Seadog of the WHk You Can't Stop Him If You Can't Catch Him 'The Seadog of the week this week is one of the most electrifying players to ever wear the green and white uniform of t)ie Beaufort Sea dogs — David Jones. t David, a senior, is the type of player who is always in the game d^ing an outstanding job but you scmehow aren't aware that he’s playing until suddenly he reels off a long touchdown run or pass in terception that sets the opposition hack on its heels. Even then, he dots it in such a blinding flash of speed that if you aren’t looking right at him you’re apt to miss it. For the past two seasons David i has been the starting right end for head coach Curt Lancaster and the defending state champion Beaufort Seadogs . As an end last year he earned All-Conference honors and is off to a flying start toward a similar honor this year. A tribute to David’s great speed is the fact that he drew the Vote of every coach in the conferfence, except Lancaster, last year for All Conference halfback. None of the Bears Take 14-6 Decision Over Eagles in Tight Game Norman Clark Says Eagle' Mistakes Hurt Morehead By SHIRLEY FREDERICK After being fought to a standstill throughout the first half Friday night by the fited-up Morehead City Eagles, the New Bern Bears scored two last-half touchdowns, one on a pass of their own and one on a Morehead City pass, to gain a 14-6 victory Over the Eagles. Approximately 3,000 people jammed the New Bern sta dium to witness the game that had’ them cheering wildly from start to filiish as the two teams staged a fierce battle under the brilliant stadium lights. The Bears ■ received the opening kickoff and on the first series of downs looked like they might have things pretty much their own way as they rolled for considerable yardage through the Eagle defense. A double reverse, on the third play of the game, caught the Eagles off guard and netted 22 yards to move New Bern into Morehead City ter ritory. The Eagles dug in however, and held the Bears, forcing them to punt. This was the start of a kick ing game that was to see the throughout the first half. The Eagles quick-kicked three times on third down in the first half and each of the kicks put the Bears back deep in their own territory. The only real offensive threat ! by either team in the first two periods came just before the end of the half when'wingback Donald Davis hit the middle of the Eagle line and broke through for 35 yards down to the Morehead City 25-yard ! ilhe. The play didn’t do the Bears , much good though, as Davis fum bled when he was tackled and the ' Eagles recovered. The first scoring of the game came in the third quarter. The Bears took a Morehead City punt and began a march that carried them down to the Eagle 15-yard j lme. From here Cliffie Rowe, on a rollout pass, hit Davis with an I aerial that the fleet back carried over from the fine-yard line. The same combination was used on the etirs point try that was success ful and gave the Keats a 7-0 ad vantage. Trailing by one touchdown, the -a rnorinai eiakt WasAar lilflfo came roaring rigni vsck holding the upper hand conference coaches could imagine any player with David’s speed playing end, so assumed that he must have been a back. However, last Friday Vanceboro did get a look at halfback David Jones. David was moved to the backfield to replace the injured Ray Hassell and his performance is one that will not soon be forgot ten among Beaufort rooters. All he did was carry the ball 13 times, gain 299 yards from scrimmage and score five touchdowns. David simply got to the line of scrimmage and then outran the re maining Vanceboro defenders. Two of his touchdowns were 60-yard jaunts. For the night he averaged 33 yards every time he carried the ball. Quite a performance for a makeshift halfback. If you’re attending any of the Seadog games throughout the rest of the season, keep your eye on the pla)i4i££teat*Mi jersey No. 22. In fact, if you don’t keep your eye on him he’ll be just a green blur when he goes past you. I---———■— and bucked their way into New Bern territory. Quarterback Da vid O’Neal then called on a razzle dazzle play that clicked for the touchdown. On the play O’Neal hit Ludvik Pospisil with a pass and Pospisil handed off to lone some end Harold Whelaton who carried the ball over for the six points. A charge through the mid dle of the Bear line, on the extra point attempt, failed for the Eagles and New Bern still maintained an edge, 7-6. In the fourth quarter both teams were agaih unable to score until the waning seconds of the game when the Bears turned an inter cepted pass into a touchdown. Run ning from their OWn 15-yafd line, the Eagles attempted a pass from O’Neal to Whealton but the aerial was picked off by Davis who went in standing up for the touchdown. Davis then scored his 14th point of the night by crashing over fight guard for the extra point. When the Bears kicked off to the Eagles there was only 26 seconds remaining on the clock and this ran out before the Eagles could do anything. After the game Eagle coach Nor man Clark said that he Was Wrtl pleased with the defensive Itite play of his team but added that he was somewhat. disappointed at the showing of his backfield and the Eagles’ pass defense. “ft was a game that we could have won Just as easily as New Bern but our own mistakes hurt us more than anything,” said Clark. Fire alarm signals during Donna Sunday night in Morehead and Tuesday in Beaufort Were due to storm troubles. There were no Eagles Seek First Grid Win Against Wilmington The Morehead City Eagles