Baptist Collegians, Fall Before Gaffney In Poor Condition, Bolling Springs Outfit Looks Good But Bwomes “Winded” In Tew Minutes. (By RENN DRUM.) Over In the neighboring county bf Cherokee, where the growth of football players Is not retarded by the boll Veevfl knd the most bril liant of the lot come from a Clary family, Coach Hammett’s hefty Boiling Springs college eleven fell 32 to 0 Friday, before the steady on slaught of the slashing Gaffney high outfit. At the conclusion of the game the cheering section of Cleveland county’s nevy, college had not a shred of a wonder as to why Gaff ney wins high school champion ships as regularly as new >cars are marked off on the calendar The story of the entire game Is short—the high school lads, play ing Billy Laval's famous “Crazy Quilt” shift, were just several touch downs better than the galaxy of high and prep school stars who are playing their first college iootball at Boiling Springs. A great part of the difference was a lanky young fullback, Earl Clary, and one of his running mates, a speedy, red-haired youngster by the name of. Gray. Show Poor Condition. Gaffney scored in every quarter of the game, while Boiling Springs threatened only once, that in the opening minutes of play before the husky Baptist boys began to pant and slow up in their stride. As they trotted on the field the ‘Reaching the GOAL LVALUE!

SERVICEABLE AND STYLISH WINTER SHOES FOR MEN The Paragon Dept. Store REAL SHOE VALUES Boiling Springs outfit looked un beatable. particularly in contest with high or prep schoobteams, tjut that impression was short-lived. Seemingly somebody out at Boil ing Springs is not ‘keeping train ing'’ as should be. Either that or the team is only a shell of what it ap pears to be. With a line averaging well over 170 pounds and running | up near 200 at points, and a back i field that is shifty and speedy Bml ! ing Springs should make a good record in its first college season— but it is a surety that before the Baptist boys do so they must im prove their physical condition to the extent that they can perform at top speed for 40 minutes instead of five. Thompson. a chunky lad with j enough ranginess for speed, is eas ily the cream Of the collegiate back field. Under a proper running at tack the heavy-driving youngster, who plows into a line with his chin between two high-charging knees, should be able to tear down any line , on the Boiling Springs schedule1 Against Gaffney he demonstrated ground-gaining drive at intervals, but a line that failed to open up at times kept him from being a con sistent gainer. Jim Erwin, running the Baptist outfit at quarter, was j speedy and active on the offense but weakened several times on thej defense as he. playing safety, per- j milted the charging Clary and the clever, little Gray slip through his arms. One Hefty l.ine. Boiling Springs sent a line into j the game against Gaffney that on paper and in uniform looks to be a world-beater for any college. Ap parently it is not such because the members have taken the game toe lightly. They may not be smoking or keeping late hours but at Gaff ney they certainly displayed no ex ceptional stamina when one or. two players are overlooked. In that line are at least three former Shelby j high stars, as hefty and as hard hitting as local fans ever cheered— Howard Moore and Buck Coble, tackles, and Cleve Cline, end. On the other end of the line was the elongated Haynes, a veteran Boil ing Springs player; at one guard was a brother of Howard Moore, who has forced his more experienc ed brother to really exert himself to keep a place in the line; and at center was Hemphill, former For est City star. At times Coble, captain of the team, played his usual rushing game, and at times he did not. Howard Moore, perhaps the hard est-fighting lineman ever to per form in Shelby, right often tore through the Gaffney line to nail the fast Gaffney backs for a loss, and on two occasions he nabbed Gaffney backs from behind after they had skirted the Boiling Springs end and had shook off the Baptist backfield. Yet there were times when Moore and his equally hard-playing brother did not look so flashy—perhaps because they had to stumble over several of their teammates spread flat on their backs, panting for water and air. On excusable factor for the slow ness of the Boiling Springs play may have been the weather, which was exceptionally warm for foot ball. and particularly so for heavy lads. Then again a most discon certing break in the opening min utes of the game was enough to take practically all of the pep out of Hammett's eleven. Gaffney kicked on. zoning Springs registered a first down by the heavy charging of Thompson, then was held for downs. Gaffney failed to gain and was forced to punt cn about their own 35-yard line. Coble. Moore and Cline rush ing Clary knocked down his punt and it was Boiling Springs’ ball in midfield-—a neat play. As it hap pened, however, a Boiling Springs player was ruled offside, and Clary kicked again. That was half of the bad break. This time Clary booted a wicked, twirling punt far across the field under the shadow of the Bolling Springs goal posts. Erwin elected to catch it, instead of per mitting it to twirl on over the line, and the ball slipped from his arms into those of the charging Gaffney boys. A few minutes later Clary skipped around left end for a touch down. From that point on it was Gaffney’s game, and only a matter of how much as Clary, Gray and Phillips took turns in slashing off steady gams. Neither team displayed any pass ing attack of worth. At Gaffney fans declare their team is not equal to the one last year in which Ben Clary and Welch galloped in the backfield with Earl Clary. Therein we differ—-it may not be up to the Gaffney outfit that licked Columbia last fall, but, by the time it gets down to Columbia this year, it will be It is a heavier eleven than was last year's Gaflney outfit. and furthermore it apparently has in the improved Earl Clary about the best football Clary Gaffney has ever cheered. The long-limbed fullback runs ends with tire best oi them,’ tears into a line much like a pile driver, and different from most fullbacks he comes up running aft er plunging through a line. On one occasion Friday he stuck his head into the heavy Baptist line, shoved his way through, shook hxmsell clear of the backfield and dashed 40 yards for a touchdown. In addition to his running and plunging prowess he is a punter superior to the aver age punter in North Carolina col lege circles this fall, and is no bad passer. But, perhaps, his greatest strength is on the defense.

The state division of markets will assist with the course in giv ing demonstrations in grading packing and shipping eggs and poultry. The College will make no charge for the course and rooms and. meals may be obtained at low rates near the campus. Last year there were 76 students registered and year Dr. Kaupp expects a much larger attendance He states that the North Carolina Poultry associa tion will meet at the same time when plans for the coming year will be made Both women and men are invited to participate in this short course.

Gray, the little red-haired half back, by another year will become one of Gaffney’s greatest stars, and Phillips, a sturdy built lad, is above the average high school back in play. Boiling Springs should draw a large crowd in Shelby on October 27 when the Baptists play Oak Ridge, and Boiling Springs in proper con dition should lick the big prep team—but such will not happen if the junior college outfit does not present a better appearance than at Gaffney.
