THE UNION RECORDER. M1LLEDGEVILLE. GA- AUGUST 17. 1033
SP^ r ts
SAM EVANS, JR.
TOO BAD, MR. PRUITT
“Big Boy" Pruitt almost carved
his monicker in the hall of fame
here last week and would have prob
ably but for Benny Rothitein, Mil-
ledgeville’r slugging first baseman.
For eight innings Pruitt let Milledge
ville down without a hit. He went
into the last of the nineth, doubt
less, with visions of a no hit no run
game coursing through l.is mind.
Life seemed sweet. It beckoned to
fame and fortune. A golden vista
opened before him. He set his foot
upon the sunlit road. BUT. alas, the
glory was not to be hi*. For Benny
Rothstein's bat. which has spelled
the downfall of more than one
pitcher, crashed a long double
against jhe center-field wall bring
ing in the tying run. Dreams of
fame faded into the distance. All it
means ir. baseball history now ip
“losing pitcher, Pruitt", which in
baseball summaries is generally fol
lowed by "time of game 1:45".
After all. though. Pruitt did pitch
a wonderful game and deaerv
high praise. Foster Rhodes pitching
for the Blues also exhibited a mas
terful pitching arm by blanking th
Card.* for eight consecutive innings
after giving up one run in the first.
It was a gnat ball game and prob
ably the bes: ever seen in the local
park.
LETS KEEP UP THE OLD FICHT
Three weeks ago Mlledgeville had
the strongest teem upon the field
that the Georgia State League
know since its beginning back in
May. Today, the team, weakened by
the lose of many valuable players,
is in such poor condition (feat if some
movements towards rehabilitation ire
not made soon, it will speedly drop
to the cellar. Miliedgeville offered
an array of brilliant baseball play
ers who were adept both at bat and
on the field. Baseballers such as
Julian Foster, Charlie Treadaway,
Ralph West and Tommy Turk, drew
a multitude of attendance by their
spectacular fielding and heavy hit
ting. Now they’re gone ' and Mil-
ledgeville is losing games with alarm
ing regularity. With the exit of these
players, the Blues have lost
ability to overcome leads of any
where from six to ten runr. The
old batting punch is gone.
GARDEN CLUB TO MEET
On the regular fourth Wednesday
(August 23ru), next week, the Gar
den dob will have a picnic with
tho-ie members acting as hostesses
that have not done so during the

probable that the picinc will be held

son. chairman. Mrs. M. M. Paries,
Mias Nora Cone, Mrs. Charles Fow
ler, Mrs. J. J- Jones, Mrs.
j Bass, and Mrs. Roger Swint.
But Wallace Butts and Benny: The Garden Club is looking for-
Rothstein have not given up. They) ward to a splendid year, and in
are mak rg every effort possible to early article will be the names cf
secure additional players. They have j those who are to plan for the Fall
prospects in view. There are still flower exhibits,
good players on the team, and if
few deals, now in the making, come
through Wallie and Benny will again
nut the Bluer atop the Georgia State
League. We have faith in Wallace,
Benny and the other officials of the
club, and if the people of the to»n
will continue to hack them up, we’ll
emerge on top yvt.
