Out Of Bounds By Mike Steadman With the football season coming to an end. it's time to seriously think about what was wrong with the Hoke High Buck's initial season in the Division IV, 4-A Conference. Could it be true that the Bucks were whipped from the start? A turnout of only 30 for football would have to be considered weak at best, since the enrollment at Hoke High at the beginning of the season was 1,510 people. Can anyone really expect a coach to take 30 players and beat teams with rosters totaling 60 or 70? That's like trying to put out the Chicago fire with a water pistol. Is it really school spirit or pride that is missing, or could there be personality conflicts among coaches and players? There could be a beer can of wealth in that question. Of course no one should hold a grudge against a man for simply doing someone else's job. The Bucks have gone through so many changes during the season personnel-wise, that at times it looked like a ten act play with a new cast in every scene, not to mention the script. We have to give the 1975 Bucks an "A" for effort this year because their competition has not been easy. They have played three of the top five teams in the state, but the "big" upset never came. They say you've got to have heart (which the Bucks have plenty of), but you've also got to have a strong bench, muscle, size, speed, and talent. Records show that the same players on this year's team went undefeated as a Freshman team while the J.V. that year went 7-3. Something happened. If a team can win all or most of it's games when they are in Jr. High, on the Freshman team, and playing Junior Varsity, what happens to them when they reach varsity status? H oke ighlights kf Bartf fills The 'hex' was on Bowman Wadesboro as the Varsity Bucks brought home a big decisive win to Hoke High as they defeated Bowman, 53-30, this past Halloween night. This win paves the way for another win also, on Friday, November 7, the last game of the football season. The Bucks, who are now 3-5-1 in season play, hope to better this record, so come out and support the Bucks on Friday! The Art Club is organizing for this year and held a meeting Thursday, October 30 lo elect officers and discuss upcoming plans and trips.

Plans are being made to attend the Art Museum in Raleigh, In December, visit the Busy Bee Ceramics in Fayetteville, and observe the art classes at Pembroke State University sometime in the near future. An Art Sliow and Contest is being planned for January 6, sponsored by the Raeford Women's Club. County winners will move on to regional, district, and state levels and compete for prizes and money. Mi. Jacobs feels he has some very fine art students and Art Club members this year, and has hopes of them competing highly in the contest with their talent. Good luck to everyone who will be competing! Everyone at Hoke High got an extended weekend as we got Halloween off to rest up and get ready to work on floats and plans all this week for Homecoming on November 7. Mrs. Delia McNeill is in charge of Homecoming activities this year also, and is as always working hard to decorate and get everything ready for the parade, game and dance on Friday. Each class has been working hard this week to complete their float, (hoping they've got the winning one), and by today (Thursday) they should be putting the final touches on them for the judging. The floats this year were all built with a bicentennial theme. Good Luck to everybody who worked so hard on the floats! The seniors nominated a number of girls for Homecoming Queen last week. From these ten semi-finalists were chosen. They are: Mary Allen, Linda Croft, Debbie Dees, Jan Dial. Madelyn Miller, Charlotta King, Irene Edens, Brenda Jones, Patricia Taylor and Dorcen Oxendine. The seniors then voted for three finalists, and they are: Irene Edens, Jan Dial, and Debbie Dees. The entire student body then voted for Homecoming Queen to be revealed and crowned at halftinte on Friday, November 7. Everyone's urged to join in the Homecoming festivities Friday night and see the parade down Main Street, Friday afternoon. Various clubs and their representatives will ride in the parade, along with the floats, class representatives and the Hoke High Marching Band.
