JULY 15, 1952 – “Maurice Chasse pitched a no-hit, no-run game as Ward Three defeated Ward Two, 9-0, in a Ward League game at the North Common last night.

“Chasse had complete mastery over the the Ward Two team.”

JULY 16, 1962 – “While the Hudson Junior Legion baseball team was notching its third win of the season at the expense of Exeter, 7-4, Coffey Post was having its troubles against the strong Sweeney Posters of Manchester yesterday and dropped a wafer thin 5-4 decision.

“At Manchester, Nashua rallied late to come up with three runs in the eighth inning and fell one run short of overcoming the district leaders. Dan Peacock switched from the infield to the mound and performed brilliantly in allowing only seven Sweeney hits, but costly errors proved to be Nashua’s downfall.

“The game’s bright spot was Moe Paquette’s two-run homer in the eighth inning.

“… At Alvirne Memorial Field, Hudson Post staged an 11-hit barrage for seven runs. Lee Morrill, Gary Gendron and Bob Coulter all had two hits apiece.”

JULY 17, 1967 – “Mike Tamulevich and Jake Crosby teamed up to score a gross 65 to win the Four Ball Tournament held at Nashua Country Club over the weekend.

“Low net went to Jake Crosby and Paul Moriarty, both in with a 58 card. At 59 were Leo Bonnette and Norm Nadeau, and Dave Pope and Tom Leonard.”

JULY 19, 1977 – “Dave Dion of Hudson, a man fast establishing himself as the Northeast’s top NASCAR Late Model stock car driver, will attempt to hold off an international array of racing machinery from nine states and Canada on Thursday night at Thunder Road International Speedbowl in the Vermont Bicentennial 200.

“Dion scored a spectacular half-lap victory in the inaugural running of the 200-lap, $12,000 National Championship race in 1976 over a field of cars that included five of the nation’s top 10 drivers.”

JULY 20, 1982 – “Bishop Guertin’s standout center Skip Barry pumped in 23 points last night to pace the New Hampshire AAU Basketball Club to a stunning 58-51 win over Colorado in the National Under-17 AAU Basketball Tournament in Monroe, La.

“Barry led the New Hampshire contingent in a 22-8 third-period surge that brought them from a 233-30 halftime deficit to a 55-38 lead in the final minutes.”

JULY 21, 1992 – “The Nashua Junior girls 12-and-under District I All Stars advanced to next weekend’s state tournament with a 14-13 win over Kearsarge in the district championship game.
