But thrills are heightened from a long run from a pass or an interception. And Randy Banks took the cake, as the say ing goes, in that. In the first thrilling run, Randy snatched off a Crossnore pass and ran about fifty-five yards for a touchdown. But a flag was down up the field and the score was annulled. But in the fourth quarter the oppor tunity came again, and Randy snatched another Crossnore pass from the air and streaked off, with Earl Boyles throwing a fin al block to open the way. This was a 75-yard touchdown registered. From indications Friday night and from the game with Mara Hill in which EY won 66, these boys have places to go.
