fo, fiOLBSBOBQ ai^ f Quakes " by 20-6'Verdict f f Sasfi'O Scare Ma4e i» 1939 [ The Qtiafees took the Wilson Biue- { ?nrt-Gk)M Cyclone into camp by a 20- I S vordict ln Wilsoii Friday iafternoon, October 31, This fi-acas was one of oiu' annual eattles, and as usual was hal'd fougM. - 'Hie first 'b>£if was a very listless one, :ia Wllson’o favor all around. ’ Vick and his tto«e backfield aids made it todgh-going for the locals. 'Time and p.g^iin they Tvml4 tear off fairly good gains that looked as if they' would sctje at any tixne, but the; Quakes •Kould put on a little more pressure and preveirt; their scoring. The first Qi'dake score came in the oi>ening miniites of the second half ai’fer Mason had heaved a 37-yard pass to Giclclens, who planted the ball ou the 26-yard line. Lynch went around encl lor seven yards and Mason tool: it off tadkle for four more. Then Lynch lost five yards and Liles failed to connect Tdtli, a pa.ss from Mason. Mason tlito heaved another pass to ClitJdens for twelve yards, and this lad traveled the reiflfething two yards for a touchdown. A pass from Mason to Giddens netted the exti’a point. On the kick-oH Merritt kicked fifty yards, and Vick made one of the prettiest runs of the game in bringing it back si.xty yards. The Blue-and-Gold was fiyiitmg desperately, and after a ser ies of line plays and end runs they put the agate over for their only score, as the try for point was wide. Wilson kicked to Merritt for sixteen yards. Then followed a series of plays that took the opponents off their feet, and Lynch took the pigskin over the scor ing line from the 2-yard line. The e\ti'a point failed. Merritt then kicked off for forty- five yards to Leach, who started out run but after ten yards of traveling lie found that he did not have the bali. The feajl? Yes, he had it only a few seconds before. But where was it? Well, Ifae had fumbled it in a ^;ery peculiar manner and Giddens had recovered it on the 34-yard line. The first play found good ole “Monk” tot ing the bail off tackle for four yards; then another pass from Mason to Gid dens netted thirty yards and the third Quake score. Unnecessary roughness ■ on the part of the Wilson left tackle ‘ ' caused the extra point to be redeem ed. The end came in a very few min utes and the Quakes had done to the Cyclone just what theii' predecessors . of 1929 had done—beaten them 20-6. For Wilson the dminutive quarter back, Vick, Tv'as the outstanding player. It was due to his good field general ship that the score remained as it \\'2s. In the line Burton played a bang-up game as time and again this big tackle stopped some Quake attack. I.each looked best for the opponents on the flani:. Lynch and Mason were the big shots in the locals’ backfield and it was their ability to skirt the ends and tear holes in the line that put the locals in a position to score. Lynch was playing a Brand of ball that has not ieen witn€S£€d in local high school circles before this year. He had learned that the best way to carry a ban is not like a “stolen ’ter mellon,” and he was making the Wilson team ir.ore miserable each time he toted the ?f!.ate. Liles couldn’t get going in this contest, but his- delnsive play ^vas extremely good. In the line Merritt, Biarid, and Pate were the luminous powers; time after time they made the Wilsoir backs sick. Giddens at end played a great game and his pass snatching as well as defensive work ^vei’c both high pointers in the locals' play. i Summary: Substitutions; Quakes, Eai,wn for Giddens, Daughtery for ■ Bland, Worrell for Hobson.

Yeah, football is all gone and with it went one of the outstaiid- i?.->.g players of recent times in high sc^aool circles. This lad was none other than “good ole Monk” Mason. Monk closed his football career with a bang- up game with Raleigh Hi on Friday, November 14. We hope that Monk will have success in football wherever he goes next year. This lad has left bdiind him a re.cord 'that :will be hard to surpass in the future and that has never been equaled in the past. Henry Liles also closes his high snliool gi-id career. Captain “Crab- man” is another lad who has ^ad a very; successful course and his place will be a hard one to fill. Did you come out to see the All Star-Quake game? Well it sho’ was a humdinger. That kind of football is rarely seen around this man’s fair city. Well, with basketball just around the covaer we have ‘something else to look forward to. The Quakes are going to have a real good team this season. Tliere will be Liles, Hooks, Hawley, and Merritt back from last year’s squad v/iih a fairly good bunch of green ma terial to work into a first class team and subs. Dollar says Liles is high point collector again this year. Wanna bet? I speck I had better say something about the girls’ sextette aspirants. We have Mary Alice Dewey, McArn Best, 'Naxicy Bridgers, Louise Davis, Cathe rine Liles, Helen Ellinwood, Hilda Pear sall, and Margaret Underwood back fxom last year’s “Ladies” team. This v;iil be a big help to Miss Janie’s hopes for the coming season. I hope I haven’t left any of the hopefuls that were on last year’s team out ’cause MiaS Janie doesn’t like for me to write with partiality. So if I’ve been neg lectful let me know and I will correct it. ■ ‘ Mr. Bullock has had a good deal of exercise since the team gave him those loud pajamas—they were so Ipud that “Anne, Jr.,” was unable to sleep and he had to^alk the floor w'ith her ’till wee smalf%ours of the morning. Raleigh High Wins East Championship Quakes Held to Zero Scoi’e Friday, Noveniber 14, Raleigh High C''efeated