Costumes Uniqne As Civic Clubs Battle In "Old Woman's" Encountei The Kings Mountain Kiwanis club and the Kings Mountain Lions club clashed in an "old women's" aofftballgame at City Stadium Mon day night, in what proveduio be] eon^e hilariou* entertainiient tor J the participants and spectators, and < which resulted in several charley j horses, sore necks, bruises and oth- j er minor ailments. The result of the game was rath- i er questionablei The Herald storekeeper tallied up 16 runs for each at the end of the regulation seven innings of play. But there was some divergence of opinion. The Kiwanians claimed thei victjory by 17-14, and the Lions, in) turn, claimed the victory by 18-17. There was some question as to whether these divergent claims were caused by club loyalty, or be cause neither aggregation feit phy Btoally able to continue an extra in ning of play. The clubs more or less agreed at the end of The fifth inning thai the score was a 13-13 tie, and the Ki wan>s outfit added four runs in the ?Kth. Determined to win the game, the Kiwanians placed a double quota of outfielders in the field dur ing the seventh. U"nable to' get ef fective cooperation from the urn- 1 pires, the Lions, not to be dismay- j ed, tallied their claimed four runs via certain questionable sneaks. At lea?n two Lions stealthily stole their ways to. a base and proceeded to cross home plate. The costumes of the participants ffhowed considerable planning and effort and no little ingenuity, though some suspected that the sev eral wives did some remote control ' work. Rarthex generally conceded ty be sporting the most unique costumes were Harold (Hula) Hunnicutt.w ho appeared in full hula skirl and the litthe bit else connected with the Hawaiian costume, and Carl (.Car loua) Mauney, who .appeared in a flaming red sun suij. Best stunt of the game was pulled hy Oscar Mc Carter, who, tripping on undergar ments, removed them in full view view, of the audience while resting on third base. Sam Stallings was credited "with being among the prettiest perform ers, sport' ng a rather vivid blonde wig. Charlie Mos* started on the mound for the Lions ?>ut took to the show ers under !>;i 11-run Kiwanis bar rage in the second inning. Charlie WarJick, dressed like a gypsy, fol lowed aiui pitched with a general degree of success. J. C. Bridges start ed tor the Kiwanians, with Amos Dean following. Harold Coggins, Bunny Abbott, Arnold Kiser, Drate Peeler and Bil ly Fulton lashed out several long hits for the Kiwanis entry, while J. W. Webster, Can Mauney, Jimmy Harris and Ertle Powers were heavy hitters for the Lions.
