Seadogs, Farmville to Meet In Beaufort Homecoming Tilt The Beaufort Seadogs will play host to Farmville to night in the annual Beaufort homecoming game. In addi tion to a top-notch ball game, fans will see the crowning of Miss Seadog and Miss Junior Seadog during halftime cere monies. There will be a parade down ' Front Street this afternoon after ?chool. Every organization in ?chool will have a float in the pa rade. The band will march as usual, but there will be added fea tures, such as horsemen. When thinKs settle down for the ball game, fans can expect to see a real battle. Last year Farmville ; and Beaufort clashed at Farmville in the first round of the state play offs. The game, played in foul weath er, ended in a scoreless deadlock and Farmville advanced in the play-offs because of more yardage gained. Seadog coach V. M. Mor rison predicts anything but a score less tie in tonight's game. "I know that Farmville has a good team," he says. "They have won two games in the confcrence while losing only once. The Sea dogs are coming right along, too. I think the boys have done pretty well for inexperienced players but they still have a long way to go. "With Butch Hassell in the quar terback slot out passing attack has really improved. Pud Hassell is a great receiver and you can figure he will hang on to the ball once he gets it. "Pud will probably pass some from halfback, too. That gives us a left-handed passer on the left side and a right-handed passer un der the center. "I will tell you now that we are going to fill the air lanes tonight. This will give the home folks a chance to see an aerial circus like the pros put on. We will have a flanker out on nearly every play," he declared. Coach Morrison plans to start the following boys: Lonnie Dill, center, Joe Powell and Gray Simpson, 17 Let us keep summer insrde . . . ? all winter long! ?

A reminder to individual members, those who took $5.00 a year memberships: yon are elegible for any trophy, and the possibilities are very good In the trout and channel bass departments. The week had a disagreeable be ginning, but in spite of it we had good reports : offshore boats con tinued to get kings, though in re duced numbers; ocean pier fish ermen kept on getting lots of spots, with plenty of blues and speckled trout. Drift fishermen kept np a good record for bines and flounder, and one party caught 132 blues oo cut bait Just Inside the Inlet; they were fishing for only two hours. Via the grapevine we hear that Jack Windley of Beaufort, surf fishing at Shackleford, caught 25 nice speckled trout. With Thursday dawning bright and clear and the winds tamed to gentle-to-moderate, the outlook for the weekend is very food in all departments. Even the sound piers, which have to take a beating in a nor-castcr should do well. We asked Gerald Smith about the replacement of the section of pier removed by the storm. "Coming along pretty well," waa his answer. "Folks could fish right now if they could Jump that far."

Glenmore KENTUCKY STRAIGHT BOUBBON WHISKEY ? 86 PROOF _ J Morehead, Wallace Game Tops East Gridiron Slate The big game in eastern North Carolina will be played at Wallace at 8 tonight when the Morehead City Eagles and the Wallace-Rose Hill Bulldogs tangle for the lead in the AAC Coastal Plains Conference. Both teams have been pointing for this game all year and should be ready to get down to business. This will be the first time the teams have met during the regular season. Before, they aM ways clashed in state play offs. Last year the Wallace same was considered by most fans to be the most exciting game of the year for the Eagles. Despite the fact that the Eagles dominated the play, Wallace held a lead going into the final minutes of play. It took a last-ditch Eagle ral ly to produce a 19-14 victory over the Bulldogs. There are plenty of fans at Wal lace who declare their team should have won last year and the Bull dogs are out to reverse the decision this season. The team that wins tonight will be virtually assured a spot in the state play-offs. According to the Greensboro Daily News poll, the Bulldogs are the top AAC team in the state. The same poll has the Eagles in the number three position with Ahoskie sandwiched between. In pre-season predictions Wallace was given plenty of publicity as the logical successor to Morehead City's AAC championship. The Eagles, who lost eight first string players through gradutaion and Gerald Jones through ineligibility, were not considered a strong threat. The Bulldogs have lived up to their advance notices, winning five straight games, most of them by convincing margins. The Eagles, on the other hand, have upset the apple cart for the pre season ex perts. After losing an opening game verdict to New Bern, the Eagles have won four straight, the last three by shutouts. The defensive play of the Eagle line has been tre mendous in shutting the scoring door on Swaosboro, Jones Central and Havelock. Coaches Norman Clark and Hugh Gordon give credit to the amazing show of the Eagles to the rapid de velopment of some green ball play ers. One of the outstanding exam plci is Jerry Garner, a senior tackle. Even though he is a senior, Gar ner is out for his first year of foot H > ball. He assured himself of a start ing position in pre season practice and has improved with every game. Another great effort has been turned in by Leslie Nelson, a soph omore who is expected to become one of the best linemen ever to leave Morehead City High. Bobby Willis, who started at cen ter for the Eagles last week, is an other player who has come through with flying colors. Mokey Lasitter, former starting center, has been shifted to a guard position, where he is turning in a fine perform ance. Ends Jim Lawrence and Johnny Baker had a good night against Havelock last week, each one catching a touchdown pass from quarterback Jackie McQueen. Mc Queen has been handling the ball well under center and has proved to be an excellent runner and good passer. Sophomore halfback Ted Garner is another bright spot in the Eagle picture. When Jones was lost for the season, many observers could see no one to move in for him. Gary Guthrie was given a chance but he proved too small to make headway through the rugged lines the Eagles have faced this year. Garner, who saw limited experi ence as a freshman last year, got his chance and made good. He has been a consistent, if not sensational, runner. He has yet to break away for a long touchdown run but his power is shown in the fact that he is nearly never stopped behind the line of scrimmage. The "Old Pros" have come through this year just about as advertised. Tackle Lynwood Dur ham is playing the best ball of his career. His blocking has im proved greatly on offense. On de fense he has been shifted to middle linebacker where he is a real star. Halfback James Guthrie and full back Freddie Oglcsby are running well and playing good defensive games. Both boys were stars last year and are living up to expecta tions. With the possible exception of New Bern, Wallace will be the sternest test of the season for the Eagles. Coach Thell Overman has a rugged crew that knows plenty of football. Both teams will probably unveil new plays for the game, though no drastic formation changes or "se cret weapons" are predicted. Both teams operate on the theory that the team that wants to win the most and plays the hardest usually wins. Regardless of which team wins, the winner will consider to night's game the "big one." Golf Clinic C. C. McCuiston, golf pro at the country club, will conduct a golf clinic at 9:30 a.m. Saturday, weather permitting. The clinic will be for children of members only. The charge is 25 cents per child. Rooftop Recreation Akron, Ohio (AP) ? The play ground for Zion Lutheran School is on its roof. There was no space around the downtown area build ing for play, so the youngsters go up on top. High walls protect them. Morehead Eagles Hold Third Place In Grid Ratings The Morehead City Eagles re mained in third place in the weekly Greensboro Daily News poll Wed nesday. Wallace-Rose Hill was ranked on top, followed by Ahos kie. The Eagles and Wallace will tangle tonight for the Coastal Plains Conference title. Each has won one game in the conference. Wallace has a victory over Pam lico arid Morehead City holds a decision over Jones Central. The Eagles are expected to have little trouble disposing of Pamlico, while Wallace will be favored to wl>ip Jones Central when those teams meet. The big game in the east will be at Wallace tonight. Coaches Norman Clark and Hugh Gordan say it will be a real battle and suggest that all Eagle fans make plans to attend the game to give the boys a boost from the stands.
