Boys Canton's Black Bears, with Cen ter Johnny Phillips good for IS points, edged Asheville School's Blues, 62-40, Saturday afternoon in their Blue Ridge Conference en gagement. It was the Bears' second Confer ence victory in two consecutive days. The night before they had collected a 2-0 forfeit victory from Hendersonville's powerful Bearcats In the Canton court. It ; also gave the Bears a clean sweep of their annual series with the Blues. For the Asheville boys, also, It was only their second loss of the season. Canton is the only team they have failed to lick In ten games so far. Indulging in more statistics, the result gave the Bears a record of 15 victories against only two losses in the cage wars this season. This time the Bears had a some what easier time with the Blues than they did in their first meet ing when they had to work over time fora 50-41 victory on their own court.. '' In Saturday's return engagement, the Canton boys went to work to put it on ice early, taking the lead and keeping it through the rest of the game. By half-time they had accumulat ed a 13-point advantage which was good : enough to cushion them against the effects of a Valiant but late Blue rally, . Bill Johnson's 24 points for the Blues was the best individual scor ing performance of the contest, but the Bears' attack was too well-bal anced for any single star to offset.

Jack Justice this week reported steady progress in his campaign to raise travelling expenses for a Haywood County American Legion Junior baseball team. Firms, clubs, and Individuals, he declared, all have shown enthusi asm for the plan especially en thusiastic are the parents of the boys who will play, and, of course, the boys themselves. ; He launched the fund-raising Job last month in efforts to Insure at least $1,500 to pay the boys' way oh road trips. " The Ford Motor Company of Canton is supplying the uniforms. the Canton American Legion Post is obtaining the charter, and the Champion 'JMCA, of which Justice is athletic director, is furnlshnn most of the equpment. ; Justice, expressing confidence in his squad of boys from all sections of Haywood County and from Candler just across the county line, said one main reason he is looking forward to this campaign of Le gion ball lies in the opportunity the boys will have to see action against one of the finest big-league prospects North Carolina has pro. duced in years. - He's Billy Joe Davidson, six-foot 210-pound pitching ace of the Marion Legionnaires. Billy Joe, who's been sought by a stack of major league clubs but can't sign anything till he gradu ates .from school. Is currently student at uaK Kidge 1'rep near Greensboro. "I want to see how Jimmy Kuy kendall and the rest ofi our boys will do against him In, say, a three- game series. Jimmy, ; 16-year-old Waynesville High School football, baseball, and basketball player, wants to see that, too. The young southpaw was the ace of last year's Champion YMCA Junior pitching staff. Another dependable backbone of the staff Is Charlie Polndexter son of Canton High School Athletic director. Billy Joe and Jimmy both have another year of Legion baseball ahead of them. Justice makes few qualifications in his praise of the Waynesville southpaw's promise and present ability. Calling him the finest young prospect he's ever seen in Western North Carolina diamond circles, Jack says Jimmy doesn't have the speed that Billy Joe has (he's about 25 or 30 pounds lighter than the Marion star). But he believes Kuykendall has as much even more---on the ball than Davidson. "A year in Legion ball,"-he adds "will smooth out Jimmy's control. Then he'll, be ready for greater things. Justice already has a powerful squad of hitters, fielders, and pitch ers, most of them holdovers fromWard's last season's WNC Junior BaseballACL League's pennant-winning C.K!j LAST )'.? w v U?T.'tf' ft plon nine, other new additions Jack acquired since the season ended. However, his talent hunt actually is just beginning. Early In the spring, when the hickory starts knocking the horsehide on school diamonds and sand lots through out the county, he's planning to do lot of scouting to find boys with promise. "That doesnt mean I'm hunting only for young ball players with a lot of experience. I'm going to look over a lot of kids who have never played ball before, you can tell by the way they handle themselves In game whether they have any promise or not as potential ball players." ' Meanwhile, he again expressed hope that ( Jackson County also would organize a Legion team as the Sylva Herald suggested in fact, he hopes that at least five other western towns or counties will pick up the idea, too. ' "It would make an interesting little western league of our owni" he observed, then added thought fully; "And it would cut down on our travelling expenses, too; Right now, Marion's about ou nearest stop fer road trips. - "Sylva and Andrews for in stance, both are within an easy few hours' trip." In any event, the energetic young man over at Canton is optimistic that Haywood will have Legion balf this Season and a good Legion ball club. 49 issSssnim a Cm r "V t .V tf;,.-iy. .5-1:.. iM.t . iifeTOttyr2VV-'--?-,l tefflT 5ECMSTHAT ;MiSwte2?

The Canton girls edged the Hen- dersonville sextet 30-29 in the pre liminary, The argument leading to the forfeit developed in the final 30 seconds of play. With the score tied at 46-46, Hendersonville's Larry Kalan was awarded two free throvfcs for a per sonal foul. But at the same time, Hender sonville called its sixth time out of the game, and drew a technical foul for it. Kalan sank one of his free throws and Charlie Polndexter scored Can ton's charity toss, tying it up at 47-47. The argument arose over whether the game had ended when the fouls were called. The officials ruled it had and called for an overtime period. Then they awarded the game by the forfeit score of 2-0 to the Bears after the Hendersonvllle coach re fused to send his boys into the ex tra session.' The result gave the Canton boys an even split in their Blue Ridge Cdnference.series with Hendersoh- Vllle and their 14th victory in 16 games. , Miss McCrary took high scoring honors in the girls' game, collect lng 14 points, while Miss Smith of Hendersonvijle was yumierup with fFloyd King, with 12, and Johnny Phillips, with 11," led the Bears' irt the nightcap, while Kalan and Joe Gilreath, connected for 11 each, paced the Bearcats.
