UNITED STATES AMBASSADORS The Wake Forest baseball team continues to

win honors for the school. Their invitation to ~ttend the Pan American Games in Buenos Aires as a representative of the United States is about the highest honor we ever remember an athletic team from any college in this area receiving. We think the members of the Dea-con baseball teams of the past few years, some of whom are still on the squad, might well be ' signally honored because it was no doubt due to the excellent showing of the 1948, 1949, and 1950 squads in regional and intersectional play that brought the invitation to Wake Forest. That Wake Forest was considered for such an excursion is a tribute to the excellence of play, and the sportsmanship of the Deacon nines of the past few Springs.

We don't envy Coach Taylor Sanford the po-sition in which he found himself a few days back when he was forced to choose only 12 men to take on the trip from the wealth of talent he has on hand. It must nave cost him hours of worry, but the men who have been left behind :uo doubt realize that when only 12 players are chosen, there are many good performers who must necessarily stay at homE'.

With little practice, only four pitchers and just one catcher, the Deacons are going to be in f0r a tough job down south of the equator. But if tl1eir performances in the past are any indication, they won't be found lacking.

A GOOD COMBINATION The Baptist Student Union is to be congratu-

lated for its recent Religious Guidance Week. It was certainly the most colorful, and prob-ably the most successful of any such religio11s emphasis week that we have seen here. Mem-bers of the BSU come in for special commen-dation for the wav in which they executed their plans; actually, however, they ·had already in-sured success by their combination of ·good speakers with intensely interesting topics.

And the encouraging thing about this week was that despite tl1e fact that all the topics were just about as far removed as possible from the world crisis, Wake Foresters still flocked to them. Which may be an indication that a

·U.S,. Victory Ship,~ Named For College, Is Traveling Seas Again For Defense Effort

B;r BILL AUSTIN Somewhere on the seven seas

today the USS Wake Forest Vic-tory rides the waves, contributing its share to the defense effort of this country and standing as a tribute to one of the oldest educa-tional institutions in the land. The craft, one of the Victory class pro-duced in great number during the last war, was authorized by the U. S. Maritime Commission in 1945 and was 'one of 40 ships to be named in honor of outstanding schools in the nation.

The namesake of this institution served gallantly in the gigantic Pacific campaign of the last war by transporting urgently needed men and materials.

Although the present location or Dctivities of the ship are unknown by the Old Gold and Black, it is known that the USS Wake Fore-st is engaged in the defense effort of the United States.

In reply to a recent inquiry, N. C. Congressman C. B. Deane an-swered that "for security reasons it is not wise to give out inform

est,,. six years old this March, in-cludes its record-breaking 27-day construction period at the Henry Kaiser Permanante Metals Corpor-

ati.on shipyards at Richmond, Calif. The drum beating and ballyhoo which accompanied this world's job record no doubt caused west-erners to take ·notice of this Bap-tist college some 3, 000 miles to the east.

Wake Forest was represented at the launching of her sea-worthy namesake by Naval Chaplain Har-old L. McManus, a graduate of this school delegated by President Thurmond Kitchin. His outstand-ing address set high standards for both the ship and the college to maintain and then, with due cere-mony, the USS Wake Forest Vic-tory was christened and slid down the ways into the sea.

4~-Book Library Local students were proud of

"their"vessel and set about to raise funds to buy a worthy gift for it. A 40-book unit for the ship's li-brary was soon presented by the Veterans Club here, while faculty members, students and various other organizations also presented a number of books for this pur-pose.

Later Wake Foresters were glad to receive news of the ship in a letter from Second Mate Joseph Aquila who related a running story of its first two voyages. The maid-en· voyage included port calls 'to the Marshall and Ulithi Islands, and to Okinawa. The "Wake For-est" experienced a few air ·raids and the tail end of a typhoon but neither proved to be serious.

