Deacons Capture Volley Ball Title

Kirkland turned out a stellar Volleyball team Monday to down Dunster, two games to one, in the playoff to decide the champion of the volleyball league, after the Deacons and Funsters ended their regular schedule deadlocked for the league lead.

Jim Melman and Jack Dixon, continually retrieving impossible shots, and big Don Lutze, Varsity basketballer, who held up the offense with lighting spike shots, starred for the winning Kirklanders. Joll Kane and Buz Russell stood out in a good Dunstor lineup.

Eliot Downs Adams

In one of the heaviest hitting games of the summer softball schedule, a third-place Eliot team steam-rollered Adams, 17-3, sending the Gold-Coasters into a deadlock for the cellar. Also in yesterday's softball wars, the league-leading Lowell Bellboys slipped a notch nearer second-place Dunster when Winthrop trounced them, 12-4.

Kirkland, in the only touch football game of the day, edged out Leverett, 4-3, in a tilt that was closely contested and well played all the way.
