Macon sPorts Rounds
By J. P. BRADY
One man described 'em!
"They're tricky little cusses,
arent they?" Naturally the ref
erence was to the Panthers
when they romped out on the
local field last Friday night and
began playing the Cherokee In
dians. The "tricky" deal enters
because the Panthers junked
their deceptive "T" formation
for the entire first half and
used the single wing . . . just
for kicks, so Mentor Atkins said.
Seems the boys practiced all
week out of , the single flipper
and learned ' all of five plays
out of the formation. They must
be pretty sharp if they can take
five plays, the old single wing,
and toot up 20 points against
another team. Suffice it to say,
"they dood it." However, they
became bored in the second half
and went back to the "T".
The game, incidentally, was
cleaner than the bookies' pock
ets who gave Carolina and 28
points in the Notre Dame grid
grab bag. One of the officials,
all of whom should be congra
tulated for top flight officiat
ing, said it was a clean game . . .
This comes as a surprise to a
lot of people who have been
heeding those nasty rumors
about the Indians being a
rough bunch of boys in the
clinches. Just goes to show that
rumor doesn't mean a thing,
and in some cases will slap an
undeserving face. *
No Game
Well, the Panthers don't play
this week. Too bad Hayesville
High couldn't see its way clear
to send their football charges
over in this neck of the woods
for a play-off on that 7-7 lash
up.
Florist Wanted
Back to the Friday night
game . . . this joint is going to
resemble a flower show if it
continues to pass out "orchids"
to deserving footballers . . .
there're too many of them . . .
Considering that the Red
(hot) Panthers are well on their
way to the top in the confer
ence, and baring unforeseen cir
cumstances, should be "The
Boys" In the conference.
For the present, they seem to
be primed for jarring others'
hopes of copping the honors.
Hear over Bryson City way
that "someone is a-worrin'."
Vod-e-vilie
After seeing the locals play
the single wing and the "T",
most Panther fans wouldn't be
surprised to see the local hog
skin carriers hoof out on the
field in full black face, barber
pole coats, straw hats, and re
vive vaudeville for the gridiron.
They have done everything but
entertain at half time, so why
not.
A typical scene could be:
Endman Norton: (twirMng
cane) "Who was that woman I
saw you blocking for a while
ago?"
Endman PattiHo: (twirling
Norton) "That wasn't no wom
an. That was Nink Henry. He
just twisted his knee and ran
that way."
MAMEE ......
And speaking of Henry's knee.
He twisted It last week, but it
was nothing serious. He's a
hard man to keep down.
Toot
Hats off to the Franklin
High band for the flile half
time entertainment at the game.
It surely adds to the spirit of
the thing.
On Bended Knee
It seems that in last week's
football story (Hayesvllle) on
the front sheet it was errone
ously, and quite innocently,
stated that the Panther first
string played a full 60 minutes.
Irate fans, frothing at the
mouth, have made the following
caustic remarks.
Item 1: "Someone has lost his
head."
Item 2: "It is evident that
the sport's writer Isn't carrying
a full load of marbles upstairs."
Item 3: "What do you expect
from a junior 'Red Miller'."
O. K., so high schools only

Airborne Medical Service
For Australian Livestock
Australian veterinarians are
taking to the air to serve the
medical needs of six million
head of livestock scattered over
the western part of New South
Wales. A shortage of veterinar
ians in that area, coupled with ]
poor roads, led to a government j
decision to inaugurate an aerial |
taxi service. Traveling in small
planes with a pilot, veterinar- j
ians can make rush calls In
widely scattered townships and
settlements. Emergency airfields, 1
now used by flying physicians
and ranchers, are being utilized <
for this new service.

AMERICA IS THE . . .
BUT AMERICA IS NOT THE LAND OF THE FREE HANDOUT
Our Nation was founded on the prin
ciple that Freedom must be paid for?
and is well worth paying for.
The American people have made great sacrifices
in payment for liberty.
' But they have refused to sacrifice lib
erty for promised "security". ..to trade
v freedom for the spurious "safety" of
State Socialism.
This firm is proud to be part of a community and
a country where each American is free to worship
as he chooses? and grants that same privilege to
his neighbor... where a business is free to create
a better product, and to compete in the open mar
ket for patronage.
Unfettered by political controls, Amer- -
Icon medicine has made this the health
iest, strongest Nation in the world. So
cialized medicine would endanger our
physical health, our economic welfare
and our political freedom.
With American medicine, we say...
Lefs keep our right to manage our own lives...
to earn our liberty. ..to keep America the
