BULLDOGS BOWL BOUND
G. W. Eleven Out To
Avenge Last Year's Defeat
Lanier Field, Brunswick, Georgia, Friday December 5th,
will be the scene of the third annual “Golden Isle Bowl.”
Gardner-Webb’s Bulldogs will entertain Georgia Military
Academy in what stacks up to be a whale of a ball game.
Very little is known concerning the G.M.C. boys, but ru
mors out of Georgia say that our boys will have a job on
their hands if they are to take their foes. The Golden Isle
Bowl is not new to the members of our team, especially the
Sophomores, Last year our boys ^
were invited to play and were de
feated in one of the most thrilling
Junior Colleje Classics of the year,
3-0, by a strong South Georgia team.
The Georgia touchdown was set up
by an intercepted pass with only
three minutes to go.
Our team this year does not have
the depth and experience which the
“51” Bulldogs had, but in the words
of Coach Norman Harris, who took

over the reins left by the departure
of Coach Wayne Bradburn, “We may
not have the depth, but what we
lack in that we make up in the
heart, fortitude and the will to win.”
This season has been earmarked
with many bright and tense mo
ments. After coming up with three
straight ties at the hands of Ashe-
ville-Biltmore, E. M. I., and Lees-
McRae, the boys rallied to defeat
N. Greenville 14-0 at Greer. The fol
lowing week they were handed their
first defeat in two years by a Mars
Hill eleven. The following week they
were awarded a forfeit by P. J. C.
and the following week took the
most important game of the season,
as far as the boys were concerned.
They had tied a strong Asheville-
Biltmore in their first tilt of the
season and were not convinced that
the better team had won. Their
chance came in Asheville’s Memori
al Stadium on Nov. 8, and by vir
tue of taking that game by a 14-6
margin, they were invited to the
bowl game in Brunswick.
The student body would like to
commend the team in their spirit,
sportsmanship and fair play and
wish for them the best of luck. We
sincerely hope that the “Bulldogs of
Gardner-Webb will come out on top
when they are once again Bowl
Bound.