the G. H. S. Earthquakes in a bitterly fought contest, assuring them- .H'lves of the Eastern Championship. Although the Quakes held the Capital city lads scoreless in the first half, they were overwhelmed in the second. The Quakes had the edge on Raleigh in the first half, making four fii’st dov.ns to Raleigh’s two, but nothing important happened. The exchanging of punts featured the play. At the beginning of the escond quarter Ka- nietches went in for Womble. This flashy little back demonstrated some real football during the remainder of i.iie game. At the beginning of the second half Ilfileigh came out with new pep and energy. It seemed that the Quakes wore unable to stop the continuous on slaught of their opponents. After an'^ • exchange of punts at the beginning 01 the third quarter, the boys from Raleigh took the ball down the field for the first touchdo\\m of the game. Kametches carried it over after a pass from Dunnaway. The extra point w'as obtained by a pass from Kametches to ' Paul. The next score did not come until the fourth quarter. Kametches and Ferrel led an attack that started in midfield and did not end imtil the ball was on the wrong side of the goal line. Kametches again took the “skin” over for the score. Ferrel made the extra point through the line. ' A few plays riter the kick off, Kametches inter cepted Mason’s pass, leading the way to the last totichdown.; A fifteen yard penalty against, the Quakes also con tributed to that last score. Womble carried the “pill” over for the six points after snatching a short pass from Kametches. This same comoina- tion netted the extra point. \ For the locals Liles and Mason\ re ceived the backfield honors, ^a^ile P.iand, Pate, and Hobson looked Mst in the line. For the Wake couiky lads Ferrel and Kametches were t^ luminaries of the backfield, while Bai\ loy and Cox were the best linesmen .\ EJIisberg was the outstanding man. Sadie Reid: I hear that Ralph was knocked oiit while playing on the eleven. Nancy Bri(^g^rs; No, w^hile the eleven were playing on him. Play WjWftsrts Ions Runs Featwe Game , The Goldsboro High Quakes took thg big end of a 7-6 sco're“ from the V/ilmingtdn Wildcats in Goldsboro, Friday afternoon, November 1, in one of the hardest fought games of the, season, ilie game was featured by plenty of actioa and long runs. These were maneuvered. by Mason, Lynch, and Liles for the locals and by the Robinson brothers for the Wildcats. The main thrill of the game came in tiie closing minutes of the game when E. Robinson intercepted a Qiiake pass cn his own goal liiie and dashed 100 yards down the sidelihe for the only. Wildcat score. The locals played a beautiful game of football. ,In the third quarter of the game they bucked up and held the visitors for downs when it looked as if the Wildcats were going to score fiom the locals’ four-yard line. The locals scored in the opening minutes of the game when at the end of a se ries of line plays and end runs Lynch took the ball over for the score. A pass from Mason to Giddens netted the extra point. Then the fun began. I'^rom the kickoff Wilmington started an attack that looked as if they in tended to pay back the Quakes’ visit to their goal, but’ the Quakes finally turned them b§‘ck and took the ball down the field out of danger. In the last quarter the Quakes were within scoring distance twice, but the Vvildcats held them for downs after they had smothered a woUld-be pass the first time. Then Robinson inter cepted the pass to make the last Quake try no good. The teams were well matched; it was a nip-and-tuck aftair frcm the start, and, as has been sug- i;csted before, the final whistle^ was the deciding point of the game. For Wilmington, the Robinson brothel® were the big stars in the backfield, while Fonvielle, Gilliard, and Beasley were the big stars in the line. These boys were the cause of plenty Ox v/orry for the Quakes; it was their playing that kept the Quakes from scoring again and made it possible for their own team to score. P’or the Quakes Lynch, Mason, Hocks, and Captain Liles were the best in the backfield, while Bland, Pate, and Giddens were the line stars. The line-up reads like this; Quakes Postion Wildcats Giddens .. left end Vv'orrell ... left guard Fqnveille Eland ',... left tackle . Gilliard Pate center Blackstork Hobson ... right guard Hawley .., right tackle right end Mason .... quarterback Liles (capt.) Henderson left halfback Hooks .... right halfback 'Fox lA'nch : fullback qiRLSBpilN BASKETBALL Four Report On Monday, Npve^bey 3,“ the. gii'ls' basketball team of G'. H.

Lucy Lelloy, the manager of the. tcf.m, and Mary Alice Dewey, the cap- tahi, are doing all they can to stini- ulcite and keep up the interest; and they need the hearty cooperation of tlie shaopl as well^, as that of the team. Although the varsity team has sev eral gb,mes in vieiv in the future, in ter-class games will precede any out- of-town games which are scheduled. SNAKE LIKES GIRL Apparently the interest in snakes has revived. Cecil Hobson recently brought a green snake about a foot and a half long to school. The .snake was found in the lockers after the Rocky Mount game. Ceqil brought his new pet home. After being exhibited to the girls here at school, the snake promptly forsook Cecil and nothingj mere has been seen of him. Vernon Glisson also had a snake v/hich he caught on the boys’ yard one recess. The snake; was a hog nose, adder and about a foot long. Vernon spid he was going to keep his snake and raise a lot of little snakes. Hicks & Hawley’s DRUa STORE Hotel Goldsboro Goldsboro, N. C.
