The lead has been see-sawing back and forth between Clinton and Jo anna for about two weeks, although neither team has been able to gain moye than the half game lead over the other. Clinton moved into the top spot via a victory over the last place Watts Warriors while the Hor nets were being debeated by the Riegels fi^om Ware Shoals last Tues day night. Cavaliers Climb Over Watts Clinton’s Cavalier's came from be hind a one run lead held over them in the fifth by the Warriors to roil up four runs of their own which would have been a suitable margin for victory as they edged past the visiting crew five to three. Zeb Eaton hurled his third win for the Cavaliers by getting eight men out by strikeouts, walking only one and giving Up only six base hits. Things looked dark for the Clinton club in the very first inning when a walk, a couple of hits, and an error gave the Warriors a one run lead. The game progressed with the Watts- men holding the lead until the Cava liers had their big fifth inking. Clin ton’s runs were produced on four hits, a walk, and two wild pitches on the part of Watts’ starting pitcher, Roy Bridges, formerly with the third place Ware Shoals Riegels. In this inning the pitcher, Zeb Eaton, gave the Clintonians the margin for vic tory as he belted a triple with one Tnan on the bases and then scored himself on Bridges’ wild pitch. This was the first hit Eaton ha^ collected while with Clinton and he picked a fine time for his powerful poke. Clinton threw the deep freeze on the score in the sixth as they ran one more run across the plate as the pro duction of a couple of singles by Mickey Livingston and Ellis Huff- stetler. The Warriors made a stab at a comeback in the sixth but garnered only two runs in their interpreta tion of the “ ’ole college try." These two runs scooted across the big base after Thomas, Watts’ clean up man, lashed forth with a four bagger with teamamate Roy Peeler on base. The Cavaliers’ competent second baseman, Aravelo, came through with top batting honors by connect ing with three of Bridges’ fat pitch es for four times at bat. Peeler was the only Warrior to hang his war club on two hits. Joanna Edged By Reigels The Joanna Hornets wound up on the short end of a low scoring two to one contest with the Reigels in Ware Shoals last Tuesday night as they were the victims of the old hit and run play in the freakish fifth. With the score all knotted up at one apiece, for the Reigels and the Hornets, the Ware Shoals manager put on the hit and run with one man on first and Douglas at bat. Doug las hit and Phillips ran, all the way home on a single. This was the last score made by the Reigels but it was Jftghly sufficient to win the game for the Ware Shoalers. The Joannians were handcuffed with five hits by Reigel flipper, Andy Hawthorne. The Riegels managed to swat nine blows off Joannians Moore and Cudd. Pitcher Johhn Moore abolished the old proverb about pitchers can’t hit (as far as he was concerned) by com ing through with two singles in three times up. Big Jake Daniels was the only other Joanna protege to garner more than one single. Daniels hit safely for two singles for four times at bat. Phillips gathered in two hits for three trips to lead the Ware Shoalers at the plate. Three errors were committed be fore the crowd of 1,300, two on the part of Ware Shoals and one being WE DO ALL KINDS or PRINTING irvr'PPT RATI CHRONICLE PUBLISHING CO. 1950 GRADUATING CLASS OF CLINTON HIGH SCHOOL charged to the visiting Joanna crew.

Acheson himself said he was "en couraged by the progress made in the North Atlantic treaty organization and by the talks I have had with the foreign ministers in London.” He will report fully on his mission to the President and to congress next week. Meanwhile, Acheson faces a heavy array of problems as reflected in the day’s other diplomatic developments.
