from Siler City, to open the two
game series against Western Caro
lina.
The Quakers jumped to a quick
three-run lead in the first and John
son was walked, Parker singled and I
Cann reached first on an error to I
load the bases. Cook then singled
in two runs. Foltz and Hampton,
next walked to force in another run. i
This was all that was needed for i
as the game progressed it became
apparent that Pitcher Buckner was j
to be the master. He scattered six |
hits and struck out nine batters to
shut out the West Carolinians. It
was the third time in a row that
Buck lias gone the distance.

Bandy Parks got the nod from
Coach Mavnard to pitch in the final
game of the Western Carolina se
ries. A win here would have put
the Quakers in the Conference
Tournament.
Danny Tharpe (of Western Car
olina Basketball fame) added a
single and a home run to three oth
er Western hits to move them to a
quick four-run lead in the first two
innings. After this early outburst
Lefty Parks settled down to pitch
seven innings of rimless ball.

The Quakers fought hack dog
gedly with one run rallies in the
second, fourth and fifth innings.
The Quakers were down one

With two out Lee ]ohnson deliver
ed a clutch single to tie the score
and send the game into extra in
nings.
In the West Carolina tenth Will
Parker singled Tharpe home with
what soon proved to he the win
ning run.
Pitcher Parks had pitched well
for tlu' first nine innings hut the
Guilford hatters could not help
him. By the game's end they had
left over fifteen runners on base.
This game was the turning point
in Guilford's tournament hopes.
The loss necessitated a playoff with
High Point for fourth place.

Wednesday, May 8
Kendall Buckner, with one day's
lest, was selected to go against
High Point at 11 it* Panthers' home
field.
From the outset it was apparent
that this was not the Quakers' day.
Pitcher Buckner, still recovering
from the Monday game, was not
his usual self as he gave up five
runs.
Guilford managed to score only
once in the first inning when El
wood Parker reached first on an
error and Mickey Faulk singled
him in.
As a result High Point went to
Lexington while Guilford took fifth
place in the Garolinas Conference.
