PAGE TWO Three Bulldogs Boomed For Ail-State Honors Three members of Henderson high school football eleven are being boom ed for All-State eleven honors. They are Billy Peace and Captain Tommy Jenkins, backs, and Robert Rideout, center. Peace, leading scorer and ground gainer for the Bulldogs, is a triple threat fullback, and has gained mote ground this season than the remaind er of the backfield. He is a hard run ner, elusive, and employs the straight arm with a decided advantage. He kicks and passes well, and is equally at home skirting the ends or ramming the line. He is one of the best backs in Henderson high school football his tory. Jenkins, playing his first and last year with the Bulldogs, has been a real find at quarterback. He passes and kicks also, and can be counted on for gains he carries the ball. Jenkins started at center, but gave way to the backfield when Coach Miller uncovered Rideout. Rideout has been nominated by the mentor for the mythical honors, while the other two have been mentioned by the press for the honors. Rideout has been the definsive star for the Bull dogs during the season. Ho is in prac tically every play, and is a deadly tackier. On the offense, he turns in a beautiful game with perfect passes from his post. In the Chapel Hill game here Friday, Rideout broke through on occasions to block Chapel Hill kicks, one of them behind the goal line. The ball bounded out into the playing field, being downed on the one yard line as the half ended. Drill for Lavvrenceville The Bulldogs are drilling for Law renceville, Va., there Friday. During Yale Scoring a Safety Hutchinson, of Dartmouth (arrow), is shown being tackled behind hia own goal line by J. Miller, of Yale, in the second quarter of the Yale- Dartmouth game in the New Haven Bowl. The play gave Eli a two point lead. Dartmouth scored nine points in the last quarter to earn a 9-9 tie, ■ (Central Press i / MIN’S FINE SHOES c We have this model in your exact size ••. Black or Brown. All Sizes—Widths AA’s to EEE .

Bobby Green, former Wake Forest college linesman, has been tu toring the boys, giving Coach Miller more time with the backs. The line has developed into a hard charging forward wall that will compare with any line in schools of similar size in this section. Very seldom do backs get a gain through the forward wall. Miller intends to continue to polish his new huddle system, which he in troduced to the Bulldogs the first time this season. It is of the delayed va riety, with the quarterback not in the huddle. The local lads work the sys tem to perfection. ’CATS PLAY HEELS ON HOMECOMING DAY Davidson, Nov. 2—Back on the war path, the Davidson yVildcats, with their first Southern Conference win of the season safely tucked away, be gan preparations for what they hope will be the season's upset, a Davidson victory over the University of North Carolina before a capacity crowd at Richa.d-c:. :1 Id Saturday afternoon. The game, the 34th in the Davidson- North Carolina series, will be the feature of the Davidson homecoming. The annual alumni luncheon will be held at 12:30 o’clock. As an extra fea ture for the occasion, the Davidson fraternities will be adequately deco rated. 1633—Beginnings of Harvard—The Massachusetts Bay Colony’s General Court “agreed to give 400 pounds; to wards a schoale or colledge.” HENDERSON, (N. C.) DAILY DISPATCH, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 2, 1937 CITADEL NEXT ON WOLFPACK’S ME South Carolina Team Comes To Raleigh For Game Saturday Afternoon College Station, Raleigh, Nov. 2 Topping North Carolina’s grid slate this week is the State-Citadel game in State’s Riddick Stadium Saturday afternoon. The kick-off has been set for 2:30 and the second largest crowd to see a game in the stadium this fall is looked for. i The setting is right for a colorful game. Both clubs are much stronger than last year. Citadel lost a heart breaker to South Carolina on last Sat urday while State was defeating a fav ored Boston College eleven. I The Citadel Bulldogs will come here Saturday hitting perfectly on all II cylinders as a result of that loss and State’s Wolves, anxious to contin ue their winning ways, hope to be at their best. Freakish breaks of the game enabled South Carolina to win over Citadel as the Bulldogs complete ly outrushed the Gamecocks. Citadel has the best team it has had in 17 years. It is noted especial ly for its fine forwards who, accord ing to Coach Glenn Thistlethwaite o‘ Richmond University, are more pow erful on offense than the Duke of Du quesne University. Richmond hats played both teams. It lost to Citadel, 26-0, and to Dequesne, 24.0. TSiaie SIO,OOO for Private Concern in Macon County Sur prises * Raleigh T>:iilv Dtan.'iti'b I»» The Ssr ’.V-<ltcr 11..te1. Raleigh. Nov. 2. Announcement that the federal Rural Electrification Administration has approved a $lO,- 000 loan for a small project in Macon county has occasioned more than a little surprise here. Two factors contributed to the feel ing of amazement, first the smallness of the approved loan and second the fact that it was made to a private in dividual, owner of a small utility con cern. Previous announcements by the Federal REA have been uniformly to the effect that governmental agencies and cooperatives were preferred cus tomers of REA projects and that only in exceptional instances would loans /:e approved for private companies. It has also been frequently stated by Federal REA officials that the administration do6s not care to con sider or approve loans of less than SIOO,OOO. The Macon county project, for which the SIO,OOO loan has been ap proved, marks the first instance in which a project in the far western sec tion of the State has been initiated. S f ate REA officials have been de cidedly and frankly worried by the slow progress of rural electrification in the section and are frankly pleased to see something started. The SIO,OOO approved is for use of the Rabun ; Land and Water Company, of Atlanta, Georgia, a property of J. B. McCrary, utility and real estate man of the Georgia capital. It calls for construction of 31 miles of line to serve approximately 100 customers in Rabun county, Georgia, and Macon county, North Carolina. The McCrary concern - already has a hydroelectric plant operating in the territory, serv ing 77 families. The company plans to add SB,OOO to the Federal Joan. It is ; predicted that many customers in the vicinity of Otto, Macon county, will be using electricity by next sum mar. Capital - Gossip BY HENRY AVERILt Dally Dispatch Bureau, In the Sir Walter Hotel. Raleigh, Nov. 2.—Raleigh, official and unofficial, hadn’t quite recovered today from the shock of Fordham’s defeat of the Tar Heels over at Chapel Hill Saturday. The capital had worked itself into the frame of mind where it expected a Carolina victory. There is, however, a still prevalent impression that the Wolf-coached Car olinians constitute a better than “fair to middling” football team and all hands are awaiting the Duke-Caro lina imbroglio with bated breath.

From the Brunswick capital comes this tall tale Captain Crawford Rourk and the crew of his shrimp trawler were ready for supper yesterday afternoon when the trawl brought up and unopened a 100-pound bag of grits from the bot tom of the ocean. “Now what the hell was that sack doing there?” inquired the skipper. He is still wondering, and Captain Victor Cox is still wondering who lost the hat with a ten dollar bill inside the band that his trawl picked up. As far as that goes, Sam Watts, Jr., is wondering if there are any more good five dollar bills floating around on the trawling grounds.

In Duluth, the recall of 32-year old Mayor C. R. Berghult, one of the youngest mayors in the United States, is sought on charges he has been “inefficient” and he “wasted public funds”. In Superior, Mayor Bryn Ostby’s recall is sought as a result of the city’s efforts to buy the Superior Water, Light & Power Co., although 10 charges are listed in the petition.
