/ y fey CALVIN PORTER ¥> * Coaches of the East Central foot ball conference met at Rusty’s Grill Monday night and gave fin ad approval to. next fall’s schedule. ‘ Since the schedule already had Wen arranged, the approval was merely a formality. At the meeting, Selma made a bid to re-enter the loop, but mem bers turned thumbs down on the request, since Richlands has been brought in as a replacement. Sel ma was in the conference last fall, but dropped but with intentions of joining another loop. Apparently their plans did not materialize, w If the East Central conference would expand to include other sports as well as football, all mem bers could reap an advantage..

THEY'RE COMPLETELY DEPENDABLE AND YOU GET FAST SERVICE TOOi , GLENN MARTIN J^t WRUO on THE CORNER L — MT-OLIVE. N C. ence have basketball and baseball obligations in another loop. For basketball purposes this is not to their advantage. Most of the schools played by i the East Central conference l members in basketball have no football program, thus while the member schools have only a few days or a week or two of prac tice at most before going into their cage schedule, schools they i are playing have had months of pre-season training. Should the East Central confer ence see its way clear to expand to include basketball and baseball, the loop cage season could open after Christmas with each team having a fair share of practice. However, if a team wanted to it could book games with non-confer ence foes before the Yuletide sea son. By starting after Christmas, the conference could complete its schedule by the time baseball rolls around. Not only would this put the schools on a more equal basis, but would also encourage better gate attendance. Swinging from football and bas ketball and getting on to the sport at hand—baseball, Mount Olive has scheduled two inter-squad games, but both days were rained out. Seniors at Calypso high school left for Washington, D. C., Wed nesday afternoon, and their trip is being made more enjoyable be cause their baseball team shut out Wallace 2-0 in the season’s opener Tuesday. No games are on tap while the seniors are away. Mount Olive seniors leave for the nation’s capital next month, and the Panthers won’t be playing any games during the time the grads-elect are sight-seeing. Principal J. A. Batson of Mount Olivo schools, wrote to confer ence members asking for a re port to either confirm or deny rumors which have been circulat ing. These rumors said the con ference is trying to blackball Mount Olive and in an effort to I do this wouldn't scehdule any baseball games for its members. J. L.

On its own in booking games this spring, Mount Olive has six games scheduled to date, but other games are pending as McClenny hopes to have a schedule calling for 12 games this season. Besides Faison, Mount Olive is set to meet Beula ville, Warsaw, Calypso, and Eu reka.

McClenny said the squad had not been cut, but expects to select a varsity next week. The coach has admitted he likes the Panthers’ chances if his mound staff can hold up.

Organization, and R. L. McDonald of Grantham, replied, confirming only one rumof, that no baseball schedules will be released by the conference this season. Why the change in policy? They didn’t say. One other member of the con ference also must be tired of the bickering that has taken place in the loop for the past year or two and is pulling out. The name of the school withdrawing from the con ference was not disclosed. Mount Olive still has a couple of pals in the conference. Eureka and Fremont approached and scheduled games with the local school. RENEW YOUR SUBSCRIPTION Come Drive NUMBER ONEin Power! f "tf. p;r: /.**••*«!jjf ; T*' Cem* drive NUMMK ONI In power I.. .
