In a game of ball Friday afternoon, the first of the season, between the High School and Locke Mill teams, the score was 6 to 5 in favor of the Locke team. The batteries were Sapenfield and Cook for the high school and Roscoe Cleaver and Aiken for the Locke Mill team. The features of the game were the fine work of the high school infield, and the good work of Aiken, the cater of the Locke team. There have been 38 candidates for the high school ball team, from which the best will be chosen for the season.
From The Concord Tribune, March 18, 1922. Last name was Paschal on first reference and Pascal in second reference. I don’t know which is correct. Also, I wonder if he was left guard on the team instead of left gardner, as was written in the paper.
