The Red Raiders are unde feated in their first aix games to date. Vietuiiuf fcy Larry McComb To Seven Lost Coaches I don't consider myself to be an old man yet, but I can remember when high school football players were se lected to all-conference teams on the basis of their abil ity and superiority over other players in the conference. After taking a sickening look at the even sicker Coastal All-Conference team selected by coaches last Monday, I can't help but think that system must no longer be in use. ? Instead, it looks like the coach that has the most friends in the conference is the one that will get the most boys on the select eleven. The reason I say this is that a boy who is head and shoulders above anything in the conference, did not even make the first team. To coaches Barnes, Weatherington, Lee, Tripp, Moye, Jones and Becton: in case you need a hint as to the player I'm referring to, he is the Beaufort Seadog wear ing jersey number 13 who was running all over your teams this year. His name is Ernest House but he's better known around here as Powerhouse. Robersonville should be better acquainted with him than any other team in the conference. All he did against this fourth place club was carry the ball 17 times for a total of 98 yards and two touchdowns. That averages out to about 5.7 yards per carry. Did the all-conference fullback hurt the Rams as much? Of yoWjContentnea. Think back a few weeks to the afoH^jgj^nfd|^iea game and you should be able to 1 the player who carried the ball six times for 64 yards against your club. To help refresh your memory, he also scored two touchdowns and five extra points against you. Or how about you, Ayden? Were you too confused trying to figure a way to hold Beaufort under 100 points to notice No. 13 out on the field? Statistics show that the boy who, more than anyone else, deserves the honor of all-conference fullback ran over, around and through your team for an average of 5.6 yards. I venture to say that your boy. Mills, couldn't hold a candle to this fig ure. At least he didn't against Beaufort. How about Havelock? Your boy Seaton who was picked over House on the first team can fill you in on what you evidently doji't know about the boy. Against you, Ernie was given the job of being personally re sponsible for Seaton. After the game was over, your boy had been held to ? total of only 46 yards rushing and an average of three yards per carry. House? He averaged six yards per carry against you. House was just as destructive against the rest as he was against the teams above. Coaches outside the Coastal conference who know and appreciate good football, have been high in their praises of House all year. For instance, Norman Clark of the Morehead City Eagles termed House the best back his team faced this year. That's covering quite a bit of ter ritory when you consider the fact that the Eagles faced such teams as New Bern and Wallace-Rose Hill. Oh yea, Clark's team also played the Havelock squad. So in leaving House off the All-Conference team, it's ironic to note that all that is hurt here is the pride of a football-spirited town and school. I'll lay odds that in the end, the other Coastal conference teams will get hurt the most because, you see. House will be back next year to wreck those teams even more. That's 30 for now.

One of David's many fine nights came in the important clash between Beaufort and FarmviUe. In this game, David scored one touchdown on a pass from Butch, added another on a spectacular 80 vard kickoff return.
