PAGE TWO Rambling W»TH THE amfiler By “LITTLE BUFF’ Heavy Thought: „ . .. After a somewhat extended vacation the Rambler should turn his “power of thought” to the topic of football, but instead he has a far more important matter occupying his brain. After debating and discussing the subject with those concerned, it was decided that Mr. Floyd Edwin Buffiap, Jr., be allowed to grow a few months more and then take his pick of the following three “vocations”: RAMBLING Mixing a “Big Five” Concoction Last year the Rambler made pre dictions as to how the “Big Five football race would stand at the end of the 1935 season, and missed only on the first two positions, which even Hoyle will tell you, was no fault of the predicter. This year, however, the situation looks much more com plicated and even though some sports writers of the State have already made their selections in the race, they have done so merely by guess and hoped luck was with them- To the Rambler, the "Big Three” are a great deal closer in compara tive strength this season than last and he will be very much surprised if these three teams run up the big scores they did last season in their games. Most writers picked Duke to again take top honors in the State, but, due to sentiment, the toss of the coin or some unknown reason, I again hang onto the University of North Carolina. True, the odds are stacked against them at present, and they lost one of the best coaches in the country, but it is my firm belief that the heavy schedule this season will help rather than hinder the Tar Heel squad and put them even higher in the national spotlight than they were in ’35. Carolina lost only two men who will be sorely missed, Babe Daniel, center, and Herman “Hump” Snyder, the blocking back. Coach Wolf will have some trouble in re placing these two stars, but other wise he should have little difficulty. Duke rates second spot merely be cause Wallace Wade is too smart as a coach for Coach Hunk Anderson of N. C. State. Duke lost a goodly number of key men by graduation, but Ace Parker, Hackney, and Silver Smith will stand out in the Blue Devil running attack, and put the Duke team near the top. State, a team with the best ma terial in the south, rates a mere third, merely because of their coach. Most of the Wolfpack have spent two years working together, and taking into consideration that 27 of the men out for the squad are lettermen causes much doubt to arise. These boys might surprise everybody. Again Wake Forest and Davidson will be fighting it out for the last two places in the “Big Five” organi zation, with a slight lead being giv en to Wake Forest from this corner.

PERRY—PEARCE A marriage of much interest in this section took place on Saturday morning, August 29, at the Baptist parsonage at Center Hill, when Miss Lizzie Pearce became the bride of Kermit L. Perry. The ceremony was performed by their pastor, the Rev. ■ Kitchin, a real triple threat and passer par excellent, causes the Dea cons their slight advantage over the Wildcats. But football is becoming more of a gamble every year. The develop ment of various passing attacks has caused many of the underdogs to make the good teams look like high school squads- Then too, we never can tell when President Graham will shut down with his “plan to rid the Southern conference of athletics.” But the best we can do is wish for the best and hope against the worst. R AMBLING Still in a Mess!!! The baseball situation in the Na tional league seems to be in as big a muddle as ever with the end almost in sight. Os course, everybody do nates the Yankees the American league pennant, but they find them selves up a tree when they come to the National winner. The New York Giants, Chicago Cubs, and the Gas House Gang from St. Louis seem to be having quite a time taking turns at the top of this circuit, with no one seeming to hold the honored post for long at a time. The Rambler remembers how the Giants collapsed on the last lap last season and how the Cubs gained the punch to pull them through, and considering the fact that the Cardi nals should always be considered, the writer thinks that a flip of the coin is the best way to settle this war. On the other hand, if he was made to pick his choice, he would be forced to take those dependable Chicago Cubs. And So!!! RAMBLING The Jedge Again!!!

The bride was be comingly attired in a. costume of blue, with blue accessories, and her flowers were a corsage of roses and lilies of the valley. Mrs. Perry is the attractive young daughter of W. H. Pearce, of Rocky Hock. Mr. Perry is the son of Mr. and Mrs. J. R. T. Perry, also of Rocky Hock. Immediately after the ceremony Mr. and Mrs. Perry left for a short wedding trip. V. E. Boyce Closes Local Meat Market The meat market operated by V. E. Boyce for the past several months in the Sam Habit building next to W. I. Cozzens was closed on Saturday night. Mr. Boyce has gone to Golds boro, where he will operate an up-to date meat market in connection with his slaughter house there.
