The Legion turned on the Elks to thump the league-leaders 12 to 6 as Dziadosz hung up his fifth pitching triumph against a single loss.

The Elks led, 2-1, going into the bottom of the second, but three Legion runs in the second and six in the third put them so far ahead that the Elks never again came close.

Don Gaselberti smashed out three hits for the Legion, while Dziadosz and Rich Hansen contributed two apiece. Each of the three had homers.
