Hertford Captures Opening Game Oi Conference Series Fh«* Itun* In I.asl Three In ning!* Gi\e Indians I l-<< Mitrjjia ^cvl-mxhty he Perquimans Indians of Hert ford a 11-6 victory over the Wil liamston High School Green Wave in the first game of the play-ofl series for the Albemarle Confer- 1 cnee title for 1951. Hertford opened the game with a three-hit blast that gave them two runs. They followed with a single in the second inning but got no runs and in the third made neither a hit nor a run while Wil liamston, hit less and runless lor the first two ’minus, made three runs in the bottom of the third on two hits, two walks and an error, to take a J-2 load. The fourth inning saw the visit ing Indians make four runs with out a hit. Two errors, a walk and several fielders' choices that fail ed to get the intended runner, did the damage. John Rogers, starter for the Green Wave, was the vie- 1 tim of this disaster. He allowed ' five hits in six innings before giv ing way to Raymond Davis in tin seventh with the score tied at 6-6 After scoring three runs in the third, Williamston came back with one in the fifth and two in 'the sixth to tie the score. The : score was tied after Rogerson had given way to White in the 5th and thus White was credited with the victory, just as Davis who came in with the count tied was charged with tht loss. Hertford’s winning run came in the seventh on two errors, a walk and a hU that netted two tallies. They increased the margin with a run on a hit and two errors in the eighth and added two more in the ninth on three infs and an error Just when the second and third games are to be played is not known now. Examinations are in order next week and play at that time will be difficult Something may be worked out this week-end ■ but the situation is complicated by the fact that Hertford is in the ■ District Playoffs of the Class A division.
