House Blanks Leafs, 1-0;
Blues SmotherLumberton
Sanford’s Jim House pushed the Spinners back up to 12
games above the maddening crowd at Smithfield yesterday,
besting John Zaykoski in a 1-0 hurling duel. Continuing
their streak of not having lost a game since Severn Wright
took over as playing manager last Tuesday, the rejuvenated
Clinton Blues pasted Lumberton’s
second-place Cubs, 6-1, with Wright
taking the mound himself for his
13th win of the year.
After a long drouth. Red Springs
finally broke one of their many
losing spells by jumping on their
favorite dis, the Wilmington Pi
rates, in both games of a double
header. They won the first 5-4,
and clubbed three Pirate hurlers in
an 8-5 victory in the nightcap.
With Carl McQuillen and Sham
rock Denning both running four
markers across the plate, Dunn
Erwin had little trouble in lashing
Warsaw, 16-4 in the Red Sox’ own
back yard.
Bob Holiday, Sanford outfielder,
scored the only and winning run
of the Spinner-Leaf fray when he
forced Shoffner at second after the
latter had singled, went to third
on Bruce Hedrick’s base-hit, and
tripped in with the run when Bob
by Keane hit to the right of the
mound, pulling Zaykoski out of po
sition to throw home.
Shoffner got three of Sanford’s
nine hits, and Dick Woodard,
Smithfield cleanup man who had
nothing to clean up, nevertheless
contributed two of the Leaf’s five
hits. While striking out only four,
House issued only two walks to
Zaykoski’s three. The Leaf hurler
fanned only one Spinner.
While chalking up his 13th win
against only four defeats, Wright,
who had acted as manager twice
before for Clinton this year, scat
tered eight Lumberton hits. The
newly-appointed mentor also rap
ped out a single and a double
and scored twice himself during
the game. Altogether, the Blues
hit safely 13 times off Osgood, the
losing pitcher, and Dalton.
After tying up the game with
one run each in the initial inning,
the two teams battled s~crelessly
until the last of the fifth when
Clinton pounded Osgood for two
markers. Wright scored the de
cisive tally himself. After he had
singled, Marsh doubled him in
home, and Ed Kukulka pushed
Marsh across with another two.
sacker.
Warsaw’s mound staff, infield,
and batting order all fell apart in
front of thd home fans yesterday,
as Dunn-Erwin scored 16 runs
before the Sox could push over
four in the late innings. While
the Twins were pounding loser
Dick Whitmire, Ensley and ’3ird
for 12 hits, L. T. Jones was mak
ing four miscues behind the plate,
Ed McArty hobbled twice at third,
and Ford Jordan scrambled one
at shortstop, a total of eight er
rors.
Frank Vinajereas, taking his
sixth win for the Twins, fanned
seven Sox, walked only three and
pitched a pretty fancy ball game.
The Warsaw hurlers issued ten
bases on balls. Dunn-Erwin had
only 11 men left on base for the
entire game. Carl McQuillen hom
ered in the fifth with twu on for
the Twins, and drove in- another
run in the fourth with a single.
Shamrock Denning also blasted
in a quartet of tallies, popping
four singles in six tries.
Red Stephens was the only shin
ing light for Warsaw, producing a
single tally in the eighth with an
empty-bases circuit clout. The
Sox pulled three more markers
out of their battered hats in o
ninth in a futile effort to make it
look like a contest. They seem to
have been unsuccessful.
Edwards Stops Hampstead
As Pepsi, Rangers Win
Allowing only three Hampstead players to reach third
base, Masonboro’s Bobby Edwards blanked the Cape Fear
pace-setters, 3-0, on five hits yesterday afternoon in the
feature game of the local semi-pro loop played at Mason

Stadium Tonight
Special To The Star
RED SPRINGS, July 13 — Wilmington’s hapless Pirates
resumed their losing ways again today after dividing a
doubleheader with the Warsaw Red Sox on Saturday, drop
ping both sides of a twin bill to the lowly Red Springs
Robins, 5-4 and 8-5. The two defeats gave Wilmington.
wmcn is now clinging to third
place In the Tobacco State league,
a record of three wins in their last
15 games.
Monday night at 7:45 o’clock the
Pirates play the final tilt of their
three-game series with Red Springs
at Legion Stadium. Nate Andrews,
who hasn’t taken the mound in
almost a week,, is expected to
pitch. Andrew’s record is four wins
and two losses.
Emory Hewlett lost his ninth
tussle against two triumphs in the
first game today blowing a four
run lead. Tom Clayton, Red
Springs center fielder, basted a
three-run homer in the third inning
for three of the four tallies of the
stanza. Joe Mangina singled in the
other.
Billy Benton proved the big man
in obtaining Hewlett his 4-0 lead.
The lanky center fielder who was
given the old heave-ho Saturday,
boomed a triple with Emory Hew
lett and Ed Hardisky on base. Har
ry Bridges doubled Benton home
after Bob LaBlanc had been re
tired. Andy Poklemba hammered
Bridges across the platter.
The Robins scored the deciding
marker in the fifth frame with
Wolfe doubling and Mangini sock
ing a two-bagger, driving him in.
Buc Pilot Andrews gave A1 Len
to, who has been sitting around in
the dugout, an opportunity to show
his stuff in the second game. Lento
watched the Robins get two runs
in the first and three in the sixth
before he went to the showers.
•Although Fred Townsend and Lefty
Louis Cheshire both saw action
during the rest of the contest, it
was Lento who received credit for
the whipping, his third without a
victory.
After Red Springs had granted
two runs in the first, one on Clay
ton’s second roundtripper of the
day, Wilmington came back for two
tallies in the second. Bridges and
Poklemba walked. Johnny Edens
