Sports-Baseball The NAVARRO softball team rolled to a 15 won and 4 lost record for the period 1 luly 1958 to 1 luly 1959. Mem- bers of the Navarro team with brief resume of their record are indicated below: B1LL ELLISON, SN-Pitcher who had a record of ll and 2 and hit for a 370 average. Ellison hit 9 homers in the 19 games and was the big gun of the Navarro attack. He also is a gifted outfielder when not pitching. BILL RASMUSSEN, PNl-Manager and first baseman took the team over after they had suffered 6 straight losses in the Philippines and molded a winner. Has managed teams for the past decade and instilled in the team the winning habit. At lst base he hit for a 380 average. BOB HARPER - Second baseman and coach Harper fielded the position flawlessly and hit for 280 as a lead off man. Harper another holler guy who along, with man- ager Rasmussen gave the Navarro a spirited infield. HM WORRELL-Shortstop batted for the lofty average of 475 and was the leading runs batted in man on the team. Sure handed fielder who made the big plays. CARL WALKER-3rd baseman and a good one. Walker hit the ball with consistency for a 417 batting average and gave the team an airtight infield. KEN HAMNER-Catcher who was converted from an in- fielder and did a real fine job behind the plate. Possessor of a whiplike arm and very fast for a receiver. Hit for a steady 350 average, with the ability to hit the long ball. RON ENGER-Pitcher-outfielder who made a fine second pitcher and hit for a lofty 412 in 9 games. Hit his way into a starter's role with big bat. The remainder of the Navarro outfield included lohn Hammons, Bob Brady, Bob Straub, George Stewart and lohnny lackson. Stewart was a newcomer who was out- field coach and a pinchrunner. For the limited time that the team had to practice it performed as a real good club. Highlight of the season was the team beating the SAN IOAQUIN COUNTY after a loss. The LST had won 22 out of 24 prior to the Navarro knocking them off ll to 7 in a return contest. The team also knocked off the TALLADEGA twice in Guam by the scores 13 to 9 and 7 to 4.
