EDENTON DEFEATS SMITHFIELD 38 TO 0 IN SEMI-FINAL TILT Aces Completely Outclass Visitors In Very Clean Game On Hicks Field Friday Afternoon The Edenton High School football team on Friday afternoon defeated the Smithfield eleven on the local field in the semi-finals for the eastern championship by the score of 38 to 0. The score was somewhat of a sur prise to both Edenton players and fans, as Smitheld was reported to have an exceptionally strong team this year and a hard-fought game was anticipated. The attendance was not as lvge as the Gamer-Edenton game last year, which was due no doubt to the unfavorable weather. Before the game had progressed very far, it was evident that the Edenton bc/,'s were stronger and were more experienced in the game than their opponents, though Smithfield had a group of clean-cut, sportsman like boys who played a hard and clean game against their heavier and more seasoned opponents. At no time during the game was the Edenton goal threatened, the visitors being able to chalk up only three first downs, two of these being by the air route. Edenton had little trouble in gaining ground, being able to regis ter 15 first downs which netted six touchdowns. The Edenton team took on the form of last year’s champions with every member of the squad playing his po sition in excellent manner. The line held well against the opposing ball carriers and opened holes for their teammates to advance to the goal. Melvin Layton, however, played just about the best game of his career, displaying wonderful broken-field running and powerful driving ability. Paul and Worth Spencer likewise con tributed their share in yardage gain ed and each displayed last year’s championship form. For Smithfield Gardner was the outstanding player with both Stancil and Matthews showing up well. Edenton kicked to start the game but Gardner was forced to punt after failure to gain, and after three suc cessive first downs Worth Spencer went through the line for a touch down. Edenton again kicked and Smithfield was forced to punt, after which a series of beautiful runs by Paul Spencer and Layton resulted in Paul making the second counter. Edenton kicked as the first quarter ended and on the first play in the second quarter Gardner made the first down for the visitors. On the next play Layton intercepted Gard ner’s pass and raced for a touchdown. The remainder of the quarter the ball see-sawed up and down the field with Edenton threatening to score as thr whistle blew. Edenton kicked to start the second half and after Smithfield was forced to punt, Paul Spencer again crossed the goal after brilliant runs by Worth Spencer and Melvin Layton. Johr Harrell went through the line for the extra point. Two more touchdowns were scored in the fourth quarter, both by Paul Spencer, one a beautiful pass from his brother and the other a sensa tional run near the close of the game.

Referee, Vaughan, State; umpire, Rogers, Springfield; head linesman, Liles; timekeeper, William Elliott r Urges Not To Pick Peanuts Too Soon N. K. Rowell, County Agent is very anxious that peanpt growers 'refrain from picking the .crop wMe too wet. He emphasizes the fact that if picked while wet there is a possi bility of mold which would be very deterimental to securing the price that should be received. He urges the growers to allow the peanuts to remain in the field until favorable time, saying there is less likelihood of damaging tne crop and by far a better chance to secure top prices, rather than about half price for inferior grades. Mr. Rowell "observed peanuts being picked this week while too wet and is hopeful that farmers will not be too anxious to house the crop until the conditions are more favorable.
