Boone, North Carolina WATAUGA DEMOCR AT?EVE Mountaineers to Meet Lenoir-Rhyne In Opener "Hie Appalachian Slate football club?whether it be called Mountaineers or Rippers?is bearing down , this week in preparation for the sea son's inaugural Friday night against j Lenoir-Rhyne in Hickory. Feeling runs high on the squad, with the players being just about the only ones who will concede Appalachian ; State a possible chance against their ; more experienced rivals. But if fight means anything, then ; the State eleven is an even bet j against the Hickory boys. They are j in rare shape, and should be able to ? keep that first eleven in the game all sixth minutes. The lack of reserve material is State's greatest weakness just at the present. The New Deal in athletics at the local school is meeting with praises j on Mfjcs, and should the Mountaineers win. then the local coaching staff will be looked upon as miracie men. They have already done a wonderful ioh in rounflitwy fho Krvtr* .. - ? i shape, and their work has only be gun. j Coach Brewer will not issue a pre- j 'game prediction, but is of the ideaj that an early attack is the best 'chance Appalachian ha^ of winning. I I Coach Stewart believes that Appa-j I lachian may overcome their lack of ! experience by fight, and that should1 this be the case. State will open their I season in the victory column, j It is thought that the starting lineup for the Cenoir-Rhyne game will, I have Rudiscll and Matthews or Holt j at the ends, Wilson and Hobbs at | tackles, Farthing and Smith or Col-1 litis at Guards, and cither Frank 1 Moore or Ilerby Adams at center.1 Captain Trippany and Wally OHeilj will be at the halfbacks, with Fnv I Martin, young Mississippi junior col- J lege man, doing the signal calling. j Either Webb Ward, Bob Agle, or Rovie Angell will complete the start ing backfieldFall Junior Meeting At Pineola In October! j I The Fa!!

Wagoner's (known as Uncle Dick and Aunt Sarah) while ' they were away at Sunday School and erected a long table. The good ladies for miles around loaded this table with the finest food to be had. prepared by the best cooks in the land (and if you were ever at a public dinner on Stony Fork you know what I mean.) When Uncle Dick and Aunt Sarah arrived they were surprised. But after some serious calculations and reference to the family Bible and other periodicals, it was proved to the satisfaction of all concerned that it sure enough was Aunt Sarah's birthday, and she passed the 67th milestone in this journey of life.
