weakened by the heat, was credited
with his seasons sixth victory.

0-HIT" HEARN
PROBABLE HURLER
FOR KHAKI BOYS
By BILL McILWAIN

Two of the South strongest
semi-pro baseball teams will clash
Wednesday night when the North
Carolina Shipbuilding Company
nine and the Camp Davis Blue
Brigade lock horns at the Amerl-
can Legion Stadium at $3.50 pm.
Jim "Shanty'' Hearn, giant
Highlander for the Brigade who
has hurled 20 innings of scoreless
ball and IA hitless frames, is the
likely starting pitcher for the Sol
diers, with Lefty Louis Cheshire
opposing him for the Boatbuilders.
Everything points toward the
games being one of the best to
take place in Wilmington in a long
game against the powerful Fort
Bragg team recently and followed
up with a five inning hitless turn
on the slab against the Maxton Air
Base club Wednesday. The former
Georgia Tech star has allowed but
one run in his last rs innings on
the hill and this marker was an
Waearned one. During this spec
tacular streak he has sent 40 bats
men to the bench on third strikes.
These figures do not include Camp
Davis game with Fort Bragg in
Fort Bragg yesterday.
Cheshire also dabbled in the no.
hit channels by working 6 hitlesS
heats against Seymour johnson
Field in his last start. The big
lefty is reported ready for We'd
resday nights engagement, so
some potent mound work seems
in the offing.
The Boatbuilders eked a thrill
ing 4-3 win from the AA horsehid-
ers in the Yards opening game
several weeks ago. Since then the
Davis team has roared to victories
over the Maxton Air Base, Camp
Pickett, Camp Butner and Fort
Bragg. The Shipyard club has reg
istered triumphs over the Rocky
Mount All-Stars and Seymour
J johnson Field.
Shuny Britain, husky ex-Cincin-
natl catcher, makes his initial ap-
pearance in the Shipyard lineup
today against Seymour johnson
Field and will be behind the plate
in Wednesday nights setto. The
presence of the larrupmg Brit
tain should add greatly to the al
ready strong Shipyard team.
