Catcher Laughs About
Double Against Pirates
St. Louis, Mo. (AP) ? Catcher
Bill Sarni is laughing to himself
about the short double he smacked
against the Pirates in Busch Sta
dium.
Sarni popped the ball high in
the air above home plate but Pi
rate catcher Jack Shepard and
first baseman Dale Long permitted
it to land untouched a few feet
in front of the plate. Sarni raced
to second base and was credited
with a double.
A total of 633,484 fans turned
out last season for Eastern League
baseball games, an increase of

Surveying the Scene
with Hal Shapiro
? Morrhrad City's high-scoring halfback, Danny O'Neal, Is not the
highest scorer in the state at this writing.
According to an article in Sunday's Greensboro Daily News, a boy
from Granite Falls who has tallied 27 touchdowns holds the distinc
tion of leading the scorers.
There is a fly in (he ointment Insofar as Granite Falls is concern
ed and that is that the team will be unable to take part In the state
playoffs since their coach did not register his team with the State
Athletic Association.
Morehead City will play in the state Class A playoffs, and their
opponents will be either Wallace or Mount Olive in their opening game.
O'Neal Is a much sought-after athlete. He has already received an
offer from Clemaon, and Wake Forest and Duke are also reported to
have shown Interest.
There arc other schools in this state that could use a back such as
O'Neal.
His first touchdown Jaunt against Dunn Friday light was probably
his best of the season as four big, burly Dunn linemen had their
chances at him, and Uiey Just couldn't hold oo to the swivel-hipped,
elusive 165-pound halfback.
It is our hope that all of the schools in the state will take notice
of the Eagles' stellar ballclub and that several of the boys will be going
to college when they graduate next June.
Among other seniors on the club, as well as O'Neal, are ends Gus
Aspcnburg and Raymond Earl Willis; tackle Kent Brown, guard George
Whittle, center Bradley Mcintosh, and backs Jimmy Parker, Walter
Willis, Ronald Howland and Darrcll Sanders.
The fans should help promote the boys so college athletic depart
ments will know the type of talent available at Marehead City.
? Unsung hero for the Beaufort Scadogs, who have been having
a rough time this season, is the big rugged end by the name of Jimmy
Owens.
Jimmy, captain of the Seadap, has been the naiher one hoy far
the Beaufort club this season both on defense fad oo offense.
He is another of the Carteret County boys that we are certain would
be a welcome addition to many of the college squads in this state.
? Tonight at 7, the baaketball season officially ape as la the county
when the Newport Hawks (note the new monicker) play host to
Jasper. Smyrna will play haat to Atlantic In another douMeheader
tonight.
Newport, which doesn't have a football team, has been working out
since school started, and la getting the jump on other county schools
in their starting of the court schedule.
Coach Bob King is reported to have a fine squad and they'll be out
for the Seashore Conference crown and the county championship this
year.
Back frem last year's squad are four regulars. They are Lea Gllli
kin, Eugene Edwards, Berlyn Temple and Gilbert Garner, and to
take the place af the graduated forward Jimmy Kelly, will be Jahaay
Masan, reputed to ha aoe af the heat ballplayers la Mm area, though
only a freshman.
Virginia Mann and Ann Dennis are back from last year's girls team.
