Clark and Caldwell were the
Five Points battery. Clark struck
out six men. He was never in
'trouble, giving up only five bits.
Rrrorless fielding by his teammates
added to the victory. Biggest In
ning for Five Points was the
fourth, when McJunkln homered
with the bases loaded.
Battery for Troop 2 was Davis
and Hill. Although Davis had only
one strike-out to his credit, he gitve
up only four hits und pitched a
good game until Mclunkin's four
bagger put a damper on Troop 2's
ambitions. Davis was also the lead
ing hitter for his side, getting a
single and a double for two times
up.

13-8 The win gives Waynesvihe
a 10-3 season's record with a 7-2
Conference mark.
Tuesday's game was marked by
walks and long base hits. It was a
sluggish affair, especially on the
Mountaineer defensive part, as
three pitcher gave u 10 walks to
Cat baiters. Cullowhee could only
garner three hits off Fradv and
Jenkins, and did not get a hit off
Jim Kuykendall In three innings.
cWh Te agile used all 14 men In
uniform.
Jimmy Frady, freshman left
hander, was Teague's mound
choice and looked good until los-
ing his control, lie got by 1. 2. 3 in
the fu'st. but walked Phillips and
names after striking out Ingram
in the second. He made Bryson fly
to center, but loaded the sacks
when he passed Stephenson. A Cul.

Wike walked. Ed Sutton then tag
ged Frady for a double, scoring
two runners. Ralph Jenkins re
lieved at that point and made Tay

Jenkins stayed on for two more
innings, though five runs were
scored off him, Phillips' triple and
Crawford's double were the big
blows given up by Jenkins.
Jim Kuykendall, Mountaineer
ace, came in from right field to
pitch the fifth, sixth and seventh
and had the Cats tame In those
three innings.
The Waynesville nine racked up
two runs in the first on Carol

His coach, Donn Kinle, says the long throws are due primarily
to coordination and form that make up for his lack of weight.