It was on the second voyage that

crewmen of the ship sent out an urgent plea for pin-up photos of 16 of this school's most beautiful coeds. Their photos were to adorn the walls of the "Wake Forest's" recreation room while the one chosen "Miss Wake Forest Vic-tory" would occupy a central po-sition. A campus-wide beauty contest was duly conducted and full-length pin-ups were dispatch-ed to the crewmen.

Rumored a Luxury Liner Following the end of World War

II, the college lost contact with the USS Wake Forest and it was later rumored that the ship had been sold to a private concern and was being used as a luxury liner .

In order to find out the truth concerning the whereabouts of the college's namesake, the Old Gold and Black dispatched an inquiry · to Congressman C. B. Deane, ask- •· ing him to help locate the ship. In his reply, Mr. Deane stated, "For security reasons it is not wise to give out the information on the activity of this ship. I can advise, ' however, that the rumors you have are not true and that this ship is making its contribution to the de-fE'nse effort."

Although Wake Foresters, ot necessity, cannot remain in act~ve contact with "their" ship, they can, nevertheless, take pride in the fact that the USS Wake For-est is upholding the traditions o:t its name by rendering service to its country over the years.

ing the day to leave.

Said Asa Bushnell of the New York office of the Olympic com-mittee, "Our baseball committee surveyed the whole amateur field, and the colleges dominated it. Wake Forest on its record wr.s found to be the most deserving of the invitation to represent the United States." ·

Probably the major reason that Wake Forest received the bid was because of the remarkable showing that the Deacon nines of 1949 and 1950 made. Two springs ago, the baseball Baptists astounded the national collegiate world by rocketing to twenty successive victories.

LEE GOOCH AND HiS '49ERS This 1949 unit, headed by genial Lee Gooch and boasting such stars

as Charlie Teague, Gene Hooks, Harry Nicholas, Moe Bauer, Art Hoch, Joe Fulghum, Mickey VanderClute and many others, won. the Southern Conference title with oomparativey little ease. But that wasn't ali. Tile team accepted a bid to the District Three N. C. A. A. playoffs that were held in Charlotte ..

They continued their winning ways there, too. Gooch'.s band of Deacons knocked off Kentucky and Mississippi State to win the crown and the right to meet Notre Dame in the regional playoffs at South Bend, Indiana.

Actually, the Baptist club didn't really know what it had accom-plished in those two games. Like all good baseball teams, the Deacons merely took it in stride. The job wasn't completed, not yet anyway. The regional title won Wake Forest the right to enter the tournament• field at Wichita, Kansas 'and a crack at the national collegiate title.

A CRACK AT THE NATIONAL TITLE As they climbed off the train in Wichita after a full day's ride

from Chicago, the Deacons finally realized this was the chance that they had been waiting for-a "Little World Series" title.

It had been a long, hard struggle, but it was worth every effort. Pitted against such big time schools as the University of Southern California. Texas University and St. John's College of New York, it appeared at the time as if the Deacons were a small ;fish in a large pond.

Yet, because of their record and uphill battle to the final playoffs, they were tabbed the darkhorsc of the tournament. That turned out to be a good name. In the opening game with Southern California, the Deacons went ten innings before finally edging out the Trojans, 2-1, on the fine pitching of Harry Nic!wlas, the Baptist ace right-hander. That game started at 10:15 one June Wednesday night and wasn't com,leted until 12:40. Gooch hurried his Deacons back to the hotel for showers, took them out to eat, and got back to the hotel at 1:50 for some much needed sleep.

TEXAS WAS A LITTLE TOO TOUGH For exactly seventeen hours later, the Baptist were scheduled to

take the field against Texas University. That night, the Deacons found the Texas team a little too tough and went down by an 8-1. score.

It was a double-elimination tournament, so the Deacs weren't out :vet. At 10:15 Friday night, Wake Forest faced Southem California a~ain. If there ever was a cocky ball club, the Trojans were one of them.

