Chapel Hill Mauls
Southern By 33-6
By DOUG JOHNSTON
The Chapel Hill Wildcats slosh
ed their way to a 33-6 victory at
Southern High of Durham Friday
night. Both teams had to battle
rot only each other, but also slip
pery turf and several inches o i
mud on the rain-soaked gridiron.
This victory avenged an earlier
loss to the Rebels and boosted
the Wildcats’ league record to
4-1, while the Southern squad's
mark dropped to 0-5. Overall the
Cats are 6-3; Southern is 2-6-1.
At the start the game promised
to be a "mud the first
half each team managed only one
score. Joe DiCostanzo recovered
a fumble on the Southern 32 for
the ’Cats, from where, in three
plays, they scored. Fullback Dav
id Gibson slithered over from the
five, and Danny Leigh’s kick was

Ladies, if you think that pre
occupation with beauty and gla
mour comes with maturity—for
get it. A recent survey on the
use of beauty aids by high school
girls found that the use of eye
make-up products such as eye
shadow, eyebrow pencils, eyelash
curlers, etc. has more than
doubled in the last three years.
It would appear from this that
even the lush blush of youth calls
for an assist here and there.
Also among the young set it
was discovered that 94 per cent
use hand lotion, 97 per cent find
it prudent to use a deodorant
daily and 94 per cent shampoo
their hair at least once weekly.

good. Southern, sparked- by full
back Jimmy Collins, launched a
72-yard drive in the closing min
utes of the second quarter and
the halftime mark was 7-6.
A roaring crowd of 25 Wildcat
rooters witnessed the second half
kick-off. As Coach Culton’s squad
got in the swim of things, the
rooters saw the ’Cats tally four
more times while the defense
swamped the Rebel attack.
Stan Perry started the action
with a 47-yard score from scrim
mage Minutes later he made it
20-6 as he returned a punt 53
yards to score and Leigh added
the PAT. Chapel Hill added two
more touchdowns in the final
quarter, one the climax of a 75-
yard drive as Donnie Clarke wig
gled away from two Rebels to
reach paymud from 35 yards out.
A subsequent drive was high
lighted by a 30-yard run by Leigh
to the Southern six. He then took
it the additional six yards to
score, adding the PAT on a quart
erback sneak. Score: 33-6.
Each team made three pass at
tempts, none of which were good.
Even under the game’s submarine
conditions, the Wildcats failed to
reach the line of scrimmage only
once.
Coach Culton commented that
the entire backfield (Leigh,
Clarke, Perry, Gibson) "looked
like they were not to be stopped.
Several times we felt they were
stopped at the line of scrimmage,
but they kept on digging and
eventually broke away.”
Why was the game played under
such conditions?
"Probably the reason the coach
(Southern's Terry Swanger) want
ed to play was that Southern is
known as a ’power team.’ We
like to run to the outside and
throw the ball. It worked the op
posite and we looked like a
'power team.’
“I was amazed that we didn’t
fumble; that ball stayed slippery,
muddy wet. Every time one of our
backs went through he held the
ball with both hands and tucked
it under his arm.”
The determination of the Wild
cats on the field was matched by
the Wildcats in the stands. While
at one point Southern had only
two fans in the stands, the Chap
el Hill aggregation totaled 42
spectators at its peak, with a
complete, but rain-soaked cheer
lea-iing squad.
Score by periods:
Chapel Hill 7 0 13 13-33
Southern 6 0 0 6—7

Lincoln Coach William Peerman Shows One Os His Tigers How
Lincoln Tigers: A Football Hurricane
By J. A. C. DUNN
People who mess with the Lin
coln High football team lose.
This is an established fact, as
changeless as the prevalence of
hurricanes in early autumn. The
only difference between Lincoln
and autumn is that the Tigers
extend their hurricane season
well into November.
The Tigers, a double-A team,
were Eastern District champions
in 1959, and State champions in
1960 and ’6l. They lost the State
championship game last year,
but that is their only loss in the
last 55 games, including nine
games so far this season. This
year they have been running up
scores of 40, 28, and, week before
last, a staggering 62, all follow
ed by 0 for their opponents. They
haven’t been scored on since the
championship game last year.
Their lowest score this year was
6, against Merrick-Moore. That
was a tough game. It was rain
ing hard. Thursday they squeaked
narrowly past Nash High. Every
body but the team had been a
bit worried about the Nashville
game. The team had been ready
to play the game Monday after
noon, but Coach William Peer
man's approach to Nashville had
been a bit more grave. “They're
a tough team,”-he said last Mon
day. “They have big, tall boys,”
said Lincoln principal C. A. Mc-
Dougle solemnly as classes were
excused briefly Thursday morn
ing so the students could bid
the team goodbye. The Tigers
preserved their record by a rela
tive hairline: 36-0.
Lincoln is a sort of Gordian
Knot cf North Carolina high
school football. There really isn't
much point in anybody else play
ing Lincoln. Everybody loses, like
clockwork. Things have almost
gotten to the point now where
Lincoln’s opposition defines a per
fect season as one in which every
game but one is a victory. Some
people on Lincoln’s circuit are
just this side of considering the
Lincoln game an automatic loss.
The Tigers are not a big team
in any sense of the word. Coach
Peerman has 31 boys to work
with, and regularly plays 19 of
them. He throws in the other
12 for short spells now and
then. The Tigers’ average age is
17. most of the starters are jun
iors. The heaviest man on the
squad weighs 196, and their op
ponents’ lines often average over
200. The Tigers are built much
like their namesake, long, lean,
rangy, and fast. Two or three
are quite short. One of the short
boys’ legs are of different lengths,
a congenital handicap. He limps,
but he plays guard, and if you
told him to tackle a cantering
horse, he probably would bring it
down.
“He never flinches,” said Coach
Peerman. The Coach put the
boy on the football team to “keep
him alive,” to make him see that
an odd leg didn’t render him use
less to the world. At the be
ginning of the season the boy
couldn’t do a “bicycle” during
calisthenics. Now you can't tell
the difference between his and
any other players’ "bicycles.”
"He’s a-good player,” said Coach
Peerman, “and the boys love
him. They love him." #
The real reason the Lincoln
Tigers can’t lose Is that they
won’t. It’s as simple as that.
“These boys love the game, and
they believe nobody can beat
them.” The team is as closely
knit as a percale sheet. You can

