These were the words of Western Carolina Coach Dan Robinson who announced today that the promising quarterback from Candler has been advised by his physician to quit football.

The injury kept him on ■u-1 the remainder of the season but appeared to have mended enough for him to continue his Play in spring drills.

H-VST - ^*°" £ - H«rnrI Against Wittenberg Catamounts To Open Baseball Slate Today CULLOWHEE, March 26— Western Carolina's Catamounts, defending western division champions in the North State Conference, open their baseball season Tuesday at 3 p.m. when they play host to Wittenberg (Ohio) College. Catamount Coach Jim Gudger, who remains pessimistic about his team's chances of winning the conference flag this season, will field an experience team against Wittenberg. All but one of the starters are lettermen. Breaking into the lineup for the first time will be Jimmy Matthews, strong-arm rightfielder, who has been hitting well in pre-season drills. Western Carolina's veteran infield includes Ronnie Swartzel at first base, Larry Tuttle at second base, Bobby Holcombe at shortstop and Nookie McCrary at third base. Swartzel paced the club in hitting last season. McCrary, a standout on the 1952 and 1953 clubs, returned from the Army last fall. He flashed old form in nailing down the infield post. Lettermen starters in the outfield are leftfielder Fred Liner and centerfielder George Kirby Dwight (Rabbit) Sherrill will handle the receiving chores. Gudger was undecided tonight as to which one of his top three hurlers will get the starting assignment against the Ohicans. Lefty J. E. Pardue and righthanders Jim Brogden and Dallaj' Cloer are set to start the ser* son's opener. Over Wittenberg Pardue Pitches Cats To 5-3 Win ■ CULLOWHEE, March 27 — as Lefty Jim Pardue handcuffed Wit-I Itenberg College for six innings1 I here today, the Western Carolina Catamounts punched across five 'runs in the second inning and went on to win their opening oase- ball game, 5-3, over the Ohio college nine. Pardue ran into trouble in the seventh when Wittenberg scored its three runs and righthander1 Jim Brogden came on in relief to smother the Wittenberg uprising and preserve the victory for the big southpaw. Pardue pitched two-hit ball for six innings and from the second to the sixth he retired 12 batters in order, fanning seven of them. In the second inning WCC's Nookie McCrary, leading off reached first on an error. Bobby Holcombe lined a double down the right field line, moving McCrary to third. Larry Tuttle lifted a sacrifice fly to centerfield which te^'McCrary home with WCCs first run and moved Holcombe to third. Rabbit Sherrill blooped a Texas I KaDDit Sherrill blooped a Texas strong till the 6th | Leaguer over third to score Hoi combe and Pardue followed with a walk. After George Kirby popped out, Jim Matthews walked to fill the bases. Ronnie Swartzel, WCC's only man to collect two hits, singled sharply to right centerfield, scoring Sherrill and Pardue. The outfield play on Swartzel's single was to home but pitcher Dick Moore cut off the throw and, attempting to nail Swartzel at second, threw wild into the outfield. Matthews scored WCC's fifth run on the error. t to end Fred Liner grounded o the inning. Pardue ran into trouble in tha seventh when he walked Gene jJrbanski and Lowell Hess singled to right, moving Urbanski to third. Jim Hawkins scored Urban- ski with a sacrifice fly and Dale Overholser scored Hess with a single Neal Riffle, a pinch hitter, singled Overholser home and WCC Coach Jim Gudger pulled Pardue. Brogden came in to retire the side and pitch hitless ball the rest of the way. ..Moore went the distance for Wittenberg and pitched shutout ball for six innings following the disastrous second. Western Carolina will play its next games next Tuesday and Wednesday, entertaining Elon here in a pair of North State Con- eLe,nce games. The Catamounts are defending champions in the conference's western division.
