scription of the name, Williamston
High School’s Green Wave Friday |
night takes the field at Bessemer
'City against the team from that |
, town to deride the C lass A chain- i
pjonship of the State.
The game was at first set for

sponsoring the broadcast whilt at

v——s
The committee named to
raise funds for the purchase
of a school activity bus for
Williamston is nearing its
goal and a meeting will be ■
held in the office of Wheel
er Martin tonight at 1:30 to
name a sub-committee to ar
range for the purchase of the ;
vehicle. '
Starting out with a net of
$1540.00 from the Plymouth- i
Williamston game for which
special Bus Fund tags were
sold, donations have pushed
the fund on up toward the
$3700 goal and last night it
was reported the money was
in sight for the bus and it is
now hoped that there will he
funds for a heater.
Those handling the chartered
, hus for local fans noted this morn
V
inr that there is always a possi
bility that someone will not be
able to make the trip and sug
i gested that anyone not having a
way to go report to the bus sta
tion tomorrow morning in rase a
i seat should be available.
The seniors are traveling by
; chartered bus also.
Some bruises and possibly a lit
, tie soreness lingered on but for the
' most p o t all members of the team
| are ready to go. Wallace Warren,
.-ustainiug a severe cut over the
ve in the Massey Hill game at t
Goldsboro, is expected to be ready
ii go against Bessemer City and }
n his job of holding down left
■nd will have to stop the end- 1
iround play of big Huffstctler of
Jessemer City, the left end who
•omes back around right to carry
he ball a lot and has been fairly
luccessful at the job this season.
While not too much is known of
Bessemer City here, it is reported
ay sports fans from that section
that they run from the split T for
mation, that they hit the center a
lot with right half, Harmon, and
left half, Robinson, doing most of
the carrying. Against this May
nard will use his single wing at
tack which has been fairly suc
cessful this year, good enough in
fact to win the last 9 games,in a
row. In combatting the T attack
Maynard has also been pretty suc
cessful this year and his team has
had plenty of experience against
this method of play. The split T
has also been faced some, Ahoskie
using a variation of that on some
plays.
In trying for extra points. Bes
semer City has usually attempt
ed to run the ball over instead of
kicking. H. Kiser, right end, got
most of that work in the Guilford
game where hi' scored two extra
points.
There appears no way of rating
the two teams since they have not
. had any mutual opponents and no
i team played by either has played
'a team played by the other this
I season. Ordinarily, the team from
' the east would be considered the
stronger, but there is another i
! in that since the game is beinj
1 played on the home field of the
1 western representative. Definite

as an underdog, but neither can i

observer lias noted that when the
Williamston line is charging, the
'Green Wave is a hard team to get
along with, but there have been
spots when the line failed to hit
quick and hard and the attack
I was not too impressive. It the

The Green Wave does not take to

able to do so if necessary to loosen

In the line, Jimmy Myers, <i'2"

Boys who get a lot of work in the

game in the backfield either as a
runner or passer.
In their game against Guilford
for the western title. Bessemer
City used Huffstetler and Kincaid
at left end, Richardson and Poe at
left tackle. J. Delk at left guard,
Kuhn and Cofield at center, kails ,
and Costner at light guard, Dam
cron and Horn at right tackle, K.
Kiser and Steele at right end,
i Thomas and John Delk at quarter
j back, Robinson at left half. Har
mon and Hoyle at right halt, H
Kiser and King at fullback.
This is the final game of the sea- ]
ion for both teams anti they are
'xpeeted to throw in all that they
an to get the victory. It is a big
opportunity for the football team
.if Williamston and the boys are
not likely to throw it away. Just
before the Weldon game. Coach
Maynard told his boys they could
go all the Way and he saw no
reason for not doing it. So far
they have stayed with him and it
will take a good team to sidetrack
them. After playing three games
in 8 days against undefeated foes,
the Green Wave boys took a phy
sical pounding that was tough, but
they have had a few days of rest
now and should be ready for this
big one. They, of course, get the
Eastern title awards but they art
after the top ones, the big tropin
and the gold footballs.
