Fireman Red Swain, whose name
is becoming a fixture in the box
scores, rescued ole Slim Gardner
last night in Tarboro to insure the
Martins' fourth consecutive victory,
with a 5-3 triumph over the sec
ond place Cubs. Though the Martins
made but five hits while the Cubs
were litest n?t eight, stingy hurling
in tbe pinches deprived Tarboro of
the victory
The Martins scored three runs in
the first frame and udded two more
in the fifth for an insurmountable
advantage However, the Cubs
threw a scare into Local hearts by
racking up a singleton in the sixth
stanza and reaching Slim for two
Welti with none away in the eighth,
but old reliable Red was just tbe
key to the situation Hits by Don
ner and Mctebki sent in a pair of
runs and Manager Wes Ratterree
filed out to retire the side. Mincey
singled in the ninth but Swain
steadied to fan Srhenz and Justice
and maintain his victorv margin
Though no Martin made over one |
hit, Newman. with a Ruthian wal
lop, and Rock, each batted in two I
runs. Four Tarboro players divided |
the Cubs' eight bingles.
Snow Hill, New Bern and Tarboro
were turned back in order as Man
ger Red Swain figured prominently
on the mound and at bat where he
asserted unusual power to make a
clean sweep of the week-end bills
for the Martina.
The series of victories, while leav-1
ing the Martina alill in the cellar po
sition. are having a telling effect on
the percentage figures, and hold out
hope for post-seaaon activities in
this covmu ai the '""fw.

the battle, the first game of a)

the same two teams. Ham Price,

The Christians moved to an early
advantage as George Roberson's tri
ple, and singles by Vernon Bunting
and Jack Manning, mixed with an
error, produced two initial inning
tallies They increased their lead
two-fold in the third stanza when
hits by G. Roberson, C. Roberson and
Manning made the third stanza a du
plicate of the first.
However, the Episcopalians prov
ed to be down but net out. For they
broke the ice in the fifth tor a sin

count in the sixth on a single base
blow Mack Simpson singled to
commence the proceedings and Ham

damage
Then the Christians roared back
to sew up the game in the sixth
when consecutive singles by C Rob
erson. Barnhill, J. Manning and
Goff were good for two runs. Two
more runs in the eighth provided
nothing more than a little extra
added security to the seemingly
tiring Price.
Jack Manning, w of last year's
batting leaders who is finally hitting
his stride, led the victors with three
hits for a perfect record. His coun
terparts for the losers were Manager

Cirtcher, who each had two bin

The hot weather is chasing some
of the stars out of the game, but for
the most part, they are sticking in
there and taking the heat as it comes.

Manager Red Swain, the loop's
premier money player, cashed in
again for the Martins Sunday after
noon. Aided by heavy rain, the
Coastal Plain's Sunday curfew, ex
ceptional pitching and his own dev
astating clutch hitting, the old side
wheeler eked out a 3-2 decision for
his eighth successive victory and his
tenth win of the season.
Limiting the usually potent Bears
to seven scattered hits and whif
fing three. Swain blasted a terrific
seventh ining homer over the score
board in centerfield to unlock a 2-2
deadlock and account for his own
victory. His opponents, lanky Jim
Hammonds and Wattigney. were
reached for eight hits before the
Sunday curfew halted hostilities in
the eighth.
Ttie Bears made all their runs in
the third when Lokey homered with
Catcher Helleckson aboard. Over the

Injuries and I
Concern in A
Manager Red Swain acknow lodg
ed early yesterday that he had been
attempting for some time to con
tact Hack "Brother" Gaylord as a
relief measure for his beleaguered
Williamston Martins. The James
ville boy, a former Martin, will be
remembered by local fans as a classy
fielder, hitter and baserunner in the
days when Jimmy Brown was per
forming with the Martins, and is
now connected with the health de
partment in Windsor
Beset by injuries, the Martins have
been presenting a pitchwork line
up for the past few games, but are
still winning games. This is due in
part to the stellar work of several
transplanted Martins at positions at
which they are highly unaccustom
ed. Bert Stotler has been recuper
ating from an ankle injury sustained
in New Bern and speedy Chuck Tay
lor is out of action for an indefinite
spell with pus on the kidneys

Saturday evening in New Bern.
Bertie Ted Miller twirled seven-hit
ball in besting "Bullpen" Berry and
his mates 5-4 in a bitterly contested
pitcher's duel. Berry's delivery was
solved for nine Martin blows and
surprisingly enough the ratio of
hits allowed was reversed in strike
outs, Miller whiffing nine men while
Berry was retiring seven via the
strike-out route.
The Bears drew first blood in the
initial inning by shoving over a
singleton'. But the Martins retaliat
ed with a 3-run uprising in the
fourth. A1 Slakis commenced by
blasting out a double and Rock then
worked Berry for a base on balls
Both base runners tallied on Man
ager Swain's timely double with the
latter completing the circuit a bit
later on Cloninger's single. Another

Replacing these two mainstays

While Marcel and all the others

I the crippled Martins would be ma

Though weakened by injury, the

Directors Hold
Financial Confab
Plan All-Star Guhi- To Pull
l.<-apur Finmiro Out of
The "Hole"
?
Meeting in executive session in
an automobile some where on the
streets of Wilhamston, members of
the city softball circuit board of di
rectors and the league president dis
cussed several matters relating to
the league's policy. Of first consid
eration was tlie financial question
wh*eh had reached rather alarming
proportions.
The church loop w as $7 32 m ar
rears for a sc?? re book, u softball
mask, three softbulls and two soft
ball bats. It was agreyd that the
four clubs would, each raise $2.50 in
order to pay the old bills, with the
remainder to be put in the treasury
In be used for new equipment
Each manager is responsible for
raising the funds for his club so
don't be surprised if someone col
lars you and asks a slight donation
to help pay for all this free softball
we've been getting.
Actum was then taken on an old
and aggravating problem. Five play
ers to be chosen at large were add
ed to the Episcopalian roster. Short
handed all season the tailenders have
often played without a sufficient
number and the measure is regard
ed in all quarters as a good idea
Slated to improve the Episcopalians,
the newcomers thus far an* only
Haywood Wynne and Sonny Wynne
have been named by Manager Simp
son, should go a long way toward
making the league race more stable
and interesting
Preliminary plans were agreed
upon to hold an AlbStar game which
