Catawba Manhandles WCTC,
44-0, On The Indian's Field
Thp big, bruising Catawba In
dians, manhandling the Catamounts
of Western Carolina, rode off with
a 44-0 victory at Salisbury, Satur
day nightT The Indians, taking ad
vantage of their superior strength,
drove to an early lead and were
never headed by the luckless Cata
mounts.
For the Indians it was somewhat
of a tradition in running wild over
the Cats. It was the two clubs
sixth meeting in 12 years and Ca-'
tawba has held the Catamounts
scoreless in all 6 of the battles
while winning them all. Spears
and Bowen sparked the Braves'
attack Saturday night while Otto
Byrd, Clark Pennell, Jim Bryson,
Ovie Heavener and Gene Grogan
looked good for the Cats. Bryson
completed 12 of 24 passes and did
a fine job of running! Byrd is
sometimes considered the fifth
backfield man on teams opposing
the Cats by the way he charges
through from guard to break up
plays.
It was the Indians fourth victory
against one defeat this year while
is was the Cats third setback in

SHOOT THE MOON

Beginning this week this corner
will attempt to predict the outcome
of several major football games
over the United States. The prob
lems of predictions are many;
previous scores on the part of the
teams predicted have to be con
sidered, the possibility of upsets is
very^reat because teams that were
once only^a^drop in the bucket"
are now packed froiti stem to stern
with ex G.I.'s, and a bit of the
sixth sense is needed on the part
o fthe predictor. So if we come up
with several unthinkable predic
tions just say we are lacking in
the sense.
First of all, we'll take Western
Carolina over Milligan?the Cats
will be out to avenge the 6-0 lick
ing the Buffs handed them last
year and they will be making
reparations for tl$p 44-0 defeat the
Catawba Indians pinned on them
last week.

Catamount To Be Named
When Monogram Club Has
Dance and Cake Walk
(A1 Booze)
At a meeting of the Monogram
club of Western Carolina Teach
ers college Wednesday night plans
were made to hold a iquare dance
ar.d cake walk in the near future.
Clark Penn.ll, Lenoir, president
of the club, ?aid that musicians
for the dance would be obtained
from the club's membership.
The problem of naming the
school's mascot, a catamount?this
catamount being a Texas ocelot?
was taken up, and it was decided
to ask the student body to furnish
a name by means of a contest. All
students will be invited to sub
mit names, which will be judged
by a committee composed of the
president and^two additional mem
bers of each class.. It was decided,
too, to build the animal an attrac
tive cage, which will be designed
by Miss Charlotte Watson, art

ANSWERS TIMELY
FARM QUESTIONS i
QUESTION ? Does peanut hay
have any value in maintaining
soil fertility?
ANSWER ? Because of the con
venience in harvesting peanut hay
and its feeding value, it is likely
that many growers will costinue
to feed it. The fertilizating value of
the hay, or the value of the man
ure produced from animals con
suming ? the 'hay, should not be
underestimated and the greatest
care should be taken in handling
^he hay, conserving the manure
and returning them to the land.
One ton of peanut hay contains
fertilization nutrients equivalent
to 246 pounds o-f nitrate soda, 49
pounds of lime, 29 pounds of 18
per cent superphosphate, 82 pounds
of 50 per cent muriate of potash,
14 pounds of 92 per cent magnes

Of Row
"Retonga made life pleasant for
me when it locked like I was about
done for, and it would be impossi
ble to express my gratitude to
the medicine," states Mr. Ferd P. |
Veeck, Petersburg, Ind., former
county/attorney, republican com
mitteeman, newspaper publisher,
and one of the most highly re
spected men in Southern Indiana.
"I suffered tortures from indi
gestion after- every meal, and by
four o'clock in the afternoon f felt
almost completely exhausted,"
continued Mr. Veeck. "In the mid
dle of each sunnmer I had to stay
away from my office for weeks,
and I spent most of the time in
bed. In '39 I had an old gentleman
about 75 working in my garden.
Neither the intense summer heat
or the ha^d work seemed to both
er him while I, as usual, was
barely able to be up. He told me
he took Retonga and advised me
to try it.
"Before I finished the first bot
tle of Retonga I felt so greatly re
lieved that I began to eat better
and feel stronger. By the time 1
finished three boitles I felt better
and stronger than in years. I have
continued to enjoy unusual streng
th and good feeling. Retonga was
grand for me, and I hope this
statement will enable som^jie
else to regain the* joy ofTTving as
I did."
Mr. Veeck is one of hundreds of
prominent men and women prais
ing this famous medicine. Retonga
is intended to relieve distress due
to insufficient flow of digestive
juices in the stomach, loss of ap
petite, vitamin B-l deficiency, and
constipation^ Retonga may be ob
tained at the Sylva Pharmacy-adv.

Mrs. Hughes's Room
Has Chapel Program
Continuing the chapel programs
sponsored each week by one of the
grades in the Sylva Elementary
school, the one last week was
given by the grade taught by Mrs.
Glenn Hughes.
The program was in the form of
two health plays, "First Aid for
Kitty" and "Bennie Takes a Bath".
These programs are educational
as well as entertaining.
This program was given on
Thursday afternoon instead of the
usual Friday, as school was closed
on Friday so thg teachers could
attend the meeting of the west
ern district of the North Carolina
Education Association being held
at the auditorium in Asheville
that afternoon and evening.
Sylva teachers attended 100 per
cent with the exception of those
who had to accompany the ball
team and band to Andrews where
they played that afternoon.
