A MARION BRIDGES
This week is filled with spectacu
lar sports. WaynesviUe takes on
Canton in their second game and the
major schools in the state have games
that will make history in football.
Waynesville will bo rated as the
underdogs in the tussle in Canton
Turkey Day, but no matter what has
been done in the past in the way of
scores of previous games, this game
is always hard fought and draws a
capacity crowd. Although Waynes
ville suffered defeat at the hands of
the Black Bears in the first '38 game,
it seems that Mountaineers are
working just that much harder to get
in shape for the tilt and seeking re
venge for the other game.
This game will be the last for
eleven of the Mountaineer squad as far
as Waynesville is concerned. The
list of seniors on the team follows:
Davis, Shook, Reeves, V. McCracken,
Co-Captain Messer, B. Milner, Tay
lor, Lcatherwood, Collins, Sease,
Phillips, and Hancock. Most of the
above list are first stringers and will
be missed in the lineup next season.
Providing that Canton gets by
Waynesville this week and Marshall
takes Mars Hill, there will bo a cham
pionship game between the two teams
at Memorial Stadium in Asheville
slated for December 3rd. If this
game is played, it will be one of the
hardest high school games of the
year for both teams, as neither has
suffered a defeat this season.
This week-end brings to a close the
football season for most of the teams
in this section. There are only a
few scheduled for the first week in
December and they are mostly in the
higher circles.
The next .sport on the list is bask
etball. Several of the schools of the
rounty have already started practice,
but due to the football season the
Mountaineers have not started.
It was reported the first of the
week by Coaches Wcatherby and
Ratcliff that the Waynesville girls
would start practice Monday. They
have been getting the feel of tho ball
this week, but no actual practice will
begin until Monday. The boys will
start their practice the first of the
week in December.
Thp f'lvde basketecrs have been
practicing for some time and will
open their schedule with Candler on
December 2 at Candler. Clyde has
the prospects of a good season.

Results Last Week
Both Waynesville and Canton have
been going through light drills the
first of the week for the game
Thanksgiving at Canton. The game
is set for 2:30 in the afternoon. This
is the second game in a two game
series between the Canton Black
Bears and the Waynesville Mountain
eers. Canton came out victorious in the
first game 18 to 6.
The Mountaineers came out of the
Swannanoa game last Friday with the
boys in fair condition, only minor cuts
and bruises and a general stiffness
was visible in Monday s scrimmage.
Coach Weatherby stated that the
team would be in fair condition to
meet the Black Bears Thursday.
For the first time in several weeks,
Shook, veteran quarter, was out in
unilorm the first of tho week. Shook
has been out of the lineup because
of arm injuries. It is expected that
he will see some action in the game
this week,
This is the last game in the 1938
season schedule and is one of the
most important games of tuo year.
Waynesville and Canton have bnttled
for the county championship for
several years and the rivalry has
grown with the passing of each sea
son. It was not until last year that
the Black Bears had won a game in a
number of years.
It was rumored that Flynn, full
back and star for the Bears would
not be in the game Thursday. Flynn
did not appear in uniform last week
against Hurris high due to a throat
ailment, but it is the opinion of Coach
Poindexter that he will be m condi
tion for the game with Waynesville.
Due to the number on the starting
lineup for the Mountaineers that are
scheduled to play their hiBt game for
Wavnesvillc, feeling was running at
a high mark. The team is working "Lines
hard and will put up a good scrap
against the Bears.

DUKE-PITTSBURGH
The game that is classed as the
highlight in football in the South
takes place at Durham, Saturday
when Duke and Pittsburgh tangle.
Duke lost to the Pitt eleven last sea
son 10-0. So far this season the Duke
Blue Devils have won all their games
and have not as yet been scored on,
while Pitt lost onegame.
ent, The Mountaineers were rated
as underdogs in the game, but play
ed an unusual game to win.
The Mountaineers were stopped in
the first half from scoring after
reaching the five yard line twice by
the Swannanoa forward wall, but in
the second half managed to cross the
scoring stripe twice.
The first score came about after
a series of completed passes with the
pass from Reeves to Leatherwood for
30 yards and a score. The last score
came about after a CO yard drive
down the field with B. Milner carrying
the ball across. All points were not
made.
The Swannanoa eleven played good
ball; making several sensational runs
through tho Waynesville line, but
after reaching close to pay dirt the
Mountaineers dug in and held. The
main threat of the game for the vis
itors took them to the four yard line
where Waynesville took advantage of
a fumble and relieved the situation
Messer, McCracken, Reeves and
B. Milner led the Mountaineers while
Ballard, Ensley, Childers and Vail
lancourt played good ball for the
visitors.

seldom in uniform at any of the
games. These prospect players are
being trained to take the place of the
varsity members that graduate.
According to Coach Ratcliff, who
has charge of this group, some prom
ising material has shown up in these
youngsters.
With the number of varsity men
on the graduation list this year it is
a good idea that these boys are train
ed beforehand rather than havo a
squad of green players to start off
with next season.
