7172 bt'ORia PAGE Of Tile WayneSVlIIe KlountsInSr Thursday Afternoon, November 9, 1930 Bears May Have Rough Going In Ninth Test Canton High School's Mack Bears may have "their-, roughest struggle to keen their slate ' clean1 oil Friday niylit than they have J had all season outside the Waynes-j ville contest. They face the Marion Kippers, j battered from ruined contests every weekend since the season' opened,, but - thoroughly seasoned! by the same tough schools. The contest, Number nine on the ' Canton schedule, is scheduled for the Canton High School stadium. The Rippers, who haven't a soft spot on their 1950 schedule- went out of their way to get in some overtime work this week at the same time. Friday's clash will be the third in seven nights for Coach Art Ditt's single wingers. On Friday night, they scared the daylights out of Lenoir's Western AA ltaders before bowing to a touchdown, two minutes before the game ended. The f.iial: 13-G. Only three nights after playing I're.'nell Mull's bruisers practical ly to a standstill, they collided with "the Asheville - Hiltmore J;yVees, and beat thrm. 12-6. These two top-flight perform ances in the since of four nights constitute quite a comeback for a team that had been smothered 52- 0. only the week before by power ful Krwin, Tennessee. A large delegation from the Waynesville High School squad will be among the spectators at Canton Friday night, for the ' Mountaineers play both these teams in their windup of the season. Minion's offensive this season, crippled by the loss of Wingback Gilbert I'ackett, now performing for Western Carolina, and other people, like llainmett, the fast lit tle fullback of 1949, is powered by Hay Hauling and Howard I.edbet ter. Both were largely responsible for the Kippers' tremendous show ing in their last two games. Canton will be favored to make it nine straight and slay undefeat ed In this, nun-conference contest. But it piohably will be a dog fight, unless the Kippers suffer a let-down from their two close ones of la' t w.eki ml and this week. Gra-Y Bears To Meet U.S. Champions At Canton Champion YMCA's Midget touch down tycoons will tackle the top of the class Saturday night in their final home game of the season. Their objective is to wind up a successful season with a victory gver the defending national cham pions. , Their opponents are the Knox ville Juniors, the boys Who captur ed the 1949 national title and haven't been licked in two seasons. Jack Justice's mighty moppets have dropped only two contests in ten this campaign, and have won eight, Their only losses were both o the JMbeville School Juniors. AUif, (their regular season fin ale,', the Gra-Y Bears of Canton won't hang up their uniform's, how ever. They'll start preparing for their bowl game November 18 at Spar tanburg, S. C, against the midget football chamos of South Carolina. The Palmetto state title is yet to be decided. Wildlife Club Turkey Shoot The Haywood County Wildlife Club will hold a two-day turkey shoot next week at Camp Hope Hope near Cruso. 'Jack Justice of Canton, who is organizing the event for the club, said the dates will be Wednesday arid Saturday November 18). The shooting will start at 11 a m and keep going until dark on tach - --ft5; i fannigans Bailie Ganlon Bear Cubs To 7-7 Headloch Waynesville Hieh School's Yan nigans, their offensive stopped cold most of the time, played the breaks and threw up a tough de fense to stop the Canton JayVee winning streak with a 7-7 deadlock here Monday night. It was the first game in six this season that the Bear Cubs had failed to win, and the first in three that the Yannigans had fail ed to lose. The Yannigans, after early trou ble defensively, pulled themselves together to bottle up the Cubs' fancy running-passing combination of Charlie Carpenter and Chili liuinette. In fact, it was Pate, an end, who was making most of the Canton yardage in the later stages of the gam for Canton. The Yannigans had the satisfac tion of stopping and almost beat ing the same club that had pin ned a 25-7 pasting on them at Canton two weeks before. Ironically,' it was the hard-rushing Canton line that brought the tie. With Canton holding a 7-0 lead going into the third period, James Robert Moore stepDed back to punt on fourth down from the Wavnes ville 43. . The ball glanced off the shoulder of a rushing Canton lineman, and bounded down beyond mid-field. End Ted Owen picked up the loose ball and sprinted 37 yards to the end zone. Fullback Edwin Grasty battered his way through the line for the point that tied the game. The Cubs had driven 80 yards, with the aid of a fourth-down per sonal foul penalty, to a touchdown shortly after Die opening kickoff. The drive ended when Carpenter fired a pass from the Waynesville Top Clubs Win In Ladies' Loop The top three clubs in the Waynesville Women's Bowling League scored shutouts over the second division teams In this week's matches at the Waynesville fNowrrrrg Center. 1 First-place Vvellco No. 2 defeat ed Farm Bureau Mutual Insurance, 2nd place Howell Motor overcame A.