As expected, the Trojans were rough again, but the Deacons were a little tougher and stopped them again by a 2-1 count. It took twel:ve innings and a masterful six-hit pitching job by VanderClute and some fancy stick-work by Teague and Hooks to do the trick.

They had made it. Eight tournament games and only one defeat-and now-the grand finale-ali alone to battle Texas for the NCAA crown.

The Texans proved too much for the Deacs once more and branded them with a W-3 defeat to take the national collegiate title.

DEACS GOT THEIR SHARE OF AWARDS But when the tournament was over and the voting began in the

press box and coaches' box, the Deacons found that they had pulled a few winners. 'When the individual sportsmanship trophy was pre-sented, the Deacs' Russ Batchelor, a talented catcher, claimed it. It was a well deserved award for the affable Batchelor w~o had been the real field general for the Baptists.

There were more trophies. The Deacons walked off with team sportsmanship honors, too. The final trophy was the runner-up award. All in all, the Deacons grabbed three of the seven trophies awarded. T~t superlative showing actually won the 1949 Deacons this trip

to Argentina. But only five of them \~ill be around to cash fn on the dividend. They are pitchers, Dick McClenney and Max Eller, first baseman Wiley Warren, shortstop Kay Rogers and catcher Tunaey Brooks.

That means that seven rookies, along with the ahove-mentbned five veterans. will make the long trek to Argentina on February 22. It's a big order, especially when you've got to face teams from twelve other countries. But the Deacons want H.

"That team has what it takes," observed a spectator at one of th~ Wake Forest Freshman basketball games. With the season two-thirds over, 'score booll:s are prov-ing that the 1950 Baby Deacs are indeed the team with the talent.

Last November a group of bas-ketball aspirants, who had suit-cases full of high school honors from back home, reported to Coach Harold Barrow. The boys did not look particularly impressive at first, but time has proved that these boys could do with a basket-ball almost anything that should be done with the old cow-hide sphere.

Swamped Varsity In early Novem'ber, eyebrows

raised as the unknowns swamped their varsity brothers in the first practice: game of the season. Thus started the story of the 1950-51 Baby Deacs.

The record of the Baby Deacs· was for a time a perfect one as the flashy fresh squeezed out a win ever the Duke Frosh 59-54 in the season opener at Ahoskie, N. C., and then rode roughshod over the Baby Tar Heels at Chapel Hill, the Campbell College Camels at Lil-ington, Louisburg College at Louis-burg, and finall:r they went to Norfolk, Va., where they beat Wil-liam & Mary's Norfolk Division Frosh 61-55.

It was on January 11 that the fledglings first appeared on the hardwood of Gore Gymnasium. In that first home game of the season. the locals showed their speed anrl swamped the Carolina Frosh by a rousing 83-51 score. Few spec-tators would deny that the frosh stole the show that evening as. they recorded a 32 point victory over the Big Four foe.

On January 16, defeat came for the first time to the Little Baptists. It was then that the Babes fell 50-47 at the hands of the N. C. State College Freshman five. The game was nip and tuck all the way, but the State Frosh came through in the final 20 seconds of play to cop the victory.

After the State defeat, the boys started dragging their heels and were sluggish in the William and Mai;Y game the following night. Only by freezing the ball could t]1e locals hold a one point 55-54 mar-gin in the last minute of nlay.

games against State and William & Mary, the team handed the out-standing Blue Devil Imps a 48-47

After the Carolina defeat, the Baby Deacs returned to Gore Gym ar.d crushed the Campbell College Varsity 84-46. Jack Williams was once again the big l(un as hfi! buck-

eted 27 points-his high mark for the season. The 38 point margin c:.f victory which the Frosh record-ed that night stands as one of the greatest margins ever recorded in Gore Gymnasium.

Wingate Falls The last Baby Deac victim was

the Wingate Junior College Var-sity. The visitors fell hard in a !H-63 Baptist runaway.
