Davis invaded Fort Bragg and met
the strong Personnel Center nine
who is rated as the second best
service team in the state, and after
seven scoreless innings the Bragg
men pushed a run across to de-
feat them 10.
Sparkling the infield play at all
times was first baseman Sgt.
Charles "Chuck" Beasley who
handled 70 chances while only hav-
ing one miscue in the six games.
Captain Ken Kavanaugh who has
taken over the second base job
while team captain Steve Fisses in
on furlough has been playing great
ball and pounding the ball hard
for extra base hits when the sacks
were occupied. At the short-stop
new conner to the team is CPL
Dick Sheahon, has added punch
to the middle of the diamond and
has made twin killings sure shot.
On third base is the reliable Gin
Gaspari who has been playing first
class ball for the Davis nine right
from the first game of the season
and who is always dangerous with
the willow.
In the outer gardens Camp Davis
has what can be classed as the best
trio in the State. In left field is
blond Pete Kramer who is a 300
hitter at the plate and a strong
defensive player. In the middle is
hard-hitting, swift Babe Demario,
while the right field is taken care
of by another new conner, Bill
Martin who in six games with the
club has banged out nine hits. He
presents a strong arm at all times.
