Pirate Pitching, Hitting Put
Team in Conference Lead
The P.H.S. Pirates now share
the Washtenaw Conference lead
with Saline in baseball and the
pitchers of both teams are getting a lot of credit for the standings. Both the Pirates and the
Hornets have won three, lost
none of their games.
Pirate pitcher, Bob Williams
allowed just one hit as his team
whipped arch-rival Dexter 9-0,
here Friday. Bob had good batting support, too, with Don
Barker whacking a triple and
two singles, batting in four runs;
Terry Rowell and Carmen Bonsair slapping out a pair of singles. It was Bonsair's second-inning hit that brought in the run
needed to win the game.
Williams struck out five,
walked four and hit one batter
The only hit off the Pirate pitcher was Dreadnaught Nelson
Clark's single in the sixth. Don
Ackley is credited with helping
Williams when he walked two
men in the seventh. Williams is
a junior, right-hander; Ackley,
also a junior, is a south-paw.

Michigan.
The transition from gray winter to green spring is a joy to
watch in the Water Wonderland, and perhaps no where in
the world do people take so
much joy in watching itPractically everybody knows
about the Tulip Time Festival at

what it truly is: A festival of
Spring.
Tulip Time is scheduled for
May 17-21 this year. May and
June are the months when
spring has reached its peak, and
most of Michigan makes t h e
most of the season which n o t
only denotes the end of winter
but also is the harbinger of the
state's fabulous tourist and resort season.
The State Tourist Council
lists 42 events and celebrations
in its May. and June calendar,
copies of which are available
on request.
Benton Harbor and St. Joseph, the "twin cities" of Southwest Michigan, celebrate spring
with a Blossomtime Festival
which is a tribute to the area's
fruit-growing industry April 28May 6.
This event includes celebrations that are virtually sure to
appeal to the tastes of practically
everyone.

Whatever form the celebration takes, spring is the thing

Speaking of the Dutch,

group of state legislators w h o

countries have formed their OWJV
"Klompen Klub" which t h e y
hope will someday rival the enjoyment which all Michigan citizens get from similiar nationality groups.
The Irish and their St. Patrick's Day rites can claim more
attention than any of the other
nationality groups represented
among the lawmakers.
Polish, Italian and numerous
other "mother countries*' a r e
represented, however.
The Klompen Klub may even
steal a march on the o t h e r
nationality groups by having a
more effective organization to
start with than any of the others.