will go out after their first football win of the-I960 season tonight when they take the field against the Wilmington B team in a grid contest set for 8 at Camp Glenn field. In two games to date the Eagles have yet to taste vic tory. In a driving rain in their season’s opener they were forced to settle for a scoreless tie' with the Richlands Wildcats and last week they were handed a 14-6 setback by the New Bern Bears. The Camp Glenn field received some damage from Hurricane Don na but repairs are expected to be completed in time for tonight’s game. George Stovall, general manager of Carolina Power and Light Co., said that a power crew would make the repairs today to the lights at the field. Even if repairs are made to the field and lights, there is still a possibility that the game would have to be postponed depending upon the whereabouts of Hurricane Ethel, which at press time yester day was threatening the Gulf coast. If Ethel blows into North Carolina, the game max have ,0 be called off until Monday night, according to Clark. Since the first of the week the Eagles have been drilling mainly on pass defense in preparing for Wilmington. Their pass defense was their biggest weakness at New Bern as the Bears scored their only offensive touchdown through the air. The Eagle line stopped the Bears on the ground and forced New Bern to take to the air in the last half. The squad, as a whole, came through the New Bern game with no serious injuries and will be in top physical shape for tonight’s clash. Lonesome end Harold Wheal ton received a gash on his left arm during the action but the cut was not a serious one. Clark has made only one change in his lineup for tonight’s game. Donna Carries Away Golf Shop at Morehead The golf shop at the Morehead City Golf and Country club was demolished by Donna. Merchandise in it was blown away and the hundreds of sets of golf clubs sat exposed to the wea ther. The club house was not dam aged. C. C. McCuiston, pro at the club, said the golf course itself has more damage than in any previous storm. National Guard Commended CivH Defense, law enforcement agencies and municipal authorities expressed appreciation this week to National Guardsmen who have been on duty since Donna struck. A skeleton force of 15 enlisted men will continue patrolling At lantic Beach until Monday morn ing, according to M/Sgt. Dennis Goodwih, unit administrator of the Morehead City National Guard unit. The force is under command of Sgt. Roger Hoggard, Morehead City. The Morehead City unit, under Capt. Norman Harris, was called out at 3:30 a.m. Monday by mayor George Dill. The unit set up auxili ary power at the armory at Camp Glenn and established radio con tact with upstate Guard units. From 3:30 Monday mOrfiing un til 5:30 p.m. Wednesday the More head City unit had 50 enlisted men and two officers on around-the clock duty in Morehead City, Beau fort and Atlantic Beach. Guards men from New Bern reported Monday afternoon and stayed here until they were relieved Wednes day night, the New Bern contin gent was comprised of 16 enlisted men and one officer. Storm Slows, Doesn't Stop Fishing Activities Despite havoc to Carteret fishing facilities by Hurricane Dohna, a few fishing reports have been re ceived. Bill Fox, reporting from the beach, said that Mr. Loveridge of Raleigh had a large drink cooler full of puppy drum and gray trout and that other fishermen go* speckled trout, spots, croakers, and sea mullets from the Salter Path surf. E. L. Riggs and Leroy Ricks of Raleigh, fishing for two hours at Emerald Me, had a five-gallon container full of speckled trout, croakers, pOtftpanO and blue fish. Alan m>jrted waa a large School at mullets soar Salter Path. Fullback Bill Wade will be moved into the line where he will see guard action and halfback Ernest Lewis has been shifted to Wade's fullback slot. Speedster James Nolon will start at left halfback.

The two teams, first round play off winners, played a single game to determine the league champion. Rain began to fall at the end of the fifth inning and play was stopped. Tommy Salter, Beaufort south paw, started on the mound for Beaufort and picked up the win as he allowed Havelock only two hits, a pair of singles. Beaufort scored one run in the first inning and added three in the second, and two in each the fourth and fifth. A cargo of pepper taken on in the East Indies more than paid expenses of Ferdinand Magellan’s first around the world voyage. Coast Guard Makes Three Weekend Assists Coast Guardsmen at Fort Macon, Cape Lookout and Cape Hatteras weathered hurricane Donna very well with no injuries, according to Lt. John Riddell, commanding of ficer, Fort Macon group. Person nel from Fort Macon made three assists over the weekend, one of them a yacht search Sunday after noon that proved unnecessary. Friday at 3 a.m. the Fort Macon 40-footer was called to rendezvous with the SS Cristobal at Cape Look Out shoals to remove a Crewman who suffered a ruptured ulcer and was bleeding internally. After the 40-footer had left the Station, a Marine helicopter brought a Navy corpsman and a Supply of blood to the station, where they were put on the 30 footer. The two Coast Guard ves sels met at the rendezvous point and the corpsman and blood were transferred to the larger boat. They then went to the Cristobal. The crewman, Donald H. Buc thrie, 30, was given a transfusion Cn route to Fort Macon. He was taken to Morehead City hospital by Dill ambulance. Later, he was taken to the Naval hospital at Camp Lejeune. Crew of the 30-footer Was How ard