Winners of 15 games, Clinton's River Kings summer baseball crew posted an excellent record during the 1963 campaign, losing six and tying one. On at least four occasions the Kings broke loose for impressive wins by lop-sided scores over the opposition, but suffered no losses in similar fashion. In preparation for the state tournament trail, the Kings whipped twelve opponents, tied Betten- dorf, and lost a doubleheader to Iowa City, along with a single game to Rock Falls. ln the summer tournament the Kings were paired in the same sectional with the eventual state champion, Clinton St. Mary's, and had to bow out by a 4-O decision. Most of the squad will remain eligible for the 1964 sea- son, offering good prospects for the coming summer. Mike Eberle and Greg Sander headed the batting parade with . 414 and . 413 averages, well- supported by Dave Meyers and Barry Fish with . 333 each. Eberle also scored the most runs, 20, and led in runs-batted-in, 15. Bill Jakubsen QZOJ, Dave Meyers 1143, Tim Reed 1145, and Steve Wildman q14j were other leading scorers. Iakubsen's 14 RBI's and Steve Wildman's 12 backed up in that department. Craig Current paced the mound staff with a 7-1 record. Dan Lawson had a 4-2 record, Craig McNeil won 2, losing 1, and Eberle and Gary Jacobs each won once and lost once. . . . Around Home Plate A young admirer gazes wistfully at three Kings, Newton, Eberle, and Reed, as they gather around the dugout. 13
