Gurley Gloomy Over Game Here Saturday Freshmen Cannot Play In P. C. Game Vet Bears Will Put Up Strong Fight Here iVill Shove Fast RackHelrl Into Shelby's First College Game. 'By CHARLIE PEGRAM.) Hickory.—S. I. A. Rules may prove the undoing of Coach Hick Gurley and his Lenoir Rhyne Mountain Bears when the bruins growl into action against Presbyterian college at the Cleveland County fair this week. The frosh, prides of the Bear den. won't get a smell of action in the big battle of religions. Presby terian plays only upperclassmen while the Lutherans use frosh oai the varsity. For this reason the Due West boys are due victory. Dick Gurley has added another gray hair or so in his mop because of that ruling. Early this season it looked like the Lutherans would run away with decisions over the whole schedule. Then Presbyterian was added. That was anything but honey to the Bears. But apparently the veteran men tor isn't half so worried as the casual observer would believe. He has a world of material at hand and graduation took as its toll only one varsity man. Captain Steelman. But when diplomas are dished out next June the biggest crop of grid talent in recent years will file through the portals of the Lutheran college. Captain Jack Kiser, of Llncoln ton, able and courageous youngster who has a mania for grabbing off baby dirigibles from the ether and I SPELLS OF BACKACHE "I HAVE used Cardui at inter vals for sixteen ‘ years, when I suf ered from weak ness, and it al ways helped me," says Mrs. J. W. Jinright, R, F. D. 2, Troy, Ala. “Mostly I was afflicted with bad spells of back ache. At times I felt as if my back would break. I would drag one foot after the other, in a helpless sort of a way, and once I got down in bed. My husband urged me to take Cardui, and I soon found what a fine medicine it really was. "When my second child was little, I was in very bad health. I did not pick up as I should have. I was weak and sickly.

Kiser plays end, the post L» has so ably filled for three years past. During vacation months Kiser gets his mail at Lincolnton. On the line with Kiser are such notables as Big Banks Ritchie, 200 pound giant tackle who towers well above six feet in his socks: Red Winecoff, fleet flankman; Russell, McAllister, Coulter. Foovey and a bunch of other aspirants who have discarded freshmen caps. The backficld this year bears ear marks of speed, stamina and knowl edge. Sprig Jones, coal-mining full back from Illinois; Hager, veteran quarterback of Mooresville who ha y rounded out eleven years of ex perience on the grid, getting his first taste of rectangle life in the grammar grades; Holshouser. youngster from Rockwell who parks a deadly charge off tackles; Pa spur, half-back: and the newly discovered stellarite of Hickory, Malcolm Reece, clean-cut fullback. Jones will in all probability do the punting again. He averaged about 40 yards last year and is do ing better than ever. Aerial attacks will probably be led by Hager. The triple-threat quarter throws the pigskin far. wide and handsdme. The former Shelby high coach hasn't yet risked a probable line up. The boys are scrapping hard for posts and realize that Presbyterian is no set-up. Richard the bear hearted will probably select the eleven to carry Lcncir Rhyne's silks a day or before the game.

