three men to face him went down in
order, two via the strike-out route
and the other on an infield fly to
short-stop.
Sandhills could do nothing in its
half of the first and little Clyde
Dunn, Frank Buchan and Junior
went down in order.
Asheboro drew first blood in their
half of the second when, after Tom
Crews grounded out to shortstop,
Roy Cross walked, went to second
on Harold Ellis’ single past third base
and scored on McGlohon’s infield hit
toward second.
Sandhills came right back in its
half and went ahead 2 to 1. Ed New
ton slammed one on the ground to
third base that was to hot to handle
and that went as a hit. Then Billy
White drove another at third base
and while Adams kicked it around ho
was safe at first and Newton reached
second standing up. Both Newton
and White advanced on Pitcher
Barnes balk while pitching to Bob
Richardson, and Newton scored a!
few seconds later after Richardson's
long fly to center field. White follow
ed him across the plate shortly after
when Neil Melvin singled past first
base, but Melvin was out stealing
second and Arthur Pate ended the
inning with a pop fly to third base.
Asheboro was scoreless in its half
of the third and Sandhills added
another run. Buss Thomas hit the
first ball pitched between second and
third for a triple and scored stand
ing up on Frank Buchan's slow roller
to third.
Asheboro got four runs in the
fourth and shook up Pitcher Thomas,
who was tiring badly after the
strenuous work outs he had under
gone over the week-end. Tom Crews
led off with a triple to center field that
rolled past Alec Cameron, and scored
on Roy Cross’ single to center. Cross
took second on a wild throw. Howard
Adams struck out. Harold Ellis walk
ed. Bolton struck out. Cross scored
and Barnes was safe at first on

back at the pitcher’s box and Adams
and Barnes both scored when Ever

‘Jim” Simons Gets Fire
Alarm Because “You is the
Electric Man”
Brrr—brrr — brrr buzzed the
telephone in the Electric Shop
Monday morning and as "Jim” Si
mons grasped the receiver, a voice
with calm accents said: “We’ve
got a fire.” To which announce
ment, “Jim,” all in one broith
queried, “Why don't you turn in
an alarm ? Where is it ? And why
did you call me ? And the voice
responded, “It’s Tom McDonald’s,
in West Southern Pines, and this
is an electric fire and you is the
electric man.” So the siren sum
moned the fire crews, but Jim had
the edge and beat them to some
smouldering wires in the home of
Tom McDonald.

Richardson and Thomas, but Ashe
boro added two more in the first half
of the fifth. Lowdermilk was out,
third to first. Crews was hit by a
pitched ball and went to second on
Crow’s out, pitcher to first. Adams
singled through second base, scoring
Cross and scored himself a moment
later on Harold Ellis double. Bolton
struck out to end the inning. That
also saw the finish of Buss Thomas
and Howard Auman went in in the
sixth to blank Asheboro and hold the
visitors hitless for the remaining
three innings.
■ Sandhills was scoreless in its half
of the fifth and sixth but in the sev
enth got to Barnes again and scored
two runs. Arthur Pate led off with
a, single over third base and Auman
followed with a single to left field.
Leon Melvin walked, filled the bases.
All held their bases on Buchan’s
short fly to second base. Pate scored
from third on Cameron’s infield out
and Howard came across on Newton’s
infield hit to shortstop. They tied it
up 7 to 7 in the eighth when Rich
ardson was safe on an infield hit and
went to second on a will throw, ad
vanced to third when Pate’s hit down
the third base line was too hot to
handle, and scored on Thomas
scratch hit in front of the plate.
Then, in the ninth, with the .score
tied, Newton was safe on an infield
hit to third, stole second beautiful
ly and scored on Richardson's boom
ing single over third.
Pitcher Thomas showed great
promise before he left the game. He
has a fast ball .that is a mystery to
the batters and when he is rested he
is going to be hard to beat. Auman,
who followed Thomas on the mound
fo;- Sandhills, didn’t give Asheboro a
chance at any time and both pitch
ers showed that they could hit the
ball. Each had two hits for two times
^t bat. Newton and Richardson were
the hitting stars of the game with
three hits each and Newton, along
with Buchan, turned in the outstand
ing fielding jobs of the afternoon.
