PISGAH FOREST BALL CLUB WINNERS
OF TRI-COUNTY LEAGUE PENNANT
(By DOUG)
Frank Carr's outfit are th.e proud
possesors of a miniature gold base
ball each, as result of their winning
the pennant in the Tri-County
League, composed of teams from
Pisgah Forest, Brevard, Canton and
Marshall.
Final count for the Carrmen gave
them 12 wins to six losses, being a
wide margin over their nearest rival,
Brevard, who had 9 of each; Canton
finished third with 8-10, while Mar
shall holds to the bottom rung with
7 wins and 11 losses, three of these
losses, however, being forfeits, two
to Brevard and one to Pisgah.
Next Year? Sure
Although no official announce*
ment has been made regarding the
season here next year, it is gener
ally understood that Brevard will
have a team. Frank Carr is certain
to bring forth his brilliants again
next season, after winning the pen
nant of the Tri-County loop. Sup
port in the new ball park, while
not paying a dividend to players,
has come within a reasonable mar
gin of paying expenses. Next year
there will be no park to build an
other item of expense cut down.
Members of the two local teams
who played out the season were:
Pisgah: Carr, manager and extra
pitcher; Ailison, field; Edwards, sec
ond; Pruett, second; Gibson, O.
Goodman, pitchers; Osteen, first;
R. Bryson, third-catcher; Daniels,
field; Clayton, short; Ross, field;
H. Goodman, field-first; Short, field;
Carter, field ; Jlorris, catcher.
Brevard: Holt, manager and util
ity; Paxton, catcher-field; Bryson,
infield-catcher; Scruggs, third; T.
Carson, field; Jones, field; Davis,
field; Price, first; Payne, pitcher;
Simmons, short; Breese, field; Z.
Carson, pitcher; English, second.
Pisgah Forest closed the season
here last Saturday by shutting out
the fast semi-pro team from Ly/nan,
S. C., (5-0. Gibson and R. Bryson
were counted as stars in the game,
Gibson by reason of his masterful (
hurling, allowing only four scatter
ed hits; while Bryson socked one
over the fence with two men on, bo
sides catching a nice game.
The PotUcript
Though many people have not
thought of it, a considerable amount
of nerve and optimism was used by
Frank Carr and Lawrence Holt when
they made the progressive step of
building a park for this community.
The thanks of the community and
the whole-hearted gratitude of fans
should go to these two boys who
took the lead.
FOOTBALL HOLDS
THE BOARDS NOW
With the baseball season in this
section of the state over, fans are
turning their eyes to the king of
games, football. Brevard fans have
their eyes on the High School squad
which gives promises of being the
crack eleven of football history here.
Ineligible^ and failures have been
weeded out in the practice and scrim
mage play;: of the local team and a
total of 27 men are still under the
watchful eye of Coach Tilson, the
majority of whom show good stuff.
Workouts are being held regularly
each day in anticipation of the first
game of the season ? with Brevard
Instiutte on the local gridiron on
September 27. Last year the High
School ran away with the Institute
hunch by a large score in their first
go. But a different tale will be told
this year, B. I. being more adept at
the game by reason of the fact that
last year was their first year in foot
ba!l. The second game will be with
Christ School, here, October 1. The
Blue Devils held Coach Fayssoux's
brilliants to two points in the game
. t Christ School last year. This was
their first victory, Christ School hav
overwhelmed the Blue Devils in the
two preceding years.
Other games scheduled are with
Canton. Weaver, Biltmore High,
Swananoa, and Grace, with several
open dates. Of course, Henderson
ville, foe of foes, since time imme
morial to Brevard fans, will be
played on Thanksgiving.
Last year's record was 6 wins 2
ties and two losses. Weaver High
and Canton were the only two teams
to down the locals. Mars Hill and
Hendorser.ville lied. Wins were
chalked up against Christ School,
Brevard Institute, Biltmore, Grace,
Swannanoa, and Sylva Collegiate In
stitute.
BARTON REUNION CALLED
FOR 2ND SUNDAY IN OCT.
On the Second Sunday in October,
the Barton Reunion will be held at
the Timothy Barton home on Little
River. All relatives and friends are
urged to attend, and all are asked to
bring well filled dinner baskets as
there will be a picnic dinner at the
noon hour.

BRUTAL ASSAULT

Howell home. It was said there that |
the Howell boys were "bad men," I
and that warrants were out for some
of them, warrants that have net as ?
yet been served. The father of the j
boys was making his way homeward j
when he saw the officers going in the I
direction of his home. Ho was rid
ing a fine horse, and made effort to
pass the cars. Had he done this, of- '
ficers say, he would have outdist- :
anccd the officers, because the horse j
could make better time over the j
rough roads than could the cars. The
officers outwitted the old man, :
caught his horse, made him dismount i
and left guards with him while oth- !
ers went on to the Howell home.
Nearing the residence the officers
scattered, so as to surround the
house. At a given signal, the men
were to advance at one instant on
the house. Will Howell, however,
had gone across to the top of an
other hill to bring the cows in for
the night. As he topped the ridge ,
he could see Sheriff Patton and his
party plainly. Walking on in leis
urly manner, Will proceded until he
crossed the top of the ridge, and im
mediately fired his revolver as a
warning to the brothers in the house
that the officers had been sighted.
Then the scramble began, the officers
charging in from all directions. !
After a two-hundred yard chase, the
men were captured and the brace
lets placed about their wists.
But Will was gone. After giving
the alarm, he took to the cliffs, and
diligent search failed to locate him.
It is said the men have a bad repu
tation in Haywood county, and as a
mark of their standing, it is said
that several of the special Haywood
county officers in the group hunting
for them were relatives of the How
oil boys, but anxious to witness their
arrest.
The three Howells were taken
Wednesday morning to Jackson
county, where the trial will be held,
as the crime was committed in that
county.
Of the first five men arrested, vho
proved to be not connected with the
Shuford case, some of them were
taken back to Henderson county
where it is said they are wanted on
other charges.
George Shuford is one of the most
prominent and popular men in (he
county, and the brutal attack upon
him, the beating and cuttine -'iver
him. aroused the citizenship of Tran
sylvania county. He was taken ;m
mediately to the Transylvania Hos
pital, where he is now reported to be
improving.

They Lost Their Nerve
One fine young man and his promised bride made
arrangements to be married in our store, as announc
ed some time ago, but they have lost their nerve, and
say they prefer to slip off to Sduth Carolina some Sun
day and be quietly married allf by themselves.
We are sorry about this, for other couples that
had expressed their desire to be married in our store
and receive as a wedding present the Living Room
Suite which we offered were told that arrangements
had already been made. Now, it seems, there will be
no wedding at our store. But ?
OTHER MARRIED COUPLES
Are coming to our store daily and buying their Furni
ture, their good Roman Ranges, their Wood and Coa!
Heaters, and other things that every well regulated
home needs. They come here because we have a large
stock of good furniture, reasonably priced, and give
most liberal terms to the .purchasers. So, whether we
have a wedding in the sttfre or not, we can contribute
much comfort and convenience to those already mar
ried. V
