Stymied on the ground the vis itors took to the air but the attack was not strong enough to open the ground defenses and so both of- i fensive efforts were stopped be- ! fore they could get started. lthough they did not score un- I At the hall-time in the W'illiamston - Plymouth foot ball game here last Friday night both the Williamston and Plymouth football bands put on drills and maneuvers, the Plymouth band c_o inj n g _on_ first and the Green Wave following with a skit on the old movie theme of "Little Nell" who was in peril of be ing forced to marry the rich old villain who held the mort gage on her home. She was rescued to the accompani ment of appropriate music. The Plymouth band showed great improvement and the Green Wave show, as always was roundly applauded. tfl the third quarter, \yilliams ton dominated the play through out. In the first half Plvmout got only one first down and th four in the second half were no too impressive as one was on couple of straight penalties mark td up against the Green Wave am the other was on the dying play o the game. While it was known that worl on defenses against Plymouth wa underway and that the boys wet anxious to take this game, it wa a surprise to everyone when th Green Wave took over methodic ally and purposefully in the open ing plays'of the game and the maintained their strength all th way. It was definitely the bos second half effort of the seasoi for the Green Wave Much as they may feel like il Coach Carrolly Blackerby and hi new cannot afford to relax thi week as they go to Scotland Neel to lace an improved Scot team uu I tier a new coach who had them up i to where they held Ahoskie to a ^ 5»-53 s'. ore at the. half in Aharkvd iast Friday rught. If Williamston j 'can play as it did against Plym ' outli there will he no doubt about | I the som e at Scotland Neck but i . ftl.c team !ia. cOc' piolelti ol dls I counting Plymouth's 38-0 win jjuvei lb Scvits p'lci'S' an urge io i ,.look past Scotland Neck at the Ahoskie game on November 7 in 'the Williamston park--a game of! even greater importance now that | Plymouth is out of the way. A w in over Ahoskie would give the j Williamston boys their second tie for the conference championship m two vears after having tafcen the crow'n in 195(1 wi't'h a clean sweep of flic conference. To try to single out the heroes of Friday night's victories would . be running the risk of overlook ing one of the boys who played his heart out so this department [foregoes that for the present and .at the close of the play by play will list those who played in the I game.
