r PAGE SIX(First Stction) THE WAYNES VILLE MOUNTAINEER FRIDAY, Moenfta: rysoo City Here iioma 0 Canton Has Tough Foe Tonight In Reidsville Black Bears Face Class B Champs For Past Two Years In 11th Game One of the toughest opponents on their schedule, Reidsville, will oppose the Black Bears from Can ton tonight as Coach C. C. Poin dexter's squad leaves the moun tains to take on their 11th football rival of the year. The Bears will get a different version of the game Saturday, when they sit in the stands at Chape Hill to watch the Wake Forest Carolina game. Canton fans have made this extra trip possible in ap preciation for the team's fine play ing this year. Reidsville lias been Class D high school champion for the past two seasons and includes many Class A teams on their schedule. The Reidsville team this year, however, has not been as strong as in the past with few victories for the 194( record. This will place Canton as favorites to win if the Bears perform al their bt'st. Next week-end the Black Hears play a return panic at Asheville School whom they defeated 7 to 0 earlier and will conclude their season Thanksgiving Day when VVaynosville rocs to Canton.

Curiously, Waynesville's extra points match evenly the 31 points scored on them by their opponents . . . For further statistics, the Mountaineers have attempted 134 passes and completed 64 of them an average of 48 per cent which some would say is not bad. rTlTTT T .

Some of; the same group of hunters brought, in another a couple of davs hark I in the Ground Hog or Skiffy Creek section. Playing their last home game of the season, the Mountaineers un defeated in nine games meet Swain high of Bryson City on the local gridiron tonight with the kickoff set for 7:45 o'clock. Alhough the visitors do not have too imoressive a record. Coach E. Weatherby has been warning his squad that a letdown tonieht could allow the game to get out of hand. Three varsity backfield men missed practice Wednesday due to injuries, which will weaken the team in facing their next-to-last hurdle in the way of a perfect season. Ervin Shook is reported recover ing as well as could be expected at the Haywood County hospital, but is definitely out for the next two games. Lawrence Robinson was kept from the practice field with a cold, and James Brackett was on the sideline with an infect ed jaw, which may keep him out of the lineup tonight. Although C o a c h Weatherby would not name a probable start ing lineup, it appeared likely that the fast-stepping Cyril Minett would be in at fullback, while Rob inson would take over the signal calling job. Barring further injur ies, other possible starters are Mil ner and Grahl at wingbaek, Messer and Morrison, ends; Medford and Caldwell, tackles: Phillips and Wil son guards; and Ferguson at Cen ter. Announced by Head Coach Jos eph Sursavage as the probable starters for Bryson City are Sher rill and E. Watson at end; Alston 3nd Cole at tackle; Cope and Woody at guard; Stevenson, center; G. D. Clark, quarterback; Morrow and W. Watson halfbacks, and Per cival Estes, team captain, at full back. Riggest man on the Swain high lineup is Woody, the 255-pound guard. Estes weighs in at 167, and the other starters run between 141 and 155 pounds. Bryson City has tied three teams so far this year, Franklin, Sylva and Hayesville, has beaten Bakers ville 27 to 6, and lost to Robins ville, Franklin and Murphy. Next week-end will be open on the Waynesville schedule, with the final game to be Thanksgiving Day at Canton.

Permis sion has been secured to use the Armory indoor court, and other work-outs re being held on the outdoor i ourt behind the rectory. Father Tate has sent invitations to play several teams.
