Bucks Licking 71st Wounds, Getting Ready For Richmond > In addition to not playing well Friday night, the Hoke High Bucks played poorly against a superior team. All that added up to a long evening for the home team, and a 34-8 loss to the 71st Falcons. "If we don't rise above what we did Friday night, it's going to be a long season," Buck Head Coach Tom Jones said. The Bucks face Richmond Coun ty this Friday in Rockingham. Richmond lost a squeaker to Scotland County last Friday 21-20. The Scots are expected to be one of the toughest teams the Hoke High Bucks will face this year. "It's hard to say who's going to be the toughest," Jones said. "All I know is that the road is not going to get any smoother," he added. The 71st Falcons may not be the best team the Bucks will face all year, but Jones feels that they had superior players at 15 of the 22 positions on the field Friday night. Two of the Falcons, tailback Gregg Williams and flanker Tim Medley, are ranked in the top 50 college prospects out of about 10.000 ball players in the state, and Jones said they lived up to their reputation Friday night. Williams had no problems with the Buck defense, ripping off 214 yards and three touchdowns on 20 carries. The Falcons gained 336 yards for the evening. All but 100 yards of the net yardage was on the ground. The Falcons first score came on a pass to Medley that covered 31 yards. The Bucks lone score came late in the fourth quarter on a short pass from quarterback John Mc Duffie to Gary Stephens after a 59-yard scoring drive. Solid performances were again turned by McDufTie, who was 4 for 10 in passing, for 54 yards and a touchdown, and by Calvin Dixon, who> rushed for 54 yards on 16 attempts against a tough Falcon defense. Buck coaches will be again working this week on fundamentals in preparation for Richmond, Jones said. "We'll just keep working on what we know we can do best," the coach said. "There is nothing else we can do. We don't have magic wands or anybody we can call up on op tions," he added. "We've got good folks. We're going to keep trying," Jones said. Flora Macdonald Games Get Underway October 2-3 The sixth annual Flora Mac donald Highland Games, sche duled for Saturday and Sunday. Oct. 2-3. will feature nearly 175 uniformed participants in the Re volutionary War battle reenact ments each day. Along with the recreated battles of McPhauls Mill and Raft Swamp, there will be handcraft demonstra tion and sales and original High land athletic competition. "The battle reenactments have long been our favorite crowd pleaser," said spokesman Tommy Amnions. "We amicipate our largest crowds around 5 p.m. on Saturday and 2:30 p.m. on Sun day...the times of the battle." Using black powder weapons and realistic uniforms and equip ment. the participants will demon strate their battle amidst the sounds of bagpipes and bugles along with muzzle-loaders and cannon. Throughout the day on Saturday and from 1 p.m to 5 p.m. on Sunday, there will be individual competition in highland dancing, bagpipes and drums. Also, local craftsmen will show their wares all day. The complete schedule is as follows: Saturday 9 a.m. Individual competition and clan information 11 a.m. Opening ceremony 11:30 a.m. Highland Athletics Hunting/Fishing Passbook License Available Next July Sportsmen will have the op portunity to purchase new "pass btxik" type hunting and fishing licenses in the future, reports the N.C. Wildlife Resources Com mission. The new passbook license will replace existing licenses on July 1. 1983 when the license years for hunting, fishing and trapping are consolidated to run from July 1 through June 30. "Some confusion exists over the new passbook format for hunting a and fishing licenses," said Richard B. Hamilton, assistant executive director of the N.C. Wildlife He sources Commission. "The new passbook license will be more convenient for the public. Sports men will be issued a single pass book when they buy their license each year, and pictorial or valida tion stamps will be affixed to the passbook to designate the various types of hunting and fishing privi leges purchased. For example, an angler may buy a basic fishing license and trout license, and validation stamps for these two activities would be affixed to the passbook. Full-sized, limited edition art prints of the annual sportsman license, which will be a pictorial stamp depicting an out door sporting scene, will also be sold to increase revenues." In addition to the convenience of the new licenses, the passbook format will reduce printing and other administrative costs for li censes by about S20.000 annually. "This money can better be used for projects in the field which directly benefit fish and wildlife," concluded Hamilton. The first radio broadcasts of the World Series were transmitted on Oct. 5, 1921.
