Hitting at opportune times won the
game for the Hatchetites. and hard hitting
at that Three triples. a double. and a
brace of singles was their record for the
contest Untimely errors by the local
boys endangered the game on several
occasions. but the team would take a
brace at these stages and pull the game
out Of the fire. Had Orrison and Camp
bell felded a little faster IN the eighth
al least two Of the Tar Heels would not
nave scored, as there were two good
chances for a double play.
Carr did the twirling for the Ratchet
ties, the southerners never being able 10
get more than one hit in any inning ex-
cept the eighth, when two doubles and
triple, coupled with an error and field
er's choice, netted four runs for them
1t was a slugging match pure and
simple. and North Carollna. slugged the
oftenest, but the bihs did not come when
they were most needed. nor did they 60
for as many bases as did the Hatchetites'
bingles. Campbell and Orrison were the
heavy men with the willow the former
getting a triple and a double. and the
latter a triple and a single. Campbell
and Montgomery. the rival second base
men, furnished the fielding features, both
playing all around the second cushion and
scoJping them up like veterans.
fhe Hatchetites victory over the Tar
Heels will give their stock quite a boost,
as the North Carolinians are reckoned
as being quite a formidable aggregation.
