Other Beaufort players who are sure to see action are end Bobby lit aft in, center Pier son Willis and tackle Tommy Oglesfty. Oglesby playecf foi Morehead City hut now lives in Beaufort. Coach Clark says Oglesby was one of the greatest high school line men he has ever seen. The backfieldf got a boost Sun day when Kemp "Baby" Wickizer reported for practice. Wickizer, who pfayetf fullback for East Caro lina, worked out at that position with Hugh Gordon at Quarterback, Danny O'Neal and Gerald Jones Lt halfbacks.

Coach Calrk can alternate backfields after each offensive play if he wants to. Either backfield should be able to' move the ball if the line gives them a few blocks. Mason is a good passer and handles the ba41 welF under the eenter. Waiter Willis and Jimmy Willis were favorites when they played for the Eagles a few years ago. Taylor is st real speedster who is well-known to baseball fans in the county. He had the reputation of being the fastest man in the coun ty league two years ago. Among the ends who will be available for the contest are Lin wood Swinson, an all -conference star last year, Bobby Martin and Jim Fodrie of Biaufbrt and Bobby Bass a former Morehead City player.

Morehead Little League Prepares for Tourney The Morehead City Little League voted at a eall meeting of the pres dent. Bill Chalk, to accept the invi tation to hold the eastern regional tournament in Morehead City next summer. Participating in this tournament will be teams from Morehead City, Beaufort, Chevry Point, Greenville, Tarboro, Warsaw, Robersonville, and Fort Bragg. The acceptance of the tourna ment by the Morehead City Little League group presents a further challenge fo the local league in that it must ready the new field at the Camp Glenn school in time for tournament play. U bas necessitated a speed up io the time table for the local group. The league members, under the leadership of the president, are trying to solicit advertising on the outfield fence. The signs are to be sold on a two-year basis for $35 or $25 for one season. As best as possible, signs will be located on the fence to the advertiser's preference. The signs are four feet by 8 feet and will be painted by the league. The Morehead Little League has an amibtious program before it. It proposes to make the Little League field first class. There will be a restraining fence down the side lines tying in to the backstop. Dugouts for the participating teams, seating down the side lines for patrons, and a concession stand.
