It was only the second loss of the season for Coach Don Par ker's charges in 10 starts and was a damaging blo\v to the quint's battle with Rutherfordton-Spin dalb for a berth in the WNCII SAA tournament. The Cliffside game was hotly contested, with a big argument taking place after Umpire Owens' foul call on Guard Don McCarter with Kings Mountain ahead by three points and three and one half minutes left -in thb game. Kings> Mountain spectators re port that McCarter was pushed into the wall from behind while driving in for a layup shot and Umpire Owens set off the fire works by charging McCarter with a personal foul. Players charged the court and during the mtele Ollie Harris, Kings Mountain's ace center, was ejected from the game by Umpire Owens. No Cliffside player was 'ejected.

Kings Mountain and R.-S. split their two-game se ries. Harris also paced the shooting in the Belmont win last Thursday, hitting 20 points as Kings Moun tain pulled away from a tight 23 21 score after 15 seconds in the second half to win going away. The Mountaineers startled cau tiously and at the end of the first period led by 15-8. The winners slipped in the second quarter, however, when the visitors capi talized on bad Kings Mountain shooting and closed thte gap to 23 18 at the half. After Belmont's quick opening goal in the third period, Kings Mountain went off on a five-point splurge in the next three and one half minutes while holding the losers scorelteSs. Don Wentz hit a free throw for Belmont's 22nd point with 3:04 left in the period. Harris hit a hook shot on a re bound of Hope's miss, George got another on a Hope miss rebound C. E.
