Ecusta In Win Column
Ecusta’s W. N. C. Industrial baseball team broke
into the win column on Saturday, May 20th, by
defeating the Sylvia "Ploughboys” by a score of
5 to 3. Grover Suttles, making his initial appear
ance on the mound for the 1950 season, struck
out eleven men and gave up seven hits while
gaining his first victory of the season.
The team went on from there to win three of
the next five contests played through Tuesday,
June 13th. On Saturday, May 27th, Ecusta split
a double-header with Enka, winning the first
game by a score of 5 to 4 and losing the night
cap 2 to 3. Clint Morris scattered thirteen Enka
hits effectively and gained his first win of the

Bill Byrd pitched superb baseball and limited
the Rayonites to only three hits. Victory looked
