BAILEY BUGLE. BAILEY. NORTH SCOPE CAROLINA. APRIL. 19^U Page 9 Pitcher Gains Two Victories "TakG Me Out To The Ball Game" and I'll be perfect ly happy seems to be the attitude of students now in trying to battle with this so-called "Spring Fe ver" that's going around school. I must confess that as soon as anyone mentions baseball to me all my cares and worries are for gotten long enough to ab sorb the great sport for a full hour or two. WINS—LOSSES Bailey started the open ing of this great season by defeating Rock Ridge 9 to 1, only to fall into the path of Coopers and get trodden on for a 13-2 loss. As Mr. Weaver has said, "Games of this na ture certainly show lack of thinking ability on the ' players' part," and I agree whole heartily. The game played against Spring Hope was nothing to rave about, even though it was a victory for Bailey with a U-3 score. Before Bailey can hope to win the County Champion ship in the play-off se ries, harder playing and more concentration will have to be put forth.
