Opening day Pasquin scored four runs in the first inning and two in the fifth to defeat the Lions 6-0 in the American League. Mike Latorraca did a fine job of pitching for Pasquin, setting the Lions down with one hit, Allen Brundage catching. Greg Reulbach pitched for the Lions, Dave DeJoia catching.

It was reported last week that Pasquin had won over the Lions in the Rutherford Little League. Perish the thought! The Lions won. The Lions won. Roar, Lions, roar.

The man who gave the misinformation to the South Bergen News is wearing sackcloth and ashes, and goes about apologizing profusely to fans, boosters, parents, and even buttonholing strangers on the street to explain his booboo and to cry on any willing shoulders. The Lions won, a victory made sweet by previous losses. They are now above Pasquin in the American League standings.
