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
