Rockets Roar in 46-7 Victory Over
North Duplin; East Duplin Friday
Jones Central’s Rockets finally
broke loose Friday night and ran
rampant as they buried the
Rebels of North Duplin under
an avalanche of touchdowns and
extra points, 46-7.
The Rockets, who have been
frustrated since early in the
gridiron season, began to re
lease some of their tensions im
mediately in the first quarter
when they moved 51 yards in
eight plays for a quick tally.
Halfback William Hawkins, who
had four touchdowns for the
night, scampered 11 yards for
the Rockets’ first score.
The Rebels had their brief mo
ment of advantage in the second
quarter when Jimmy Thompson
passed 13 yards to Ricky Bell
capping a 63-yard drive for the
lone Rebel touchdown. Bell
kicked the PAT and North Dup
lin hung up their scoring shoes
for good.
It was,Rockets all the way the
rest of the game as Hawkins
took the Rebel kickoff and dash
ed down the sidelines 80 yards
for a touchdown. Randy Banks
kicked the first of four out of
seven extra point attempts.
The Rockets then took a North
Duplin punt on the Rebel’s 44
yard line and moved into pay
dirt again in five plays. Half
back Leslie Strayhorn had a 26
yard run in the drive, and full
back Joby Arthur carried for
the touchdown on an eight-yard
run. The PAT was good.
After the halftime break the
Rockets came back even strong
er as Hawkins intercepted a
North Duplin aerial at the Jones
Central 48-yard line to set up
another Rocket score. During
the ensuing drive quarterback
Dalton Ange passed to end Jim
my Smith far 29 yards, and Haiw
kins got the touchdown on an
eight-yard run. Banks kicked
the PAT.
Early in the final period in
(Vhich' the, Rockets seemed to
get even atronger as they scored
-
19 points, Hawkins had runs of
37 and 16 yards in a 69-yard
Jones Central drive that Haw
kins topped with a six-yard
touchdown jaunt. Banks extra
point was again good.
Later in the period Jones
Central got the ball on the North
Duplin 38. Arthur ran seven
yards for the touchdown. The
final tally came on an 11-yard
run by Strayhorn that ended a
68-yard Rocket drive. Strayhorn
also had an 11-yard run during
the march into the end zone.
Banks missed the last two PAT
attempts.
Halfback William Hawkins
scored four touchdowns and
gained 108 yards rushing in 10
carries for a 10.8 yard average
per carry.
The Rockets are host to East
Duplin this Friday night for the
Homecoming Game at 8. If they
win their final game the Rockets
will be five and five for the sea
son as their record now stands
at four wins, five losses.

Blue Devils Roll Over South Ayden
34-7 as 'Hindu' Ward Scores Four
Halfback Carson “Hindu”
Ward scored four touchdowns
Friday night, matching the four
he scored last week, as he led the
Jones High Blue Devils to a
smashing 34r7 triumph over
South Ayden.
The one other Blue Devil
touchdown came on Franklin
Brown’s 99-yard kickoff return
of the second half kickoff. Ward,
a six-foot 170-pound senior back
field mainstay all season, gain
ed over 100 yards rushing and
scored on plunges of one, two,
three, and four yards.
South Ayden got the first
score of the game on an 80-yard
drive in the first quarter. The
single scoring insult against
their defense was enough to get
the Blue Devils’ offense in gear
and rolling as they drive 65
yards early in the second period
that saw quarter-back Kenny
Brown pass 18 yards to flanker
Raymond Cox for the big play
of the series. Ward ran the final
two yards for the touchdown
and fullback Lester Perry ran
the extra point.
Ward dived one yard to cap
another Blue Devil scoring drive
in the second period and again
Perry ran the extra point.
Brown, a junior, then opened
the second half with his 99-yard
jaunt and Ward ran the extra
point.
The Blue Devils sustained an
Bl-yard march into the end zone
for their second third period
