play called back and a five-yard
penalty marked off against More
head City for offsides.

Becton and Calvin Jones and tackle
John Smith looked most impressive
while Lonnie Dill, Gray Simpson,
Joe Powell and David Willis were
working hard to bold the Eagle of
fense.
Butch Hassell, who was supposed
to give the Eagle pass defense a
stern test, bad a rough night He
was rushed so hard he seldom had
time to find a man in the open.
Lasitter, Durham, Leigh and Nel
son broke through the middle of the
Beaufort line consistently to put
the pressure on Hassell.
Ray Hassell, a freshman, had hit
troubles in the punting department.
Filling in for his cousin Pud Has
sell, his lack of experience hurt the
Seadogs on ? couple of occasions.

halfback spot to more than make
ud for his short Dunts.

the Eagles. The Seadogs will wind
up their season this Friday night
when they will play host to Swan*

M3REHEAD CITY
Marion Mills
Wins Club Title
By LOCKWOOD PHILLIPS
Marion Mills is Morchead City
Golf and Country Chib's new golf
champion, the sccond in the club's
six-year history.
In the club's early days Warren
Beck won the championship and re
tained it because a championship
tournament, usually a yearly event,
was not staged until this 1958 tour
nament.
Mills won his victory Sunday in
the finals against Horace Tyler,
two up over a 38-hole grind in gusty
winds.
At the end of the first U holes
Mills had Tyler five down.
Tyler rallied somewhat on the
sccond 18 holes to wind up only two
down.
Mills' medal score for the long
Journey was 151, Tyler's 154.
Tyler gained the right to play
Mills in the finals Sunday by de
feating L. G. Dunn Saturday in a
semi final event.
That match was played through
beating rain over 18 boles. Dunn
turned Tyler two down at the end
of the first nine and went into the
12th hole with Tyler three down
and it appeared as though predic
tions of his victory over Tyler
would stick.
But Tyler unlimbered against the
southpaw terror, Dunn, and wound
up victor by a two and one count.
