Charlotte scored two touchdowns
:n the first, quarter, both by breaks
of the game as Shelby displayed a
two-to-one offensive ability during,
the quarter. The second and third
-manors were scoreless, but in th
final Funderburk ran a punt back
48 yards for a touchdown.

On the kick-off Shelby .started,.?

Zeno Wall, displaying his old-time’
cunning and .speed before a spill

downs he ar.d the lanky Gold ran
the ends and tore through the line.
On the next play Wall dropped

arms. A Shelby touchdown seemed

Wall fumbled and Hunter. Char

and chased 56 yards for a touch
down.: Shortly later the dazed Wall
fumbled again and Hunter recover

ran 40 yards for the second touch

the Charlotte safety man pushed
him out. of bounds. One bit of in
terference in getting out the last
man would have meant a touch
down. but the crippled little Wall
couldn't get there, and the other
backs and line players had sprawl- j

captain that far. Yet the play, the 1
longest Shelby made during the
game, gave the crowd a big thrill. |
