WILLIAMSON and MARSHALL
Last week’s defeat at the hands of the Burlington Bulldogs
brought an unsuccessful ending to what could be termed a
successful season for the Whirlies. A few weeks ago we pre
dicted the Whirlies would snap out of their losing ways when
they were riding on the crest of a five game losing streak.
They did with a win against the Maroons of Asheville. They
followed this with a win over the Reidsville Lions who were
previously unbeaten. They then made it three in a row by
knocking over Winston-Salem, who was also unbeaten before
they met the Whirlies. The Winds then met their third straight
undefeated foe, the Salisbury Yellow Jackets. Salisbury hand
ed the Whirlies their sixth setback of the season as the Whir
lies came up with perhaps their poorest showing of the sea
son. Then came the traditional game with High Point. Neither
team was on the winning side of the fence, but the rivalry was
still there. The Whirlies walked away with this one and their
third conference win. Then came the Bulldogs . . .
The outstanding factor of the Whirlie season this year has
been their defense. They allowed only 113 points in the eleven
games this season. That is an average of 10 per game. Only
two teams won over the Winds by more than two touchdowns,
Salisbury and Burlington. Raleigh, Charlotte, and Gastonia all
won by only two. The other two were by 6-0 at the hands of
Wilmington and Rocky Mount.
The offense average, only 4.9 pts. per game, clearly shows
why the Whirlies haven’t won more games this year.
Co-Captain Norman Canoy and Center Bill Walke have been
selected to play in the annual North Carolina-South Carolina
Shrine Bowl game played in Charlotte. Canoy has led the line
play for the Whirlies all year while Walke has played fine as
offensive center. Raymond Pennington of Bessemer is the
other Guilford County player invited.
Art Scott Paces
Win Over Bison
Halfback Arthur Scott raced 47
yards for a fourth quarter touch
down that paced the Senior High
Whirlies to a 12-6 victory over
their bitter rival, the High Point
Black Bison, in the annual game
played there November 7. A
thoroughly chilled crowd of 3,000
witnessed the Western Class AAA
conference contest, which was also
the battle for the Guilford County
championship.
In the fourth quarter after a
punt return to their own 12, the
Whirlies ground out a first down
on the 47, after Yow had gone 59
yards for an apparent touchdown,
but the officials ruled his forward
motion had stopped on the 48. A
penalty set the Whirlies up to the
Bison 47. Then Scott took a hand-
off and without a hand touching
him, scampered the distance for
12-0. A bad snap from center pre
vented the try for extra point.
High Point recovered a fumbled
punt on the Greensboro 25 late in
the last quarter to set up their lone
score. The Bison bucked for a first
on the 1, and two plays later Corn
ell Johnson, a freshman fullback,
bulled over from the 9. Fred
Marshall blocked the kick and the
final score was written, 12-6.
Greensboro picked up victory
number four for the season, includ
ing three conference wins. For the
Bison it was eighth loss of the
season; they have tied Burlington.

Greensboro Ends Season
As Bulldogs Win 19-0
The Burlington Bulldogs contin
ued their jinx over the V/hirlies by
defeating them 19-0 in the last
game of the season for both teams.
The Whirlies in the last six years
have been able to defeat the Bull
dogs only once, that in 1950.
For the Whirlies it was their sev
enth defeat to go with four wins.
This was an improvement over the
1951 record when the Whirlies
could win only three games. The
Bulldogs have also had a hard time
winning and with the win over
Greensboro they finished the sea
son with three wins, seven defeats,
and one tie.
The Whirlies wanted to finish
their season with a win to end
what would have been a successful
comeback. The Whirlies have four
teen boys that won’t be back next
year. Co-captains Eddie Yost and
Norman Canoy head this group,
followed by David Kersey, Ray
Lutz, Frank Cameron, Dallas Hol-
lerman, Fred Marshall, Bill Walke,
Lee Creede, Charlie Sneed, Jimmy
Davis, Arthur Scott, Dan Haley and
Jimmy Murphy.
During the first period neither
team could get started but at the
start of the second quarter the
Whirlies got going with Yost and

Yow doing the running. From th?
20 Yow went off the left side to
the 11 where Scott carried to the
9, but Greensboro was offside. Two
plays later Bill Hughes intercepted
a pass on his own 13.
Burlington was pushed back to
the 6 by a holding penalty and from
there Clayton ran 33 yards to the
39. The Bulldogs then raced against
the clock and scored with 25 seo
onds left in the half. Bob Roach
converted.
The Bulldogs took the second
half kick off on the 20 and in seven
plays had scored their second
touchdown. Mullis carried the ball
five times; scoring from the two.
The Whirlies drove back from
their own 30 to the Burlington 25.
Yow carried to the 17, and then
Yost lost 4 yards. Yow then fum
bled and Clayton ended the scoring
by running 78 yards for a touch
down.