The victorious club, the Cleveland cloth mill outfit, did not lose a game during the league schedule, although dropping the city title here last week to Eastside, the runner-up rlub in the county loop. (Photo by Ellis Studio I It is alone about this time of 1 vpar, as thp football srasnn is Irvine to cot off on both fort, (hat fans hrrpabouts begin talk ing bygone days and the groat g.itldors who have played in anrl about shrlbv. As is customary with humans, very few of the fans ran agree on their pirks. That being thr ease there will be those who will disagree with (he writer in naming, as he sees it. the two most valuable football players ever produeed here. For year pf?er year, for some thing like a decade or more. Shelby high has produced one or two per formers each season who have at tracted state-wide attention, while last year a Shelby pigskin carrier was named on the All-Southern eleven for the first time. And from all that roller-ion of good football players, just a good as any other one town in North Carolina has pro duced. we're willing to go oti rec ord' with the belief that two ends Hugh Arrowood and Melvin Peeler —were the best grldiorn artists ever produced here. Both boys never knew what it was to play to Ihe grandstand. Had they been of the grand stand type they perhaps would have been better known today, and, likely, v.nuld enjoy a high er rating with football fans. But it isn't likely that they would have been worth any more to the teams upon which fhev played. Hick Guriev, a veteran coach now. readily says that he never trained or handled a harder working, more dependable foot ball player than Hugh Arro wood. Down at Davidson col lege, where Arrowood sought higher education after leaving Shelby high. Monk Younger and Tex Tilson will tell you the same thing today. Arrowood's consistent play with the Wild cats, usually against larger and better elevens, landed him on the All-State team picked from the Big Five. No coach, insofar as we recall, ever left Arrowood off his All-Stale pick while the Shelby youth was in college. Some of the sportwriters and fans overlooked the plugging youngster who never pulled any thing flashy, but not the coaches—those old fellows, who watch every play and know why it worked or did not work, pick their stars from the worth of those stars to the team, not ac cording to how many thrills they give the grandstand. When Melvin Peeler was at, Shel by high he was no flash. No one ever expected him to be a Grange or an Oberlander. Yet every Shelby high fan knew that in every game there was one place in the Shclbv line which did not leak. By his last year here Peeler came to be about the most valuable cog on the eleven When he entered Duke uni versity, where practically every can didate for the varsity eleven was heavier and bigger, Casey Morris said "Sure he’ll make the team. If they ever get an eleven there which they can keep that boy from mak ing, I want to see It " Then the football dope began to pour out of Ouke this year about the remarkable talent coming up from the fresh eleven. This dope had it that such stars as Jankoski and Ruie would have a hard time holding their jobs. The former Sheiby | boy wasn't even mentioned in Morris Has Team Ready For Opening . Battle On Friday Shelby Coach Enable To Tell Just How Green Eleren Will Work. "We'll just have to wait until Friday and see how good, or, bad they look when most of them play in their first real game," Coach "Casey" Morris declared today while j putting the finishing touches on the Shelby high eleven which will play its first game at the city park Fri day afternoon. The strong Belmont Abbev prep school eleven, with a new coach and j some new material, will battle the ' rebuilt. Shelby eleven-in its Initial contest of the year. About the only cheer the Shelby coaches can get out of their thoughts about the first game is that the local eleven will be about the heaviest Shelby has sent on the field in several year.". But it is so green, for the most part, that the local mentors are afraid that the weight may do more harm than good. Much of the success of the game will depend upon the performance of three players—Wilson, veteran line player: Eskridge and Rippv. backs. Of course these three cannot battle the Irish boys alone, but they may make a good job of it by helping the new players on the eleven keep their signals straight and their head reasonably cool un der fire. The game will more than likelv draw a good crowd despite the fair, because football fans are getting in the humor to see some gridiron play. the early dispatrhes, although there was gibs of gushing stuff about a sensational new end who eould ratch forward passes hotter than Rogers Hornsby can snag baseballs. Not a word ahout Peeler. The sport dope sters were doing the talking then. This week there rame a sport story out of Durham in which Coach Jimmy DeHart gave the probable lineup of the Duke eleven, which has the South sit ting back wondering what a point-making machine it must be. And one of the ends on the team the coach said would play Pittsburgh was Melvin Peeler, the young fellow the sportwrit rrs eould not see for watching the sensational boys catch for ward passes. Put it down, you folks who are going to the Pitt - Duke game for the opening of the billionaire stadium. that Peeler will give Pitt a lot of trouble. And pul it down, also, that Shelby has yet to produce bet ter gridders than Arrowood and Peeler. It takes more than abil ity to make a real star, a Star the roaches consider valuable; it takes the innards to keep bat tling and scrapping until that ability is recognized. Those two have it— or, rather. Arrowood had it, and Peeler has it. Of course, as we say, there will be those who differ, but, for our part, we’ll leave it to any roach who has tiandicd the two above named luminaries, any coach against whose eleven they have performed.
