and asked where he could get some
red worms. That’s what happened
' to Nelson Jackson, Jr., Wednes
day when Allen Rogers of Spar
tanburg asked where he could get
some worms. Nelson referred him
to Tryon fish headquarters at Ar
ledge Hardware and Hose sent him
next door to George Carson at
Jackson’s, who digs worms for the
fishermen in that neighborhood. In

worms and was on his way fish

Football Season Open
The Tryon high football sea
son has been under way for over
a week with the team fast round
ing into shape. The turn out from
the local school was exceptionally
good with about eighteen candi
dates on hand. The squad will
be further increased by the addi
tion of eight or more huskies from
Saluda. The Tryon group has al
ready gotten down to hard work
with some light scrimmage in spite
of the hot weather. The majority
of the boys have been working dur
ing the summer and are ready to
play.
From the looks of the squad this
early a good first team seems to
be the prospects with the reserve
strength being weak. One of the
guard positions and a backfield post
are the most important places to
be filled. The end position which
was vacant seems to 'be well taken
care of by Harold Taylor if he
keeps up at his present speed. The
other positions are occupied by
some of the old men and reserves
but no one is assured of a berth
yet. The addition of the Saluda
school players will go a long ways
in giving the fans better games
and a better brand of football.
