Warren St. SheDiy Carlton's Club Wins Bowl Came Coach Evervtte Carlton's East htgh school all-star team com pletely out-playted the West club in the eighth annual Asheville Optimist Bowl game at Asheville last Thursday afternoon, winning the contest 7-0. Guard Ken Cloninger and Tac kle Dewitt Blanton of Kings Mountain and Badks Buster Led ford, Max Hayntes and Brice Moore, of Shelby, were outstand ing for the winners. Cloninger received much no tice for his stellar defensive play and Moore Intercepted a pass to set up the game's only score. Led ford ran to, the one-yard line and Moore went over for the score. The West club got into East territory only twice in the game, getting past midfleld for the first time in the third period and the closest they got was to the East 26. Coach Carlton assumed the head coaching duties when Bur ton Bargar of Valdese and four of his playters were unable to make the trip because of the Wes tern conference playoff game, which failed to materialize when Shelby backed into thte South Group crown via forfeits by Rutherfordton-Spindale. The East players were picked for single wing play, with Coach Bargar's four stars to be the club's backbone and the West club reportedly took the game lightly in' view of the -reported "disorganization" in the East camp. Coach Carlton was assisted by Forest City Coach Bill Cordell and the two welded a powerful forward wall, a potent set-defen se and a strong running attack in the short pre-game practice period. Buddy Mayes, Kings Mountain tackle, drew praise from Coach Carlton for his work as team manager. ?
