Account from The Rutherford Republican, 31-Jul-1952. Used by permission of Leader Newspapers, Inc.

Billy Hands and Frank Pollara combined to pitch Rotary to a 10-2 win over last-place Kiwanis last Friday which placed the long-time league leaders back into a first-place tie with JCC.

An eight-run rally in the second did the trick.

Kiwanis scored in the first on a walk, Jeep Porter’s single, the only Kiwanis hit of the game, and two more passes. Two errors and Hands’ single tied the count in the bottom of the frame, but Kiwanis made it 2-1 on three errors their next time up.

Four walks, Jack Kreiling’s single, Hands’ double and Bob Dionisio’s home run broke up the game in the bottom of the inning.
