Mountaineers To Host Catamounts Saturday The Appalachian Mountaineers, winners over Newberry last week, 144, will host the Catamounts ot Western Carolina College Satur day night in William J. Conrad Stadium. The game is the annual batue Deiween the two mountain state - supported schools and is expected to be lihe feature at traction in the Carolina* Con ference. Western Carolina goes into the game fresh from a smashing 34-0 victory over highly regarded Car sun-Newman. Both teams have outstanding offensive bacxfields and great de fensive line units, so something has to give on Saturday unless last year is to be repeated. The two slugged each other for sixty minutes in Ashe v tile but had to settle for a 6-6 deadlock. Overall, the schools have met 27 times on the gridiron with Appalachian emerging a* victor 23 times. Appalachian is expected to start the same unit that moved the ball so effectively against Wofford, two weeks ago. Half back Nikki Helms, a workhorse with 61 yards against Wofford, failed to play this past week against Newberry because oi an injut Helms is expected to be in top shape for Western Caro lina, assuming Ms share of the offensive load along with Jim Hayes, Tom Culbreth, and Sher riH NorviUe. Quart arrack Dennis Saunders continues to improve with every game. The junior signal-caller completed four of his first five passes for 68 yards and one touchdown this past week after a fine performance against W of ford two weeks ago. Saunders also has a perfect four for four in extra point attempts. The Appalachian line is set for the Catamounts in full force. Led m the past two games by tackle Larry Hand, the defensive unit i!>as allowed opponents an average of only 70 yards on the ground. Greg Van Qrden, Richard Tickle, and Larry Crutchfirid have play ed excellent football in the first two games, and were instru mental in stopping Newberry's great passer, Tom Gorman, with only one completion last Satur day. Few injuries have turned up, and the regulars are expected to be in full strength for the Catamounts. Mn Evelyn C.

Three Wataugans To i'iSlJ W.M i Attend Homes Tour Three Watauga citizens will again represent North Carolina this year in Waterford, Va., at the 20th annual Waterford Foundation Homes Tour and Crafts Exhibit, to be held Oc tober 4, 5, and 6. The yearly affair, sponsored by the nonprofit historical foun dation composed of Waterford citizens, consists of public tours of carefully restored 18th cen tury homes in the Waterford area, and a number of exhibits of various country arts and crafts. The three Wataugans partici pating will be Mrs. Evelyn C. Nichols of Boone, who will mix and sell potpourri; Mrs. Bill Jackson of Boone, who will not be in Waterford personally, but will send her exhibit of knotted bedspreads, hand-tied canopies, and fringes of all kinds to be shown; and Mr. Ed Presnell of Banner Elk, who will present ? number of mountain crafts of a more masculine variety. Tbe strange concoction which goes by the name of potpourri, according to Mrs. Nichols, is "a mixture of herbs, flowers and spices, all dried, with oils and preservatives added to make the old fashioned sweet smelling jars that our grandmothers and their grandmothers used for scenting the parlor or their linens or writing paper which they used for their sweethearts."
