esume nf the 25211:-'-ehzxll 525151111 The baseball team of 1928 had a very gratifying season, as one realizes upon glancing over the scores. Mr. S. B. Tatem put the boys through some real workouts before the season started. Ou: first game was with Scotland Neck, on a disagreeable day with the ball being blown about and the sand flying. Bill Yeates, in his first game with our high school, pitched a very good game, the final score of which was 2-2. The next game was with Weldon at Hertfordg although we lost, Walter Smith pitched well and received excellent support from his team mates. For some reason We did not have much hope of winning when we journeyed to LaGrange. This was the first game which Ben Thach pitched, and he did so well that he was the regular pitcher for the rest of the season. The game ended in our favor: 6-5. Next Scotland Neck came to Hertford, sure of victory. They were defeated, however, and the tie that had been made was broken in our favor. April 13, Hertford went to Weldon. An unlucky break in the fourth inning gave Weldon six runs. The boys fought hard, but Weldon got the long end of the score: 7-2. Our second game with LaGrange brought us a score of 14-1, with Thach striking out fifteen men. E. A. Goodman made an outstanding play of high school baseball when he jumped three feet into the air and caught a line drive in his naked hand. April 20 we were visited by Goldsboro, who defeated us 4-3 in a game that was really one of the best of the season. The next game we were due to play was rained out, but on April 27 Elm City came, primed to win. In the fifth inning the rain began to pour in torrents and the game had to be called o1T, but we were one run in the lead. Other games which had been scheduled had to be called off on account of examina- tions, and thus ended a season which we feel was very satisfactory.
