MORNING S GAME AT WELDON
Exactly at 1905 O. clock Smoky
Smith walked to the mound, amid
the cheers of thousand Weldon
ties. Smith was their hero, the
only pitcher to defeat Roanoke
Rapids-R Rosemary this season.
Candy Ball Smith led off for
Roanoke Rapids, grounding out
second to first. Bill Towe then
walked up, looked hard at Smith
and received a free pass to first.
Then it was that the Weldon in
field showed its class. Correll
grounded to short, Al johnson
accepted the chance, tossed it to
Minter at second, who in turn
caught the fleet Correll before he
y got to first.
%The second frame was quite
different. The triple R boys
opened up the fire works and
sent two runners across the rub
ber. Spikes cracked out a pretty
single, Smoky hit ]. D. johnson
with a wild pitch, and both were
advanced by H. Johnson's sacri-
flee. At this juncture the We'll
don infield got excited and made
two errors which sent the run
ners in home. Weldon tightened
up in the third and the side was
down by easy outs. A single, two
sacrifices and another single in
fthe fourth carried Spikes around
or the third score of the game.
All this time Hoo Doc Sanderson
was pitching air tight ball for
R. r. R. He allowed Weldon
only one hit during the first five
innings, while the team behind
him played errorless ball. In the
sixth he lightened up and two
hits were garnered off his deliv-
cry. these coupled with a sacri-
flee and wild pitch gave them
their first tally. Weldon's activ-
ity was followed in the next
frame by double dose of the
same medicine on the part of the
3 Rs. Smoky Smith gave up a
single and a double, the last hits
to be made off his delivery dur
ing the game, which, when Cal
vert errored CorrelPs grounder,
were turned into runs.
Weldon made a desperate effort
in the last of the ninth to stage a
rally, but one run was the best
that she could do and she was
forced to taste defeat at the
hands of her bitter, yet friendly
rivals.

coca-cola crew ate out of his
hands for the remainder of the
ten inning thriller.
Both Shields and Dempster
were at their best, the struggle
soon desolved into a pitchers bat
tie between the two great south
paws. Both had worlds of stuff
on their offerings and the batters
found them difficult to touch.
Shields stuck out nine r. R. R.
batters while Dempster did the
unusually by returning thirteen
Weldon batters by the one-two-
three route.
Roanoke Rapids Rosemary
evened the count in the fifth
when two errors by Calvert
placed both Turner and English
on the paths. Sacrifices by
Dempster and C. B. Smith and
Bill Towe's pretty single sent
them both safely across the rub
ber. Not yet satisfied, the 3R
team went Weldon one better in
the next frame. Everette Spikes
singled, stole second and raced
home on Pee Wee Turner's single.
Wood, Weldon's steady first
sacker again tied the score in the
! eighth when he landed on one
for a circuit clout. This swat set
the stands in an uproar. Sup
porters of both teams were yell
ing for victory. Twice each team
went to the bat and returned to
the field without a score. Then
the enevitable break came. 1t
was in the last half of the tenth,
Two men were out and J. d.
Johnson was on first as result
of AIS tumble, when the mighty
Harvey Johnson walked to the
platter determined to end the
gruelling contest. Shields dis
gusted at the error, made the
fatal mistake of tossing him
hard straight one down the old
pie alley. Harvey leaned against
it with all his fast ebbing
strength and polled out the great
estest line drive over the left
field wall ever seen in Rosemary
Park.

Locals Defeat Littleton

The Littleton club came down
last Monday to engage in nine
innings of baseball with the
local artist. Wee Willie and his
Littletonites started off with a
rush. For five innings they al
most made US believe that the
horseshoe they carried in their
hip pockets was to cause the
downfall of our all aggregation,
Fogleman's low hooks evaded the
bats of the one Triple R men in
the early frames, to the extent
that cnly four hits were garner
ed off his delivery. Shorty Gray
was fielding his position to great
style, Perkins was right in there
at second. The score stood Lit

innings and supper when Hoo boo
walked to the plate and looked Big
Boy Richardson square in the
eyes. The giant Cop hooked one
over to Sanderson's liking and he
sent it out in the field with the
letters hit marked all over it.
Smith came across with another
of his timely hits and sent him to
second. Bill Towe popped up to
the pitcher. Bob CorreR just
couldn't 90 hitless so he pasted
out single which brouht both

outclassed them in the field.
Dempster pitched a bearcat game
and save for the home runs by
Champagne and Nealan, had the

The Police Force began the
scoring in the first half of the
second when Nealan after get

star was winding up. The aetivi-
ty on the part Of the cops was
evidently a signal for the Triple

sacrifice, made third on a single
by English, and Dempster sent
him home BY pretty sacrifice.

Spikes followed with Texas

J D. Johnson walked to the plate,

beauty, and landed several yards

Champagne and Nealan, being
Of kindly nature, saved TIE bets
of many fans by polling out two
homers in the eighth. This late
rally could not overcome the
consistent playing OF the locals
and the cops We're forced to taste
defeat at the hands of the little
boys just out of college.
The Triple K team repeated the
performance of Friday plus a
little more Saturday afternoon
when they beat the cops 4 to j.
The harmonious music of the
Rosemary band and the gay colors
of the feminine enthusiasts added
great deal to the spirit Of the
hard fought game The Norfolk
aggregation presented as formid-
able lineup as one desires to see
in amateur ball, and the locals
were forced to put out all that
they held up the old sleeve in order
to take them into camp. Hoo-Doo
Sanderson showed what little
fellow can do for a big one when
he struck out Home Run Cam
pagne twice in succession. San
derson was hooking the apple at
all angles and the big policeman
seemed at a loss in the effort to
find 1t. Detective Rhodes made
the discovery in the third, how.
ever, and after taking a healthy
crack at it with his night club,
paraded around the block to head
quarters.
Both teams rode safely thru
the initial frame but the newt
able break came in the second
when Champagne doubled, went
to third on a wild pitch and
crossed the rubber as Hornoerger
singled. The R-R-R crew evened
up in their half; Johnson made
first when Hornberger errored
his grounder, then Pee Wee
Turner lifted one to the center
field fence for a double, the first
baseman reached up for his cap,
tucked his head and lit a rag for
home.
The cops scored once each in
the third and fourth, but never
more. A singie by Smith, an |
error, a sacrifice, and English's
pretty two bagger which lacked
only few inches of being
homer. again put R-R-R on
equal terms with the force. For
.hree and one half innings both
'quads struggled to take the lead.

DETROIT. July 1S.-Delegates to
the thirty-f1rst annual convention Of
the International Walther League to-
day will select the city for the 1924
convention anl elect officers for the
coming year. a request has been
received from Gov. J. A. o. Preus
and from the mayor of st. Paul
to select that city for the next con-
vention. San Francisco is the other
contender for the next meeting.
Delegates adopted resolutions con-
demning Darwinism, modern social
conditions and divorce at their ses-
sion late yesterday.
In the matter of the controversy
between the so-called fundamental
lists and the liberals the resolutions
passed by the delegates asserted that
the Bible was the inspired word of
God. whose inerrancy not only in
matters of doctrine, but also in any
other statement no matter to which
field OF knowledge it refers, is un-
questioned"
The convention went on record as
maintaining that
we believe the book of Genesis
and the first page of the Bible to
be Gods own record of the creation
of the world, holding this position
as a point of faith. We most en-
phatically disapprove, therefore. Of

matter in what guise they are pre-
sented and by whom they are ad-
vocated. =. We particular
