The Cubans proved their mastery Monday night by knocking down the second-place Tampa Smokers, 5-1, in the first of a crucial three-game series. The win increased their margin to three full games over the Smokers and nine ahead of the third-place Miami Beach Flamingos. Havana has lost only two games this month, one on May 2 at Fort Lauderdale where Lefty Covington allowed only two hits for a 3-0 shutout, and the other at Miami on May 10 when Mickey Mihalik beat them on four hits, 3-1.

A crowd of 3400 braved threatening weather to see Sandaho Consuegra scatter nine hits and strike out eight Smoker batters. Ray Woodward and Oscar Del Calvo allowed eight hits, most of them coming at the right time. West Palm Beach climbed into a fifth-place tie with the Lakeland Pilots by trouncing Miami Beach, 7-3.

Zig Emery led the Indians' nine-hit attack with four hits in five trips, drove in three runs and scored twice.

Charlie Rot-zell hit a double and three singles in five tries for the Flamingos. Only 553 saw the game at Miami Beach. John Robinson, making his debut with the Fort Lauderdale Braves, wild pitched John Legros home with the winning run as Miami shaded the Broward County nine, 4-3. Mickey Hihalik and Art Seijas gave up only four hits, one of them Ed Bass' third homer of the season with two men on in the fourth. The blast cleared the right field wall 330 feet away and tied the score.

Don Spyker allowed the Pilots only five hits at Lakeland and the Saints rapped Mel Nee for 13. A four-run exDlosion in the ninth broke a 4-4 tie and handed the Pilots their seventh loss in a row. Three hits in the first and two in the third accounted for all the Pilots' damage.

Butler and Walter Sherertz, former wildlife officer, reporting on the plight of the fish, suggested at first that the comparative trickle of a water supply from Lake Letta to the pools be increased by pumping.

That suggestion was discarded, because of the cost and time involved, in favor of placing the fish in the lakes.
