Congratulations to Carl Hicks, senior guard, and “Rip” Furr,
Junior fullback, who were selected as Maddog of the Week against
lockingham and Monroe, respectively. Receiving the honors as Head

Overcash and Roger Lewder.
Against Statesville, Whit Morrow, senior half-back, received recog
nition for his efforts offensively, and Bobby Overcash, senior, Joe
Rabon, senior, and Bill Howell, sophomore, were recognized for their
outstanding defensive play.
Whit Morrow was named Maddog of the Week, and Joe Rabon
and Bill Tucker were announced Headhunters of tiie Week for the
superb play against Asheboro November 12. Congratulations to each
of these boys.

Football season closed here at ASHS in quite a different fashion
than it has in the past two years. Instead of finishing last in the
conference, the Bulldogs placed third with a 3-2-1 record in conference
action. Asheboro won the conference with a perfect 6-0 record; Thom-
asville finished second with a 5-1 record. The football team and the
coaching staff deserve much credit for their work over the past
months toward making the Bulldogs a team to be proud of.
Special recognition should be given the boys who ended their high
school football careers in the hard fought battle with Asheboro. Play
ing their last game were George Burleson, Lynn Burleson, Roger Clark,
Charles Daniel, Reed Furr, Walter Harkey, Wade Hatley, Tony Hed
rick, Leon Helms, Carl Hicks, Danny Lisk, Lanny Lowder, Roger
Lowder, Rodney Morgan, Whit Morrow, Bobby Overcash, Joe Rab«n,
Charles Taylor, Bill Tucker, and Tom Webb.
Joe Rabon should also be congratulated on being picked to play
for the North Carolina squad in the Shrine Bowl.
Basketball season being just around the comer, let’s turn our
heads in that direction for a while. Both squads have been practicing
since the middle of October and should be ready for the opening
game with North Rowan to be played here December 1.
The Bulldogettes for ’65-’66 are a relatively inexperienced team
with only four players, two of them who have lettered, returning from
last year’s squad. Linda Lucas, senior, and Beth Eddins, junior, are
the only returning lettermen on the team, but this does not mean
that the Bulldogettes will not be a promising team to watch.
Returning to the Bulldogs are eight players from last year’s squad,
which finished third in the conference and later won the biconference
Piedmont Tournament played in Statesville: Tommy Smith, David
Smith, Bobby Overcash, Tom Webb, Joe Rabon, Leon Helms, and Bob
Townsend, all seniors, and Mark Cain, junior, were members of the
’64-’65 Bulldogs, and they should stand as a rough barrier to any team
with hopes of winning the conference this season.

Rabon To Play In Shrine Game
Joe Rabon, 18-year-old senior, has received an invitation to
play for Coach Clyde Walker’s North Carolina team against the
South Carolina squad in the 29th annual Shrine Bowl Game at
Charlotte Memorial Stadium December 4.
Joe stands 6-1 and weighs 198 pounds, and is a member of
the North Carolina 33-man pigskin aggregation. He is listed as
one of the five guards.
Joe is a three-year letterman and performs on offense and
defense. Offensively, he plays guard and tackle, and defensively,
he plays the positions of end, tackle, and middle guard. He received
his letter during his sophomore year for his participation in sports.
In series action. North Carolina leads with 13 wins, 11 losses,
and four ties; however. South Carolina has captured five of the
last six games.
Go-Go Girls Dynamite Good Guys
Amid the flurry of swirling
skirts and flying shakers, the final
score of 20-13 topped the long-
awaited game between the WAYS
Good Guys and Albemarle’s fam
ed Go-Go Girls in the local stad
ium, November 16.
Big Ways won the toss and
elected to receive. The Good Guys
fumbled the kickoff and the Girls
recovered.
After carries of 25 and 9 yards
by Gwen Boyd, Sarah Cox took
the ball on a double reverse and
rounded left end for the first score
of the game. The conversion at
tempted was good and the Girls
led 7-0.
After the kickoff and a diving
tackle by Catherine Kelley, the
Good Guys completed several
passes and Melvin carried the ball
for a Big Ways touchdown. Mike
Greene completed the extra point,
tieing the game at 7-7.
After runs of 15 and 20 yards
by Boyd, Ellen Reeves lugged the
leather across the goal on an 11-
yard romp. Boyd’s point-after
failed and the first half ended with
the Go-Go Girls ahead 13-7.
The home club received the
second half kickoff, and after a
series of downs, the girls were
forced to punt. The Grood Guys
gained possession and scored, this
time on a 55-'yard pass to Greene.
The extra point failed and the
score was deadlocked 13-13.
Rita Furr received the short
kickoff and ran back for 5 yards.
Boyd and Cox proceeded to carry
the ball 71 yards in four plays for
a TD. The point-after was good.
The score now rested at 20-13 in
favor of the Go-Go Girls.
The Good Guys were unable to
score in the closing minutes of the

Wrestling
Underway
Approximately 16 boys began
getting in shape for wrestling sea
son November 1. They engaged in
individual workouts for the follow
ing two weeks. These workouts
included running laps, crabbing on
all fours, pull ups, sit ups, and
bridging.
Officially, Coach Gibbs opened
wrestling practice November 15,
when the boys who had been
working out on their own were
joined by several members who
had been on the football team.
Returning from last year’s
squad are eight wrestlers, one of
whom finished first in tlie con
ference tournament staged at
Pfeiffer College last February.
Benny Bowers captured first place
in his weight class. Even though
several of the squad’s light-weignt
members are inexperienced, the
Bulldog wrestlers of 1965-66 should
give good showings at their
matches because they will not
have to forfeit any weight divi
sions as was necessary in past
years.
The first match is scheduled for
the first part of December.
