P©RT I* A <■ E Edited By John I. Anderson ■+ Rambling With The Sports Editor -- " -- —---A DISAPPOINTED . . . Bob Kimzey, Jr., writes from Carolina that he’s terribly disappointed with the Tar Heels this year. We know ex actly how Ole Buddy feels: We’re in the same boat. Bob goes on to give us a good account of a Brevard boy on the freshman team. He says that Charles Weiss, former Brevard high school star lineman, played a bang up game against the Duke freshmen on Thanksgiving day. In fact, he said, Weiss has been in most all of the freshman games this fall, and shows excellent promise of developing into a real college player. Don’t be surprised if you see his name in Carolina’s line-up next fall. BIG GAME . . . Many Brevard football fans traveled across the Pisgah last Thursday to watch the big Thanksgiving game between Waynesville and Canton. And the favored Mountaineer team came through in the final analysis. At least five Brevard cars didn’t make it across the top of the mountain at Wagon Road Gap. Instead, they stopped up there “on top of the world” and listened to the game on the radio. The Waynesville station isn’t strong enough to send the signal down into the valley on this side, but the reception up there was good. Among those in the various cars were Dan Merrill, Ralph Dnckworth, John B. Kilpatrick, Jack Smathers and others. GOOD HUNTING . . . Deer and bear hunting in Transylvania this year is good, good that is, for everybody else but us. Next week we plan to carry a layout with several pics of lucky local hunters and their irills. Baseball stars, Gil Coan and “Hoss” Stamey shot nice bucks dur ing the past week, and Bill Erwin has the record to date on the larg est deer killed. His weighed 248 pounds, believe it or not. Pete Bikas got his buck on opening day, as did four Rosman fellows — Earl O’Shields, Ed Owen, Norris Berkshire and P. E. Stroup. THE WINNERS . . . Robert Sorrells was top man in our foot ball contest last week end. He picked eight winners out of the 11 games listed, and his score of the Duke-Carolina game was 21-7. In second place was Jewell Henderson, of Pickens, S. C., who had eight 'winners and a score prediction of 14-7. She receives two tickets to the Clemson or Co-Ed with the compliments of Managers Carter and Shiflet, while Sorrells gets three. The following get honorable men tion for having seven winners: Leon McCall, Mrs. Leon McCall, Harold and Carroll Holden, Bonnee Henderson and Eugene Knig, Jr. SEE YOU, NEW YEAR’S . . . Our football contests are being tem porarily suspended since there are no more big games to speak of until New Year’s. So we’ll be seeing you come the last week end in the month when we will offer tickets galore for picking the winners of the bowl games.
