She does not always1 boast of the top score, but that Louisburg Team is right in the heat of the game and puts up a good battle for the sake of the game. There is cooperation, hard play, and clean sportsmanship in the work of that team. First, the school should be complimented on having secured as this year's coach, Mr. Frank Suttenfleld, who was for seven years connected with the High School of Eden ton. During bis period of training at Lynchburg College, Mr. Suttenfleld was at v:irious times captain of the three r.ajor athletic teams, football, basket ball, and baseball. Mr. Suttenfleld is proving a valuable edition to Louisburg College as a popular teacher and most suc cessful athletic coach. Burgess, the 165 lb. left half back from Old Trap, is Captain of the team. He specializes in speed and has proved one of the ; most continuous ground gainers of the season. Burgess' 70 yard run in Louisburg's battle with the Maroon and Qold Apprentice Crew broke the monotony of straight football putting Louis burg in position tt> score its third touchdown. He can be depended on to play spectacular football. Richards, the 6 ft. 2 ft in., 180 lb. right end from Raleigh, has shown through out the season very unusual ability in snagging passes. ~fhe Waddell to Richards pass has made many spectators sit up and take notice.

He comes to Louisburg from State College and shows the result of very careful training. MacLeod, 01 L,umoerion, 1 1 u lbs. of hard muscle, also possess es triple threat ability. Much to the loss of the team MacLeod has had a tough season, being unable to play part of the time because of physical injuries. Frailer, 150 lb. left end of Laurinburg, is one of the best defensive ends of any Junior ool lege in the State. The most powerful factor in line defense in games up to date and one of the individual stars in tbe game with Carolina Freshmen is Goodwin, 210 lb. center from Edenton. . With the assistance of Bullock 160 lb. guard of Fuquay Springs, and Edwards 195 lb. left tackle of Durham, Loulsburg forms a mean and stubborn line. Webb of Edenton,. a member of Georgia Tech Freshmen Team last year, 180 lb. left guard Is on ? this year's Loulsburg Team. Haw Icy 180 lb. right tackle of Oolds boro; and Weldon, 1(5 lb. right halt from Hagwood, S. C., give very creditable support. With Bufflap of Edehtbn and Johnson of Cary In the backfleld; Gholson of Oxford, Hoyle of Wakeland, Dale of Fuquay Sprlngj, at the ends; Tucker and Holden of Loulhburg, Bray and i Budd of Slier City and Sanford of Laurinburg strengthening the line, Loulsburg has a team that ' any Junior college may well be proud. . [.

M. May, which were con ducted by Rev. D. P. Harris, pas tor of Louisburg Baptist church. Mr. May was born January 26, 1867 and died October 26, 1933. He was the son of J. J. and Elliabeth Qlllam May. He spent Beveral years ot his life at Franklinton, where In 1907 he became a member of the Baptist church there. On August 3, 1909 he married Miss Bessie Bai ley daughter of J. W. Bailey ot Middlesex. To this union were born four children ? John H. May; Marvin M. May; Ml<? Eu genia E. May; and Miss Leona May, all of whom survive. Three brothers ? J. O. May, Cedar Rock; R. H. May, Rocky Mount; and T. H. May. Pitts burgh, Penn.; and two sisters ? Mrs. Ida R. Valentine, Cedar Rock; and Mrs. Jeneva Collins, Cedar Rock, also survive him. In speaking of the deceased Rev. Harris said, "It was not my good fortune to know Mr. May very Intimately, but the great crowd that gathered at his fun eral bore Its splendid testimony to his great worth as a citizen, and to the purity of his Christian character. He repeatedly assured his family that he was prepared to meet his Qod. During his last day or two on earth he was heard answering a voice that he said was calling him. He de clared he knew the voice, and asked his wife If she too could not hear this voice calling him. After a while he told them It was the voice of his mother, and that he had known who It was calling him. From all I can learn, Mr. May was a most worthy man, lived a clean Christian life, and was ready to pass Into the great be yond whenever It might be the good will ot our Father to call him hence. Our sincere sympa thies go out to his wife, and ions and daughters, and sisters, and brothers. They must meet him In heaven presently." Be an F. R. A. and help Build Franklin County.
