Wilmington and Warsaw, two
teams which are staging a see
saw battle for second place in the
Tobacco State league, exchanged
places in the standings again yes
terday as the Pirates lost to Gin
ton, 3 to /, while the Red Sox
were edging out Red Springs, 7 to
5. The Sox now stands one-half
game ahead of the Buccaneers.
A big seven inning rally in the
six inning gave the Warsaw ag-
gregation the game last night. Up
to that frame the Red Springers
were rolling merrily along with a
Juicy four run lead. Gallo twirled
the win, giving up Is hits, walking
three, and whiting five.

from center fielder Dixon to Sec

route. Zmjewski, the Lumberton
starter, was relieved by Robert
in the eighth, while Smith went
out in favor of Koch in the ninth.

They just didn't show up, that's
all. Yesterdays scheduled mems
singles and doubles tennis matches
between Wilmington and Morehead
City didn't come off. The reason
Morehead City didn't show up.
Thad Watts, president of the Viii
mington club, said that according
to the rules of the Eastern Caro-
linas Tennis association the game
is forfeit. Nevertheless, Watts said
that he was in no position to say
whether the matches would be
forfeit or postponed until a later
date.
The matches were originally
slated for the Robert Strange
courts at 3 p. m. yesterday. After
the Morehead City club failed to
make an appearance. Watts tried
to make telephone communica-
tons with the team captain, but
was unsuccessful. Watts said that
in all probability the Morehead
City team expected to encounter
rain and decided not to make the
trip.
At any rate another game is
scheduled for Sunday at 2 p. m.
here. Wilson will be seeking an
other victory in a full mems and
