The game was a nip and tuck affair until the last of the seventh when Johnny Lanning's fighting crew staged a rally that brought in six run off seven hits. Lincolnton used three chunkers in an effort to curb the Marauders and were successful in tying the game in the seventh for a few brief minutes; however, in the bottom half of the same frame the local team ran wild to bring in six addi tional runs. Richards started the game for the visitors, gave way to Glover in the sixth, who in turn re tired in favor of Harmon in the hot seventh. Big Red Riddick was on the hill for the Marauders until the seventh, but took a walk when the Cards knotted the score, with Higgins Duncan doing the relief work. Dun can received credit for winning the game. Glover was charged with the defeat for Lincolnton. The Marauders blasted out two home runs. Outfielder Tom Cumby sent the first one high over the left field fence with no ducks on the pond to count for a single run in the fifth. Art Billy line-drived an other over the fence at the same spot, Marion's second homer of the evening. This time one mate was on base. Billie's circuit blow came in the fateful seventh when Glover and Harmon were being shelled all over the place. Beam pecked out a triple in the same inning which came within an ace of heing a homer. Art Billie, playing second base for Lanning almost had a perfect night at bat as he collected four hits out of five trips to the platter. The first four times up connected for safeties, but struck out his last time at bat. Bonnetti and Beam were close on his heels, each with three for five. Buss Hufstettler and catch er Duncan had the best night at bat for the Cardinals, each with three for five. Lincolnton continued to fight hard until the very end. The picture began to darken a bit in the ninth as Duncan walked the first two men to face him, but he went to work in earnest and struck out the next three to end the game. The line score: Lincolnton 000 201 300— 6 10 5 Marion 010 410 61x—13 18 3 Batteries: For Lincolnton—Rich ards, Glover (6) Harmon (7) to Duncan; for Marion—Riddick and Duncan (7) to Bonnetti. Doubles: Beam, Halkard and Bonnetti. Trip les: Beam. Home runs, Billie and Cumby. Umpires: Hall, behind the plate; Camp on the bases.

Marion Sports Writer Graduates At U. N. C. Jim Klutz, son of Rev. and Mrs. T. L. Klutz of Marion, will graduate from the University of North Caro lina in June. He first entered the University in 1937, but there was a big gap in the 12 year span be tween the time he entered and his graduation. That was between Sep tember 1941 and September of 1946. During three years and two months of those four years he was in the Army. In the fall of 1938 Jim wrote sports for the Alumni Review and also began free-lancing. While with the news bureau he had become known to many sports editors, and he decided to try to sell them a syn dicated column. Soon his column was appearing three times a week in the Greensboro News, Winston Salem Journal, Asheville Times, and Charlotte News. In time he added to his list of clients American Lawn Tennis Mag azine, Richmond Times Dispatch, Atlanta Constitution, and wrote special assignments for the Wash ington Times-Herald and other Eastern newspapers. From childhood, Klutz never wanted to do anything but write sports. When he entered the army he thought his sports-writing days had been interrupted for the duration. But he ended up in public relations, and as a scribe for the army has had , plenty of opportunities to cov er competitive sports and to write features on a succession of athletes. He came out of the Army in No vember, 1944 and in December took a full-time job at the news bureau in Chapel Hill. He had no idea of reentering the University, but the more he thought about G. I. bene fits the more he wanted to go to school again, and in late Septem ber, 1945 he became a G. I. student. He became a candy seller, ticket taker for the Carolina theatre and picked up other odd jobs including baby sitting, atheletic program sell ing, soda-jerking. According to an article in the Chapel Hill Weekly, he hasn't yet lined up a regular job to begin, be cause, like almost everybody else in Chapel Hill, he's writing a novel. RED CROSS BLOOD PROGRAM UNDERWAY HERE The American National Red Cross has inaugurated a project of collect ing blood throughout the nation for the purpose of supplying blood to the hospitals in order that there may be an ample supply for all pa tients needing blood transfusions without cost to the patients. The Red Cross has set up blood centers throughout the nation for the purpose of collecting blood to be used as outlined above, and each regional center will distribute blood to the hospitals in that area as the occasion may demand. The American Red Cross has pro vided a number of bloodmobiles, which will make eight periodic vis its to the counties in each area. Marion is located in the Aaheville Regional Blood Center, and the mo bile will make it* first trip to Ma rion on June 8. Reverend . M. 0. Owens has been selected as the gen eral chairman for this work. R. W. Twitty has been designated as pro curement chairman for the county,; and Mrs. J. E. Evans has been nam- ■ ed voluntary service chairman. The bloodmobile will come to Ma rion on June 8 and will be stationed in the East Marion village. Rev erend C. C. Cross will be in charge of the procurement work for this locality, and he urges all public spirited citizens, who are in good health and physically fit, living in this community, to make a blood donation on this date. He expressed the hope that he would be able to provide through his donors a mini mum of 75 pints of blood. If this goal is to be reached, it will be ne cessary for approximately 125 don ors to be processed. Dr. George Rowe will be the local medical ad visor for this work. This movement of the Red Cross has the endorsement of the Marion Medical Society, the McDowell County Board of Health, and the Board of Trustees of the Marion General Hospital. Mr. and Mrs. T. Wise Hall at tended the commencement exercises at Lees McRae college Monday, and were accompanied home by their daughter, Mary Alice, for the sum mer vacation.
