Andy Holiday, who was switched
to the second batting position be-
cause of Joe Eessing's slump,
lined out a one-bagger also. Jim
Wilson lofted to right field, and
Quinn romped to third after the
catch. Holiday stole second, put
ting men on second and third
with one away. Hank Nesselrode
battered a hard infield grounder
which Quinn crossed the plate
on. Phil Shoffner singled over
the second, driving in Holiday
for the second run of the frame.
In the second Messing was
walked. John McFadden help
ed himself along to his second
win of the playoff by singing.
Jimmy Quinn walked, loading the
sacks. Andy Holiday lined \
grounder to short, which Fred
Muscumeci Tipped to second
base for a force out. Messing
scored the only tally of the stan
"a on this play.

Sanford put on their last scor-

Sanford put on their last scor-
ing spurge in the fourth. Joe
Messing, the first batter up,
slammed a 305-foot home run
over the left field fence. Bobby
Keane singled. McFadden sac
rificed Keane down. Quinn
singled, putting McFadden on
third. 1t was at this point Che
shire came in. Holiday hunted
in front of the plate, and Station
trapped Keane between third and
home. On the run down Keane
got by Station and Cheshire was
the only man left between the
Sanford shortstop and the plate.
On a throw from Steckel to
Cheshire, Cheshire dropped the
throw, Keane scoring. A red-hot
Cheshire whitfield Wilson, but in
tentionally walked Nesselrode.
With the sacks loaded, Cheshire,
still flared up because of his er-
ror, let 60 a wild pitch which
hit Schoffner on the head. This
forced in the sixth and final
run of the ball game.
Even though the Pirates are
behind now in the series, they
have a much better chance of
winning than Sanford. Roy Lamb
has had more rest than Bortz,
whom Wilmington smashed on
Friday. Should Lamb pitch the
same type ball Monday he did
at Sanford last Thursday, Will
mington can knot things. Then
on Tuesday, Station has Edens
ready to 60. Theimportant thing,
however, as Jim would say, is
to win tonight.
If Wilmington fans flood the
stadium. in the same manner
as they did Saturday when $500
packed the arena, the Pirate Of
.ficials had better have bleachers
on hand. Win or lose Monday,
the Pirates have played grand
ball this season and Wilmington
is proud of their performance.

MlZE SLAMS 18TH
AS DODGERS LOSE
NEW YORK Sent 2

NEW YORK, Sept. 7-@-
New York's booming home run
bats doomed the Brooklyn Dod-
gers for the second straight day
today as Willard Marshall, Bud
dy Kerr and Johnny Mize clouted
four-baggers good for six runs in
the Giants 7-6 conquest of the
National League leaders.
A bumper crowd of 50,638 at
the Polo Grounds saw the Giants
whip the Brooks to enable the
St. Louis Cardinals to chop down
the pace-setters' margin.
And they saw the Giants again
use their favorite weapon the
New Workers beat the Dodgers
with three homers yesterday - to
hurt Brooklyn's pennant chances.
The Dodgers, too, took ad-
vantage of the yawning stands
and smacked out three four
baggers to account for five of
their markers. Dixie Walker,
Cookie Lavagetto and pinch hit
ter Gene Hermanski connected
for the circuit.
Lavagetto and Hermanski hit
their homers in the eigth inning
off Larry Jansen, third N e W
York pitcher, to come within
one run of a tie, but Ken Trim
kle stepped in and stopped them
cold.
The Giants got after Clyde
King, first of five Brook hurl-
ers on Bobby Thompson's single,
runs on Bobby Thomson's single,
Mics run-scoring double a n d
Marshalls 35th homer.
Brooklyn got back in the game
in the second on Dixie Walkers
two-run homer only to have Kerr
rap a three-gun smash into the
left field sets for a 6-2 lead. Pee
Wee Reese's fly out with the
bases loaded in the seventh made
the count 6-3 but Mize walloped
his 10th four-bagger-and the
Giants 193rd of the year - in
the seventh for what proved to
be the winning run.
The Brooks threw 10 players
into the two hour and So minute
struggle. King was charged with
the loss, and Dave Koslo, New
York starter, gained credit for
his 18th victory.

