GIBSON SFAMPS PINEVILLE
IN AN AVALANCHE OF RUNS
The Undefeated Mecklenburg Team Goes
Down 18-o.—The Locals Make Five
Home Runs.
Pineville’s minions came Saturday to
Concord, saw and were conquered—
Crushed under an avalanche of hits and
runs —thus ending the mooted question
as to who had the better baseball team,
the Gibson Gingham Manufacturers or
the Mecklenburg small town lads. The
final score, it may be said in passing,
was a trifle one-sided, even for a ball
game at Gibson, the final count of the
adding machines being 19 to 0.
The beating was administered in the
first inning. After this frame it was
merely a matter of form, playing the re
quired ' number of innings. Pineville
came up to the bat to begin with, very
chesty. In short order they were retired
but they were undaunted. Had they not
won 12 straight games? Their confi
dence soon wilted, however.
Ellis, first batter for Gibson, connected
with the second ball pitched for a hot
single and was followed by Basinger who
walked. With two on bases, Miller er
rored McLean's grounder, allowiug Ellis
to score. Fink was out on a grounder to
the pitcher but Dago Siil'lth cleaned up
the bases by putting one over the paling?
in left field.
At this juncture a conference was call
ed by the Pineville players and. after
words, 'it was decided to let Williams con
tinue burling despite the fact that his
curves bad no mdre break than did the
average grammar school boy’s. That this
was unwise was shown shortly afterward.
Wood went out but Andrews was safe
on an error. Haney and Simmons follow
ed with successive home runs. Ell's
made his second single of the inning and
Basinger scored him with a beautiful dou
ble. McLean then retired the side by a
grounder to Manson.
Myriad other runs were garnered in
the subsequent innings but the game bad
lost its flavor. The three home runs in
the first inning were added to later by
Fink who lamed one over in the second
stanza and by McLean who did likewise
in the sixth.
Gibson’s hitting was lead by EHis, who
maeje, four bi,ts ip his first foUr tpips to
the bat. He fell down the Hkt IV(o times
in trying for home runs. Haney also did
some good hitting, getting three safe hits
out of five times at the bat. Every mem
ber of the team hit safely with tile excep
tion of Wood and Mclnnis.
Simmons, Wake Forest pitcher, had the
visitors eating out of his hand in the en*
tire contest. During the greater part of
the time, he exerted little energy but id
the sevefith inning after a single and a
double by the first two batters, he struck
out the next two at the plate and forced
the third man to go put' on a weak
grounder. This was the only tight place
he was in during the entire game.
Fink, did a pretty piece of stealing in
the third inning. He singled and then
stole second. The second baseman er
rored Dowu’t .throw and Fink went to
third.. The ball was thrown in from cen
terfield where it had gope and while Man
son was holding it, he slipped on in home.
Williams, the Pineville pitcher, was the
only member of his team able to hit. He
made three hits 'out of four times at the
bat, two of them being doubles. His
pitching toward the last of the game
was much better, also, the curves be
ginning to break better than nt first.
To Frank Mills the game was a costly
one. He promised the Gibson batters a
dollar for each home run. He had only
two dollar bills in change in Mr pocket.
He was somewhat taken bark when he
had to have a ten dollar bill changed in
the first inning and had to pay a total of
five dollars during the game.

I Stanfield, June 6.—\Vhct is consider
ed by authorities ns one of Stanly’s most

jgqpd thing when they see it but this
j cannot be said of T. C. Love and R. C. 1

[of what promises to be one of the best,
if not the best quarry, in the state, or

Accurate official tests show that the
rook is of a highly excellent quality. In
facts .Tastier L. Stucky. state geologist,
says in part:
"This report means that the material
passes, entirely satisfactorily, all the re
quirements for crushed stone in general
| ooneete and road building use. A stone,
i which has the French Coefficient of 10 is!
satisfactory. Tour stone has a coef
ficient of 21.1 which means it is nn ex
cellent stone. The material is entirely
satisfactory for crushed stone for nil
I sorts of general road and building pur
■ poses.”
It is of especial interest that the stone

BATTLE OVER TAX
REDUCTION LOOMS
| Sentiment Fcir Further Cut Crystallizing.
| —Mellon Stands by Old Program.
• Washington, June 6.—Although the
| next Congress will not convene until De
j cember, the question of tax reduction al
ready is forging rapidly to the. front and
1 in the opinion of interested adminkstrn
tion officials, the issues involved are bi
coming crystallized.
As in the case of the previous legis
| lative battle over the Mellon tax plan,
officials believe the principal differences
likely to arise in any tax revision pro
gram will center around the amount of
the total cut and the manner in which
relief may be accorded in the various'
brackets. On this assumption they base
their opinion that the question of sharp
cuts in surtaxes and elimination of cer
tain other levies such as estate, excise
apd gift taxes, will provide the battle
ground.
| Secretary Mellon was Represented to
day as having in no way changed his
, belief that lower surtaxes will mean a
j greater volume of revenue to the treas
[ ury and, while it appeared there would
| be no stand for a maximum as great as
] is carried in the preset law, stubborn op
position is expected from many quarters
, to any suggestion that the maximum be
! reduced to 15 per cent. The secretary
has said that the 15 per cent, rate was
probably scientifically correct.
