The two teams are as evenly matched as two teams coujd be. The game will probably be won by the team that wants to win the most.

Even last year when the Burnsville team won the conference championship with a 7 and 1 record their only defeat came at the hands of Mars Hill.

The media center is open each day from 8:00 to 3:30 for the convenience of the student body. Students are allowed to come to the media center with their classes or as individuals when the need arises. Mr. Byrd is well pleased with the center thus far. Below are remarks that students have made concerning the new media center: Dairen Edwards-“It is a very nice place to study or do research.” Randy McCurry-’it’s nice.” Walter Bailey-“lt’s nicer than the one I’ve been used to.” David Perkins-“lt’s a good place to grade papers.” Randy Whitson-“lt’s a lot prettier than either of the other high school libraries.” **¥ LITERARY STAFF MEETS By Donny Laws On Friday, Sept. 24, the Literary Staff of Mountain Heritage had its first meeting of the year. The staff was reorganized by adding new students. This year the staff consists of Sheila Peterson in the superb performance of the offensive line. The Cougar offense rolled up a total of 355 yards.

Joe did an excellent job from his Quarterback position keeping the defense confused. Joe also did an outstanding job passing in this game. He threw one touchdown for 55 yards, and set up other scores on passes. Joe has improved with each game and appears to be a bright prospect for the Heri tage High Cougars. ** The Rebel Football Team put on its best performance of the year in defeating the strong Flat Creek Blue Devils by 38-0. The Rebels were led in scoring by Bill Shade, Roger Bank, Harley Paul Norton and the strong passing of Joe Gillespie.
