Abstract:
North Carolina throughout the years has laid claim to many titles in the sports world. For many years North Carolina, Texas, and California have set the pace in furnishing baseball players to the major leagues. In boasting more than fifty players in the majors at the start of the season (1946), the Old North State last year staked a claim to the number one spot in the horsehide world.
