ANDREWS WILDCATS CLAW OUT
14-12 WIN OVER SWAIN CO. HIGH
Andrews Wildcats clawed over
the Swain Maroon Devils Friday
night 14-12 to chalk up another
game in the win column.
The contest was staged at Bry
son City.
Outweighed by 20 pounds per
man, the Wildcats completely dom
inated the play in the first quarter
as they drove deep into Swain's
territory. Led by the PosteQ broth
ers running at half back and the
hard driving Hubert Meyers at full
back, Andrews drove down to
Swain's 1 yard line where the Ma
roon Devils threw up a staunch de
fense to (top the Wildcats.
L. D. Hyde, Swain's quarterback
constantly punted Swain out of dan
ger with long high trouncing kicks.
The Andrews team kept digging out
the short yardage and Terry Postell
slammed through tackle, from 6
yards out for the first touchdown.
The extra point was added by Hu
bert Meyers who bulled his way
through for the 2 yards. Bryson
City took the kick-off immediately
began a drive that carried to And
rews 29 yard line.
Cope took the handoff and drove
off tackle to score for Swain. The
extra point was missed by Bill Ran
dall.
The Wildcats came back again
with a drive as they moved the bffl
up to their own 47 yard line. It was
here again that Andrews great lit
tle halfback Terry Postell took a
handoff and swept wide around end
and behind terrific downfield block
ing went 53 yards for a touchdown.
However an official had a flag
down on the 15 yard line that nul
lified the score.
Andrews led at the half 7-6. The
3rd quarter developed into a defen
sive battle as both teams could
not get their offenses rolling. As
the 4th quarter began Andrews
started on another drive to move
the ball down to Swain's 44 yard
line. Here again Postell took a
handoff and knifed into the end
zone for the touchdown. The extra
point was added as Olin Postell
crashed off tackle
Brysn City came back on another
drive and Corbin took a short pass
from 6 yards out for the score.
Brendell missed the try for the ex
tra point- Terry Postell took the
next kickoff and the elusive little
halfback returned it for 51 yards;
Swain stopped the Wildcats on
their own 32 yard line. Then with
only 2 minutes remaining they
filled the air with desperation pass
es.
Hubert Meyers made a circus
catch as he intercepted a pass on
' the 19 yard line as the game ended.
| Terry Postell Andrews 120
pounds halfback who is very small
but plays a very big game of foot
ball was again the workhouse in
the backfield as he carried the b ill
22 times and averaged 4-3 yards
'per carry.
Archie Meyers and Steve Higdon
continued to move the larger Swain
tackles out to open up huge holes
in the line where the Andrews
backs fired into.
Defensively the Wildcats did a
tremendous job as they completely
bottled up Bryson City attacks.
Gerald Curtis, Andrews rugged
end, would not let the Maroon Dev
ils get by as he continously spilled
the runner. .
Andrews 140 pounds line backer.
Harold Murphy, a fierce tackier,
did a very good job backing up the
line. Also James Franklin, Sonny
Bush, Scotty Hardin played a ter
rific game up front where most
games are won or lost.
Next week the Cherokee Indians
will come to Andrews for a game
beginning at 8 p. m.

Good Woodland
Makes Poop Pasture
The old saying "You can't have
your cake and eat it too" applies
to many farming practices- But
farmers with woodland should es
pecially bear this little bit of phil
osophy in mind when they graze
cattle in their woodland.
John H. Gilliam, district fores
ter for the N. C- Agricultural Ex
tension Service, says that woodland
simply cannot produce a good
crop of timber and a healthy herd
of livestock at the same time. One
or the other is bound to suffer.
One reason for this is that live
stock can cause heavy damage by
trampling young trees. When sur
face roots are trampled and young
trees are broken or damaged, in
sects and disease will attack, tak
ing a greater toll. Since cattle will
usually eat the best seedlings in
an area because of their fast
growth and succulent leaves, you'll
lose the most desirable species -
This lowers the value of the wood
land and any future returns.
Another disadvantage to graz
ing woodland is that in heavily
pastured hardwood stands soil is
usually packed so hard that rains
runs off quickly and air is shut off
from the roots, causing death or at
least a slowing up in annual
growth.
Actually, good woodland usually
makes poor pasture, according to
Gilliam- An acre of good pasture
will feed as many heads of live
stock as 10 to SO acres of wood
land. Gilliam explains that grass
grown in shade has much less food
value than grass grown in full sun
light.
Gilliam says that many farm
ers would profit greatly by fenc
ing cattle out of their woodland.
It might be necessary for the far
mer to clear a few acres of wood:
land for additional pasture and
fence off a corner of the woodland
for shade but it would be well
worth his efforts
