Marion Defeats Hendersonville Bearcats 31 To 0 Here Friday Playing a bang-up game of ball all the way the Marion high school Rippers defeated the Henderson ville liigh school Bearcats 31 to 0 in a football game played on the high school athletic field Friday night before a crowd of approxi- j mately twelve hundred fans. Dan McCall spearheaded the Rip per offensive as he tossed two touchdown passes during the game. The Ditt-Gibson coached eleven i were held scoreless only in the third period, scoring two markers [ in the first quarter, another in the second and two more during the j first period to run the total score to thirty-one points. Marion received to begin the game but was soon forced to kick.! The visitors likewise were unable to gain on the ground and returned the kick. Again the Rippers were forced to punt, but the whole team was down under the ball, and after a hard tackle causing a Bearcat back to fumble the ball Carl Walk-, er recovered on the twenty yard line for the Rippers to set the stage for the first score of the contest. McCall and Hammett teamed to gether to go the distance, with Hammett driving over from the three yard line for the marker. The ( try for extra point failed and the j Orange and Black eleven were out in front with six points. A few minutes later Dan McCall ( flipped a beautiful pass to Carl Mc- • Galliard on the Hendersonville fif teen yard line and he went over for Marion's second score standing up just before the first quarter ended. In the second period the Bear- j cats came to life and threatened to j score on several occasions. In one j drive the visitors went to the Rip per two yard line, but the rugged, Marion forward wall stiffened and j the ball went over on downs. The sterling play of the Rippers line' also stopped several other less ser ious threats during the period as I the Bearcats took to the air in an j effort to find a Ripper weak spot, j With Hammett and Atkins; sparking the drive the Rippers be-! gan to roll early in the third quar- ] ter, but the Bearcat line braced itself and Hendersonville took over i on downs, but was soon forced to t kick. Marion took over on the forty ( yard line and started another drive ( which ended with McCall passing to 1 Carl McGalliara in the end zone. jJ During the same period another | pass from Atkins to captain Alvin Rader set up another Marion score. Rader carried to the Hendersonville four yard line, and on the next play Stanton carried the ball over on a well executed reverse. Coach Ditt used every man on the bench during the last quarter, with the second and third string teams playing the majority of the time. In an effort to take advan tage of this situation for a score Hendersonville took to the air, but McNeely, reserve Ripper coach, stepped in and stopped the enemy march as he intercepted a Bearcat aerial on the Marion forty yard line and raced sixty yards for the final tally of the game. Throughout the entire game the Orange and Black team played ex cellent ball. The team work was outstanding and the tackling was hard and low. The blocking also showed material improvement over that of previous games played on the home field. The Marion line did its work in splendid fashion, both on offense and defense. This forward wall worked as a unit on the several tim es the Marion goal was threatened as it dug in and withstood the at tack. The Rippers will go to Ruther forton for a game with Tri-High to morrow. This game should be one of the best of the season. The Rip pers will go into the game as a favorite, but there is always danger of an upset. Coach Ditt stressed this point as he drilled his team for the games throughout the early portion of this week. RIPPER SCHEDULE Oct. 28—Rutherfordton-Spindale, it Rutherfordton.