tell from watching them scrim
mage. They play football among
themselves during the summer.
From the middle of August until
school opens Coach Peerman has
them up at six in the morning
and practicing until eight, with
another two-hour practice in the
a.temoon. After school starts they
practice an hour and a half a
day.
Sartorially, the Tigers are not
impressive during practices. Their
practice pants and jerseys are
venerably worn, some notably
tattered and patched with tape.
One or two boys seem to be
trousered chiefly in tape. Their
helmets are good ones, but battle
scarred. But they don’t care. An
odd, warlike glitter flashes from
the eyes behind every face guard.
They move as though spring-driv
en; not one of them has that
lumbering stride characteristic of
the bulldozer linesman. The fast
est man on the squad consistent
ly outruns his interference when
carrying the ball and has com
plained to Coach Peerman about
having to run over his blockers in
order to get anywhere.
Aside from his own coaching
talent and the indestructible Tig
er spirit, Coach Peerman has two
chief assistants, Herbert Hargett
and Big Mike. Herbert Hargett is
a practice teacher at Lincoln and
Cfeach Peerman’s assistant. He is
built like a bison and his howitzer
voice has a note of utter con
tempt for foul-ups that stings
boys into doing it right or suffer
ing the ignominy of being sum
marily sidelined.
Big Mike is the Tigers’ charg
ing dummy. Relays of Tiger lines
practice daily hitting Big Mike
like a truck slamming into an
oak, sending it and Coach Har
gett, who rides the frame, sailing
up and down the Lincoln High
field “like tissue paper,” as
Coach Peerman put it.
The Tigers sing during calis
thenics. Thty sing “Davy Crock
ett" while doing deep knee bends,
and then they hum the tune, and
then they whistle it, and then
there’s a little spate of chatter
and they start flinging themselves
t( the ground and doing pushups,
counting cadence.
During scrimmage both lines
leap from the snap like a man
snatching at a teetering bottle.
A wirey ball carrier made ap
parently of pipecleaners leaps
over the line, around the line,
through holes made for mice, des
perate for yardage. At one point
he carried three tacklers for half
a dozen steps before going down.

Coach Peerman is a strict dis
ciplinarian. “When they get in
that monkey suit and come out
here on the field, they’re out here
to work, not to play. This is no
kidding, for keeps. There’s got
to be one boss on the field.
They've go to do what you tell
’em to, if they don’t I might as
well go home.”
They have, training rules no
smoking, reasonable bed hours,
etc. Coach Peerman knows that
some of his boys stay out late,
and that some sneak a quick
cigarette on the back path from
the school to Merritt Mill Road.
But he doesn’t go around at night
looking for them. “I tell ’em,
I’m not going out to look for them.
You don’t know where they are.
It’s a waste of gas.” They keep
or break their own rules.
Coach Peerman has deeply hol
lowed, rather sad eyes, the body
of a veteran lumberjack, and a
deep, slow, hoarse voice sugges
tive of immense authority. His
coaching technique is not the tact
ful, persuasive kind. He lowers
his head and glares with outrage
at a player who makes a mis
take. He thumps shoulders, digs
ribs, bellows orders, calls his
boys by their first names, and
Mrs. Peerman complains that the
Coach puts his team before his
lamily. “She’s almost right,” he
says. "She knows good and well
I don’t put anything above her
and the children. She’s just try
ing to get at me. But she’s al
most right.”
He was brought up in western
Pennsylvania. He loves football
as a game (“and basketball just
that much less, and baseball that
much less than that”), but he al
-so sees the game as a discipline.
It keeps boys off the streets,
away from the hangouts, out of
trouble. He was not far from de
linquency himself, so he knows.
“I got to running around with
this group of boys. I played hooky
a lot—you go to school one day,
stay out three. My cousin was
playing football, catching passes
and everything, and I wanted so
much to be like him. The coach
talked to me and talked to me,
and he told my daddy about me
staying out of school. I didn’t
know he’d told my daddy. I came
home one day, and my daddy
said ‘Take off all my clothes.’ He
had a coal miner’s belt, which
is about this thick, and he whipped
me—man. he whipped me. He set
me straight. I began to think after
that.”
He blasted the pea nearly out
of his whistle and roared, “Line
it up,” in a voice that filled every
nook and cranny of Lincoln High
School. His boys, tattered but
very proud and dangerously spring
loaded, loped off down the field
like a tribe of wildcats moving
in to take over a city block.
The boys come, and the boys
graduate. The face of the team
changes year by year. But the
spirit remains. The Lincoln Tig
ers believe they are unbeatable,
and the belief is passed on from
team to team like an heirloom,
a talisman, the key to the lock.
But it is not a rabbit’s foot in
heritance. It is a weapon.
