PAGE SIX Erwin Squad Has 22 Players This Season Football season at Erwin has l opened. Twenty-two boys donned j their shoulder pads, helmets, shoes, ' and uniforms and started the hard tedious task of preparing for the season. Hardly a week went by before two of the boys had to drop out. P. H. Penning suffered a broken shoulder as a result of Friday’s practice, and Tommy Davis now nurses a badly skinned knee. Another cas ualty of Friday’s practice was Jer- [ ry Morgan. Jerry broke his nose : but with the aid of a nose guard he ! is still in there working. Coach Johnny Pecora is working j the remaining boys hard teaching ! them to pass, block, tackle, punt, j kick and scrimmage. By Friday night the Redskins should be in pretty good shape for the first game of the season. This year the team will have to j work hard to pull out of the cellar. All are hoping to reach a far bet- j ter goal than last year, and as! things look now the hopes will be fulfilled. LEDER BROS. !n Dunn Has FLORSHEIM SHOES Automotive Shop And Machine Service.

State Wolfpack Battling For Team Positions RALEIGH. The battle for ; starting positions on botli offensive and defensive units is raging heat edly in every practice session of Coach Horace Hendrickson's N. C. State Wolfpack and the keen com : petition is rounding the State team | into a more potent striking unit. At the tackle positions a pair of I lettermen, Ray Barkouskie and J. ; C. Britt, are getting a lot of com petition from Sophomores Ken Urgovitch and Glenn Nixon for ; the top offensive jobs. On defense, Jim Hillman, a veteran letterman and Freshman C. M. Price, appear to be the leaders, but Dewey Stall ings, John Szuchan and Tony Leone, all freshmen, are still in . the contest. At the guaard slots only John ] Bagonis, outstanding sophomore, ! appears set at the right guard po sition. Left guard is wide open with Ed Magaj sidelined with a broken j shoulder. Three men, Sophomores James Frazier and Charlie Davis, ! both of Goldsboro, N. C„ and ' Freshman J. W. Frankes of Ports mouth, Va„ are in the battle. De fensively at guard the key men ' are Bill Painter and Bob Perry | both freshmen, and Bob Paroli, a sophomcre letterman, who will see i defensive duty at both guard and I center. In the center of the State line three freshmen and one junior are the top contenders. Fred Batt aglia, a junior from Niagara Falls, N. Y„ is top offensive man along with Dick Tonn, 230-pound fresh man of Cleveland, Ohio. Defensi vely Bob Paroli and Harvey Yeates will both back up the Wolfpack line. At the end positions the keenest fight is for defensive jobs with Steve Kosilla. rangy senior f/om Tarrytown, N. Y„ and Harry Lodge, a sophomore letterman Biauwnex. Pa., apparently the leading offensive men. Others on defense include Don Davidson, freshman from Pontiac, Mich, and ex-Camp LeJeune Marine football star, Bernie Allman, senior letter man, and Paul Smith and John Thompson, both holdover reserves from last season.

MORRISON 1 Author of “A New Way to Better Oolf," Teacher of Champions “THE BEST-LAID plans of mice and men—” is uppermost in our mind when thinking over the upset suffered by Ben Hogan re cently at Dallas. It can readily be called an upset without taking away a thing from the wonderful performance of the winner, Julius Boros. As I made the accompanying and other snapshots during his private practice session at the Brookhollow course Ben described the practice he had been through 1 for the 1952 National Open. To put himself in the best pos sible mental and physical condi tion his practice had been well planned and executed. Most of the time every day for four weeks I : previous had been devoted to hit j ting shots with every club in the ; bag, starting with the shorter lofted shots and working up j gradually to the longer irons and wood clubs. j He went out on the course just I enough to keep his concentration I on competitive attitude and exe- j cution up to par. - "■ “I have found, in playing too I often or in friendly games, that I I get punchy and sometimes go I several holes without proper con- I centration on what I’m doing,” 9 Ben said. "I like to concentrate and as | competition progresses and gets tougher I find my concentration is much keener." < AFTER watching his smooth ness with all cluhs, including the putter, and weighing his mental attitude I concluded that his preparation for win was ample to afford him another brilliant vic tory. His first two rounds of 69 each made most critics believe that all would be downhill for him on the final day. Supposedly something on the physical side, such as humid heat, the 36-hole day or a Sillyettes Tart mm m ■ ■ .-j! 4? © 11 i" ■— ■ 11 I “And Remember, Chilian, Always Borrow from Motor Credit Co., They Never Give You Any Lip!” ( THE DAILY RECORD.

Simpson, who keeps trim by springing on his mail route, yester day ran the 34 miles from here to Durham, N. iC’„ in six hours and 35 minutes, clipping 10 minutes from his 1951 time. In 1928, Simpson ran 3.420 miles from coast to coast in 84 days. In 1929 he repeated the stunt in an unsuccessful attempt to break the record of 77 days. 4 Before the 1952 National Open at Dallas Ben Hogan practiced care* fully for four weeks, making every preparation to win only to be dis* tracted on the last day of play. ! number of three-putt greens, put him off the pace. I believe his concentration was broken, that he was distracted, put off his usual keen attention to all angles involved in winning l the National Open and biggest; prize on the American golfer's schedule. i if I leam what distracted him I’ll pass it on.
