PAGE TWO Aces Drop Game To Roanoke Rapids By Margin Os One Point Locals Outplay Visitors By Chalking Up 15' First Downs to Five Though outplaying a rugged Roan oke Rapids High School team, the greatly improved Edenton Aces lost by a margin of one point 7-6 on Hicks Field Friday night. The Aces chalked up 15 first downs t# five by the visit ing gridders, but were unable to push the pigskin over the goal line to gain the victory. The Aces were courting a touchdown in the final seconds of the game and were heading for the Roanoke Rapids'goal line when time was called. The Aces looked like a different team Friday. The entire line played a greatly improved game, time and again holding back the onslaught of the big Roanoke Rapids backfield f LAST CHANCE } !g” f /SAVEK* I on each 5-lb. bag of PURINA rflm dog CHow^ylp 1 (USE VALUABLE j COUPON BELOW AND TRY THIS f BETTER DOG FOOD AT A J > SAVING j 5 LBS.

Bobby Byrum played just about the best game of his career as he waded through the opposing line for neat gains each time he carried the bail. Jack Habit, too, was a ter ror to the Roanoke Rapids boys, be ing hard to stop as he consistently 1 picked up yardage. Russell Wheeler 1 , played his usual good game and fre quently shook off »tacklers to make substantial gains. George Habit, Gene Spruill, Earl Goodwin, A1 and , Frank Habit, Teddy, Lupton, Earl Menshew and Paul Hagsell in the line contributed considerably to the stub bornness of the Aces, breaking up the visitors’ plays and yielding little ground in defensive play. Roanoke Rapids kicked to start the game and on the second play Wheeler [ bulled his way to the Roanoke Rapids 28. Byrum then drove 12 yards for first down. Jack Habit-picked up 4 and Wheeler 2, and on the next play Whitson flipped a pass to Wheeler • for a touchdown, but an attempted , pass for extra point failed. In the , first quarter the Aces made four first downs and Roanoke Rapids two. Near the end of the quarter the Yellow Jackets intercepted a pass and regis tered a first down as the quarter ended. Starting the second quarter, the THE CHOWAN HERALD. EDENTON, N.

During the remainder ■ of the quarter neither team could ' make much headway, the Aces chalk ing up three first downs, while the - visitors made two. Near the end of ! the half Hassell dropped a pass in the , open, which might have resulted in a l score. ' Edenton kicked to start the second 1 half, but the visitors were held for ' downs and forced to punt. Habit 1 and Wheeler alternated to make three 1 first downs, but the visitors intercept ed a pass, and carried the ball to i Edenton’s 20. Attempts to crack the ' Edenton line failed, sq that the ball i went over to the Aces on the 19-yard ' line. Habit went for a first down and Byrum picked up 4 yards, when an other pass was intercepted. The visi ' tors then made their only first down i in this period and Wheeler intercept i ed a pass on the 15. Habit and Byrum netted a first ' down to start the final period. Habit and Wheeler added another, but the Aces were penalized five yards. The Aces kicked, but the visitors could make no headway and also kicked. It was then that the Aces threatened to score again, but time ran out. Wheeler picked up 25 yards on a nice run. Byrum made 8 and Wheeler went for a first down. He then gained 6 yards, but the Aces were forced to kick. The visitors, unable to gain, kicked. Byrum rammed through the line for 9 yards and a first down and Wheeler added five more as the final whistle sounded. Mrs. J. C. Leary Again PTA District Secretary (Continued from Page One) proved instruction, since in some sec tions achievements vary because of lack of coordination in instruction. Another disturbing factor is the shortage of qualified teachers in our schools. The still too-low salaries which have caused so many teachers to leave their profession, inadequate housing facilities and the desire for recognition in a community were given by Dr. Erwin as some of the reasons for this situation. He rec ommended more teacherages and more friendliness and genuine inter est for better cooperation. Stricter enforcement of compul sory attendance was stressed to help eliminate illiteracy in our state, in vestigation showing that such a large i\umber of children grow into adults with so little formal education, regardless of the fact that education al advantages are freely offered. Dr. Erwin was emphatic in his views concerning the conservation of national resources, saying that the time has come to think about the masked resources of our country and that children should be taught proper regard for their preservation, there, by helping them to utilize their human resources to advantage. In conclusion, Dr. Erwin expressed his optimism in the future of world government, saying that America is a composite nation and that the peoples of the world must be taught to live together in peace as we do; that it is not a thing to be accom plished overnight but must be work ed out, and with patience to over come the tremendous obstacles con fronting us, world government can come into being.

Two films recommended by > her, which are obtainable from the : State Board of Health, are “Mr. Wil liams Wakes Up 1 ’ and “Do You Know Your Adolescent?” A brief address was made by Mrs. E, B. Hunter, of Charlotte, State president, on the subject, “Building For Tomorrow”, pointing out that our responsibilities are greater than ever and that our children need us as never before during such a difficult period which invariably follows chaps and war. She particularly emphasiz ed file 4-point state program which is (1) School education, (2) World education, (3) Parent and family life and (4) Health. An invitation was extended by the Plymouth P. T.
