.

Weedy Jones Pump seemed to be pretty high on pro-

spect, of armed forces clubs in the coming grid campaign. H, told a sad story of how the civilian elevens would be faced with this or that problem while trying to meet the service teams on

an even keel. Even went so far as to tell how most of the play- for-fun civvies would have to work on a regular job all da.. dash over to some place on the Ala ai for a hurried practice session before Old Sol snuck beyond the horizon_ and so on.

Don't get me wrong.- he' was quick to add. That is no alibi if the civilian teams can't hold their own on the field against the service clubs.-

Pump elaborated on his reasons for thinking Army. Navy s owing

d w 'ins would produce squads worth going out to see this

THE FINAL THREE minutes opened with the Kaneohe team in possession of the ball. Em- ploying the fast break down the court, the tea:n immediately set up a play that netted two points, as Smith slipped through the Rambler defense for a lay-up. The sailors immediately retali- ated with Revert showing the way, dumping in a one-handed set shot from 20 feet out. Show- ing increasingly improving form, the Navy team put on a rally that bewildered its opponents and left no doubt as to the outcome, outscoring the HAMS five 15-4 in the overtime.

The game did not affect either *eam's standings in the Summer Basketball league. howeaer as the tilt v.-as a nonleague affray.

Survey of Kauai Planned by Meson

A 20-man team from the 1st Provisional Amphibious Recon-1 naissance Group, with representa-1 t'ves of the 1st Provisional Marine Air-Ground Task Force, will leave for the Garden Island- Kauai Aug. 23 for the purpose of conducting a survey of land areas for future maneuvers.

MAJ. WILLIAM CASE. G-3 for the task force, said late yesterday that the surf specialists of the recon group will survey the waters offshore for depths, tides and possible obstacles, while the task force group will make a survey of inland areas. He also indicated that the presently-based recon group will probably not conduct maneuvers on Kauai since "planning rut such an operation will not be completed and necessary arrangements made before this unit is ready for rotation to the Mainland." "Graduation" maneuvers will, instead, be held on Maui as has been the practice in the past.

REASON FOR THE survey, it was indicated, was the fact that available land areas on Maui have been found unsuitable in many ways for proper use of aircraft in close air support work during maneuvers. It is hoped that available areas on Kauai will remedy this.

AIR FORCE PILOT (Continued from pagt. 1)

Fort Jackson, S. C . for two years. being discharged as a sergeant. Then he enlisted in the Naval

I Reserve and caught an active duty tour aboard a des:royer in the Atlantic before again being

i discharged in 19a0 to enter Lilt Air Force.

Commissioned a second lieu- tenant at Williams Air Force Base in Arizona. in May, 1951. he soon found himself flying missions over N.arth Korea. He served with the 51st Fighter In- terceptor group early in his tour, then joined the 130th Fighter Bomber group. His last two years were spent with the 12th Strategic Fighter wing in Japan and the States.

He finally got around to finding how the Marine Corps operates. when the Air Force assigned him to the "Black Sheep" squadron at El Toro Marine Corps Air Station. San- ta Ana. Calif.. shortly before the unit shipped out for Ka- neohe. A veteran of three Korean

campaigns and holder of the Air Medal. the Air Force pilot recently completed carrier quali- fication landings. a pastime that is unusual for an Air Force man, as he will quickly admit.

"It wasn't as bad as I had expected." he says. "but I wouldn't want to spend 'lie rest of my life at it"

Sport Page Ed The WINDWARD MARINE has

a new sports editor.

He's Cpl. Hal Izb.erce, who has been serving with, the public information sectio; here for the past two months Having beers

here for nearly a year, Cp. Pierce has served at the com- missary store and station operations prior to taking up PIO work.

"It doesn't look like an easy job," the new sports editor de- clares. -I'll have some mighty high standards to seep up. I'm speaking of the work Sgt. Tom Creachbaum has done for the past year.''

Creachbaum, who became sports editor when the station publication was a mimeograph- ed sheet. will leave soon for the Mainland where he will be released to inactis e duty. Creach- baum was perhaps known for his outstanding coverage of the Intramural sports program here on the station. Main of the officials in the program have commented on his ;many excellent contributions to sports here at Kaneohe. In addition to his duties as

sports editor, Creachbaum was instrumental in the beginning of the weekly half-hour radio program which is aired each Satur- day over Radio Station KANI in Kaneohe. On the program, he handled the sports cast. giving Island-wide coverage to local Ka- neohe Marine sport activities.

Cpl. Pierce worked on a school weekly prior to entering the Ma- rine Corps. At that time, he ma- jored in the sports field, and since then. has become well - versed in the field of athletics.

The corporal urges any and all comments and suggestion, which will benefit the handling of sport- ing news here on the station. All sport news events, meetings, etc., can be called in to him at 72104.

214 Wins Over

MABS 12-7 To ICI. trnax

The

Quarter VMF-214 "Black Sheep"

climaxed the intramural Soft- ball season by defeating MABS 12-7 behind a sparkling eight-hit pitching performance by Al Perez.

AFTER GIVING UP four runs in the first frame, Perez tighten- ed up, allowing MARS only three runs on five blows in the final, six innings. Meanwhile, his teammates, collecting five tallies in the second to put 214 in front, were making life miserable for opposing Pitcher Jim Hawkins. The Black Sheep attack, led by

!Catcher Jim Kohl, continued to click. reaching Hawkins almost at will and scoring in all but the first and sixth periods.

