THS Set For Brevard In 'Make-Or-Break' Game Friday Night ^ ^ - ?

Greeneville, Tenn., and Marshall. Jthough Greeneville probably has the strongest squad of Brevard may prove harder to beat than any other?from a ical standpoint.

Waynesville Mountaineers ought to be the hottest thing since the Battle of Bull Run. Boh of the Blue Ridge power houses have several compelling reasons why they'd like to win this "grudge battle". But. first, let's look at the \isitors' side of the question. To start w ith, the Blue Devils ^ lost in an upset last week to Mar shall and that alone is enough to PU( them in a determined frame of mind. * More important, however, is the j desire to gain revenge for the 20 19 loss last yea alter Brevard was j leading at the half 13-0. Also on the Devils' list of griev- ' ances against the Mountaineers is ,. .... ..,-1 t .1-- ' v,..v mii i mi uit-i iium iiic i sea son when the Blue and White came over Pisgah with a spotless record and a stranglehold on the Blue1 Ridge Conference title. The boys from Brevard did go on to take I the crown, but they were ambush-i ed by the Highlanders that night.' 18-6. They still haven't forgiven) Wavnesville for that one. Oh the Mountaineers side of the I question their incentive is an ob vious one; to atone at least partial- ' ly lor t heir poor performance on j the 8th in losing 37-7 to Bender-1 sonville. Waynesville doesn't lose many games even by close scores and it's almost rare for them to be anni hilated by a Blue Ridge Confer ence outfit. So the Gold and Black can be counted on for a strong comeback effort. One thing that shouldn't trouble Coaches Weafherby and Jajnes is overeonfidcncc. Alter the late un pleasantness with the Bearcats, all the Mountaineers have come to realize the facts of life. Brevard did whin Hendersonville and would rule as strong favorites, i if judeed on that basis. But the! Mountaineers beat Canton, who in I turn whipped the Devils, so the I whole situation is thore confused than somewhat. From down in Transylvania County, rumors of injuries to Brev ard griddors have come floating over the mountains. There may be j some facts involved or they may! be just attempts to stir up some j complacency in I he local camp. Equally as important in the Blue Ridge Conference picture is an other big clash tonight at Canton between the Black Bears and the lb ndersonville Bearcats, both of whom have lost only one confer ence game and are still struggling ifjp*. a ins t Call to the Mrs Styles of Autnmn 3UROY ARDINE M / SIZES W UP SHIRTS and $2-98 > lURNERS STORE ?vt jg MOUNTAINEER BACKS who will be counted on to help stem the onslaught of the Itrevard Blur Devils tomorrow night are (left to right) Freddy Muse, Juhnnv l.duardv Paul lliehtnuer, Dwain Kobinson, and N'eal Palmer.

Waynesville Jayvees Beat Demons, 13-7 Waynesville's junior varsity won I its second game of the season here Tuesday night by turning back Bethel's Little Demons, 13-7, with a third-period touchdown that broke a 7-7 tie. Carroll Hooper put Waynesville in front 7-0 in the first period with a 20-yard pass to Charles Robinson. But Bethel came back in the sec ond quarter with a touchdown pass which covered 45 yards?from Roy Browning to Neal Kelly. The Little Mountaineers wrap ped up the game in the third j period on a 75-yard advance with J Neal Palmer piunging over from the one. ' In their other start this season, the Jayvees pounded Henderson-1 ] ville. 33-tl. < Next Tuesday night Coach Bill ] t Swift's boys will journey to Can-1 < ton to meet the Bearcubs and then j ] will return the following Tuesday j night to meet the same squad ( here. i Gra-Y Bears Defeat Baby Mountaineers | The Canton Gra-Y Bears defeat-! ed the Waynesville Baby Mountain eers at Canton last night, 13-7 Details of the gante were not im mediately available since The Mountaineer was unable to contact either the Canton or Waynesville coaches. An account of the scoring I will be carried in a later issue. I Informants here said that the j Baby Mountaineers entered the ' game after only four practice ses ' sions against the squad that usual | ly reigns as state champion in the I midget foothall field.
