By HANK MESSICK
ANYONE want to argue that Bob Feller isn't being the
decisive factor in the American League Race? Tuesday night
he won his 20th victory of the season, giving only six hits as
he licked the Washington Senators 6-0. That victory keeps the
Cleveland Indians a full game ahead of the Yanks. '.'
SIX times now has Feller won 20 or more games'in a sea
son, and only five more pitchers in history have done better.
Give Bob a few more years and he may be supreme.

Wellco Drops
From Soft
Ball Tourney
Wellco Shoe was eliminated from
the SJate Softball Tournament at
Canton yesterday, but Champion Y
remained in the running as one of
two undefeated teams. .
Two losses eliminate a team.
Wellco Shoe lost a heartbreaker to
Rocky Mount on opening day, and
yesterday was defeated by Kan
napolis Y by a wider margin. Well
co managed to obtain only one hit,
Champion Y now goes into the
finals on the strength of a four
hitter pitched by Nazi Miller which
licked Burtner's of Greensboro 7
2. Canton's big inning was the
fourth, for then they scored four
runs on a series of . singles by
George Price, Red lvester, Dee
Stevenson, and Nazi Miller. A cou
ple of errors spurred the rally
along.
Crrampion Mill was also elimin
ated, but on Tuesday. "A 13 inning
test of endurance ended in favor
of the Shelby Woodmen, 3-2.
The only surviving Haywood
Uounty team, Champion Y, goes
against Rocky Mount tonight at 8
p.m. Two, other games are also
scheduled, the first one at 7 p.m.
ELSEWHERE on this pape, there's a story about the New
Hanover team from Wilmington up to thess hills to do their
rough work in comparative cool weather. We don't -want to
sound inhospitable, buf that hjtle item points a moral. Once
upon a time sports waited for school to start. The idea was to
give the students something worthwhile to do in their spare
time. Gradually, however, under the pressure to win, things
have reversed themselves. Kqw, jn many cases, school waits
for the team to get reacjy. .
IS IT right that workouts should start in the middle of
August? Why is it so important; so important that teams can
travel hundreds of miles to spend, cliys pr weeks working out
in a cooler climate? How Ran you blme anyone but yourself?
The high school teams do it for the same reasQn college teams
do it, and the higri school player is encouraged by the fact
that if he does well on the team he may find an opening wait
ing on a college team- Once again I ask, why is it so important?
You expect a professional team to do any thing. to be in shape,
but WHY is it so important to AMATEURS?
DON'T mean to sound excited about the subject, but in
line with the above is what we read in the papers about all
the expelled cadets being offered all-expense scholarships at
Notre Dame', The only catch is the condition they DO NOT
play any varsity athletics. If they're really interested in get
ting an education, here's a wonderful chance. Wonder how
many will take advantage of it? '; x

To Be Named
At Bethel
Football at Bethel High School
is a bit disorganized at present due
largely to the fact that Jack Arring
ton, last years coach, has resigned
to accept a position with the state
Highway Patrol in Chapel Hill.
The principal, however, E. J,
Evans, expects to announce the ap
pointment of a new coach sometime
this weekend. Several men are un
der consediration, he said, and a
good one will be selected.
The players are not waiting for
their new coach. Already a number
are working out, and also, on their
own putting the field In condition.
Due to the confusion it is impossi
ble to know much about the squad,
but Mr. Evans pointed out that 24
players reported for spring prac
tice, of which 12 were lettermen.
. No definite schedule has been
arranged as yet. According to
Evans only three games ; are cer
tain, and even there the dates have
not been set. Biitmore will he
played at Biitmore, and Candler
and Asheville School are scheduled
as home games. AH three were
sfgned. lust year - under two year
contracts.
The Bethel team expects to play
Canton and the Waynesville junior
varsity. Two games are expected
with Clyde. They hope to tackle
Sand Hill sometime In the season,
and also hope to find someone else
to play.
'Despite the present disorganiza
tion," said Mr. Evans, "Bethel will
be in there fighting."

Coach Leon Brodgon with 36
players, coaches and trainers, Irom
New Hanover High School in Wil

Hemlock on the Soco Gap road for
ten days of intensive football prac
tice... .""...' . " :.'":-' -';'
Practice has been underway (or
more than a week, reported Brod
gon, but a cooler climate was need
ed for the heavy work. This is the
first time the team has gone travel
ing to find a suitable place., but,
said the coach, the Great Smokies
were a logical choice. , "
New Hanover High is a Triple A
team, ranking along with such high
school giants as Charlotte : and
Greensboro. Workouts will be
largely conducted at Camp Hem
lock, but Brodgon is attempting to
arrange an exhibition game .with ,
one or more local teams.
Anyone desiring to see a hot
team attempting to get hotter in a
cooler climate should drop by Camp

HE BIG golf tourney here at the Country Club is arous
ing a lot of interest, and rightly so. Big name amateurs, a
course designed to bring out their best, scenery and climate
that is world famous: What more do you want?
WELLCO Shoe didn't last long in the softball tourney
at Canton, but they've surely got nothing to apologize about.
Johnny Phillips gave up only two hits and allowed only one
run to score. In 99 games out of 100 that would have meant a
victory, but the Wellco lads happened to hit that 100th game.
Tough luck is no word for it.

CHAMPION Mill also had rough luck. It took the Shelby
Woodmen of the World 13 innings to edge them out, 3-2. The
Mill boys are ready to agree that 13 is an unlucky number.

thought Casey was playing on the Mudville nine, but this
