Underwood's of Waynesville fell, 78-45, Thursday night under a mos quito bomber raid from Asheville. The Asheville Waste Paper Bombers proved in the game for the benefit of the Haywood County March of Dimes Drive that there's still a lot of place left for good. short men in this hey day of the athletic bean pole. They made up for their lack of height in burning speed, deadly ac curacy, and control of both back boards through the whole game. It must be said, however, that the Underwoods, using a revamped lineup, had three'players who had only a lew minutes before seen ac tion in the preliminary between the Waynesville Junior Chamber of Commerce' and the Waynesville Lions Club. Boyd Owen, ex-All Southern per former from Wake Forest, Joe Cline, and Bobby Plott had played for one side or the other in the opener before taking their places in the Underwood s lineup. However, the Underwood's were facing one of the top clubs of the Western North Carolina Industrial League. The Bombers had handed the powerful Fullam's of Canton a 11-point trimming only a few days before. ; ' The Underwoods made their most serious threat in the second period when they broke loose for 18 points to narrow the gap to 31 21, while holding the jet-propelled Bombers to a single point. The rally came after a dismal opening frame in which the Bomb ers racked up 20 points while hold, ing the locals to three. The visitors resumed the pres sure alter intermission, holding the locals to one point while con necting for 11 themselves to work but a 50-32 advantage by the end Of the third period. They stepped up the pace in the final period with an attack that gave them 28 points over the tiring Underwoods and wrapped up the ball game. Estierwalt, Ashcville's sharp shooting center, collected high- scoring honors with his 20-point contribution, - whil e - Center . .Max Rogers topped the losers -with II. . The Lions, with Owen leading the way, took the abbreviated pre liminary contest, 20-13. Doe scored 12 points for Individual honors while Cline led the losers with five points. In the game of five-minute jjeri ods, the Lions took an 8-1 lead by the end of the first and held a 10- 5 advantage at intermission. They improved this to 18-7 in the third period and that was good enough to stand off a belated Jay Cee rally though they could collect only two points. v ; A hearty-full house saw the game at the Waynesville High School gym.
