ANTHONY & HARRIS Signing Of Boys From Cleveland By League Starts Fuss Gillespie And Hnrd Lost To Wake Forest For Football Due To Baseball. The following' sport story bv Wade Ison in the Charlotte News will be of interest in Shelby and this coun ty because both of the boys men tioned came from this county. Ralph Gillespie was a star base ball player at Shelby high, while “Runt” Hord is a native of Kings Mountain and played at the high school there. The article follows: The National Association oi Pro fessional baseball Leagues shortly will be formally charged with break ing Its promise as regards signing of college athletes by Patrick Mil ler. coach of athletics at Wake Forest college, it was learned here today. Miller will file the charges with Hugo Bezdek, head of the National Coaches association ifootball!, who also is head mentor at Ppnn State Two Stars Involved. Such charges grew out of two stars of the Wake Forest football team—Runt Hord. a halfback, and Ralph Gillespie, an end -failing to report to the Wake Forest train ing camp due to a contract Hord Is under with (he Detroit Tigers and Gillespie's decision to join the Win ter school of the St. Louis Cardinals in Ohio. Both these boys were counted on heavily by Miller, whose proteges are dubbed the Demon Deacons and who represent the Baptist institu tion of North Carolina. Miller came to North Carolina last year as an assistant to Stanley Cofall after the two had teamed together for the last nine years in the coaching business, giving up a position at Baltimore Loyala to ac cept the Wake place. Miller Is a graduate of Fordham university and has played professional football with Summers he is life guard at At lantic City, N. J. Forbid In East. “In our section of the country the pro ball leagues don't dicker with the collegiates, or if they do, they bind them to no such con tracts as involves Hord particularly. Recently Judge K. M. Landis okay ed an agreement of the professionals in which it was stated that no league, major or otherwise, would tamper with a college ball player until his graduation," Miller stated. "And I believe that this agree ment holds down here. Anyway, I’m going to find out from Bezdek when I file my charges.” When questioned as to Hord’s contract, with the Tigers. Miller re plied that the Detroit scout had Hord's name to a contract that, pro hibited his playing football any where. The youngster has two years of eligible play as does Gillespie, at Wake Forest. Hord is a shortstop and played that position with the Concord Weavers, semi-pros during the sum mer just closed. Young Gillespie is a catcher and at present is playing with Reidsville against the Virginia State semi-pro champions. Neither has anrxnunced intentions, of re luming to the Wake campus un : less their Contracts were doctored by ; the two majors. Easy! Quick!
