Greetings, everybody, I’m back to tell you
what in the sports around Atlantic Christian
Our baseball team had a rough trip the last of
^ Not only did Catawba and Lenoir Rhyne
the Bulldogs’ but the weather had to be cold
j raining most of the time. By the way, the 1-0
S to Catawba is nothing to be ashamed of and
IL" Lassiter deserves a lot of credit for doing
3 flne job of pitching on such a cold day. His
^hitter was good enough to win practically
game. Too bad he had to slip up and throw
J home run ball to Lisk.
Pete Bryant is having an awful time of it late-
t4ie has lost his control and is doing everything
^rrect it. My guess is that he’ll find it in his
^game. When he starts pitching as he did last
-Biner there won’t be many teams that will beat
Jim. The 25-4 slaughter handed out by the Bull-
jop to Fort Bragg is just about the worst beating
C. team has ever handed out in all its history.
Ijtiing averages were fattened that day. Among
liose who benefitted was Vince Colombo with “4
ftirf. The team has been in sort of a slump lately,
lie pitching hasn’t been what it was cracked up to
ieand the hitters don’t seen to be able to get their
lye on the ball. The only player really hitting the
liihard is Ed Smith.
ACC played E. C. T C. last week and walked
iway with an 11-6 victory leaving Bohunkus still
(afeiy in our hands. That makes three beatings we
kave handed the Pirates this year. W play them
iree more times in baseball and it seems as if Bo-
linkus will remain here for quite a while. I predict
t we won’t lose a single game to the Pirates the
Kt of the year. In the event we defeat them the
next three games, it will be the first time in A. C.
iistory that A. C. C. has kept Bohunkus all year
long without having to give it up.

I The women have been rather busy in the ath
letic world this past month; of course, it’s the
latural thing, ’cause in the spring a young wo
man’s fancy naturally turns to athletics. If you
(ion’t believe it just gaze upon the campus almost
ay time (even during classes) and you’ll see the
women trying to compete with Robin Hood. It
looks as if a number of girls are very much interest
ed in archery. Quite a few are just learning, but it
won’t be long until they will be as good as the well
blown experts. Archery is really a wonderful
?ort, and I’ll wager to say it won’t be so long be
fore it will be as popular as tennis, softball, etc.
Softball, voted on as a favorite sport on the
ompus, is now being played in the physical educa
tion classes. The girls are really getting practice
in their favorite position so they will be in proper
wndition for the class tournament. The tourna-
®fnt date hasn’t been announced, yet, but the girls
it can’t be far off. The A. B. freshmen as well
ssthe commercial will probably give the upper-class
’lot of competition.
In shuffleboard and badminton, tournaments
^already being played. You should see some of
girls sliding those disks around—they aren’t
^ either. It’s hard to predict who will be the
*®ner of these tournaments because people don’t
®?age in these sports as much as in the major ones.

The Atlantic Christian Bull
dogs took their first and last
baseball trip of the '42 baseball
season the last week of March
The weather was either cold or
raining and it was more fit for
football than baseball.
The first stop was at Cataw
ba to take on the Indians. The
Bulldogs made their finest
performance of the trip in this
game. They played errorless
ball throughout the game,
showed plenty of hustle, and
"Pro” Lassiter was in top
form. Lassiter pitched a
beautiful game except for one
pitch—a home run pitch to
Lisk, which lost him the ball
game, 1^0. Lisk was the In
dian pitcher and he set the
Bulldogs down without a hi*
or run. He got two of the
four hits allowed by Lassiter
and he was the winning pitcher.
The next day the Bulldogs
traveled to Hickory to tangle
with the Lenoir Rhyne Bears.
It was a cold, windy, rainy
day, hardly fit for baseball,
and the Bulldogs weren't used
to the cold weather. It was
just natural that they couldn't
play as well as they had the
day before. Their hustle was
gone, and it was too cold to
feel like playing ball.
The Bears quickly took mat
ters into their own hands and
scored three runs in the first
inning and two in the second
to make the score 5-0. A. C.
came back in their half to
score their first run when
Godwin reached on an error,
stole second and scored on
Colombo’s single. Because of
the cold and increasing rain
the game was called at the end
of the secenth inning with the

Good News At All
Boys Show Plenty
Of Team Spirit
From the scoreboard we dis
cover that our tennis team has
lost all its matches up to date
but has fought bravely in do
ing so. From the angle of
sportsmanship, spirit, and co
operation they must be com
mended for their achievements.
The boys dropped their first
meet to Cataw'ba by the scorc
of 7-0, This was quite a set
back to the hoys, but they
fought hard and several of the
matches all but went in favor of
ihe A. C. C. boys.
The next meet was dropped
to Lenoir Rhyne also by the
score of 7-0, and the boyi
fought equally hard but were
finally overcome.
Their next and last match
was dropped to Elon College
by the score of 6-1. Throughout
the meet the Elon netters had
to work hard and it looked as
if they were going to lose sev
oral times. Corbett finally de
feated his opponent to win the
only match.
On Friday of this week the
A. C. C. netters go on the roaJ
to E C. T. C. where they are
expecting to take their first vic
tory. The boys might do this
too, because they are primed
and expect to come back from
their defeats.
Bears out in front 8-3. The
Bears got eleven hits and the
Bulldogs got three. Colombo
got two of them and Hicks got
the other one. Edgar Thomas
and Lyman Grjj; did the pitch
ing for A. C. and did a fine job
under the unfavorable condi
tions. The doubleheader at
Elon the following day wai
called off because of cold
weather and wet grounds.
Catawba Is
Winner
Aided by numerous errors
<nd two home runs by pitcher
Lefty' Lisk, the Indians of
Catawba College splurged to a*
11-8 decision over A C. C last
Wednesday at the .Hunicipai
Stadium. |
The game opened with Oi-
tawba's making three runs in
the first inning, having been
aided by four errors. In the
latter half of the inning the
Bulldogs of A C. C. made one
run and this was their last un
til the final half of the seventh.
After this first inning Catawba
scored in every frame except
the 6th, 7th, and 9th. The
Bulldogs, rebounding from
several practically hitless in
nings, turned on the steam and
scored four runs in the 7th in
ning and laid down such a bar
rage of hits that Lisk. the
starting pitcher had to retire
The Bulldogs scored twico
again in the eighth and once
in the ninth to bring their to
tal to eight runs, which was
not enough to provide a mar
gin of victory. Each team col
lected around nine hits- The
game was marred by numerous
errors on the part of the Bull
dogs and these errors provided
the margin of victory for the
Indians who were alert at al'.
times and took advantage of
all situations. |
The boys have not played a
home game yet but when they
do each and every one should
be out there backing the boy* |
U'e have a good team and we
know it. Vl’e have played some

bad luck but this cannot last

I the boys to win.
