WORCHESTER (UPI)-Craig Jones had seen some pretty wierd things in his lifetime. Craig particularly remembered the time he had worn a black sock and a blue sock to school in Miss Finch's Grade 4-B class. "Geez, was I embarrassed," Craig recalled.
But Craig had the surprise of his life yesterday when he got to first base on a single in yesterday's James Monroe High basoball game.
"I got to the bag and I was standing there catching my breath when I got a look at their (Franklin D. Roosevelt High) first baseman (Cramer Jones)," Craig said. "Geez, the cat looked just like me."
Sure enough, both Craig and Cramer were listed in their high school year-books as 6' 1", 175 pounds. Both had blonde hair, brown eyes, and even Mother Nature couldn't have told them apart. When they found out they both had the last name Jones, the boys were stunned.
"Geez," Craig said. "I though to myself, "you better pinch yourself Jones." But then I didn't know if I should pinch me or him."
Both Jones boys are an only child. When Craig's father, Bill Jones, was asked if he had ever met the other Jones family, he replied, "Don't recall that I have. But the face is familiar."
Everyone agreed the boys were identical twins until Cramer asked Craig to compare foot size. As Craig moved to compare tootsies, Cramer tagged him with the ball. Later it was discovered that Cramer's I.Q. is 126 while Craig's is 71.
