Game, Promises To Be
Close, Tough Contest
Hie Davie Rebels open their
borne slate Friday night at 8
against a tough North Stanly
team.
North Stanly, like Davie lost
its opener to Albemarle by a
two-touchdown margin, but
returned last week to slaughter
North Iredell 58-0.
Coach Jim Conger, while not
happy with the Rebels opening
loss, nevertheless found en
couragement in the way the
team is capable of playing.
"You can quote me on this,"
said Conger. "Albemarle isn't
that much better than we are.
We fumbled the ball eight or
10 times, but what really disap
pointed me was the defense.
We didn't do enough hitting."
Part of the loss could be
attributed to opening game Jit
ters. "They caught us with our
pants down in the defensive
backfield a couple of times,"
said Conger, who indicated the
team will spend plenty of time
on correcting defensive
mistakes, ball handling techni
que and just plain hard-hitting
football in practice session this
week.
"I was worried about our of
fense before the game," Conger
said. "Actually we moved the
ball very well at times and
except for fumbles could have
scored at least two more
touchdowns. But the defense
was a disappointment."
Conger singled out tackle Joe
Towell for an excellent game.
The new coach said of Towell:
"He's tough. In fact he's about
as good a high school lineman
as I've seen."
Meanwhile, the offense show
ed flashes of brilliance but, as
Coach Conger said, the
brilliance was overshadowed on
the scoreboard by costly
mistakes such as fumbles and
bombs over the secondary.
Hubert West, conference 100-
yard dash champion, scored
both Davie TDs. One came on
a 47-yard run and the other
on a 26-yard pass from Ronnie
Shoaf. West was playing his
first football game and, despite
a couple of mistakes to be ex
pected from a rookie, indicated
that he'll be tougher and
tougher to handle as he gains
experience.
North Stanly, 31-18 loser to
Albemarle in its opener, racked
up 444 yards rushiig and 82
yard through the air in its romp
over North Stanly. Roger
Huneyeutt and Horace
Chambers scored twice foi the
Comets. The winners held Na f h
Iredell to minus 17 yards on
the ground and to four yards
in the air.

HELICOPTER USED TO
INSTALL TRUSSES
Many people are wondering
just what the helicopter was
doing at Frwin Mills last Satur
day. It was flown in from
Roanoke, Virginia to move
two trusses from the field near
the Waste Treatment Plant a
cross ths river to the back of
the plant. The trusses were
being installed for the purpose
of supporting the materials
handling ducts that move fi
bers such as cotton and syn
thetic materials from the
Opening Room to the Picker
Room.
