Edenton High School ! Team Easy Prey For Strong L City Outfit Aces Lucky to Score In Nifty Fourth Quar ter Play _ Greatly outweighed and outclassed' experience, Edenton High School’s team was an easy prey for the Elizabeth City High School team Friday afternoon on Hicks Field when the visitors won by the one-sided score of 47-6. The game in the first half resulted in more or less of a touchdown parade, the count at half time being 34-0. The visitors’ attack was sparked by husky John Copley, former Catho lic Orphanage boy, who .scored al most at will, easily outrunning the smaller boys and time and again pushing them over like ten-pins. Another powerhouse in the Elizabeth City line was James Butler, former Edenton hoy, who played on the Eden ton team five years ago. Coach Venters’ boys, despite the odds against them, fought valiantly siud managed to score a touchdown in what was about the most spectacular play of the game. With the score 17-0 in the final quarter, and playing in: their Owi territory,. Sammy Ross dropped back to. the 10-yard line from where he whipped a pass to Cleary on the 20-yard line. With perfect interference, Cleary weaved and twisted his way on an 80-yard jaunt to save the Aees from a white washing. The score was totally un expected and was reason for much elation on the part of Edenton fans.
