N O., May 2.—It w is fattening day today for the batting averages of the Tarheels, who, in etghl frames pounded three Hopewell pitch ers mercilessly and won a 4 to 13 vlc ; tory. The champions swung Into their old-time hitting elothes and celebrated 'with a great rally that chalked tw^n . ty-three clouts, nine for extra cfcr- ! j ners and two that dropped beyond Hie I enclosure. Every Tarheel had at least j one safe bank to his credit, while I Tlerger led with four out of as many , [ trips to the plate, which netted him i ths total of eight bases Hopewell Was off for a good start 1 with two counts In the opener which went the locals one to the good, but In the second, they w ere blanked, and ! l’nrmelee slashed out of the park and tied the score. It was in the next that the "Down Homers" chased Bennett to the dugout and then made Richards’ life miserable I for the next four innings, to finally | have him derrleked in favor of Rus sell. | There were fast double plays and '■ fielding, but they were all overshad I owed by the lack of effectiveness of the "Powder Puffs' " flingers against the onslaught of the "Tar Heels'" batsmen. Teague, the champs' south paw. was effective throughout, and, with giltedge support by his team males, would have had but oue count a gainst him. Umpire Warner's work could not In any sense be identified with the tn's erabfe poor showing that he made on his initial game here.
