A new. or rather revived, fea ture is adding to the growing popularity of the Cleveland Springs Country and Golf club. The two tennis courts have been worked over and are now in good condition. More, unt^ more the Cleveland Springs club is getting to be a fav orite sport center. About everything in the sport line, from checkers to golf, is being done there—bridge, horseshoe, tennis, golf, etc. • • * • The club’s tournament committee Js now planning to start a series of invitation tournaments similar to the one held last week at Morgan ton. The plan is to invite 20 golfers here on different days from Hick ory, Gastonia, Rutherfordton, Mor ganton, Gaffney and other neigh boring towns. Shelby golfers will be matched with the visitors and all will have a neighborly, get-together round with each other. The fine condition of the local links now will appeal to the visitors who are fond I of their golf and enjoy playing now and then -on a new course. While the golf subject is up, it is interesting to note that Mr. John Schenck, sr., one of the two Shelby men to first play the game, is in the finals of the sec ond flight In the annual Cleve tand Springs tourney. • • • • At Spartanburg last week • Jocko" Lyle, former Cleveland. Springs pro now with the Country club there, and his teammate, Fanning Hear on, lost the city championship aft |er a hard struggle to Roilo Stein mehi and Russell Lentz of the Shoresbrook club. Lyle, who has a driving form that is beautiful, clicked in several birdies, however, before he was finally downed. Shelby baseball fans should get in behind the American Legion junior team which has already started a good season here. The youngsters appear to have all man ner of baseball ability for their years. Shelby has had high school champions and there is no reason why the Legion Junior Team, il properly supported, should not go places. Last year the Gastonia Le gion team won the state and divi sion title and came close to the na tional title. The age limit is 17 years and baseball is far better for! youths of that age than a number of other things they might get In-! terested in during the afternoons. Give the boys a hand! • • • * Babe Carr, the Shelby light weight, Is getting in shape for another bout. Laid out for a time by injuries. Babe is getting tired of all the chatter about Jimmy Swinson. the Carolinas light weight champ, and he believes he can nut him to sleep if he can get in the ring with him again. The mills about Shelby have fast baseball outfits this year, and the best angle about it is that the teams are made up of employes and home talent without hired players being roped in. Th$ fans are more inter ested in players they know and with whom they work, particularly when they can offer the brand of ball the local teams have been showing,. Last Saturday, if you noticed, four Shelby textile hurlers turned in ex cellently pitched games. Johnny Putnam twirled one of those un usual no-hit games for Ora mill against Cramerton. Sherrill Ham rick, for Shelby Mill, bested Kirk sey, of Ellenboro, in a mound duel. ' Big Boy” Peters, of the Lily team struck out 16 Newton batters, and iSipe, hook-ball artist of the Cleve land Cloth, dropped 14 McAdenviile batters by the wayside. In two games this season Sipe has whiffed i a total of 30 batters. Don't pass tip the chance of seeing one of these teams play this week. • • • • Again, according to reports. Shel-; by may have a baseball club in a semi-pro league. Pans at Forest City, Gastonia, Kings Mountain, and Spartanburg have been trying for sometime to organize a semi pro league for play this summer. This week it was learned that the strong Cleveland cloth mill will be able to enter a club in the circuit if the loop is formed. And the Ray onites will give the opposition a run for their money with two strong hurlers, a good fielding team and several Ruthian hitters. —RENN DRUM.

Junior Legion Baseball Team Wins Two Of Three Hard Games 2col24—JUNIOR LEA—sports Outfit Sponsored by Ex-Service Men Will Enter Junior World Series. The junior baseball team of the Shelby American Legion post will play the Cliffslde high school team in the Shelby high school park at 3:30 Friday aft ernoon. “The familiar cry of ‘batter up' is being heard these spring days from many boys in this community who are already crossing bats in practice that in time will lead up to the American Legion junior world series,” said Dr. B. M. Jarrett, ath letic officer, of Warren F. Hoyle post 82 here, who is urging all boys eligible to get to the game for a try out. “The local post of- the legion i> eager that this community make a good showing in the unselfish jun ior baseball series of the legion this season,” he said. Sponsoring a jun ior baseball team affords a project of service to America’s youth that every church, club or industrial con cern in this community can well ap prove. The legion conducts the junior baseball program to reach just as many boy^ as possible and to teach them good citizenship by learning discipline and to obey the rules of the game. “To get the most out of the com ing tournament the boys should be on the diamonds for regular prac tice. The boys cau help in advanc ing the program by familiarizing themselves with the rules govern ing the competition. "The junior baseball series Is na tional in scope. The goal for this season has been set as 500.000 boys. The American and National leagues of baseball contributed $50,000 this year, as in the preceding years, to help - defray the expenses of the series. The minor leagues are sup porting the program in many ways. Twelve regional tournaments, be tween states, and two sectionals, be tween regional champions, will be played before the east and west champions meet in the world series." "The tournament is such that the boys from this community will have an opportunity to go as far as their playing strength warrants toward winning the world crown, Pull in formation may be obtained from Dr. B.
