Jayvees Lose, 30-14
The Hoke High Jayvee team
dropped their first game of the
season to the hands of the Sanford
Jayvees last Thursday by a score of
30-14.
Sanford took the opening kickoff
and ran it back for the first
touchdown of the game. The two
point conversion was good and the
score was 8-0 early in the first
quarter.
Hoke drove to score in 11 plays
and tied the score after a two point
conversion.
Sanford took the kickoff and
marched to their second tally in ten
plays and the quarter ended with
Sanford ahead 16-8.
Hoke and Sanford exchanged
scores in the second period and the
young Jackets took a 24-14 lead to
the locker room at the half.
A Sanford score in the third
quarter made it 30-14 and the
defense for both teams dominated
the rest of the game.
Hoke's scoring came on a one yard
quarterback sneak by David McNeill
and a McNeill pass to Larry Purcell.
"The team played a fair game,"
said coach Howard Smith.
He cited the good play of Ronald
Brunson, Dennis McGregor. Leonard
Everette.and Tony Barnes.
The Jayvees play Richmond
County tonight (Thursday) here and
hope to improve on their 2-1 record.

It just wasn't meant to be for the
Bucks to beat Sanford Central Friday
night as die Sanford Yellow Jackets
Hew past the Bucks with a score of
47-12. The Yellow Jackets must have
come intending to leave a lasting
impression, after they had left, with
us and with a win over the Varsity
Bucks of a decisive 47-12, I'm sure it
will be a long time before anyone
forgets them, (or can!). Sanford had
plenty of support with several
hundred fans, their pep club, and
marching band on hand to cheer
them on. Even with the great
football team we have, with plenty
of great playing from all and support
from hundreds of Buck Boosters, the
Bucks were simply unable to
overtake the powerful Yellow
Jackets. In the third quarter, with
the score 34-0, the Bucks made their
first touchdown, followed by two
more touchdowns by the Yellow
Jackets, and finally the Bucks
making one more toudidown with
one second remaining in the
ballgame. Hie Varsity Bucks are now
2-2 overall and 0-1 in conference
play. The Bucks will be away this
Friday. October 3, playing
Richmond County in another
conference game. Go next Friday
and give them your support!
The Hoke High Band did another
outstanding halftime show Friday
night, under the direction of Jimmy
James. The Sanford Central Band put
on a fine performance also, doing the
first of the two halftime shows. The
Hoke High Band will travel tp
Richmond County for the next
game, to perform, and has been
rehearsing and practicing all this
week in preparing for their first away
performance in three years. The band
will go to other away games during
the football season also, so those
who go to the away games will be
able to see the same great
performances they always see at
home.
The Library Club met this week
under the advisement of the new
librarian, Mrs. Currie, to discuss this
year's club plans for 1975-1976 and
when to elect officers.
The Key Club finished its
initiations last week (and some of the
new members as well, from the looks
of them), and now the old members
of the National Honor Society are
planning their own initiations on
Thursday, October 2, of the new
members. Besides the usual mop,
bucket, and combat boots, new
members will dress up in characters
ranging from Cinderella to
Frankenstein, and from Cher to
Humpty Dumpty. For the old
members, it will be a fun day 1 know,
for the new members it will be very
embarrassing (so I'm not sure what
kind it will be for them).
Support the Bucks!
