C, Thursday, April 15, 1948 Number 16 Clinton Mills to Have Strong Ball Club in Mid-State League TEAM HEADED BY GREENE AS MANAGER Three Games To Be Played Each Week At Night. Improved Pork Ready for Use. The Mid-Stdte textile league will raise the curtain on the ’48 season on April 27, the schedule calling for 50 games to be played at night, with a fast brand of baseball expected. The league's opening is of special interest here, since the Clinton Cot ton Mills and Joanna Cotton Mills, Goldville, have teams in the loop. The other four teams are Brandon of Woodruff, Riverdale of Enoree, Laurens Mills, and Mills Mill No. 2 oS Woodruff. The Clinton Mills team, set with a newly-equipped paNc and enthusi astic backing, is ready for the league opening under the direction of Man ager Yonnie Greene, a veteran pro and semi-pro athlete. Under th£ direction of P. S. Bai ley, official of the mills, Clinton ex pects to have a park second to none, equipped with lights, dressing and shower rooms and a seating capacity of 3,000. Approximately $30,000 worth of improvements are being made to the park, it is stated. Manager Greene says that his line up is about complete for the open ing. In Clarence Millwood and ‘•Livvy” Livingston he has two ex cellent catchers. Millwood comes from Bessemer City, N. C., where he caught and managed last season in the Western Carolina league of that state. Livingston caught for Newberry last summer and is rated as a heavy hitter. ‘ . On the mound the Clinton club will have Monk Raines, the Colum bia hurler and PC student who last year was named to the collegiate all-state nine and pitched for Whit mire in the Mid-State. Another PC hurler is also in the fold with the 'signing of Townsend. Also there is Greene', from Spar- Itanburg, who won 12 and dropped Jfou’r last' season, and two' former Clemsori chunkers. Lefty Martin and Red McGee, who are looking good. Howard Harvey, a Wofford star who pitched for Pacolet last summer and won four playoff games in the East ern Carolina loop, completes the group. At first will be Manley Runyan from Shelby, N. C., who fields well and is a fair hitter. Jesse Boyce, a Clinton product and Clemson grad uate, is at second and will attempt to equal his 1947 hitting mark of .343, Bus Huffstetler, who played for Greenwood of the Central Carolina ; last season, will be at third. Buddy Sanders, who hit 16 hom- ;ers for Whitmire last season, will patrol one garden—spot, while Choc Burnette, a PC student who is fast and a dependable hitter, wiir.be at another. Ripper Collins, another Wofford player who is big and hits ja long ball, will round out the out- 1 field. “All in all, we will have a young and fast ball club,’’ Greene predicts. “Fof utility men at present we have Bud Fuller and Rex Harris, two i Clinton boys who are working hard. Hall King wijl assist me as a coach ^and I will take my turn on the mound.” The Clinton pilot has been in tex- |tile athletics since he was 14 years South Clinton News For the Week . . . MRS.
