To Mountaineer Win
At Hendersonville
Although Hendersonville put up
a stubborn defense that kept the
Mountaineers down to conventional
football through all but the last
minutes of Friday night's game,
the Waynesville forward wall
opened the door for four touch
down drives and blocked three
Bearcat punts, one being converted
into a two-point safety.
This, added to Ervin Shook's
three place-kicks for extra points,
brought the final score to 29-0;
upping the total for the season to
201 points while their opposition's
score remained at 18 for the six
games played.
Halfback Bob Milner crossed the
goal line first after a drive from
Hendersonville's 38 during the first
period; bursting through left end
for a 16 yard scoring sprint. Early
in the second quarter, after the
Bearcats kicked out on their 30,
Shook took off around right end
the first play, lateraled to Carol
Grahl and he went into the end
zone standing up. With both place
ments good, the score at half-time
was 14-0.
The third period went scoreless,
with the Mountaineers driving deep
into Bearcat territory. Early in
the final quarter, Grahl tossed a
long pass which bounced from the
receiver's finger tips and into the
hands of Bill Lowe, Henderson
ville back who returned it from the
end zone to his eight yard line.
Waynesville forwards then broke
up the attempted punt, Lowe re
covered the ball and was smothered
in the end zone for a safety. Fol
lowing the kickoff from Hender
sonville's 20, the Mountaineers
drove back steadily from mid-field
and the last six yards was made by
Grahl on a pass from Robinson.
Shook's placement made it 23-0.
Hendersonville had to punt three
plays after they took the next kick
oir. Brackett and Milner began
grinding out yardage, and from the
one-foot line Minett smashed over
right guard for the final touch
down. Shook and Milner came on
the field for the extra point, but
the kick went wild and the score
remained 29 to 0.
Time ran out as the Mountaineers
began setting up another score.
Owen's kickoff to Hendersonville
was fumbled, Waynesville took over
on the 32. A penalty set them back
10 yards. A long pass to J. D. Cald
well took the ball to the 15, and
the faked punt play was uncovered,
with Shook tossing to Brackett,
who was tackled on the 12 as the
final whistle blew.
First Quarter
With Coach Weatherby putting
his heavier players on the left side
of the line Messer kicked off, and
the return gave the Bearcats the
ball on their 28. Pace picked up 2
yards on two plays, tried a third
clown punt which was blocked; he
recovering on the 5. His next punt
went to Shook on the Bearcat 38.
Robinson picked up 7 yards, then
Shook got to the 21 for first down.
Robinson hit the line for 5 more,
then Milner went between left
tackle and end to the goal line.
Shook converted. 7-0.
Hendersonville returned Messer's
next kickofT from their 8 to the 22.
Paul Johnson ran around left end
for 15, then lost 9 the next play.
A penalty gave them 5, Pace added
6 more, but they had to kick, the
ball going out on Waynesville's 48.
A steady drive, interrupted by two
penalties, went to the Bearcat 29.
Second Quarter
Shook tossed a long pass for
Messer which Lowe intercepted on
Hendersonville's 10. On first play
they lost 10, then kicked out of
bounds on their 30. Shook lateraled
to Grahl in a play around right
end, and excellent blocking gave
the fullback the chance to hit
high gear and travel into scoring
their music makers.
N. C. STATE seemed to have
surprised a lot of folks by trim
ming Wake Forest, but the Wolf
pack passes filled the winning pre
scription when halted by that hefty
Deacon line. Carolina probably
will consider them strong enough
opponents to be included on their
schedule next season. If they keep
up the brand of ball they've played
so far they look like a cinch for
Southern Conference honors . . .
DUKE had less trouble than was
expected with Richmond, but know
what to expect at West Point this
Saturday. If they can upset the
Cadets, 'twould be a day- of glory
for the Blue Devils. Georgia Tech
will give anybody a battle, and
play at Durham Nov. 2nd. Their
big-margin win over previously un
beaten L. S. U. can not be taken
lightly. Nov. 2nd will find Caro
lina at Knoxville, where the Ala
bama Crimson Tide was washed to
a pale pink by the Volunteers last
week.

