'Lack Of Hitting
In Glutches -
} BY EDWIN POPE
Sports Editor
’ About the best you could
say Tuesday for the clutch
hitting of the Georgia Bull
dogs was that they distrib
{ uted their fly balls well and
|shuw<3d no partiality to any
one outfielder.
Only once did the Geor
gia squad take advantage
lof the breaks; that was
when they sent three men
scurrying home in the ninth
to tie it up. Alabama had
! enough hitting in the tight
spots — and the tenth was
) about as tight as things get
—to rock out a 9-6 South
eastern Conference victory
over Georgia, her second in
two days. .
The win sent the Tide to first
place in the legaue.
Outhit Tide
The Bulldogs outhit the visi
tors 13-9 and Dick “Lefty” Miles,
coming in for Jim Chastain in
the second, pitched himself a
whale of a ball-game. With sup
port at the plate, he would have
received credit for a triumph.
Two first-inning homers over
the right-field fence by J. Y.‘,
Byrd and Herb Chapman off’
Chastain spelled an early doom !
for the freshman’s twirling, After‘
| the second inning, the Tiders had
a 5-0 lead. Miles held ’Bama un
til the tenth, giving up only six
[hits fn the meantime.
. Georgia missed her first big
lopportunity in the second when:
J. W_ Spruill fanned and Pete
Gould grounded out with Chub‘
| Jenkine and Morton Smith on
Ibase. JAgain in the fourth, with!
Smith on third and Spruill on'
second, Gould, Miles and Virgil |
!Bartlett went out 1-2-3. Maricich!
and Jordan fouled with the bases
loadéd in the seventh. The Bull
' dogs were embarrassed again in
the eighth when Smith and
Spruill died on the sacks by
Miles’ strikeout. ‘
Hectic Ninth
The ninth was high-time to tie
the ball-game. Virgil Bartlett
led off with a single, Billy Hen
derson followed with a double,
Eli Maricich walked, and Tommy
Jordan singled both Bartlett and
Henderson home. Maricich was
nipped at the plate when Jenkins
laid down a sacrifice bunt, but
Jordan scored on Blackie Bellis’
wild pitch to mark up another
before Spruill whiffed to end the
stanza.
With the count knotted, 6-6, in
the tenth, Gambrell drew a walk,
Morrow lived when Miles’ pitch
to first struck him in the back,
Chapman tripled both of them
home. Bob Still came off thci
bench to supplant Miles. Mizer
any doubled Chapman in, and
Bill Cooper came in to the
mound for Still, subduing the
Tide without further trouble.
~ The damage was done, though.
Gould, reaching first on Peitus’
error, was thrown out at second
when Bone, pinch-hitting for
Cooper, hit to Rutledge. Bartlett
and Henderson flied out to ter
minate the hectic affair.
The Bulldogs play Georgia
Tech here Friday afternoon at 4
o'clock and meet the Yellow
Jackets in Atlanta Saturday.
Friday's tilt is next to the last
home game for the Bulldogs, the
last one coming Saturday, May
31, when Tech plays here again.

be shown tonight at American
Legion Cabin, Post No. 20.

Plans Underway
For Gity !
Softhall Loop
Plans are now underway to
form another city-wide softball
league. The league will again be
sponsored and run off by the Ath
ens Recreation Department.
An important meeting for all
persons interested including team
sponsors, managers, etc. will be
‘held tomorrow night (Thursday)
at 8:00 at the recreation center
located on the corner of Pulaski
and Hancock streets. It is im
perative that each team desiring
to enter the league should have
a representative present at this
meting, ‘
The legaue last year produced
some keen competition throughout
and it is hoped that the one this‘
summer will do the same. Several
teams have already expressed a
desire to enter and it seems certain
that all of the allotted places will
be filled shortly.

Athens VFW, Walton Mills Souare Off
Aoainst Each Other, Here Sunday At 3
Athens VFW and Walton Mills, the two most formid
able opponents Whitehall has to contend with, square off
against each other on the University of Georgia’s Ag Hill
diamond, Sunday afternoon at 3 p. m.
Athens will be seeking its!
fourth straight win while the |
Walton nine will be after its
third straight. Athens meetsl
'Whitehall Sunday week, and
Walton Mills will meet them for |
the second time on June 22nd.
The Walton squaq lost its sea
son’s opener to Whitehall 9-6.
Athens will have to be on their
toes to win this tilt, as Walton
is undoubtedly the strongest team
yet engaged, either in league
games or exhibitions,
The pitcher for the VFW will
probably be Flay “Lefty” Betts,
since he hasn’t hurled since Sat
urday, when the VFW droppeg a
Iseven-inning bout to the Georgia
“B” squad 8-5. |
If Betts doesn’t start, Knoxl
Bellingham, who started last
Sunday’s game in Watkinsville_l
may start. Cecil Wilkes, VFW
thirq baseman, will be on handl
for a relief role. Wilkes is a
righthander, and was credited
with the win against Watkins
ville.
. Looking at the other games in
brief, the league co-leaders and
defendine champs, Whitehall, en
tertain, Mallison-Braided Cord in
their last loop game before meet
ing Athens here,
Whitehall will probably piteh
Chappelle Tate or ‘Dad’ Ruark.
However, Waillie Roberts may
start Ruark off and let him stay
unless the need arises to take him
out. Chappelle Tate will be ready
to go against the VFW in their
meeting here. A newcome- to the
Independent League, Jack Clif
ton, has been added to White
hall’s roster and according to
Learue Secretary and Treasurer,
T. Bd Williams, under the rule
governing eligibility of playe"s,
Clifton will be eligible to play in
the game of May 25th.
Clifton May Pitch
Clifton, a lefthander and also
a pitcher for Thomson is nl’%
likely to get the call than "is
Tate. A brother of Bob Clifton,, |
e former Georgia hurler, has
been on the VFW roster since the
beginning of the season, Howev
i er, a brother-versus-brother
pitching duel is not expected. .
| The older Clifton pitched for
Georgia some nine yea"s ago.
| Records show that he was a keg

Hats off to Mr. Connie Mack, the grand old man of
baseball.
The 84-year-old gentleman, now in his 47th year as
manager of the Philadelphia Athletics, is quietly answer
ing his critics by giving the Athletic fans the best brand
of baseball they have seen in more than a dozen years.
His much maligned Mackmen
have won six of their last eight
games including a 7-6 conquest
of the mighty Bob Feller and
the Cleveland Indians last night.
Mr. Mack has been the target
of much abuse in recent years.
He has been accused of conduct