IS 20 to Burnette who had sprinted wide to his rieht to take it and run over untouched. The same passing combination clicked for the extra point. The Yannigan point and touch down pnded the scoring but not the thrills. Burnette took the kickoff that followed the touchdown and sprint ed 52 yards on a beautiful broken field run behind neat blocking be fore he was nailed on the Yanni gan 44. But the Cubs could get no fur ther, cither by ground and air. On fourth down. Manual Hooper started the excitement again when he charged in and blocked Bur nette's punt. Tackle Danny McClure, whose play through the whole game was marked by his fearless joy for go ing after ball carriers, missed by inches becoming a hero. Leading the charge for the bounding ball, he made a grab for it on the run on the Canton 30. And missed. It would have been the winning touchdown. The Yannigans fell on it, but ?ouId get nowhere against the ;tout Cub defense, and Moore ticked into the end zone. McClure more than made up for missing the ball, however, late in he final period when he forestall ed a Canton touchdown. The Cubs had driven all the way 'o the Wavnesville 20 after launch ing a drive on the Waynesville 43 when Danny charged in 'and dived ror Burnette's ankles, just as the shifty little back was heading around right end into the clear. He didn't stop him, but slowed him down enough for the lineback ers to catch up with him at the line of scrimmage. Then on the next play, he charg ed in to recover a Canton fumble on the 18 and ended the threat. On the last play of the game, the Cubs' fine passing attack back fired, almost disastrously. Burnette had intercepted a pass on the Canton 47, On the next play, as the clock showed 27 seconds to go, he fired a long, high one to a receiver on the sidelines at the Yannigan 30. Halfback Ted Noland, racing in fast, leaped high in front of the Cub, snatched the ball, and took off. He' nned 54 yards before he' was stopped by Burnette at the Canton 14. ' The game ended before the Yannigans could try another play. After their first touchdown, the Cubs threatened again. But the little Mountaineers stop ped one drive on their ten, and another on their 19 just before the first half ended. Early in the fourth, the Cubs blocked a Moore punt and recov ered on the Waynesville 40. An eight-yard gain and a 15 yard penalty that went with the play sent "the Cubs down to the 17. But Guard Ray Buchanan, an other of Waynesville's defensive stars of the evening, pounced on a fumble on the Yannigan 15. A few plays later, Moore's punt went to the Waynesville 43, and the Cubs started the march that was stopped by McClure "s recov ery. When Moore's long pass was in tercepted by Burnette on the next play, it looked as though the Cubs were about to start off for the races again. But Noland's brilliant intercep tion and run stopped this final threat. Standouts in the Mountaineer line were, besides those named; Bobby Kuykendall, Wayne Kelly, and Bony Davis.

Sutton's Punting Averages 49.7 Yards For 8 Games Waynesville High School's foot ball fan are thinking about claim ing a state (at least) punting record for End Bill Sutton. The 195-pound senior flankman boosted his average for eight games this season to 49.7 yards per punt last Saturday night. In that game, against Asheville School, ills three boots travelled an average 63 yards each. Going into that game, his 44.1 yard average ..was a probable high for state scholastic gridders for this season. His three long ones and James Fugate's 45-yard kick on the fourth and last of the Mountaineer punts gave the team a punting average of 58.3 forrh jriuiie. ' - - . That Is probably a record team average for a single game. But It would be difficult to tell, since the available records do not mention high school punting. Bill's season average would have been considerably higher but .for two off nights when he had no better than 29 yards and a fraction. His first performance that fell below par was the 29 yards he averaged 'for the Canton game. A blocked punt did the damage there. In the Christ School game, his average hit the same level when he angled his kicks for the side lines and had one blocked. "I was trying for out-of-bounds kicks against Christ School," he explained. "But in the Canton game, I was just plain off," Sutton's average for his three seasons of iigh school ball is close to the 50-yard-per-punt mark. After sittin out the season with a broken collar bone his freshman year, he came back for a 49-yard average as a sophomore, Last season, when his family was living in Florida, he wound un the season with a 50-yard average for the ten games he Dlaved for Bradenton alternately as an end, quarterbacks and halfback. This booting heloed land him a berth on the All-South Florida squad at the end of the season. He got off his longest boot of his career under playing condi tions while working for Braden ton. In the contest with Sarasota, he sent the ball 83 yards from the line of scrimmage. "That wasn't the longest punt of the game, though," he admitted. "Bob Peet, a Sarasota back, punt ed one 89 yards." His 63-yard average for the Asheville School game wasn't his best of this season. In the opener against Sylva, Ws boots sailed an average 66.6 yards sidlojaourteirs fir (0ai3i'y The Mail For The seven opponents (Staff Photo). Fugate and To Pick All-State Carleton Weatherby, veteran head football coach of the Way nesville High School Mountain eers, has been named to a board of coaches to help select the l"9r0 North Carolina all-state high school honor team. His appoint ment was announced bv the Charlotte Observer sports de partment in Wednesday's edition. The Mountaineer coach will nominate players from the west ern section. He is one of 10 coaches of the Class AAA and AA schools who make up the All State Board. each. The 74-yard punt against Ashe ville School was his best of the current season. His next best was - the 73-yard kick he got off against Sylva. The long One against Asheville couldn't have been more effective, either. After sailing 63 yards through the air, it bounced and rolled dead on the Asheville one-yard line. To give himself plenty of time to get it off, he had dropped back ten yards from the line of scrim mage. Officially, the length of the punt is measured only from the line of scrimmage to the point where the ball is dead. His first of the game sailed 55 yards, his longest came next, and his third and final sailed 60 yards, going out of bounds on the Ashe ville 10-yard line. He has two more games of punt ing before winding up his career as a Waynesville gridder. And unless his kicking collapses completely his punting will stand as a modern high school record, Boots w mmimmmmmmmmwmmmmmmmwmmmmmmmwmn I "III Depi Mountaineers Moss graduate next June.