Jones and Rodney Gaskill. Aboard the 40-footer were Jack Wilson, N. L. Cantrell and R. W. Hancock. A search for the yacht Miss tripp lasted from 1:30 p.m. to about 5:30 p.m. Sunday. The yacht was later found safely moored in Relhaven. Aboard the Fort Macon 40-footer looking for the Miss Tripp were 1. D. Lewis, N. L. Cantrell and Cecil Taylor. The Atlantic Beach bridge ten der called Fort Macon at 12:45 p.m. Sunday and reported that it looked to him as if a 30-fOot yacht Was adrift about 100 yards west of the bridge. tender later reported that the yacht had proceeded under its own power. Eagles Edge Lions 13-6; Jaycees Blank Elks 18-0 By NIKKI GALANTIS and RONETTA WILMS Approximately 400 people attend ed the opening of the Morehead City midget football season Satur day night at the Camp Glenn field and were rewarded with some ex citing football. In the opening game the Fry Eagles nipped the Lion Cubs 13-6 in a hard fought contest and in the nitecap the Elks rolled to an 18-0 decision over the Jaycee Blue Devils. Dr. Robert Barnum, secretary of the Morehead City Football Boost ers club, said that he was very satisfied with the way all of the teams played and the attendance, and added that it is hoped that even more people will attend the next game. Some of the outstanding players in Saturday’s doublehcader were Bill Sample, Garland Thompson, ! Ronnie Mizesko, Cecil Sewell, Ed die West, Borden Wallace, Tommy | Morrow, Howard Barnum and Tom Dixon. All of these boys played Midget ball last year. O. J. Morrow, finance chairman of the Boosters club, announces that anothef letter has been re ceived from the National Pop War ner Conference inviting a More l head City team to play in a bowl | game in Philadelphia. Barnum said that since the club’s finances are so low (due to pur chasing equipment for the Midgets this year) it won’t be possible to i make the trip unless some organi zation or business firm were to help with the travelling expenses. He added that anyone interested in this could contact either him self or Dr. Barnum. The Midgets will play another doubleheader this Saturday night at 7 provided hurricane damage at the field can be repaired in time. If not, the two games will be play ed Sunday afternoon at 1. New Meeting Date Set The Beaufort town board will meet at 7 Tuesday night. The hear ing on zoning, originally scheduled for this past Monday, will be held at that time. (See notice in legal ad section of today’s paper). Havelock Travels to Beaufort Tonight for Conference Clash Officials Expect to Have Field Readied for Game The unpredictable Havelock Rams, who have been down and then up in their two grid games to date, will furnish the opposition for the Beaufort Seadogs tonight at 8 when the two teams meet on the Beaufort gridiron. The Rams were beaten 26-7 in their season’s opener two weeks ago and then came back to hand the perennially powerful Camp Lejeune Devil Pup*' a 12-7 loss last Friday. Not getting too worked up over the victory over Camp Lejeune, the Rams’ head coach John Barnes describes the Devil Pups as being “down” this year. “They lost some key personnel from last year and it has hurt them," said Barnes Wednesday speaking of Camp Le jeune. Speaking of his own team, Barnes said, "We don’t figure to be real strong either since we’ve got a young squad with a lot of boys who have never played foot ball before.” Barnes has only four starters back from last year’s squad. They are tackles Kenneth Heath and Harry Avery, center Rod Lupton and halfback David Seaton. “Right now Seaton is a doubtful starter at right halfback,” said Barnes, “because of a bad charley horse on his leg.” Seadog mentor Curt Lancaster is expected to go with the same starting lineup that he sent against Vanceboro last week. David Jones will again get the nod at the right halfback spot in place of injured Ray Hassell ami John Nelson will man David’s end position. The latest Word from school offi cials at Beaufort is that the two teams will be able to play on the field tonight. The new light poles were not damaged by the storm so, barring another one, every thing appears set. The Seadogs will more than like ly stay in the four and five-man lines they have used all year on defense in an attempt to stop the straight T attack of the Bams. The Seadogs currently are tied with LaGrange for second place in the conference standings. Each team has won one game and has a lost record of one-half game lost. Ayden is riding the top of the heap with a record of one Win and no i ► ■ - - ■ —' -‘ Club President Lists Committees For This Year Dr. W. M.

This week’s selection for Eagle of the Week is rugged 200-pounder Leslie Nelson, who two weeks ago started his third year as first string tackle for Norman Clark. Leslie has been in the Eagle starting lineup since he first came out for football as a sophomore. That Leslie grew up loving foot ball is no surprise as his father, Charles L. Nelson, was an out standing player for Morehead City in the 1920’s. A picture of the team that the senior Nelson played on is still hanging in the school. His father was offered a football schol arship at State college upon grad uation but declined the offer in or der to go in business in Morehead City. In this, his senior year at More head City, Leslie is the bulwark of the Eagle line that has proven to be the team’s strength in games to date.

Until Hurricane Donna, Leslie was earning school money by working weekends at Captain Bill's restaurant on the waterfront. Last summer he did construction work to stay in shape for football.
