We'll see what Coach James Barnwell has in store 'for some ten teams an ihd Hurricane schedule. We're not pr dieting a great year for them, but we, along with some feV hundred others, would like to see Sylva High get out of the kinks and do something on the field. We think that that is exactly what will happen this year. Regardless of whether Coach Barnwell puts out an undefeated club in his ?first] year ir^ Sylva, we know that he'll put a hustling bunch of boys on the field. Sylva and Hayesville should be of equal strength; it will be a good game. From the looks of things, both clubs will go onto the field in a fighting mood. Both clubs will be out to start their season with a bang. Friday night will tell who bangs the loudest. Seventy men arrived in Cullo whee last Wednesday to open their practice drills in preparation for the 1948 Western Carolina football campaign. Most of them are in excellent 'condition, Coach Tom Young reports, and are ready to get down to some rugged business. They're really gunning for a good season. With the opening game only a little more than a week off, they also are rushing things. Things have grown quiet on the heavyweight problem in the box-! ing world. Perhaps it's only about! to burst loose when Ezzard Charles ? and Joe Baksi tangle November 12th. We'll take Charles, as we said a week ago, to be the future champ until something better comes along. College Baseball Staffs ; Should Be Improved i A B. (Happy) Chandler, com-' missioner of baseball, says that' college baseball coaching staffs will have to be improved before they can expect professional outfits to 1 lay off their players until they finish schcol. The colleges say they are moving Georgia Tech Looks | Like Power of SEC Georgia Tech, last year's Orange 3owl winners, looks like the team to beat in the Southeastern Con ference as the lid blows off the 1948 football campaign. All-America Bobby Davis and durable Ralph Slaten are lost at tackles, along with Quarterback Jim Still and halfback George Matthews, but Coach Bobby Dodd is not crying about that. Instead,: he is looking for someone to take their places. Tech is well balanced at end, guard, center and fullback. Thirty returning lettermen will be back to answer Dodd's call. The passing attack should be rugged again this year, although Still, last year's ace chunker, has turned pro. Several ends includ ing glue fingered Jimmy Castle berry and George Brodnax, are still around to snag those passes. In Glancing over the Tech outfit, it locks like seven teams of the SEC are in for it as they step to che line to butt heads with the I Atlanta boys this fall. Catamount Jayvees Meet Asheville Maroons Friday The Western Carolina "B" foot-; ball squad gets off to an early start tomorrow night when they take cn Coach "Plowboy" Farm-; r's Asheville Maroons in Ashe-' villeV Memorial Stadium. The game originally scheduled between the Maroons and Salisbury high was cancelled due to the fact that the polio ban on Salisbury has not yet been lifted. The Cata mount club is expected to furnish as good, if not a better game, than Salisbury ,would have. The college team will be made up of boys just out of high school who have had only a week and a half of practice, so the Marocns, being a high school team, will not be at a disadvantage on that ac count since they have been drilling for several weeks and already have one game under their belts, a 6 to 6 tie with Erwin. Tenn. Coach Tom Young of Westerni Carolina says the two should stack i up on about an equal basis andj to make baseball a major sport What pro ball wants is college baseball under capable coaching that will develop their players for professionalism. Heretofore, it has been one of the fifth or sixth football coaches doing the coaching of the base ball team. The college baseball' player coming into pro ball did not have the proper fundamentals of the game?and he was too old :o learn them in time to make the grade to the big time. By strengthening their coach ing staffs, colleges would improve their own teams and help get their kjoys ready for a professional car eer alter college. It would great ly imp rove' the ties between col leges and professional baseball. that the Catamounts will be han dled by "B" string coaches Bill, Swift of Waynes ville and Jake Atkinson of Hamlet. However, he stated that either he or Coach "Tuck" McConnell will be on the' Catamount bench throughout the game. Members of the Catamount fresh-' man squad who will play in the game Friday night and the high schools they played for are as fol lows: Ends: Charlie Underwood, Lum 'oerton; Erwin Booth, Greenwood, S. C.; and Kelly Moses, Franklin, Ti.ckles: E. F. Stewart, Hender sonville; Erwin Green, Cliffside; and Bruce Burleson, Bakersville Guards: Todd Kimsey, Hiawassee Ga.; and Jim Bergin, Black Moun tain. Centers: Buddy Padgett, Hayesville; and Stewart Brown, L xington. Backs: Tommy Seltzer Blue Ridge School (or Boys at Hendersonville; Paul Rogers.. Mooresville; Joe Pressley, Sylva; and Jimmy Johnson, Lexington. Others making the trip will be Jim Whitaker, Kannapoli$ full back; Pete Litaker, Leaksville fullback; and Herbert Dow less. Elizabethtown blocking back. Pressley is the long distance kicker who averaged around 65 years per try last year for Sylva. Rogers and Litaker were both out standing fullbacks in high school and both are veteran ground gain ers. Coach Young stated that his line will average around 170 pounds, while the backt'ield will average 160. The Catamount "B" squad sched ule is as follows: Sept. 10?Asheville high at Ashe ville. Sept. 18?Brevard at? Brevard. Oct. 1?Marion High at Marion C^t. 9?Asheville-Biltmcfre at Asheville. Oct. 23?Blue Ridge at Hender sonville. Nov. 5?Gardner-Webb at Shel by. Nov. 13?Brevard at Cullowhee Nov. 20?Newberry "B" at New berry, S. C. Charles Baksi Will Fight Nov. 12 The 20th Century Sporting Club of New York has announced the signing of Ezzard Charles and Joe Baksi fcr a heavyweight fea ture fight to be held in Madison Square Garden November 12tn. Both fighters are ranking fist men of the heavyweight group. This bout may be the start of the campaign to select a successor to Joe Louis' vacated throne. Char les and Baksi are rated as two of the outstanding men to compete for the crown. Barnwell And Barnwell?Rivals As if the old football feud be tween Sylva and Bryson City were not enough, both towns had to go and get two brothers for coanhea. Both Barnwells, James of Sylva and Howard of Bryson City, were members of Catamount football clubs at Western Carolina, and both know enough to find their way around the gridiron. When November 5th rolls a round, we'll get to see the broth ers put their teams against each other. The game will be played on Sylva's-Mark Watson Field. It will be interesting to see who comes out on top. And Your Strength and Energy Is Below Par It may be auaad by disorder of kid nay (unction that permit# poiaonoua wute to accumulate.
