W of ford College T erriers Hand
Mountaineers Grid Loss, 23-14
By W. H. KOON
The Terrier* of Wofford College
handed the MounUlneen of Ap
palachian State Teachen College
a 23-14 defeat Saturday night in
Spartanburg, S. C. The loaa, term
ed by forecaateri an upset, was
the second loss of the season for
the Mountaineers.
Wofford received the ball on the
kfck-ygf and started a 63-yard drive
that was to culminate in a touch
down. Neeley contributed a 10-yard
run and fullback Bob Roma pushed
the score across from the 26. Art
incompleted pass was the Wofford
attempt for the point after touch
down.
App halback Bill Bradley drop
ped a fumble on the Wofford 30
on the return kick that was re
covered by Wofford. Bill Neeley
went over from the one yard line
and the score stood at 13-0 before
Appalachian had run a play.
The line of Wofford proved
themselves time and again, once
as they caused Sherril Norviile to
fumble on the Wofford 38. Ap
palachian's rugged line held the
Terriers from a touchdown, but
not from a 24 yard field goal that
put the Wofford squad ahead 16-0
with three quarters left to play.
It wa* during tlut first Quarter
that the Terrieri netted a 139
yardi ruahing, almost twice as
much aa other teams have aver
aged against the Mountaineers in
each game.
After the first half, Appalachian
settled down and began to play
a game that resembled football.
However, U was too late, and the
margin of scoring was too large.
Appalachian got in the scoring
column late in the third quarter
that started on a 26 yard punt re
turn by halfback Don Gardiner.
The biggest gain in the 55 yard
drive was an 18 yard run by quart
erback Tommy Wilson. This was
the first game in three that Wli
scn had run into the plus yard
age. Gardiner went over from the
one for the touchdown, and sopho
more sub Mike Chandler converted
for a successful extra point.
Wofford scored again with 16
aeconds remaining in the half to
> 'put the score at 23-7.
Appalachian made their final
score from the second half kickoff.
The drive showed a new play to
App fana aa halfback Don Gardiner
passed to end Oval Jaynes. Tho
fifty yard drive ended when Bill
I Mayhew, fullback replacing the
newly injured Glenwood Wilson,
slashed across from the twenty for
the TD. Chandler again added the
extra point.
Time after time Appalachian
seemed to be knocking on Wof
ford's scoring territory, tyt they
were unable to kindle the spark
needed to score the big touchdown.

BoonegDevils Down Maiden -Devils
In Winning Conference fBanner
By BILL FARTHING
The Blue Devils opened up their
bag of tricks once again and this
ripped the Blue Devil* of Maiden
High School, 44-7 in the all-im
portant District 7 AA conference
playoff* on the neutral field af
Hudson High School, Saturday,
November 12. H
Appalachian now (porta a re
cord of nine win* again at no 1 oas
es for the season, leaving Maiden
with a 9-2 record for the season,
including the playoff game.
The powerful mountain eleven
were just too much for the flat
lander* pushing them all over the
Hudaon field, and holding them to
a minus yardage.
King Triplett opened up the
scoring for the Blue Devils of Ap
palachian. Taking a hand off from
quarterback Taylor, he ran 13
yards for the first touchdown. Ro
bert Matheeoa charged across for
the conversion, making the score
7-0.
Later in the first quarter, Mathe
son plunged acrosa from the 4
yard line to keep adding to the
Devils scoring column. The extra
point run failed and the first
quarter score waa 134.
After the second quarter opened
up, the Boone boys got at it again.
Very alertly. Font King, App end,
recovered a Maiden fumble in the
end zone for more App glory. The
conversion try failed.
Excitement rose again for the
Appalachian players and fans
when Triplett carried a Maiden
put return 38 yards for another
Appalachian touchdown. Triplett
was brilliant on the punt return.
Once again the extra-point try
failed so the first half score read
Appalachian 29, Maiden 0.
The third quarter got under way
with much the same picture of
the first half. Brilliantly, King
Triplett carried the ball 78 yards
for another Appalachian score.
The conversion attempt failed
once again.
Later in the third quarter, fleet
halfback Doug Carson charged
across from the 9 yard line keep
ing the Boone scoring column hot
David Dougherty plunged across
for the conversion. Only two out
of seven conversion attempts prov
ed good for the Appa.
The fourth quarter proved to be
very exciting also. With the Ap
palachian second string in, Andy
S tailings took a pass from Tommy
Taylor to bolt over for the touch
down. This was a 39 yard paas
run play. The extra point failed
to go over.
Maiden'* score came in the
fourth quarter when quarterback
Charles Fish found Harold Fish

The Cove Creek High School
basketball team* got the season
underway last week with two vic
tories over Plaey Creek. The Raid

scor* of 72 to 37. The Haiders
followed with i?to? overtime
win in the second game.
The remainder of the schedule
is as follows:

29, Bethel at Cove Creek.
Dec. 2? Riverview at Rlverview;

Boone.
in the open and connected, him
with a 99 yard pass for a touch
down. Jim Killian ran the extra
point for the Maiden Devils.
Appalachian picked up 197 yards
passing proving that Maiden's
pass defense was not up to par
for the game. Maiden was held to
a minus 3 yards passing.
The entire Appalachian team
worked together brilliantly for the
win therefore making it hard to
pick out any real outstanding
player, because the whole team
was outstanding. D. H. Johnson
and Jack Thomas led a mighty
powerful defense for the Apps
but everyone else on the line
played fine defense and very good
offense. The second team as well
as the first team played excellent
foot bail, iving Triplet* ran his
touchdown total to 18 for the sea
son.
