Christians Win
Over Graham
T^’rank Roberts, Jack Andrews, and
Bill Anderson collaborated to hand
the Graham All-Stars a 5-1 defeat as
our Fighting Christians won their
third consecutive ball game of this
young season Monday, March 29, at
Graham.
Elon scored twice in the first inn
ing to sew up the ball game, but Coach
Mallory’s forces added a couple of
runs in the third and another in the
fourth for security measures. Graham
scored its lone tally in the third inn-
inp.
Worth Womble slapped the first
pitch of the ball game for a double.
Steve Walker followed with a walk,
and then after Ed Ellis grounded out
the slugging Gene Caviness shot a
long fly to centerfield to score Wom
ble, and Walker scored moments later
as Curtis uncorked a wild pitch. The
Fighting Christians countered two
more in the top half of the third as
Womble walked, Walker singled, and
Caviness drove a long single to bring
in both runners. Coach Mallory’s club
tallied again in the fifth inning when
Walker walked, stole second, and
raced in on Ellis's single.
Graham scored their lone tally in
(the fourth as Roberts hit Curtiss, Fra
zier singled, and Bevens singled, scor-

Nine^ 5-3
Our Fighting Christians made i1
two straight Friday, March 26, with a
5-3 win over the Randolph-Macon
Jackets at the College Park.
The Jackets, overloaded with talent
and power,, jumped on starter Jack
Andrews for two runs in the very
first inning on four well hit bingles
The losers made it 3-0 in their half
of the third with a lone tally on a
sharp single by Golubic, an infield
out, and an error, but the Fighting
Christians came back with tw'o runs
hi their half of the frame on walks
to Billy Matze and Ed Ellis, and i
long double by the slugging Gene
Caviness.
Coach Mallory’s crew sewed up the
contest in the next frame with three
runs on three hits and two walks.With
two out Len Fesmire batting for And
rews,, drew a base on balls, Matze
singled, and Steve Walker got a free
ticket to first, loading the sacks. Then
reliable Ed Ellis promptly shot a liner
down the left field line for a long
iouble, cleaning the sacks. This enc.eri
the scoring, as Art Fowler and r>il'
Davis collaborated to handcuff the
Jackets in the last five innings. And
rews, who worked the first four inn
ings and yielded the three runs, v'af
credited w'ith the victory.
Caviness, with a single and double
land Matze, with a single and triple
were the hitting stars for our Fight
ing. Christians, along with Thursi;
McSwain, who pounded out three
bingles.
Mad Scramble
In Intramurals
Intramural softball has developed
into what many fans had hoped for—
a well contested league with any one
of the ten teams likely to slip into
first place. The addition of the Veter
ans apartment nine has added great
interest and stabilized the league at
the same time. Right now ten teams
are swinging into rugged schedules of
188 games apiece. The clubs hot in
;pursuit of the flag are South-North,
South Dorm, Sigma Phi, Vets Court,
Vets Apartments, Oak Lodge,-Mooney
