The second lhghl. wilh seven players in Ihe bracket, had worked down to the finals by Wednesday, with Don fvans ol Orlando inecli'ig T. V. McCall of Miami for second division honors.

Lauderdalei match, they play ed a threesome Wednesday to de cide both rounds al once. A. C. Garden of Canton defeated TSj' spearheading HAZFLWOOD really had a hard fight on their hands Saturday, for Knka was out for blood. Tom Tweed, their catcher and a lead ing hitter in the Industrial loop, came through with a double his first time at bat, bringing in two runs, and then Dick Allen who was the hottest halter they had dur ing the game, brought him home. George Price, their shortstop was another dangerous batter. Like all close games, this one turned the heat on the umpires, and Knka called a forum three or four times to argue some decisions until final ly Whilnor got disgusted and walk ed off the field. The ump always lias a hard life, and when lie calls them as he sees them if Ihe de cision favors the team he is select ed by, the others swear he's crook ed. ALTIIOLCII the game Saturday was long, there was some good hall played, although there shouldn't have been as many errors. From the start it looked like a bad day for Hazelwood, for Hud Hlalock wasn't pitching with his usual con trol and threw a lot more balls than he usually has to. When Oliver Yount dropped a pop fly we figured that was the sign that Hazelwood was really in danger. But then Hazelwood has been in some close scrapes before, and their old fighting spirit brought them through with the help of a few Enka errors to overbalance their own. Blalock bore down the last half of the game and showed a lot of guts in doing as good a job as he did with all the pressure on him. Ervin Shook, in case you haven't noticed it, has been doing fancy work at shortstop and seem ed to enjoy going to bat with his short heighth making it hard for the pitcher to throw them to him. And Sam Lane, who can run like a rabbit as well as smack out a lot of hits, is a mighty good man to lead off the batting order. THE Mountaineers this year should be in better shape to face their opponents than in some time, but the same things that help them assist the teams they play. This means that whether they get all th,; wins everyone wants THE WAYNESVILLE MOUNTAINEER am Fir Hazdwoodl Larger Field Expected To Compet e In Tourney Match Play Will Follow Schedule Monday Through Friday Next Week The Waynesville Country Club Invilalion (Jolt tournament will be gin with qualifying rounds being played eilher Saturday or Sunday, open lo all golfers in and around Waynesville.

Karly this week games went more or less as expected, with the High School doubling the score, 14 to 7, over the Lions, and the Veterans struggling through to a 10-8 win at the expense of Pet Dairy on Monday night. A slight rain Monday cut down attendance, and when a decision was made to go ahead with the schedule the Youth Club was with out enough players to meet the Unagusta nine, so lost 9-0 by for feit. Pet then played the Lions, and ended the game leading 11-8 Box scores for these games were not kept. Vet Pensions To Go Up 20 Percent By September 1st WINSTON-SALF.M. Pensions for approximately 35,000 North Carolina veterans of both World Wars and for more than 4,000 de pendents will be increased 20 per cent under new legislation signed by Presdcnt Truman, according to announcement today by P. L. Lind ley, adjudication officer for the regional Veterans Administration office. The Act also authorizes payment of full pensions or compensations to veterans who are hospitalized or domiciled in VA institutions. Here tofore, they were limited to $20 of their full monthly payments and in certain cases to $8. VA estimates cost of the new legislaton at $298 -500,000 for the first year. The in creases provided by the law will be effective September 1, 1946. Inasmuch as the monthly benefit payments are not paid in advance, the increased rates will not reflect in any payments made before Oc tober 1, 1946. The law requires no action by affected recipients, veter ans or widows who receive pen sions, as the new rates will be ap- pneu automatically. Inquires to VA are being dis- to their credit this season There are only two more baseball games scheduled here; Green River playing Aug. 31 and Canton the following week-end.
