SCOTTIES DEFEAT PRESBYTERIAN *. COLLEGE ANKLETS IN ll'DDY BATTLE On a cold, wet, dreary November • afternoon the fighting Scotties of T’JC outfought and outolayed the "B" team from Clinton, South Carolina. This was the homecoming game for PJC, and a happy one indeed for the faculty and students. It took less than fovir minutes of play after the opening kick off for the Scotties to push across the goal line for their first score of the afternoon, Horace Prevatte threw a running pass to Claude Con ner in the end zone accounting for the first score. Hub Knox scored the second touchdown in the closing minutes of the second quarter. The score stood at 12-0. The Anklets came back in the second half to score on a seventy yard run. The paT.'crful oGot-ty forvrard wall'dc- * cided the game by blocking three punts, the last one by "Rabbit" Pre vatte, with Mullins falling on the * ball in the end zone. Our hats are off to the team for a hard fought, well played game. The present standing for the team is four wins, two ties, and one loss.

Prom the looks of things around school the col lege will be well represented on the basketball court. The team last year was composed of Claude Connor, Ollie Bass, Hub Knox, Clovis Baker, and several other return ing letter men. Their record did not look too impressive on paper, but the team played the majority of their games against larger schools with more experience. Presbyterian Junior College is fortunate in having Robert Doak for a coach this year, who himself was a fine basketball player at i'^orth Carol ina State. Coach Doak is looking forward to having a successful season, so let's get behind him with the school spirit shown throughout the football season. "Redbirds” Psx^broke Colls^e The opening garae of the "47" season in basketball will be played at iviaxton, W.C. December 9. Pembroke is the first scheduled game for the "Red birds". This gives little time for practice with the Thanksgiving holidays right around the corner. Practice will begin the Lionday follow'ing vacation; v/ifch good luck a well drilled squad should take the court for the opening game. An3’'ono with experience is eligible to try out for the Varsity or Jr. Varsity everyone is looking forward to having a better team this year than over before.
