Bethel At Home Friday I
Afternoon Against Murphy
After successive losses to power
houses Canton and Waynesville, the
Bethel Blue Demons hope to break
into the win column Friday after
noon In a home against the unbeat
en Murphy Bulldogs.
The game will be one of the fea
tures of the annual Pigeon Valley
Fair, which opened today at Beth
el School.
Although they have been out
classed each time, the Blue De
mons have shown promise, with
good line play-?sparked by Joe
Bob Fish, Gerald Hill, and Daryl
Gant?and a nice passing attack,
with Carroll Lowe on the throw
ing end.
Rack Rilly Burress also looked
good last week against the Moun
taineers.
In their two games this season,!
the Murphy Bulldogs have beaten
Andrews, 7-0, and Sylva, 12-6.
Bonus Boy Stars
In Debut
NEW YORK (API?The New
York Giants expect big things
from Michael Francis MoOormiok
for two reasons. The first Is the
fact that they agreed to give htm
a $00,000 bonus over a period of
years. The second reason for thbir
ontlmlsm is the manner in which
MeCormick handled himself In his
debut. In one inning of relief j
work In a losing game against the
Phillies, MeCormick retired the
side on six pitches. He got Stan
Lopata, Del Ennls and Jim Green
grass.
Coach Bruce Jaynes of WTHS
announced this morning that senior
Charles Robinson will start in place
of co-captain Carrol! Hooper, regu
lar halfback, who underwent an ap
pendicitisOperation Sunday, and
will be out of action for an unde
termined period of time.
Hooper has been reported recov
ering rapidly from his appendec
tomy. and is expected to leave the
hospital today.
Expected to give Robinson a
hand on the halfback chores
against Reynolds tomorrow night
is Tommy Parris.
Commenting on the severe set
back to his team's hopes. Coach
Jaynes pointed out that Hooper is
outstanding both on offense and
defense and is an excellent "team
man."
Last week in the opener against
Bethel, Hooper scored two touch
downs, one on a short pass from
.tack Holder and another on a
OR-vard run with an intercepted
pass.
Hooper's role as co-eaptain will
be taken over temporarily by Neal
Palmer, the team's other starting
halfback, who has been appointed
alternate captain.
In whipping Bethel last week.
53-6. the Mountaineers disolaved a
smooth, quick-moving ground game
and a line that limited the Blue
Demons to an average of slightly
U ss than 13 yards per quarter
Coach Jaynes praised his squad
for its teamwork and lauded the
running of Grastv and Palmer and
the ball handling of Lane. He
also eommented that "the entire
line played well?both the starters
and the reserves."
Wavnegville's opponent here to

Here And Yonder
The Sportscope
By BOB CONWAY
"Into oat h lifo some rain must fall."
l.ast Sunday night Coach Brute Jayrjcs had a whole cloud
burst fall On his head when Carroll Hooper, halfback and co-captain
~ of the Mountaineer football team, underwent an operation for ap
J pendicitis
Fortunately. Carroll came through the operation well and will
be back to school before too long, but it will be some time before
he's ready to venture out on the gridiron again.
Until Hooper's attack of appendicitis, skies were looking sun
ny for the Gold and Black pigskinners and local fans were look
" forward with relish to coming games with Canton and llenderson
- vtlle
Now, it's hard to tell how much Waynesville's T-formatlon at
tack will bo weakened by Hooper's absence.
Coacb Jaynes points out that the Saunook speedster was not
J only a fine runner, but also a valuable defensive man ? especially
on pass protection <As an example, Carroll ran 98 yards with a
Bethel pass last week and 54 yards with another Blue Devil aerial
.in 1955.)
Oi. the bright side of the picture, however, is the fact that
2 the Mountaineers have a sizeable grid squad and it may be that
^somewhere in the ranks of the reserves there may be an able re
placment for Hooper. It's not likely that Coach Jaynes can come up
-with an all-around performer like his ailing co-captaln, but some sub
stitute may be ready to play a lot of football.
so
?ws 1 '
Looking over comparative statistics on the Bethel game this
7 year. and last season, we see that the Mountaineers outrushed the [
"Blue Demons last Friday 560 to 51 yards, while the edge In 1955
-was only 101 to 73 yards.
In first downs, Waynesville picked up 17 first downs to Bethel's
1 five last week, but the margin in first downs last year was only 11
2 to seven.
One of the most promising things about the 1956 Mountaineers
-is their teamwork and team balance. Although there are a number
-of capable players on the squad, it doesn't appear now that any one
~ boy will far outshine any of the others.
Tn 1954 and 1955, stopping Waynesville's running attack was
largely a matter of trying to put the brakes on the Mountaineer
juggernaut, J. W. Stevens. But this year, all of the WTHS backs are
accomplished ground-gainers. Until Hooper went out, all four start
ers were potential touchdown-getters everytime they carried the ball.
Somettme-Veu-Cant-Wln-Dept: Early In the fourth quarter
halfback Bill Moore of WTHS made a nice run through the center
of the Bethel line fer a touchdown, but the ball was brought book
and the Mountaineers penalised.
Clyde's present football team may prove to be the ctrongest in
school history, and the Cardinals have an excellent chance of com
? piling a much better record this season than last year's mark of 5-4-1.
But the Maroon and Gold eleven will have to go all out to cop the
championship, won last year by Spruce Pino.
In three games this year, the Marshall Tornadoes have clob
bered everything to sight and atfll are unacored on. to the flame

meet their tgughest opposition to
tlate on Friday night when they
journey to Brevard for an im
portant Blue Kid tte Conference

beaten Hendersonville Bearcats,
the game at Brevard is a big one
for the Black Bears. For the Blue
Devils, beaten last week at lien- .
dersonville, 33-21, another loss
would just about drop Brevard out
of the conference race.
In their opener, Canton halted
Bethel. 23-0, and then grounded
the Enka Jets last week, 24-0.

Branson, Jackie Conard and Skip
per Haynes have been the leaders

Before dropping their first game
to Hendersonville last Friday, Bre
vard defeated Blue Ridge, S. C?

last week and termed the losers
"inexperienced but big."
The Cardinals' pilot said his

Bakersville last Friday after an
outstanding performance the previ

"We suffered from the heat, and
our offense was way off," he re
marked.
