BULLDOG BARKS
RICHARD DOBY
There goes a long end-over-end
kick. Who is doing the kicking?
Why it’s Richard Doby, a 6-foot,
172 pound lad, who has had much
experience at this game called
football.
Richard, who is playing his
second year on the varsity, is out
standing on defense as well as of
fense.
On defense, “Dick Dob”, as he is
called by his teammates, plays a
wonderful game at the end pos
ition. His bone-bruising tackles
are something to see.
Not only does he specialize in
throwing the opposing ball carri
ers for losses, but he also plays a
rugged guard position on offense.
He was changed to this position
after Bill Barnes and Arthur Bur
ris ^ were injured. Making the
change from end to guard was a
big step for Richard, but he has
been doing an excellent job.
Richard is not only interested
in football, but also likes to box.
After football season he plans to
box with the Y. M. C. A. boxing
team. He is also interested in
basketball and will probably play
with the basketballers of A. H. S.
When you see a man in the op
posing team’s backfield, in the
ring slugging it out with an op
ponent, or making beautiful shots
on the basketball floor, you will
know it is Richard Doby.
Compliments Of
J. G. PENNEY'S
HENRY FARMER
The Albemarle Bulldogs have
gone undefeated so far this sea
son, and a great deal of the credit
goes to tackle Henry Farmer.
“Country”, as he is better known,
has more than proven himself a
very valuable linesman to the
Bulldogs this season. Woe unto
the opponents who try to run a
play over his tackle position.
“Country” probably played one
of his best games against Gas
tonia several weeks ago, although
he can be counted on for a bang-
up performance every time he go
es into the ball game.
Henry stands six feet and
weighs 180 pounds. When you see
an opponent thrown for a loss
and jersey number 38 getting up,
you can rest assured that it was
Henry who made the tackle. This
is Henry’s second year of football,
but to see him play you would
tftink he has been playing all his
life. Henry’s big smile and never-
say-die spirit on the gridiron
make him a favorite with all.
Henry doesn’t keep his interest
confined to football, however; he
is Interested in all kinds of sports.
Henry doesn’t know where he will
go to college when he graduates,
but where ever he goes, you will
be sure t(f hear more from him.

Bulldogs Defeat
Monroe Eleven
I
The Albemarle Bulldogs crush
ed the Monore eleven by a score
of 27-0 in the fifth game of their
unbeaten, twice tied season.
Led by Gene Snuggs and co
captain Ed Patterson, the Bull
dogs showed they still had
plenty of attack after two prev
ious scoreless tie games.
Fine line play led by Sid
Helms and Ken Whitley, gave the
Bulldogs one TD, and an Albe
marle recovery of a Monroe
fumble set up another.
Gene Snuggs scampered twelve
yards for the second TD after the
fumble.
With time running out in the
first half, Bruce Lowder shot a
pass to End “Whit” Whitley for
the third score.
Ed Patterson made the final
TD in the early minutes of the
fourth quarter. “Bow Wow” Bow
ers’ try for his fourth consecu
tive extra point was no good and
the ball game ended 27-0.
The “new find” of the night
was Gene Snuggs, who was fill
ing in for the injured Kenny
Brown. It was really Gene’s
first chance, and he made the
most of it with several impres
sive runs.
Juniors Defeat
Wadesboro, 28-0
The Albemarle Bullpups turned
back the Wadesboro Jayvees 28-0
October 12 at Wadesboro. With

The third score of the game
came in the third quarter with
Charlie “Booge” Bowers running
ten yards around end. “Sonny”

Don Stogner.
Line Outscores
Backfield In Win;
Doby Leads Teams.
The Albemarle Bulldogs came
through Friday night with two
touchdowns in the last quarter
to defeat the Statesville eleven
13-0.
After the Bulldogs jiad battled
