I Blaine Baugus, Stranded Alone, Kills His Bear By LOCKWOOD PHILLIPS Blaine Baugus, Mr. International Paper Company in Carteret Coun ty, kept a date to meet the Gatlin burg, Tenn, bear hunter, B. G. Foster at Core Creek Service Sta tion at 6:15 Saturday morning. After standing around awhile, Baugus mentioned that he had a date with Foster and someone at the station said, "Why Foster and party and his fancy bear dogs left here at 5:30." Baugus took off in his car to try to catch up with the party. He went down the Adams Creek Road and turned off toward the Neuse River on the Becton Road and, after he had gone about a mile on the Becton Road, stopped his car and shut off his engine to listen for the baying of Foster's bear dogs. All he heard was the chattering of squirrels. lie decided he might just as well go squirrel hunting on his own. He loaded his gun with fine shot, stepped out of his car and began a stealthy search for squirrel and the first thing he saw was a big, fat bear up a white oak tree eating acorns like a kid with the forbid den cooky jar. Just as stealthily, he went back to his car and reloaded with buck shot. Each of the three shells he put in made the customary load ing sound and Baugus was certain the bear must have heard tne noise. Hoping to catch the acorn-eater before he fled into the thickets, Baugus ran as fast as he could to the white oak tree and, sure enough, the bear was coming down to make a get-away. Baugus fired, three times, but the distance was so great (meas urement afterward showed it to be about 90 yards) that he felt sure he had only wounded the animal. He returned to his car, reloaded, and was about to set off to find Foster and alert him that a wound ed bear was in the neighborhood when he decided to go back and have a look. What he found was a very dead bear. All that morning Foster and his party hunted and all they found were the tracks of 11 bears in a field. Foster, by the way, says that there are more bears around this year than ever before. He ascribes the reason for this to be the dam age Helenc did to the bears' feed ing grounds in the swamps. He says the bears are now forced to raid the farmers' fields which lie on high ground. Pictures of Baugus and his bear will appear in Friday's paper, that is, if Baugus is as good a pho tographer as he is a hunter. County Cage Schedules NEWPORT Nov. 11? Jasper, home Nov. 15?

Tackle Lynwood Durham and halfback James Guthrie are rated by their coaches as two of the top collcgc prospects in this area. Durham, a husky 20n-pounder, played his finest ball this year. He was offensive right tackle and mid dle linebacker on defense. He was shifted to the linebacker spot mid - way through the second game of the season and looked as though he was made for the position, gen erally regarded ai the most im portant defensive position on the team. - - Even as a sophomore Durham was an outstanding performer. He was named to the All-Seashore Conference team both his sopho more and junior years. This year he appears to be a sure bet for honors on a higher level. Guthrie has had a great season, scoring 80 points in the eight games played by the Eagles. In seven games (statistics not avail able for the Cary game) he car ried the ball 110 times for 921 yards. That was good for an aver age of 8.4 yards per carry. Last year Guthrie was a mem ber of the All-Seashore Conference team and as a sophomore he was a second string all-conference player. He was voted ttie best of fensive player for the Eagles last year. Another outstanding collcge pros poet is Gerald Jones, who was in eligible this year. Jones, the out standing player on the Eagle team for the past two years, was Guth rie's running mate at halfback on Score for Seadogs Lynwood Durham . , . great tackle last year's state championship team.

Charles Dickinson, 89-pound half back, scored the final Seadog touchdown. Dickinson, who stands 4'11" tall, went into the game for one play and hit paydirt. When Butch Hassell handed the ball off to Dickinson, the Seadog line bulldozed the Swansboro play ers aside and the Beaufort backs surrounded Dickinson as he scam pered across the goal. No one seemed to mind when the Scadogs failed to score the extra point. The score remained at 33 6 until the game ended a few min utes later.
