BASCOES STILL LEAD WAY IN INDUSTRIAL LEAGUE
TRIPLE R AND PATTERSON
aSHOW IMPROVEMENT
“—DEEP SLEEPS SLIDE
Fourth of July is the time for fire
works and ball games and last Fri
day was no exception. The Patterson
Mill Silver Kings and the league
leading Rosemary Bascoes started out
with the first game of the scheduled
double header. Crowder, ace of the
Patterson squad started for them,
while “Husky” Johnson went to the
mound for the Bascoes.
Crowder lasted five innings, finally
going out and Love replacing him.
Johnson pitched steady ball for the
full route and hung up his second vic
tory in two starts. Finch, Alligood
and Matthews led the Bascoes hitting,
while Jones was the big flare for the
Kings. The final score was 7 to 1,
with Patterson getting their only
tcore by the way of an error.
The second game was between the
Heepsleeps and the Triple R’s and the
odds were all in favor of the down
towners. Carroll started for the
Peepsleeps but was not effective and
the town team was hitting him all
along the way. The pitching of Jim
mie Edmondson was the outstanding
thing about the town team’s play.
' He held the Deepsleeps to two lone
^Ungles while his team mates pounded
out enough hits from Carroll’s de
livery to put the game cm ice. The
final score was 2 to 1. It was a fast,
well played game. The two Shearin
1 oys, Mitchell and Joe were the bat
ting stars of the game. Edmondson, i
town team catcher stood out, in all '
icund play.
The regular Saturday double head
er was between Patterson Mill and
Roanoke for the first gome and Rose

mary and the Triple R’s in the night
cap. Crowder was not satisfied with
the way Rosemary treated him the
Fourth, so he came back and started
to setting the Deepsleeps on their
1 eads with some fancy pitching. Fra
zier pitched for the Roanokers and
the Patterson Mill boys handled him
rough, hitting about everything he
throwed in to them. Only some fancy
fielding by left fielder Hux held the
score down. He made one of the best
catches seen in these parts in a long
while when he came in fast on a loop
ing Texas Leaguer in the fourth and
made a circus catch. The Roanokers
were minus the services of center
fielder Pearce, who was out with a
bad hand. The final score was 3 to 1
and shoved the Roanoke bunch in the
cellar.
The last game was between the
Rosemary Bascoes and the Triple R’s.
And what a game. The Bascoes were
on the small end of a one to nothing
score up until the sixth inning. The
Triple R’s scored in the first stanza
when Edmondson tripled to right cen
ter and continued on in home when
Matthews threw wild to Lowder at
third. From then on it was nip and
tuck, the Bascoes getting three on in
the fifth with none out but the town
team tightened up and it was still
one and nothing. In the sixth Ryals
singled, Gotland hit a long fly to left
that was fumbled by Smith and then
Finch came up. He immediately hit
one of the longest balls seen in these
parts in many a day. It bounced some
where out in deep center and Outland
and Ryals scored. When the smoke*
bad cleared away the Bascoes had the
game 5 to 1. Birdsong pitched almost
shut-out ball all the way to hang up
his fourth victory of the season.
I* inch, Edmondson and Alligood led
the Bascoes attack, while Jimmie Ed
mondson led the towners. B. Ed
mondson caught a fine game for the
town team.

Greetings to Prospec
tive Students by Pres
ident Chowan College
I take this opportunity to comrv;:ia
late all students who were gradu;1
from high school during thj past
commencement season.
This is the first milestone y->u have
reached on your educational highway.
I hope and trust that it may be a sign
board as well as pointing you to
higher training in the collegiate
world. Do not allow it to be a detour
sign; but be persistent and travel
straight ahead on the educational
highway.
We Chowanians are very anxious
for you to he pointed this way and to
Chowan college, for we believe we
have exactly the place for which both
mother and daughter are looking.
This is a time of financial depress
ion and of necessity, retrenchments:
We believe we have the solution to the
problem of sending daughters to col
it ge—namely the low cost for which
we can train students: our prices arc
irom $150 to $200 cheaper than other
institutions of similar type. We give
you exactly the same training as I
said, at a much lower cost. We are
able to do this for we are not located
in a city, which is advantageous, and
because we operate a small farm from
v hich we serve our own fresh vege
tables and fresh milk.
Why go elsewhere when you can
get the same training at home and
at a much lower cost?
Allow me to call your attention to
two other features of our college—
namely, business courses in typing,
shorthand, bookkeeping, spelling and
penmanship.
We meet the State requirements of
all class “A” certificates. We offer
courses in public school art, students
that plan to teach have a splendid
opportunity to do observation and
practice teaching in the local pub
lic school through an agreement with
both local and county educators.
Another feature of our college is
the splendid training in the homo eco
nomies field. We are expecting to
make a greater feature of this field
in the future than heretofore.
We are changing our B. S. Degree
into a B. S. in Home Economics De
gree. This will of necessity alter the
courses and subjects leading to that
degree.
We shall be glad to answer any in
quiry or send catalog to anyone in
terested.
I Wishing each of you a happy va
cation, I am,
Sincerely,
W. B. Edwards,
President Chowan College

Jay Bird Eats Snake
Near Brinkleyville
If a snake* eats a birl, that is not
lews. But when a jn\ b’.id is seen
vating a snake that tails in the cate
gory of news. That happened recently
near Brinkleyville, acc ..\ing t) a let
ter from Thomas K. Street, 15 year
old son of Mrs. I.. ]:. street, of T’n
fu Id, Route ^ oung Street relates.
“One mor.dng as i was walking
through th0 i.ont grow*. I saw a ja
Iird on the ground pecki'-g furiously.
As I drew n.Mter, he fl *w t:p n.t*. a
tree, something long trailuig out b* -
hind him. The bird lit on a low limb
and began again to peer. In a mo
ment I saw the bird had a green snake
about two feet hung over ihe l*;,.b
The snake was too far gone to rai u*
its head to the limb but it wiggled itz
tail violently.
“When I last saw him, th3 binT
had consumed most of the reptile.
Such things may have occurred be
fore, but I have never heard of a si
miliar case.

BETTER TASTE — that's the answer; and

Better taste, and milder too!
