r murphy loses to central hi at knoxville Boomers Have Plenty Of Fighting Spirit As They Bow 51 to 0 By Hubert Adams, Jr. It was the old story of a small school tack'ir.g a larger school which had plenty of reserve strength Friday when Knoxville Central beat Murphy 51 to 0Murphy held their larger opponents to only 6 points in the first quarter, a feat that no other high school that played Central High this year can boast. Central alternated with the first and second team against Murphy ali day; one wearing Murphy's boys out while the other one did the scoring. If Murphy had had the reserve power that Central High had. the story might have been very different. Murphy's players are to be congratulated that they never ceased fighting, although they were trailing in the score they never gave up, and fought for every yard that Central , gained. That is what we like to see about our local team, it never gives up. Every one of the boys who played last Friday gave everything they had for Murphy and they played a Tlx, r m.... phy is not ashamed because of the defeat of the local team, but they are proud of the pluck and grit that every boy showed before such overwhelming odds. Thanksgiving day, the local team i goes to Andrews, N. C., to meet a team they would rather defeat than all the teams on their hard schedule. These teams are evenly matched in weight and size, and everyone who goes to see the game will see a game 1 SULTANA " PINEAPPLE : RAJAH SALAD ORES! ANN PAGE ADDI CCJUIOE nn i lluhuuc 8 O'CIXJCK ?

A large crowd from Murphy are going to Andrews to cheer the local team and hope to come back with them in victory Andrews has a large line and a flashy backfield and have been pointing for Murphy all year. Andrews will be out to beat Murphy by as large a score as they can to help avenge last year's defeat by the hands of the local team. FOOTBALL REVIEW By Mildred Hill The Murphy team suffered no injuries following the game with Knoxville. Lawrence Johnson was unable to play due to a shoulder which had been hurt while at scrimmage. Monday, the boys were given a rest and Tuesday preparation were begun for the game with Andrews. After a hard week of scrimmage new faces will probably be seen in the line-up as Mr. Deaton intends to play those who have shown up well in the recent practices and games. The combat with Andrews on Thanksgving day has always been one of intense interest The heated rivalry between the schools began in 1932 when the teams fought desperately to a tie. The folluWkr.g year Murphy defeated Andrews by 13 to (1 In 1934 both teams clasped again on the local gridiron, the contest dosing with a tie. ? to 7. The year 1935 found the Murphy eleven far more successful, wallopnig their opponents by the tune of 40 to 0. The time has almost arrived when the football fans will have a chance to see the rival teams in action again. What will be the outcome? Here's to the Boomers! More than 1,500 purebred rams were sold at this year's annual ram sale at Salt Lake City. The top price of $1,000 was paid by James Lairlow of Muldoom, Ida., for a 2year-old Suffolk ram which won first prize at the Royal Canadian show last year. A yearling Hampshire wrought $750.
