Besides the time saved in the Knox ville trips, the expense account doel not run near as high a it does when a pilgrimage is made to the Nortn Carolina institutes of learning for a vame. Western North Carolina and East ern Tennessee have more in common than does tins end of the state and the eastern part of North Carolina. The western part of North Carolina and Tennesseee have worked hand in mind on par matters, and there is a closer relationship now than ever be fore. While Piedmont and Eastern Carolina have given every assistance possible, there is a lack of general understanding as to our 'respec tive needs. The University of Tennessee, under the capable coaching of I!"b Ncylumt is turning out teams that are attract ing nation-wide recognition, and pro viding fans with n)l the thrills that t;;il be c: peeked' on the: gridiron.

The Canton Black Hears met their match on the Canton field last Friday night under the arcs as the second string from Asheville tied them up in a (i to score in one of the hardest fought games on the Canton field. The Black Bears were scheduled to play the Brevard eleven in a Blue Ridge Conference tilt, but for some reason the Brevard team canceled the game, and Asheville was substituted. To be outweighed as bad as the Asheville team was, they put up a splendid scrap, and with the superb cunning of. Woody, back for the Maroons, the ball was kept in Can ton's territory most of the time.

This game is one of the feature games in this sec tion for the week-end. llenderson ville has won all ot their Blue Ridge Conference games, having lost only one game so far this season, to Marion which is not in the 'conference. Tlie ('anion team came out of the game last Friday in splendid condi tion and are picked as favorites in the coming game. So far this season the Black Bears have not suffered a defeat,' and it is predicted that the hardest games are behind them. Casey at Bat?

While the six-men teams have not had an opportunity to fully demonstrate their ability and show their wares, it stands to reason that six-men teams cannot furnish the action, and the thrills as the present eleven-men teams.