Newcomer Sanderson Stars
In Wildcat Forward Wall

(180); and right halfback, Jim
my Piner.
Charlie Smith, who some of
the boys have nicknamed Choo-
Choo because of his speed, stood
out in last Fridays scrimmage.
His dashes through the line and
around the end created a smile
on Coach Brogden's face. Jim
Gibson and Jimmy Piner, the
line crushing twins, wrecked the
second string line, and Irwin Gore
showed marked improvement at
the signal calling post. Star
reserve was Linwood Grissom,
who broke away for a 90-yard
touchdown gallop against the
third string during the scrim-
mage. Mike Austin's taking al
the second string quarterback
post caused excitement from the
60-odd spectators who came out
for practice.
A. c. Gregg and Johnny Crow
ley are the surprise packages the
four-man Wildcat coaching staff
has come up with this season,
Gregg can get started faster
than any boy on the Cat squad
even Charlie Smith can OUTRAGE
him in a distance trek. Crow.
ley's line plunging has been as
good if not better than that oil
Gibson and Piner in the past
scrimmages. The big red-haired
halfback might even beat Smith,
Homer Brewer, and Linwood
Grissom out for the left halfback
position on the first team if he
keeps cracking for eight and
nine yards at every carry.

Whether they are temporary or
not, shifts in the first string line
of New Hanover High school
took place Saturday afternoon as
Coaches Leon Brogden, Tom Da-
Wis, and Bunny Hines prepared
their 35-man Wildcat squad for
Fridays football opener with
Wadesboro at Legion Stadium.
Lloyd Honeycutt, whom Brog-
den has been changing from end
to guard from time to time, end
ed up at right end and a 1916
Junior Varsity star, H. l.. San
derson, took over Honeycutt's
left guard position in. the first
string front wall. Sanderson has
spanked for the reserves since
scrimmages began a week ago,
and that is undoubtedly one
reason why. Skipper Brogder
moved him up Saturday. Weigh
ing approximately 1876 pounds,
Sanderson will give the MINIS
line an average weight Of over
1875 pounds. Honeycutt wa:
switched to aid in the downfielo
blocking, which has been def
nitely weak.
AS things stand now the start
ing lineup for the Wildcats reads:
left end, Linwood Taylor (190)
left tackle, Bill Kuhn (216) left
guard, H. l.. Sanderson (185)
center, Bobby Haas (212); right
guard, Doc Venters (185) right
tackle, Deck Jordan )215); right
end, Lloyd Honeycutt C75)
quarterback, Irwin Gore (178)
left halfback, Charlie Smith
Q6O); fullback, Jim Gibson

Today's game was full of sur
prises. Everyone expected to see
the Pirates, ahead of Sanford
in pitching power, start Louis
Cheshire. Cheshire had three
days rest and was definitely the
logical choice. Manager Station
decided on Jim Stephenson, how
ever, but regretted the move after
four innings of play as Sanford
piled up six rapid counters.
Cheshire was rushed in to finish
up the fatal fourth inning and
held the Spiners scoreless for
the remainder of the encounter.
The Spinners jumped on Ste
phenson in the very first chapter
for two runs. Jimmy Quinn
started things off with a single.

WHEDBEE TAMES
DELC0 10 TO 0

Jimmy Whedbee, the outstand-
ing pitcher of the Cape Fear
league, hurled his 18th win of
the season over Acme-Delco
yesterday afternoon, 100.
Whedbee, flinging as never be-
fore this campaign, whipped the
Delco outfit easily, striking out
six and walking one while turn
ing his brilliant victory.
Only four hits were registered
off the fire-ball highlander, who
teaches at Hemenway School
during the winter, and they were
slammed by Workman, B. Bull
ard, Marks, and Wehrhahn Of
the Delco team.
Leading hitters Of Hamstead
were Linwood Rowan with two
triples and a single in five ap-
pearances at the plate, Tinkey
Rogers with two for five, and
Ramp Smith with two for five.
The Hampstead win elimi-
mates Acme-Delco from the Cape
Fear league playoff which be-
gins next Sunday. The billings
of the playoff are as follows:
Hampstead VS.. Masonboro at
Hampstead; Pepsi-Cola VS..
| Winter Park at Winter Park.
Manager Bill Eubank, who
piloted the Hampstead aggre-
cation to the Cape Fear pen
nant, deserves a pat on the
back for his splendid work this
season. Eubank said last night.
however, "our boys deserve
the credit for their grand playing
this summer" Sports fans will
be watching Eubank and his
Hampstead club in the playoff.
All other games in the Cape
Fear circuit were rained out.

3-2 edge in the series.
All Tobacco State league at
tendance records are expected to
be smashed Monday night at
Wilmington, when the Spinners
and Pirates return to the Ameri-
can Legion Stadium for the sixth
game of the series. The Whining
ton team will probably call on
big Roy Lamb, who lost a 81
pitching duel to McFadden last
Thursday, to even up the series
for the BUGS. Sanford. who can
snatch the series with a VIC

Lefty George Bortz to the hill.
