I neglected to comment on the "fighting
spirit" displayed by both Wayne Hairfield
and Ronnie Minter during the "donnybrook"
at Bassett Hi. Both lads had to be physi-
cally placed on the bus by Coach W.K. Putney.
But, standing out in my memory was the reply
Coach Putney gave to the Bassett coach when
it was implied that Martinsville may have
taken some of Bassett's baseballs. Coach
Putney cooly told him "if Bassett was the
only place in this world I could get base-
balls - we would do without!" Well said,
Coach Putney! |
