Last week we predicted that warm
er weather was sure to come, and
come it did. Several days the past
week felt like it was time to take a
dip in your favorite ' pool or the old
swimming hole.
The people in this section of the
state do not appreciate the ideal
climate here. Last Sunday I was
in upper South Carolina, and due to
the fact that 1 was pushed for time
1 did not get to do what most of the
inhabitants of that community were
doing. Out of the several pools that
I visited, all were filled to capacity.
Hazelwood has the "baseball" fever.
Another team has been organized
the Independents. They saw some
service last year, but are expected to
play more games this season than
they did last. According to the sec
retary of the club, most of the games
will be played on Sunday, especially
on the Hazelwood field when the Man
ufacturers play on Saturday. Since
there is only the one field they have
to arrange their games accordingly.
The Independents are made up of
players not on the regular team of
the Manufacturers, although one or
two were used in the Murphy game
last Sunday. This was on account of
several of their regulars not being
present.
The Manufacturers chalked up their
second win of the season against
Biltmore, the new member in the
Industrial League, Saturday. It
seems that the Hazelwood sluggers
really pounded out the hits, getting
two homers and a number of other
base hits. Putnam pitched an unsual
game, allowing Biltmore only four
hits out of ;4 chances ut the bat.
Anything can happen in a baseball
game as was shown at Biltmore. De
spite the fact that Putnam allowed
only four hits, Biltmore scored six
runs, this was due to several costly
errors made by the Manufacturers.
This week Hazeiwood goes to Enka,
last year's league champions, to play
their first game this season together.
It is expected that quite a number of
local fans will make the trip to see
the game.
In the fighting world the big at
traction this week is the bout between
Boss and Armstrong in the welter
weight class. Both fighters have ex
cellent records and it should be a
great bout.
And while on the subject' of fight
ing, it won't be long until the title
bout of 1!.'I8 will be here, the one
with Joe Louis, heavyweight cham
pion and Max Schmeling, the main
characters in the drama. This is the
fight that the world has been waiting
for and it takes place on the night
of June 22nd at Madison Square. Gardens.

Shut-Out Game Thrown Away
By Costly Errors By Hazel
wood; Putnam Pitched
Air-Tight Ball
The Hazelwood Manufacturers
tramped Biltmore on the hitter's field
last Saturday by the score of 1 1 to
(i, with Putnam, southpaw hurler for
the Manufacturers, allowing only
four hits throughout the game.
Due to several costly errors on the
part of the Hazelwood players the
Biltmore nine managed to get six
runs. It was not until the seventh
inning that a Biltmore player reached
first base, and the game looked like
it was going to be a shut-out, but
then the errors began to happen.
Andy Wyatt led the Manufacturers
with 5 hits out of five trips to the
plate, a home run, a triple and three
singles. Joe Scruggs also connect
ed for a home run and a double out
of four times at bat. C. McMahan
managed to get a homer and a single
our of four chances.
The win Saturday puts Hazelwood
on the top side as to the number of
victories, having won two and lost
one game so far this season in the
Industrial loop.
This coming Saturday the Manu
facturers play the strong Enka team
at Enka.

Ross-Armstrong
Fight Center 01
Boxing Interest
Quite a lot of enthusiasm has been
shown in the bout tonight between
Barney Ross, welterweight champion
of the world, and Henry Armstrong,
negro, featherweight champion, in
Madison Square Gardens. The bout
is another fight promoted by the fa
mous Mike Jacobs.
Although the bout is not in the
heavyweight class it has caused quite
a bit of interest in the fighting circles.
Armstrong at present is feather
weight champion and has everything
to gain and nothing to lose when he
meets the welterweight champion for
the title. Ross weighs 142 pounds
against Armstrong's MO.
Armstrong has one of the most out
standing records in knockouts in the
history of the ring, in his last thirty
seven fights, winning all of them,
thirty-five, have been knockout bouts
in Armstrong's favor. Although
with a record as good as this one, the
odds are seven to one on Ross, due
to his experience and his ability to
go the full 15 rounds. The negro has
won most of his lights by knockouts
and thereby not having to go the
full limit.
