into a muddle by checking the Raleigh aggregation's stampede to its j
first conference title in the late years . . . Ii would at least throw j
Raleigh and Durham in a tie for the title, necessating -a playoff i
and coaches Blount and Easterling of Hillside will be angling to do
just that.
LEXINGTON IS ROMPING AGAIN
Coach Charlie England's Lexington outfit is making « strong
bid for its fourth consecutive western conference double ‘ A champ
ionship and its second back to back state title . . . Lexington dropped
an early season game to Winston-Salem's triple "A' Carver High
School, which was a non conference foe . but Dunbar has run the
gauntlet, against ail comers in the double "A” division thus far.
Kannapolis was downed, 30-0; Monroe, 16-6; Mt. Airy, 42-6; and
Burlington. 20-0 Thomasville and Shelby are next on docket and the
deal favors Dunbar . . . Bui, Thomasville is always tough and no
stones are ever left unturned to upset the upstate arch-rivals in any
contest on the agenda,
Shelby Can't be the same without its great All-State quarterback.
Bobby Beil, who won a football scholarship to the University of Min
nesota ... So if Lexington can top Thomasville. Shelby should be
taken in stride.
WHO IS ON WHAT TEAM?
Some years ago little Center Colieg’ went up and defeated the
Great Harvard team. but. Center College hAd the All-Time Great
Bo McMillan . . , The Little Carlisle Indians ripped the stiff shirts
off two or three major colleges duiing their football heyday; but
they had the world's greatest all-round athlete. Jim Thorpe.
Maybe St. Paul’s and Eliabeth City has a Bo McMillan or a Jim
Thorpe ... At least St,. Aug. and Shaw think sc.
North Carolina College in Durham still has a loaded football
squad, but somehow the team is still losing . . . Maybe the players
, didn’t come "readv made" for the state pattern of football.
RECRUITING IS AN ART NOT A FAB
When a fellow pays out his money, he expects results from the
recipient. If a team has twenty-two scholarship or pert scholarship
players on its squad, how does it continue to lose games to minor
colleges with less to offer? Recruiting is not for everybody, it's a
specialty. Os course, every individual thinks he knows good football
material at sight . . . But the coach that uses the material should be
the one to make the selection, and then, if the outcome backfires,
only the selector is to blame.
Bui when s galaxy ©f pressure influence enters the pic
ture no one person shoulders the blame for the poor showing
of the prospect . , . Then, too, if a prospect can’t deliver up
to the expectations of his benefactor in due time, his athletic
benefits should he cancelled.
Back when Eddie Hurt was head coach at. Va. Seminary, before
moving over to Morgan, there were about 40 boys living in the dor
mitory and over half of them were on the football team . But
they won the CIAA championship in football and basketball . .
Hurt, lot » long time, was a top recruiter.
BITS AND BITES: Mormngside Hi in Statesville has, a good
football team this season.
Don't heat anything about Bradshaw’s Chapel Hill Lincoln Hi
Tigers.
Henderson Is whipping heads, but silent on the publicity as usual
Kinston and New Bern are average teams this year
Rocky Mount ha* been surprising with its load of sophomores.
Roanoke Rapids, Weldon and the lower eastern hi schools Just
play for the fun of it . . . Never hear a word about them.
A great number of large Negro Hi Schools in the stale
don’t trouble themselves about playing football . . . the white
school across town lias a fabulous team.
Tarteoro athletics have dipped to ; low ebb since the days of
Charlie England . . .. Ditto for Fayetteville State since the early days
of Gus Gaines and the heyday of Weeks T. Armstrong. One man can
make a difference in any situation It ail depends on. who the man jr.
