Johny Moore pitched fine ball for ^ the Clinton club but received erra-! tic support. s. j Guy Prater made his first appear ance with Clinton and he made a good appearance by grabbing two hits for four times at bat and also Watts making a few fancy catches in the Ware Shoals outfield. Prater was with the Green- Clinton ville Spinners the first part of the Riverdale 10 season but was dropped from the ros- ter by voluntary retirement. Prater is expected to go well in this league and thus he may be the added spark Clinton neds to put a halt to their fast coming losing streak. w L Pet. 20 11 .645 .... 13 13 .531 .... 14 17 .450 i .... 10 21 .323 Dr. Fred E.

WATTS and WALTER LYNCH, Cooks EVERYBODY INVITED Lydia Loses Games, Players The Lydia Lions who were on the top of the Mid-State league stand ing lost two games this past week to bring their average to twelve wins and five losses. In addition to the losing of the games Lydia also lost -Chick" Liv ingston, catcher and their number one pitcher William Rowland. Row land left Lydia after being offered a higher salary by the Lancaster ball ! club. In his first appearance with Lan caster Rowland fanned eight Chester men in six innings as he went in as a relief hurler. Among his victims was Willie Cranford whom Rowland ! used to play "back alley" ball with. Rowland fanned Cranford twice I just for old times sake. With the leaving of Rowland Ly dia is left with two good pitchers in ( Jimmy Houston and John Dies. Joanna Pushed Into Cellar The Joanna club was pushed fur ther into the lower half of the King Cotton league statistics when Ninety Six took two games from them. I “Boo" O'Shields played a good game in the field for the Joanna- men, in losing. Tinsley showed the folks that it isn't just the winning team that- can hit. Newberry Defeated By Greenwood The Newberry American Legion team was defeated by a score of nine to three in a play off game held in the Clinton Mill park as neutral grounds. Both teams showed power at the plate before a crowd of approximate ly 2.100 fans. Which leaves us with a question to ponder—-Why hasn’t Clinton an American Legion team this year?
