The Christians softballers hop

hits and took advantage of the
ragged play of the Baptists in the
field to come up with a thirteen to
I wo victory Monday night. The
Baptists couldn't find themselves
before it was too late and the da
mage was done. The Christians
darted off with a bang scoring
our runs in the first inning which
jroved to be enough to walk off

President Howard Gaylord !
has called a meeting of the
officers and directors of the
Martin County League for
Thursday night of this week
at 8:M o’clock at the court
house in Williamston.
Everyone interested in the
league or teams composing it
is invited and the representa
tives of each club are urged ’
to attend.
In the second game of the night
which proved to be a real thrill- i
er, the Methodists defeated the
Episcoterians six to five but the
battling Episcoterians carfied the;
fight to the bottom of the tenth
inning. The game was a topsy
turvy affair at: the lead changed :
hands several times. The Meth
odists got to an early lead as they
scored once in the first inning.
Brandon was hit on the leg and I
took first base and advanced on
Harris’ infield out. Stalls then
came through with a run scoring
single and the Methodists were
out in front one to nothing. They J
added one more in the second. Os
wald Stalls was showing great
form during the first part of the
game as he held the Episcoterians
hitless for four innings of play
then they exploded. Skinner and !
Critcher singled in the top of the 1
fifth and Bob Newell came r
through with a home run to deep
right field tc score both runners. a
The score then turned in favor of *
the Episcoterians three and two. 1
rhe Methodists then came up and 1
scored two in the fifth and they
took the lead. It looked like that
me run margin would be enough
tor the Methodists but the Epis
■oterians scored two runs in the
op of the seventh on one hit by
-obb and a fielder's choice to take
he lead five to four. The Meth
idists came up in the bottom of
he seventh and tied it up at five
ill.
They were up and down in ord
-*r in the eighth and ninth innings,
rhe Episcoterians started it off in
he top of the ninth wh£n "Tex”
jjeen singled and Fitzhugh Fus
iell followed with a single. Two
>n and nobody out. Things look
'd bright for the EP's hut the next
hree men popped up to the in
ield and that was all for the Epis ;
oterians.
The Methodists then got their j
•hance to do a little damage and I .
Poor Attendance
Nay Alter Hours
The rainy weather which has
put many baseball leagues in bad :
financial shape and actually caus
ed some to disband, has hit the
Municipal Swimming PooLin Wil
liamston a hard blow, Coach
Stuart Maynard, recreational di
rector declared today. Unless a
let up in the rains or improved at
tendance is shown in the next few
days it is likely that a change in
the operating hours of the pool
will be necessary, he said.
Classes for non-swimmers have
been held for the past week but
attendance upon them has also
been light. However, the classes
\yjll be continued for a while to
determine whether the weather
has been the principal cause of
the lack of patronage. 1
The rain and wind storms of '
last week-end so filled the pool :
with limbs and leaves that it was
necessary to drain the water out
and fresh water is being turned in 1
>o that the pool is ready for use
again.
Unless patronage of the pool im
proves it is likely that it will be
ppened only three or four days a
week for the remaining six weeks i
of the season.
Coach Maynard expressed re
?ret that such a fine facility was
send everybody home. The first
nan up walked and advanced on
i fielder’s choice and both, run
lers were safe. Tall, lanky John
iVard then laid down a perfect
>unt and the bases were loaded,
lim Lowry, doing the pitch for the
!P’s had allowed the Methodists
nly four hits up to this point but
lad been a little wild as he had
valked seven men. Clayton was
he next man up and Lowry walk
d home the winning run and the
lethodists continued their win
ing ways.
Stalls was the winning pitcher
nd Lowry the loser. Cobb was
He leader for the losers getting J
wo for four. Stalls got one for
liree for the winners. I
