Contests: K#*t* Wins for
Roosters Again
-*
Lack of complete reports from
two of the four games played in
the Martin County League Sun
day made it difficult today to
evaluate the situation but there
was plenty of hard playing just
the same, as two of the contests
went into extra innings.
Bear Grass was forced to got
two extra innings to overcome an
early lead which Cross Roads es
tablished in the first three in
nings. Six runs in the ninth in
ning tied the score at 9-all and
la homer by Elbert Harris in the
I last of the' eleventh with one on,
I gave the Bears the victory.
■ Williamston had Roberson (fivg
to three in the eighth inning when
a two-run homer by Tom Brown
; knotted the score and four more
I innings were scoreless for both
teams, leaving the count knotted
| at 5-all when the game was called
I at the end of the twelfth.
No box score was reported for
‘the game played by Oak City at
Everetts, although it was learned
| unofficially that the Roosters won
I thi‘ ball game from the reorganiz
i ed Cubs. 9 to 2 with Kee handling
the pitching chore for Oak City
[while Stalls and Keel did tin
j flinging for Everetts.
Hamilton, which has had its
share of hard luck, ran into some
more. Playing with at least one
injured pfayer, Hamilton lost to
I Hassell (i to 1 although Hassell

Duke Daniel. Hamilton got nine
but failed to get them at the l ight
time.

Hamilton continues to be the
"Hard Luck" club of the Martin
County League, losing another
tough one Sunday that should
have been won. Five of the
club's last six losses have been by
one run margins.
Duke Daniels allowed but one
hit until the 9th inning but was
behind 5 to 1. Hamilton having
collected nine hits but squeezing
just one run out of them.
Two errors by Roebuck were
the most damaging. He was play
ing despite an injured rib.
Daniels still holds his place as
one of the best pitchers in the
league.
Oak City and Hamilton are to
, play a scheduled game Wednes
day and will also make up a game
I that was rained out with the score
tied in the 9th inning, thus having
a doubleheader for the home fans.

ters Sunday while Edmondson got
eight by the whiffing method.
Hassell made three double plays
to help Edmondson out of some
tight spots.
