POCOMOKE
TEAM PLAYING
GOOD BALL
Boys Win Five Of Their Eight
Games Played Under The
New Manager
MAURICE DUGAN ACCEPTS
JOB AS BALTIC. POLICE

Those baseball fans who were eag-
erly awaiting with much anticipation
as to whether Yves Kingdom, newly
acquired manager of the Pocomoke
Ball Club, could pull them out of their
losing streak, have nothing more to
worry about. He has the club IN
the best form that they have been in
this year, with his timely advice and
hustling, fighting spirit. The boys
had acquired losing complex, from
which there seemed no let-up, but one
would do we'll to visit the local park
to see the difference in the team.
Due to the inability of Owner
Ehlers to acquire good short stop
at the present time, Manager King
don has been playing at Sec
ond base, and playing a very credit
able game of ball. Hall has been
shifted to short stop and covers
lot of territory in that position.
If it were possible for Owner Ehlers
to sign up about two more pitchers
like Rehbein, they would soon be IN
the first division. The pitcher is
from Baltimore and has been playing
with Buck Glass, until July 4th when
he started his first game with the
locals against Salisbury at the Sails
bury Park. In this game he only al
lowed six hits and but for the bad
"breaks" of the game would have
won easily. On last Saturday night
he iourneyed to Dover with the. locals,
and pitched six hit ball to help his
team defeat them IA. On Sunday
afternoon against fredericksburg, he
went in with the score tied in the
tenth inning, to get credit for his Sec
ond win in two days, when Schluter
knocker homer with two out. On
Wednesday night he only allowed the
fredericksburg team 9 scattered hits
and forced Manager Moss to fly out
in one inning with the bases loaded
and struck out three men in the
ninth inning after his Teammates had
forged ahead in the 9th, to defeat
fredericksburg GA.
William Boyce pitched very good
game of ball for the locals on Mon
day night when the locals defeated
Milford 7-6. He allowed 10 hits but
bore down in the pinches.
Pocomoke suffered a setback this
week in the loss of Maurice Dugan,
centerfielder, one of the best in the
league, when he asked for his release
to accept a position on the Baltimore
City Police force. His place will be
hard to fill as he was very fast in
the outer garden and his batting was
improving daily. 1t has been report
ed that Marine, who played in this
league last year, a very good out
fielder will be signed to take the
place of Dugan.
Since Yves Kingdom has been man.
ager of the local team they have
won five of their eight games, in
Guiding Wednesday nights game. On
Friday night Dover plays in this park
at 8:15 and on Saturday night Milford
plays here at 8:15.
It will be we'll for you fans who
have not seen the team in action since
the new manager took charge, to pay
a visit to the local ball park.

BLOODY HAR[AN'S
CLAIM DISPUTED
Floyd Prosecutor Styles
Own County as Most
Sanguinary.
BY the Associated Press.

|
PRESTONBURG. KY, July 2l.-
Commonwealth Attorney o. c. Hall,
announcing he would ask for a change
of venue in six Floyd County murder
cases, said the county was "the blood
lest soil for its size on the Western
Hemisphere"
The cases, Mr.. Hall said, were the
worst in the county's history" which
records the Staying of five men in a
school trustee election shooting affray
at Prater Creek in July, 1898.
Mr.. Hall said the cases included
those of Herbert Spradlin, charged
with numbering Green Howard last
May while Howard was awaiting
appeal of his conviction on a charge
of Staying Spradlin's brother Earl
Howard was shot six times on a
street here.
"a Murders Annually.
Mr.. Hall said the county's murder
toll of approximately "a annually in
recent years was mo credit" to him
although he had obtained convictions
and life sentences on murder charges
of 81 persons in his four years as
prosecutor.
Saying he wanted to deter would-be
slayers in the county, he added:
If the first four Of these 81 mur-
derers had been given the death pen
atty the last so slayings wouldn't have
happened"
Sixty-five per cent of the convic-
tions were of Floyd Countians, he said,
and the others were in Knott County,
the other county in his district. He
said he would seek to have the six new
murder cases tried in Knott County
in September.
His reason for wanting changes of
venue, Mr.. Hall explained, was the
double difficulty of finding jurors not
kin to the defendants and not opposed
to the death penalty.
Close to Harlan.
Floyd is an Eastern Kentucky
mountain county of approximately
$4,000 population.
1t is about 20 miles directly north
of the nationally notorious bloody
Harlan" as that coal field county was
nicknamed when Senate Civil Lib
critics Committee investigation focused
public attention on its record of slay-
ings and violence.
OF the accused persons Mr. Hall
named, four, he said. were at liberty
on bond. In addition to Spradlin he
named Bob johnson and Ed Gear
heart, jointly indicted, and Tom Layne
Held without bond, Mr. Hall said
were Matt Jones, recently returned
here from Colorado to face trial on a
charge of killing Police Chief Levi Hall
of Mcdowell last year. Albert Cole and
Tim Jones.
