Good sportsmanship is very
evident in our fine Central
Carolina League. As an example,
an almost infallible rule
in the league is that when any
player produces a homer, he
is greeted with open arms and
a handshake by his team
mates when he reaches home
plate.
On the night of August 16,
it was different. McAllister,
the Ware Shoals player,
busted one over the palings,
but none of his buddies came
up to greet him. So, just to
show his heart was in the
right place, Clinton's big
catcher, Roberts, thrust out
his hand in a hearty handshake.
A real good sport!

A recent fine movie shown
in Clinton, "The Winning
Team." featured the great
Grover Cleveland Alexander,
a wonderful pitcher of former
days. This picture showed a
part of his military life as
a sergeant in World War I.
It will interest many to
know that one of the Cavaliers'
strongest supporters,
Dugas Copeland. at Blakely
JDurion s, was unuti mm in
his artillery battery. He is a
threat admirer of the departed
comrade and often refers to
him as he knew him in the
service and h i s baseball
record.

Clinton is so situated on
a ridge that a shower of rain
falling on the post office
district of town is divided.
Part of it eventually reaches
the Enoree River and part
goes into the Saluda River
where it remains separated
until it reunites where the
rivers converge down near
Columbia.
