WILLIE MOSS SUFFERS
BROKEN ANKLE
|
The first casualty of the Demon
Deacons baseball team this season
came yesterday afternoon when Wil-.
lie Moss, of Forest City, crack first- j
baseman on the varsity nine, broke a'
small ankle bone on a long slide into j
second base during practice.
Coach John Caddell said it was
highly improbable that the young ■
star, who was considered a Deacon
mainstay, would play any more this
season.
With Moss out of harness, the Dea
cons suffer the loss of an infielder ,
whom Coach Caddell described as a ,
coming young player with brilliant-;
prospects.
At latest reports Moss is recuper- '
ating nicely, and he is expected home
this week to spend the Easter holi- j
days here with his parents.
