Kickoff time is 2 j o'clock in Due Stadium. The rejuvenated Blue Devils have] already bounced back strongly from j the Virginia debacle by holding j mighty Georgia Tech to a 14-14 tie. ] It was the first blotch on an other ! wise perfect record for Tech, the nation’s fifth ranking team last j week. The Blue hevils played the I highly regarded Yellow Jackets on ! virtually even terms all the way. ; Coach Bill Murray s proteges are determined to follow this magnifi cent performance with a win over the Deacons on Saturday. On the other hand, the unpredic table Deacons will be doing their ! utmost to break back into the win ! column following last week's sur- I prising setback at the hands of ! Ctemson's fired-up Tigers, who turned in their finest performance of tiie season. The Deacs staged a fine comeback following their first loss at William and Mary by de feating George Washington 27 to 13 and romping over North Caro lina 39 to 7.

However, the coaches are hopeful all will be in better physical condition for the Duke game Saturday. The Blue Devils will throw a high-powered split T offense at the Deacons Saturday. The key run ners are “Piney” Field, Charlie Smith, Charlie Niven, James (Red) Smith, Jack Kistler, and Quarter back Jerry Barger.

Boone Trail High defeated Angier yester day afternoon in a swell, close ball game by a 27-22 score to com plete an undefeated season, capture the Harnett County Title, and grab tire Fonur-County crown. Boone Trail won eight straight games, which equalled Islington's feat of last year. BT’s victims were Deep River, Cameron. Broadway, Golds ton. Coats, Benson, Lillington and Angier. The Angier boys played a fine, inspired ball game, but it was Boone Trail's day as the heads-up BT backs refused to take a loss and found away to get a gain on oil occasions. When trapped behind the line by hard-charging linemen, the Trailer backs would dodge and weave and either slip away from them for a running gain, or they would finally locate someone in the open and toss hsn the ball for\a I_. • TURKEYS Chickens Ducks * FOR ’ The HOLIDAYS ASK FOR WIMBERLY'S DRESSED POULTRY 111 Ml mill ■■ Hill o W« have contracted to haodlo tho Wo have set and maintained the finest grade es turkeys available for highest standard of milk feeding owr the coming holiday season.

The two stand tied in conference competition so far this year, and in all games, Lenoir Rhyne is a mite ahead of Elon just because it’s played more games. Lenior Rhyne’s Bears chewed up Guilford 33 to 0 last Saturday to bring about the tie in conference standings. Winner of Saturday night’s bat tle will almost undoubtedly take the conference crown. > If Son wins, it will have only Guilford remaining between it and a perfect record for conference games. Guilford being currently in I last place, without a victory to its credit, that should not prove dif ficult. Lenoir Rhyne would have a some what harder task if it beats Elon.
