Our Fighting Christians made it
two straight Friday, March 26, with a
5-3 win over the Randolph-Macon
Jackets at the College Park.
The Jackets, overloaded with talent
and power,, jumped on starter Jack
Andrews for two runs in the very
first inning on four well hit bingles
The losers made it 3-0 in their half
of the third with a lone tally on a
sharp single by Golubic, an infield
out, and an error, but the Fightin?
Christians came back with tw'o runs
in their half of the frame on walks
to Billy Matze and Ed Ellis, and i
long double by the slugging Gene
Caviness.
Coach Mallory’s crew sewed up the
contest in the next frame with three
runs on three hits and two walks.With
two out Len Fesraire batting for And
rews,, drew a base on balls, Matze
singled, and Steve Walker got a free
ticket to first, loading the sacks. Then
reliable Ed Ellis promptly shot a liner
down the left field line for a long
double, cleaning the sacks. This enred
the scoring, as Art Fowler and Dil'
Davis collaborated to handcuff the
Jackets in the last five innings. And
rews, who worked the first four inn
ings and yielded the three runs, v'af
credited with the victory.
Caviness, with a single and double
land Matze, with a single and triple
were the hitting stars for our Fight
ing, Christians, along with Thursi;
McSwain, who pounded out thi-ee
bingles.
Mod Scramble
In Intramurals
Intramural softball has developed
into what many fans had hoped for—
a well contested league with any one
of the ten teams likely to slip into
first place. The addition of the Veter
ans apartment nine has added great
interest and stabilized the league at
the same time. Right now ten teams
are swinging into rugged schedules of
188 games apiece. The clubs hot in
pursuit of the flag are South-North,
South Dorm, Sigma Phi, Vets Court,
Vets Apartments, Oak Lodge,-Mooney
