THE BANNER-HERALD, K ATHENS, GEORGIA
John Gimma Bows In Upset;
Final Round Set Saturday
Top-seeded Albert Jones, Georgia tennis coach, and
fourth-ranked Luke Rushton, ex-Presbyterian College star
now in summer school here, reached the semifinals of the
Athens City men’s singles here Thursday afternoon, but
third-seeded John Gimma bowed in an upset to 18-year-old
Merritt Pound, jr.
Pound, No. 4 man on the Geor
gia varsity this past season as a
freshman, played brilliantly to
topple Gimma, six-foot-three-inch
slugger and No. 1 man on the Bull
dog varsity this year, 3-6, 6-4,
6-4.
Jones was hard-pressed to trim
Bob Smith of Waycross, No. 2
man on the Bulldog varsity, 6-4,
8-6.
Rushton, looking like the dark
horse of the tournament, was too
experienced for Danny Huff, Ath
ens Junior champion, 6-4, 6-1, in
a well-played match.
Second-seeded Dan Magill jr,.
was leading Dr. Gene Odum, of
the University faculty and form
er University of North Carolina
player, 6-0, 2-1 when the match
was postponed due to leg cramps
of Dr. Odum, who: earlier in the
afternoon had defeated former
Georgia player Andy Trimble, 2-6,
6-2, 6-C, in a grueling match, Ma
gill, eariler in the afternoon eli
minated veteran Ed Hodgson, 6-1,
6-0.
Other results Thursday saw
Horace Thom beat Billy Michael,
6-0, 6-0, in the junior men’s sing
les. In mers doubles, Dr. Gerald
Huff and son, Danny, defeated Dr.
James Edges Amvets
In Municipal Thriller
A brilliant, last inning relief performance by Ukele Cape
enabled Charlie James to down a stubborn Amvet crew,
8-7, in Municipal League softball action last night at the
Legion Field. ;
The James boys were nursing
a slim one-run margin in the top
of the last inning when Cape was
called on to put out the fire. He
came on with one man on base,
and although he walked two men
in his brief stay on the mound,
he struck out the side to end the
game.
The Amvets jumped to an early
lead, as they blasted out three hits,
which teamed with three walks
and an error, to give them a six
run lead in the initial frame.
Donald Carnes started for Char
lie James, but was removed in
favor of J. B. Carter in the first
inning. After the first frame was
over, Carter held the Amvets score
less unitl the sixth inning when
L. C. England banged out a home
run.
PLAYOFF GAME TONIGHT
Tonight’s Municipal League
game pits Sam Smith against
Charlie James in the champion
ship playoff for first half hon
ors. Probable starters are Don
ald Epps for Sam Smith and
Uke Cape for Charlie James.
The winner of this game will
be declared first half winners,
as the two squads were tied at
the end of the regular season.
Game time is 8 p. m. at the
Legion Field.
Aubry Simmons went all the
way for the Amvets, giving up
seven hits, walking three, and
striking out four.
After the Amvets had acquired
their early lead, it steadily dwind
led as Charlie James pushed ac
cross two runs in each of the sec
ond and third innings, and then
exploded for four tallies in the
sixth.
Carnes, who moved to third base
after being relieved, led the hit
parade for the James squad with
three base knocks in as many trips
to the plate. Clarance Fitzpatrick
rapped out three safeties for the
lost cause.
This tilt was the second game
in the last half of Municipal Lea
gue play. There are more" games
scheduled in this concluding half
than in the initial one, as each
team will meet every other lea
gue squad three times, instead of
twice.
