Strong Has Had His
Share Of Good Luck ?
uy unase Vance
Post Sports Writer
"There are three funda
mentals that a beginner has to
learn about the game of golf,"
said Walter Strong, a local
enthusiast who has had more
than his share of good luck this
summer.
"A beginner must learn the
grip, how to concentrate and
the proper stance for hitting,”
he explained.
Rangers Maul
Giants , Lose
To Orioles
As they have done on two
other occasions this “season,
the Mecklenburg Orioles
snapped a Morris Field Win
ning streak.
Manager Minnie Mendoza's
super crew turned back the
Rangers Sunday afternoon, 4-3
before the largest crowd to
witness a semi-pro baseball
contest here this season.
The Orioles, now 20-1 and
leading the Jackie Robinson
League by a wide margin, had
to come from behind to
accomplish their third
straight verdict over the Ran
gers, who now have dropped
only 4 of their first 21 contests.
Koster, who came on in
relief of Bert Cueto, got credit
for the win and Lafayette
Currence absorbed the loss
Currence took over the starter
Ricky Summers in the
seventh.
Morris Field went ahead on
a long time home run by
Albert Turner in the second
inning and they stretched the
margin to 2-0 with a pair of
hits and some nifty base run
ning in the third. The Orioles
got back in the contest with
two markers in the seventh,
but Morris Field got one back
in the third to take a 3-1
advantage A base hit, walk
and two Ranger errors let in a
Oriole run in the eight to tie
the game for the second time
and the Oriole produced the
winning run on Nester Vales
quez's single to go ahead for
good in the top of the ninth
Herman Thomas's sharp
crew whipped the Hoskins
Giants. 7-1, Saturday after
noon behind the fine pitching
of Chris Hill, who wiffed II
and walked five
In the meantime, Tim Mor
ris, Bobby Reynolds, Randy
Falls and Kevin Staley were
leading a 10-hit Morris Field
attack against Benny Little
and Floyd McDowell
Morris set the pace with
three singles and as many
rbi's Reynolds contributed
two doubles, Falls a single and
a double and Staley a home
run
I
Strong, a former number
one golfer at Johnson C. Smith
University, has won eight golf
tournaments in a row. These
include winning the Ridge
wood Tournament in Colum
bia, S.C. a tournament which
included Lee Elder and team
ing with James Bouler to win
the Par Busters tournament
here in Charlotte recently at
Sunset Hills.
“I’ve won two sets of woods,
a set of irons, a dozen golf
balls, and golf gloves in recent
weeks,” he told the Post.
His sparing partners include
Otto Gamble, Bernard
Thompson. Melvin Griffin.
Keith Marshall, Shelley Law
rence and Preach Moore.
Strong is an offset print
maker who also operates
Strong's Janitorial Service.
He said he doesn't want to
have to depend on golf to make
his living and enjoys just
playing on the weekends. The
28-year-old 1967 graduate of
West Charlotte High School
said he got his start when he
was caddying 12 years ago at
Quail Hollow Country Club.
"I got my first set of clubs
that year and I became exci
ted about the game But I
really didn't overly exert my
self and considered golf as
more of a leisure type of sport.
It was something different to
do, " said Strong
Now it is still a leisure sport
for him, but winning and
performing means more to
him than it used to.
Cedarwood is the best
course in town according to
Strong because he likes the
layout and the challenging
greens and fairways.
When he is not on the golf
course or at work, he is
entertaining Rose Morrow, his
fiance of the past few years.
Charlotte area golfers have
begun to recognize and appre
ciate a Strong game i pardon
the pun)