The first inning proved to be the big one for the MARS nine, as Lead-Off Batter Carl Pottontf slapped a single to left field, but was thrown out at second on a fielder's choice when Frank Por-1 ter poked a grounder to Shortstop! Bobby Ogden. Kabumi Onaoto drew a walk, sending Porter to second. Back-to-back singles by Henderson and Waddell. followed by a "Texas Leaguer" by Dick

rion. which dropped behind short, accounted for three more

Carion was tagged at second on a fielder's choice when Spidelmyer rapped out an easy roller to third. Vern Snow flied out to left field to retire the side.

VMF -214'S KOHL opened the second inning fireworka when he slipped a single into the outfield. He advanced to second on a passed ball by the catcher and came home on a sharp single by Ron Haight. Successive one-bag- gers by Pat Tennyson, Otis Ivy and Perez, coupled with an error by Third Sacker Jim Carion, accounted for three more runs. -Angel" Sidle scored the fifth counter when Centerfielder Bill Porter dropped a fly ball. Guy Badger struck out to end the inning.

The winning pitcher was Al Perez, who gave up eight hits, while Jim Hawkins was charged with the MABS loss. giving away a total of 12 hits to winning VMF-214.

Special Services Initiates Sailing Lessons; Has Boats

A sailing class is being sponsored by the Station special services for personnel interested in sailing. Two 16-fout sailing sloops have been pur- chased by special at rvices. and if a sufficient mantel- of personnel show an active Interest, more boat, will be ordered.

LAST WEEKEND A -roving range" was set up in the Fort Hase area by the members. This type range is a series of targets set up in such a way that dill ferent positions must be employed by the shooter in order to hit each target. The range at Fort Hase was built according to National Field Archery Assn. specifications. It consists of 14 targets, each one de- manding the maximum skill from each archer.

Tournaments are being planned by the club as soon as a sufficient number of people have joined ana are trained. Trophies, donated by the station special services, will be awarded to the top shooters in the tournaments. However, this does not mean that a novice in the game need necessarily end up in last place. The tournament will be judged on a handicap basis, as in golf, with the top spot going to the person with the highest score balanced by that !person's handicap.

THE KBHC IS sponsored by the station special services and everyone interested in archery is urged to contact either the special services office or one of the officers of the club. Persons eligible to become members of KBHG are, all Marines and Navy personnel stationed at Kaneohe and their dependents. The club's regular meetings will be held the second Wednesday of each mouth. The meeting place has not yet been chosen.

Civilians Receive Course in First Aid

A beneficial suggestion that first aid training be made available on this Station for civilian personnel resulted in such a course being sponsored, according to Maj. Ray Bishop, industrial relations officer.

The program offered was the Red Cross Standard first aid course and was presented by Mr. Samuel 0. Wallace, Hawaii American Red Cross.

Twenty-five civilian personnel already have completed the course successfully, Ma). Bish- op said. They all were awarded the Red Cross Certificate of Eligibility which authorizes them to administer first aid to per-

( sons an need.

This is an ea.. _lent opportun- ity, according to Maj. Patrick Harrison, special services officer, to learn the "how and whys" of sailing The major added that special services eventually hopes to have enough participants in the sport to bold sailing tournaments

A qualified instructor will be present at all times and will ex- plain fully the operation and handling of the sloops. All personnel interested are requested to phone the special services ad-, lice at 72061.

FLY AND MOSQUITO PRECAUTIONS OUTLINED

By H. L. SISK, HMC, USN

I Editor's Note: According to the sanitation department. an increase in flies and mosquitoes has been nGted. The following is published in the interest of decreasing this nuisance by pointing out several precautions which personnel and dependents should take.

Flies are a nuisance and a

menace to health. They carry 30 i chances for better health will cr more diseases, including ty.. be greatly enhanced. phoid, dysentery, cholera, rrhea and tuberculosis.

iia- Disc to the returning of the Kona winds in the next fex

lweeks, the fly and mosquito pop- i ulation will be increased. How- ever, if the above precautions are followed closely, the pests can be controlled.

AS MANY AS 25,000,000 mi- crobes have been found on one fly's body. lanagiise the trail of contamination left by a single fly allowed to light on the family dinner table'

Because of the characteristic regurgitation of the fly oefore feeding, the cause of fly specks" on their resting places, food standing about in uncovered dishes may be heavily contami- nated. Dysentery germs, for example, may live in the intestines of the fly for about five days. Since the travel distance of a fly is about eight miles in one day, one can readily understand the danger of this method of contamination,

WITH THE ADVENT of many new insecticides, the health menace of the fly has been re- duced. Every effort should be made to cover breeding places of flies and mosquitoes, prevent- ing the larvae, or young of these insects, from growing to ma- turity. Gsarbage cans and trash heaps are likely breeding places for flie- : stagnant pools of water are favorite breeding places for mosquitoes. Old cans or bottles, roof drains. lily ponds. sewer basil's and similar water areas should be hunted out and spray- ed with an insecticide.

Whi:e certain insecticides have been called miracle performers. they are not a substitute for hy- giene and cleanliness. Homes that are not kept clean are a hig menace to human health Gar- bage standing in kitchens and soilea dishes are it r invitation to :*:sects. articularly flies and cockroaches.

PERSONNEL OF TUB station must cooperate with the sanitation department by keeping their homes and surroundings clean. Contamination will not flourish in dean surroundings and your
