A very good contest was played today by the Dukes and the Coconuts. The Coconuts led all game until the last inning when in the top of ninth Steve Hill's team scored 6 runs to go ahead. The Coconuts could not match them and didn't score in the bottom of the ninth when the opportunity was there.

 The Coconuts were led in hitting by Freddie Gonzales, Bob Zelazny, Joe Letourneau, Bob Hudson and Don Torok.  Joe LeTourneau gave excellent defense in left field.
The Dukes were led in batting by Steve Hill, George Vanderhyde, Willie Morton, Ken Gelinas, Wayne Vorhes, Sam Lopez and Ed Spegel.
Wayne Vorhes had a home run with a well hit ball to left center field. Steve Hill and Joe Peske each made excellent defensive catches in the outfield.

Final score: Dukes 17
                   Coconuts 14
