ConferenalWin Over Norlina In Game Here
The Norlina Blue Waves suf
fered their fourth conference
loss at Warrenton this Friday
losing to the John Graham Yel
low Jackets 61-0. The victory
gave the Jackets a 2-1 confer
ence record, and was due in no
small part to the fine offensive
blocking efforts by the Graham
line.
Following a Norlina punt to
the Waves' own 40, John Gra
ham, in eight carries, scored
her first six points with A1
Floyd's sweep around right end
from 10 yards out. Leon Ed
monds made the conversion and
Warrenton led 8-0. John Gra
ham scored again with 43 sec
onds rei.iaining in the first per
iod as Edmonds plilnged from
the 4. His kick for the PAT
was good.
Four minutes later Floyd
scored his second tally for the
Jackets on a 20 yard run to his
left behind superb blocking; Ed
mond's attempt for the addition
al two points was stopped by
Gary Egerton for the Waves.
Following this the Waves
came close to scoring them
selves whenKent Whitmore's 15
yard return of the klckoff gave
Norlina a 1st and 10 on its
25. A handoff to Weldon Rook
resulted in the Senior fullback's
{carry to the 50, after nearly
breaking loose and going all the
way. Waverly White then gave
the Jackets a lesson on how to
throw the bomb, rifling a 50
yard pass to David Brantley,
who had successfully eluded his
defender; there, at the Graham
5, Norlina saw its hopes of
scoring thwarted when the ball
slipped from the receiver's
fingers. A penalty against
Norlina on the next play forced
the Waves to punt.
In control once more on the
Warrenton 34, the Jackets let
Edmonds carry in four plays
to the Norlina 29. A1 Cooper
swept to his left end ground
to the 3; Edmonds, in two car
ries, lugged the ball for his
second tally and the Jackets'
fourth. Floyd's conversion
brought the score to 29-0 at the
half.
To open the third quarter Ed
monds and Clarence Thomp
son shares the glory in bringing
the ball down for the score.
It was Edmonds who found pay
dirt from 1 yard out, however,
and went on to make the con
version as well.
Here again Norlina fought
back, beginning with Francis
Alston's 20 yard kickoff return.
Grinding out a 1st down al the
50, Norlina was assisted
by a IS yard penalty against
the Blue and Gold. Once more,
the Waves plowed through for a
1st down at the Graham 25
due to White's quarterback
sneak. Unfortunately for the
visitors, a fumble was recover
ed by the Yellow Jackets,
and four plays later Floyd ran

unscathed Into the end zone for
the sixth Graham TD? The con
version was good and gave War
renton a 45-0 edge.
The Jackets recovered an
other fumble on the Norlina26.
This drive, which saw Donnle
Walker's being Injured In a
goal line stand, ended in Ed
monds diving in from the 2
yard line for his fifth touch
down. Floyd added two more
points to the score to close the
period.
Early in the fourth quarter,
Cooper culminated the scoring
for the Jackets in lugging the
ball into the end zone on a
double reverse. Cooper was
also responsible for scorlngthe
conversion and gave Graham
her 61-0 victory edge.

Mild tvsets and wry close
matches featured the opening
round play among members of
Warrenton Golf Club who are
vising for feted honors in Lad
les and Men's divisions of the
dub Championship tournament
now In full swing. -
The Ladles completed play
offs for flight placement last
week with favorites winning in
the top bracket while the lower
bracket furnished one or two
disappointments for some of the
girls who had higher aspirations
this year.
Rhada Currin, defending lady
champ, Helen Banzet, runner
up last year and former cham
pion, Bettye Benton and Mar
guerite Miles all won their play
off matches and gained cham
pionship flight standing. Grace
Miles, Selma Perkinson,
Juanlta Wood and Winnie Nunn
were victims of the champion
ship foursome and now compete
for top honors In first flight.
Peggy Shear in, Ruth Bugg,
Margaret Traynham, and Julia
Currin won playoffs and are
second flight competitors while
Emily Burrows, ConnWhltford,
Lela Holt and Patty Brauer,
the losers, are assigned
third flight positions. Opening
round, sudden death matches
are scheduled for October 19, In
all flights for the ladles.
Joev Gilbert, three-time win
ner of the club championship
ahd favorite to repeat, has been
eliminated. Joey, a student and
member of the golf team at At
lantic Christian College, came
home last weekend to defend |
his title In opening round play
and was immediately dethroned.
The Giant Killer was Duke Miles
a versatile golfer, volceful
competitor and former club
champion. The victory was
decisive for Miles who now
looms as a decided dark horse
to go all the way.
The number two man in cham
pionship flight position, Junie
Drake, also went down to de
feat as Phil Daniel, another
former club champion applied
the gas. Drake had a number
of low scores in play through
out the season and was picked
by some as a possible winner
but he did not have it with him
Sunday afternoon and that is a
fatal mistake in competition
with Phil Daniel. DanieHooJTa
commanding lead mid-way the
match but Drake stayed in the
game and cut the lead to one
hole with a birdie on number
fifteen. However, Phil sank a
35 foot birdie putt on the en
suing hole and closed out Drake
on the seventeenth. Daniel, a
college student at Elizabeth
City, could easily take home all
the marbles if he continues his
steady play.
J. R. "Joe" Gilbert, father of
Joey, the "old pro" in every
sense, was taken the limit in his
match with Bobby Edmonds. Joe
found himself in serious trou
ble late in the gime and had
to call on all his golfing prow
ess to pull even at the end of
eighteen holes. Edmonds had a
chance on the final hole to win
but luck was not with him as a
speak out now, the vocal
minority in this country will
most certainly take over all
that is meaningful in this land
of ours. No one seeks peace
more urgently than the Vet
erans of Foreign Wars, but
we will not seek peace at any
price which is what the vocal
minority is calling for today."