Hendersonville's Burnet returned
the next kickoff (by Milner) to the
20. Reverses clicked and two plays
later the Bearcats crossed into
Waynesville's 42. In three plays
they added 9'i yards, but Hudson
fumbled his fourth down plunge;
Waynesville took over and the ball
see-sawed around mid-field until
half-time intermission.
Third Quarter
Messer's kick was returned to
the 20. Three plays later Lowe
kicked out on the 47. Wavnesville
drove back until Milner fumbled
and Lowe recovered on the Bear
cat 10. The kick was taken by
Shook on his 27, his blockers shift
ed to the right and off he went for
the longest run of the game. His 72
yard touchdown jaunt, however,
was called back due to a clipping
penalty.
Then Minett picked up 10, but
Grahl fumbled on a reverse and
Hendersonville's McGraw recover
ed; which was countered when
Buddy Wilson a subguard who
turned in one of the best perfor
mances of the night intercepted a
pass on his 20 and went back to
Hendersonville's 48. Robinson and
Milner drove to the 18.
Fourth Quarter
On second play Grahl 's pass was
intercepted in the end zone by
Lowe and returned to the 8. Hen
dersonville's punt was blocked for
the safety, making the score 16-0.
From the kick-off at the 20. Milner
returned to the 46. Brackett added
14, Robinson 5, Messer took a pass
for 7, and after two other short
gains Robinson passed to Grahl

down. Shook came in to make it
23-0.
Waynesville held the Bearcats,
started driving again with 37 yards
to go. Six plays later Minett made
the final touchdown. The game
was over shortly afterwards.

ALL IN KNOWING HOW and
10 year old John Reynolds of Winston-Salem
proved he is acquainted
with the right technique. Unham
pered with expensive fishing tackle,
but rather equipped only with a
balloon stick, a piece of thread, and
a bent needle for a hook, John re
cently went fishing in Forsyth
County. A few minutes of fishing
netted him a 14-inch crappie weigh
ing approximately two pounds
which lie hauled in via the balloon
slick a very simple procedure he
declares.
Refer Woody, age 7, is another
young angler who is in the know on
the right fishing techniques. Roger
proved his proficiency in the art
recently at Fontana Lake when lie
made a successful catch of eight
bass alter a short while of fishing
with pole and line. Roger has a pic
ture of his fine catch as proof that
it isn't just another fish tale.
SEPTEMBER VIOLATIONS
HIGH Prosecution reports for the
entire month reveal that September
ranks third in the number of game
and fish law violations in the State
in any one month so far this year.
September with 423 convictions was
lopped only by May with 480 and
June with 444.
Total fines for the month mount
ed to $2,815.95; and court costs
reached $2,(i88.49, as compared
with the previous month, August,
with 312 convictions, fines, $1,
4G3.48, and costs, $1,896.71.

CONSERVATION L. O N F E R -ENCE
At the annual Conservation
Conference of t he Garden Club of
North Carolina held in Ralehli.
October 10th and 11th, Dr. Willis
King, fisheries biologist for the
Division of Game and Inland
Fisheries spoke to the group on
the relation of pollution to conser
vation of fish, the effect of pollu
tion on fish life. Dr. King pointed
out that polluted waters may have
the direct effect of either poisoning
or causing suffocation to fish due
to depletion of oxygen. Pollution
also may destroy spawning areas
and feeding areas by depositing a
layer of sediment over the bottom
of the stream. A third effect it may
have is that of making the habitat
undesirable, not necessarily killing
the fish; but fish may not enter pol
luted waters for migration or
spawning.
Dr. King continued by explain
ing several ways of attacking the
problem of pollution. A solution
may be effected, he pointed out,
by two principal ways: (1) through
improved legislation to replace the
present laws which are inadequate

this Saturday's opponents of the
Mountaineers, scored touchdowns
in three periods of last week-end's
game at Brevard to win 18 to 13
on the Brevard field.
Showing a fast team, making full
use of deceptive plays and driv
ing power, the Grcenies drove to
a marker in the first period. Shu
ford plunged through center for
the first touchdown, and hit the
middle of the line later in the game
for another. Andrews scored the
second Christ School marker in
