111. OCTOBER 22, 1936 W' Appalachian Actualities ) Be By Gene Wike The Appalachian victory bell rang 7. S for two reasons last Saturday, Octo- t ber 16, the first of which was to ring out the Mountaineers' victory ^ver j Western Carolina State Teachers ( College, the score being 20-2. at d the Beat: second reason was because Coach it. W. Watkins of the Appalachian staff , was married to Miss Martha De-: laney, student here and former citizen of Charlotte. The football victory puts the Appalachian team in the nation's lead with a total of lsil prints for four {fames, and the marriage places Coach Watkins on equal basis with Coach Stewart, who married just recently. Reports from the Associated press sports writers tend to show t.hrt. the highest scoring team in the nation is Dartmouth's Indians with 145 points for the season, but this statement cannot be verified since Appalachian haw scored 1.91 points, thus putting the Mountaineers in the lead by 43 points. The sports writers credits the highest scoring man of the nation with 40 points, but Len Wilson, Boone citir.cn, has shattered this competitive point record by crashing acros tnc goal line for his 63rd point this season. He has scored 23 points more than any other man in the nation. Appalachian is one of the ten undefeated teams ill the East. At pre3filYs llif M.iuntoinoo-a n nH PotnmVm are tied tor first place in the North ] State Conference. The deciding bat- i tie will occur November 7, at which j time Appalachian will play the. Ca- 1 tawlia Indians at Salisbury. The game will decide the conference ] championship. I Next Saturday the mountaineers , will face their toughest opponents for the season when they meet the ; South Georgia Teachers. These . Georgians have proved their ability , this year by defeating Erskine 26-0. i The Erskine team beat Lcnolr-Rhyne . 12-0. and Appalachian, after a tough j battle was victorious over Lenoir- j Ithync, 11-0. Thus it is evident that i the Georgians are better than the ! Mountaineers by 24 points, but only ; the game next Saturday will decide. \ Along with tlic sports of the col- i lege, Appalachian is active in other ' fields. Last. Monday evening a pri- { vatc- piano recitai was presented at i the college by the,students of Mrs < A. M. Norton of Boone l Mr. Waters from Lexington, is at ; the cnlleve this week lekiiVo- nietnres , for next year's yearbook, the Rhododendron.
