Bears, Eagles Play Thursday ASH—Waccamaws .Eagle foot ballers will play host to their Brunswick County rival in the Border Belt Conference—Bolivia’s Bears—here, Thursday at 4 p. m. Coach Tommy Shutt said the game had been moved up a day, from the original Friday date, so that some of the Eagle players could accompany other Wacca maw High School students to the State Fair in Raleigh on Friday. Shutt said he expected only one change in the probable starting lineup he has been using. Mackie FormyDuval, a regular starting guard, has been shifted to full back in place of Colin Kelly, who has had some scholastic difficulty. Earl Smith, a 175-pound fresh man. has replaced FormyDuval in the forward wall. Waccan .aw will not only be trying to stay ahead of Bolivia in BBC standings, but will also be trying to avenge a 24-19 non-conference win the Bears racked up over them, at Bolivia, just prior to the opening of the conference slate. Bolivia won that game in the fin al half-minute. The Eagles are 7th in the 10 team loop with a 2-4 mark; Bo livia is 8th with 1-5. Waccamaw A A W L Pet.

Shallotte Ties Massey Hillers MASSEY HILL—Tough luck continued to haunt Coach Gene Winfree’s Shallotte Pirates here, Friday night, as they twice led, but had to settle with Massey Hill’s Pirates for a 12-12 gridiron tie. The Brunswick County eleven led by 6-0 and 12-6 during the clash, but each time Coach Tom my Lewis’ Hillers came through with thrilling plays to knot the count. MH’s Dicky Sports intercepted a Shallotte pass at his own 20 and raced 80 yards to paydirt in the final three minutes to give the locals a 12-12 tie after Shal lotte had gone ahead, 12-6, on a 28-yard pass from Quarterback Bobby Hubbard to Fullback How ard Benton.

Warriors Beat Bolivia, 33-13 CLARKTON—Coach Harold In- ; gram's Clarkton Warriors con- ■ Untied to show power-plus and headed in the direction of their first Border Belt Conference grid title here, Friday night, as they pummeled Bolivia’s Bears, 33-13. It was Homecoming at Clark ton High and the lop-sided Brave triumph, plus the crowning of pretty Aubrey Lewis as Home coming Queen at the halftime show, highlighted the big day for Warriors and old grads. The win was Clarkton’? 6th straight with out loss in BBC play. Quarterback W. C. Daniels, al ways a pace-setter in the Ingram team’s game, did it again against Bolivia. He scored twice, passed I for another TD, and ran across two PATs. A blocked punt and recovery in the Bear end-zone by Jerry Hall brought Clarkton’s first TD early in the game. Daniels swept end for the PAT, his 16th of the season. A poor punt by Bolivia’s David Cook went out of bounds shortly afterward at the BHS 28 and Daniels scored from 6 yards out after Johnny Hall had gained to the 14, Dick Miller had gone to the 5 and Hall had been stop ped at the 6. Hall added the PAT on a run. Daniels ran 11 yards for an other tally and Clarkton led, 20-0 at the quarter.

Forester Rhyne Moves Up, Killian New Director District Forester T. S. (Tom) tfthyne, who served Columbus and adjoining counties for over 10 years helping to protect and propagate trees, has been trans ferred to the Raleigh office of the N. C. Forest Service as a regional forester. Rhyne’s successor at the Forest (Service office on the Chadboum road is Leonard A. Killian who was formerly stationed at Lex ington where he was engaged in Watershed activities. He is a native of Norlina and a grad uate of N. C. State college. There are two other additions to the office who came here just recently for duty with the Ser vice. One is Rodney M. McElwee, Assistant District Forester, who was stationed previously at Fay etteville. McElwee was bom and reared at Elkins, W. Va. and is a graduate of West Virginia University. Secretary of the Army Stahr was president of McElwee’s alma mater prior to being select ed for the top Army post. The other is J. Selby Hawk, a service forester, native of Georgia and graduate of the University of Georgia. Hawk was formerly sta tioned at Lincolnton. Firewise, this is the beginning of the busiest season of the year for Forest Service people. Last year the district had over 800 fires and some 200 of them oc curred duimg the fall months. The late winter months and early spring, however, present the most hazards, but they do occur throughout the year and all be cause of the carelessness of peo ple. The greatest single source? Brush burning. District Forester Killian says 99 percent of forest fires are started by humans with lightning accounting for not over one per cent. Right now the Service is get ting ready to launch the annual educational program among schools of the district. One or more visits will be made during the session to every school in the district making talks, shov/ing movies and slides, and distribut ing literature on the care and preservation of trees. In fact, the service tries to appear before any group anywhere in the interest of educating people on the im portance to the economy of trees. As an example of the dollar value to growers, just a few years back timber on the stump was going at four to five dol lars per thousand. Today it is in the $20-530 bracket, and the demand continues good. The local district force in 4-H Club News By JAMES E.
