The game marked the eighth consecutive contest over a two-year period that the opposi lion iauea 10 score on xne oeaaog'i defense. The Sea dog offense, after mov ing like a well-oiled machine in the first half, bogged down in the last two quarters after Pud Hassell, starting quarterback, and a Camp Lejeune player were ejected from the game. Pud and the Lejeune player were escorted to the side lines when an official interpreted their blocking each other as fight ing. The flare-up came on the second play of the last half after a 12-man Camp Lejeune eleven had kicked off to Beaufort. Sophomore Johnny Hassell replaced Pud at the signal calling slot for the remainder of the game. The Seadogs opened the scoring in the first quarter with Ray Has sell providing the six points on a 23-yard sprint. Beaufort had taken the opening kickoff and began a march upfield but Were forced into a punting situation on a 15-yard penalty after they had racked two first downs. Lejeune then found the Seadog defense impenetrable as they lost two yards on two running plays. They elected to kick on third down and Beaufort took over on the 50 yard line where the ball was?down ed. Six plays later Ray Hassell put the first six Beaufort points on the scoreboard. The try for the extra point failed and the first quarter ended 6-0. In the second quarter Pud Has sell set up the second Beaufort touchdown with an 18-yard pass to David Jones that gave the Seadogs a first down on the Devil Pup one yard line. The big quarterback then ran the ball over on the next play on a quarterback sneak. Again the try for the extra point failed leaving the score at 12-0. Following the kickoff a series of three fumbles gave the Seadogs the ball on the Camp Lejeune 11 yard line and Beaufort scored two plays later on a pass from Pud to David Jones. The fumbles started with the Devil Pups dropping the ball after receiving the Beaufort kickoff.

Eagles Open Conference Slate With Easy 30-0 Win Jones Central Victims In Homecoming Contest By SHIRLEY FREDERICK and GEORGIA MIZESKO In their first conference test of the year Friday night, the Morehead City Eagles showed their best offensive at tack in four games as they romped past the Jones Central Rockets 30-0. As impressive as was the Eagle offense, even more so was tneir aeiense as two 01 tneir touchdowns resulted from heads up, alert defensive play. Harold Whealton swiped a Jones Central pitchout and went 25 yards un touched seconds before the end of the first half and James Nolan electrified the crowd in the fourth period -fey intercepting a Jones Cen tral pass and scampering 65 yards for a touchdown. The Eagles received the opening kickoff and immediately went into a surprise formation that caught the Rockets off guard and netted 25 yards. On the play tin' Eagles lined Thomas Fish and Ernest Lewis over the ball and flanked the rest of the team about 20 yards to their left. The snap went to Lewis who went wide to the left with nine blockers out in front of him. The play was nullified and the Eagles penalized however, when the officials ruled it an il legal procedure. An exchange of punts between the two teams gave the Eagles the ball on their own 40-yard line and from here they started a sustained march to their first TD. With Ernest Lewis eating up big chunks of yardage the Eagles moved the bali to the onc-yard line from where Lewis cracked over for the six-pointer. Chuck Sledge’s kick for the extra point was blocked and the first quarter ended with Morehead enjoying a 6-0 advan tage. A Jones Central fumble, recover ed by James Turner, set up the second Eagle touchdown midway in the second period. The recovery gave the ball to the Eagles on the Jones Central 37-yard line and seven plays later the Eagles had a 12-0 lead. Halfback Ted Garner did the scoring honors as he plow ed up the middle from five yards out. Sledge’s kick for the extra point was wide. With only seconds remaining to be" played in the first half the II Eagles kicked off to Jones Central and the Rockets ran the ball back to the 25-yard line. On their first play from scrimmage the Rockets called for a pitchout, only Harold Whealton was there instead of the Rocket ball carrier and the lone some end was really lonesome as he sped to paydirt before the Rockets could even give chase. Again the kick by Sledge was wide and the Eagle halftime margin stood at 18-0. Neither team was able to threat en in the third quarter but in the final period the Eagles put the throwing arm of David O’Neal to work and it paid off with a touch down after James Nolan had re covered a Jones Central fumble. Three running plays and a 15-yard penalty against the Rockets moved the ball down to the 10-yard line. After throwing one pass that fell incomplete. O'Neal hit Lewis with an aerial that covered three yards and then connected with Ludvik Pospisil on the touchdown strike. The tally ran the score to 24-0. The Rockets, runing out of time, look to the air in a desperate at tempt to score but they were soon to discover this to be a mistake too when James Nolan came up with one of their aeriels and went 65 yards for a tally. On the play, the ball was tapped in the air by Eagle defender Buck West and No lan picked it up before it hit the ground. Sledge’s kick was no good and the Eagles had to settle for the 30-point margin.
