DENNING RETURNS TO LINK-UP
Shamrock Denning has returned to the Goldsboro line-up after a
brief absence due to a pulled muscle in his shoulder. In his initial
return to the line-up Tuesday night Sham collected two hits for
three times at bat. One of the hits was a home run. Denning is lead
ing the Goldsboro hitters with a .360 batting average. -\
'Art HAS GOOD NIGHT
The same night Shamrock Denning returned to the Goldsboro line-up
and was having such a good night at bat another Dunn boy was
i having a night for himself.
• Boby Tart, playing with the Wilson Tobs, collected four hits for
five tripe to the plate. One of Tart's hits was a double. Tart has had
j some tough luck at the plate so far and is hitting only .243, but he is
a long ball hitter and has had a number of doubles.
COHEN TART RETURNS TO WILSON
j The Wilson Tobs are virtually becoming a Dunn team. Former
Dunn High School star Cohen Tart has returned to the Wilson club
being optioned to a Virginia team. Tart turned pro this season
tfter playing with Atlantic Christian College. Tart wds a sophomore
: at the school.
Cohen was one of the best all-round athletes to come out of the
local high school. Cohen starred in basketball, baseball, and football.
He played both baseball and football at college. In football he was
; greatly noted for his kicking.
GOLF TOURNEY FOR SERVICEMEN?
During the summer months to follow, Dunn and the surrounding
| area will be swarming with military personnel A great many of these
soldiers will be a long way from their homes. Most of them will be
recruits who know only the men who sleep beside them. The citizens
of Dunn are obligated to issue a warm welcome to these men and to
nfeke them feel wanted. It isn’t hard to look down upon a person
wnom you do not know. You can easily turn a stranger from your
door but could you turn away*your son, your nephew, or your next
door neighbor’s son? That is exactly what these boys are. They are
typical Americans. Just, exactly like the ones who are now fighting
in Korea. •
Our-small town has very little to offer these men in the form
of diversion. The churches are doing a grand job of providing a place
for the soldiers to gather and ”be at home.” The Dunn Ministerial
Association, under Dr. George Cuthrell, is working overtime to pro
vide for the soldiers. The American Legion is sponsoring a canteen
for their benefit. But even with all of this, our streets still seem to be
overcrowded with the soldiers who are looking for something to do.
B Since the golf tourney was successful with local citizens, perhaps
one of like nature could be provided for the servicemen. With the co
operation of local merchants perhaps Charles Johnson could be per
suaded to sponsor such an event. The tourney could be handled in
the identical fashion of the one just over, with perhaps another flight
or two added if the number of participants calls for such a move. j
Someone must take the front for sponsoring such events forthe 1
servicemen. The miniature golf course has already displayed that,
It can arouse attention and hold it. Perhaps it can be an attraction :
for the servicemen.

Johnston Team
Tops Lenoir,
Harnett Gains
Harnett’s fine, young American
Legion team will have a chance to
take the top spot In the Area 1,
League 1 standings tomorrow, night
in the Kinston park, providing the
local boys will go down there with
blood in their eyes and knock off
the leading Lenoir County team.
The Harnett Legion team receiv
ed a bit of unexpected help yester
day in Selma as the Johnston
County team upset the Lenoir club
12 to 6 as the bottom place team
won its second game in League
1 play and its first game over Le
noir in four tries.
The Harnett team after losing two
straight League I games and one
exhibition game with the Wake
county team has won its last three
contests. The locals took a drub
bing from the Johnston County
team in its opener and then got
beat even worse by the team from
Raleigh; but then the young Har
nett boys began to play baseball.
i and they gave the Lenoir team a
; real battle before losing a one-run
decision to the team which had al
i ready become the favorite in their
; own home park. Then the Dunn
sponsored team won over the Johns
ton team, then licked the unde?
i seated Lenoir team, and then pro
; ceeded to repeat the victory over
; the Johnston team in the Selma
park.
I It is beginning to look as if Coach
; Troy Godwin is going to put his
j young team, most of the boys have
another year of eligibility, on top
of the heap by the end of the sched
ule, if he is magician enough to
hold the 15 and 16 year-old boys
I steady. The boys have a big job,
and Coach Godwin has a bigger
job, but it is believed that they
I can do it.
J Harnett gets a chance to take
| the top tomorrow night. Now
j that the Johnston team jias mark
ed up the important win over Le
, noir, the League 1 Dattle has be
( come most interesting with the
, dominating club having its domi
| nance removed, temporarily at
j least. Tomorrow night’s game at
. (Kinston will be a tough one to
1, win. It will prove the stock of
! • the Harnett team. Can the young
i sters hold steady in the big ones.
