If LOCAL JUNIORS ARE LEADING (INFERENCE V Cherryville Juniors To Play Charlotte Tonight Won Three More Victories During The Past Week, Thurs., Sat., And Tues.7 Games. Since the last edition of The Eagle, Coach Jack Kiser’s aggre gation have added three more scalps to their fast growing pile of victories. The Cherries are de finitely "on the march ’. On last Thursday, the Gaston ia City team were the victims, coming up on the short end of a t;-f> score. This was a ten inning all'air, with Earl 1.ail’s double in the last of the 10th scoring Klutz who had gained first on an error by the catcher and had reached second by virute of Weaver’s being issued a base on balls. In addition to Lads double ending the game, he also sent one to •’granny” for a homer m the sec ond inning. Gastonia forged a head by one run in the fourth in ning, but the Cherries evened the score in the filth. Ken Leal, the city team's ace went to the mound in the 7th, and was greeted by a three bagger by Menkle, wno la ter stole home to give Cherry ville a one run lead. Gastonia tllie ‘-again in the ninth to knot C- ore at 5-all, but couldn't old the rampaging locals down, fids was the second defeat hand ed the city team by Cherryville in the present round robin series. On Saturday, June 24th. the Cherries took the measure of Coach Porter Sheppards Gaston i.. county team by a score of 9 to 1. Kay Greene did the tossing l'or the locals in this contest and allowed the Gastonia lads eight hits while his teammates were gathering a like number from the otloruigs of lino, Mciviahan, and Jacobs. Although he got in hot water three times during the contest, Green tightened down in the pinches and came away the v ictor in the one sided scoring contest. Lineberger led the Cher r.vville barrage with three for four in addition to a free pass to first issued him by McMahan. Green obtained two for four in his turns at bat. The Gastonia pit ciicrs sent six of the Cherries down by the strike-out method while Green fanned nine of Coach Sheppards charges. On Tuesd ay of this week, Coach Jack Kisei took his team to Le noir and came back with a 10-4 decision in a seven inning affair, lloke Coon did some nice pitching in gaining ti e victory, lfenkle and \\ eaver led the Cherryville hit ting attack with two for four, while Jenkins was collecting a like number for the losers. The Cherries journey to Char lotte tonight for u return engage ment with Coach Joe Moody's team, gaint time set at 8:15 p. AL, ulGritfith Park. In the last encounter with the Queen City Lads, the game went into sixteen innings before the Cherryvill/e lads could come to the front with a 5-4 win. A double front the bat of Ben Tillman decided this last meeting of the two teams. Coac.i Kiser will probably send Greet, to the mound tonight to lace Jack llargett, ace left hand er of the Cbarlotte nine. A large number of Cherryville fans are expected to be on hand to root for the home team in this in - portant game. MKa. BLACK RECEIVES ANOTHER DONATION ON SECOND BAPTIST CHURCH Lust week Mis. D. M.
