Norlina Downed By Davie
In First Game Of Year
By GARY McCL'LLOIGH
The Blue Waves of Norlina
suffered their first conference
loss during the season opener
Friday to Wm. R. Davie. The
visiting Blue Devils, coached
by newly appointed John
Corbitt, had no trouble In down
ing the Waves 32-12.
Scoring action began late in
the first quarter, and was set
up by Norlina's defensive line.
Davie elected to run In a 4th
and J,, situation, but failed to.
-gain jneeded' y'ajdafej-ty^kVi:
ing ptyssqssion on the Davie 40* <
quarterback Mike Seaman made
the handoff to Francis Alston,
who lugged the ball for the tally.
The conversion failed, and the
Waves lead by six at the start
of the second quarter.
Whitmore's klckoff gave the
Blue Devils possession on their
own 30, and they were quick
to offset Norlina's edge. Quar
terback Robert Godwin, red
dogged by the Waves front four,
m ade a forced sweep around left
end and ground to the Norlina
30 before being Stopped. An
illegal procedure penalty put
Davie back on the 40, but anot'
er sweep by Godwin, this time
to the right, saw the Devils tie
the game 6- all. Losing a fum
ble on the Davie 30 made
Norlina relinquish possibilities
for a second touchdown in the
first hall.
A Davie fumble early In the
third period gave the Waves
another opportunity, but Als
ton's fumble on the 10 gave {be
Devils the ball again. From here
Davie began adrive jutfiich would
end In their second tally. Fol
lowing two 1st downs in seven
plays, Eakes, on a handoff
from Godwin, drove through the
line and went all the way for a
55 yard touchdown.
Falling to get their offense
rolling after the kickoff, the
Waves had a second chance when
a Davie fumble on their 45
gave Norllna control once
more. Conwell'sdropplngNor
lina's Francis Alston well be
hind the line of scrimmage
hastened the punt, however, and
Davie began their drive for the
third tally. After gaining 20
yards on the ground, the Devils
opened an aerial attack as God
win connected with Evans on the
Norlina 40; Evans completed the
run into the end zone for a
60 yard touchdown pass. A Nor
llna fumble on the 16 yard
line gave Davie another op
portunity to score, and In four
plays the Devils hit paydlrt
again to lead 24-6.
Squire recovered still an
other Norlina fumble on the
Waves 35, but It was not until
the tall exchanged hands once
again that Davie was able to
score their fifth tally. Godwin
completed a 30 yard aerial
to Eakes, who again went all
the way for a 70 yard touch
down play. Following a suc
cessful run around rightendfor
the 2 points, the Blue Devils
lead 32-6.

The environment In which
we live Is being Increasingly
brought Into sharper focus as
the population Increases and
our urban and rural commun
ities become more and more
crowded.
The achievement of a de
sirable quality of environment
will depend heavily on a
common alignment of purpose
and a mutually acceptable
standard among all segments
of human society - the scien
tific community, private in
dustry, public funding agen
cies, and the masses of hu
manity whose attitudes and
practices contribute to the
state of our environment as we
know It today.
"In our times of unprece
dented change, biologists are
aware of the rapidly growing
ability of their fellow human
beings to alter the face of the
earth through technology. But
they are equally aware that
these alterations can bringfar
spreading and often destruc
tive changes in the web
of life that is stretched so
thinly over the surface of our
planet. Our technology has
out-paced our understanding;
and our cleverness has grown
faster than our wisdom."
One aspect of the environ
ment around us was brought
Into sharp focus by North
Carolina's own Dr. Hugh H.
Bennett who was the first
Chief of the Soil Conservation
Service. R was Dr. Bennett
who dramatized the dust
storms in the 1930?s "....as
not only depleting the soil on
the ?reat Pliins, but also
creating enormous pollution
of the atmosphere."
This was approximately 35
years ago. Think what has
happened In the Intervening
! y?ars - more dust, fumes from
caxs and Industrial stacks,
pollution of our streams and
ravaging of our forests, to
name a tew.
Can we look forward, with
confidence, to Improvement in
the next 35 rears? Or are m
