Hurricanes Lose To
Murphy Bulldogs, 26-0
The Murphy Bulldogs unleashed
a rugged ground attack and harrd
licking on Sylva's home field Fri
day night. It was the third con
secutive loss for the Hurricanes in
as many starts.
Murphy scored in the opening
minutes of the game and wer^
never headed by the luckless Sylva
boys. With first and fifteen after
a 5-yard offsides penalty, on their
own 15, Halfback Hughes of Mur
phy ran to the 28, then Brendle
took a reverse around left end and
raced 72 yards to pay dirt. Bren
dle missed the conversion and it
was Murphy 6-Sylva 0.
Hughes, Alexander and David
son each added a touchdown be
fore the third period was over and
Brendle kicked two extra points
for a 26-0 score.
The Hurricanes came out with a
surprise attack running from the
44T" formation. With only one
week's practice on the "T" the
opinion seems to be that the boys
handled it well with Walter Jones
carrying from quarterback. Joe
Pressley did the kicking for the
Hurricanes and got off several nice
ed the Sylva
boots.
V
Next Friday night finds the Hur
ricanes at Franklin and we are all
still looking for Sylva to score.

Carson-Newman Eagles
??
Beat Western Carolina, 13-7
I FIREWORKS REGAN IN
; FIRST OF LAST HALF,
MONROE SCORES
The Carson-Newman Eagles of
Jefferson City, Tennessee, un
leashed a powerful "T" formation
with several speedy backs and
drove to a 13-7 victory over the
Catamounts of Western Carolina
Teachers ? College at Cullowhee
last Saturday night.
The teams fought evenly match
ed during the first half with neith-"
er side making a prominent scor
ing threat. Then on the first play
after the kickoff by Western Car
olina's Frank Hardin to open the
last half, the fireworks began.
Quarterback Charley Moffett flip
ped a lateral to Cosson on Carson
Newman's 35 and the flashy 165
pound back raced the 65 yards to
pay dirt. The kick for conversion
was bad and the Eagles led 6-0.
Carson-Newman's second touch
down came before the third per
iod was over and was set up for
them by a fumble. Jim Bryson,
Western Carolina tailback, swept
around right end for a nine yard
gain from the Cullowhee 16 to the
25 where he was swamped by a
half dozen Eagles and lost the ball,
Carson-Newman recovered and on
the next pay Cosson lateraled to 1
Jennings who drove to the two
yard line. Harry Jaynes and Art
Byrd broke through the line and
threw Wade for a two yard loss on
the next play but Jennings went
wide around left end and crossed
the stripe for the touchdown. Mof.
fett kicked the extra point.
Catamount Coach Tom Young
sent Jim English into the game to
toss a few passes in the last per
iod with the result that he found
a touchdown in his lap before
long. With first and ten on Car
son-Newman's 36, English con
nected Paul Monroe with a pass
to the 15 and then completed an
other to Monroe for the payoff.
Frank Hardin kicked the extra
point and the game ended with the
Cats trailing 13-7.

No Gap Now Between
The Summer-Winter
Tourist Season
This year there will be little gap
between the traditional "summer"
and "winter" seasons in North
Carolina.-^ While resorts in thej
mountains began booking October!
visitors coming to view the "leaf" !
season, Sandhills resorts already
were opening, and by November,
many of their hotels will be full.
Meantime, sportfishermen took
up on the coast where the surf
bathers left off. If good weather
prevails, they will be fishing the
Cape countries into December, and
by that time the waterfowl hunt
ers will be arriving at famed Cur
rituck, Mattamuskeet and adjacent
areas.
In general, lower accommoda
tion rates are indicated by a grow
ing determination of resort own
ers to hold their peak 1946 travel
business volume despite the level
ing influence of high ^living costs
throughout the Nation'
At the close of the day's work,
washing the horse or mules shoul
