The Shelby highs clqpe their gridiron season here Friday in the annual county battle with Ktnys Mountain, and the orange jerseys hope to turn In a victory in their final game of Shelby high’s most disastrous football year. The eleven this year has had its ups and downs, starting off with green material and hoodooed and handicapped all season by injuries but the yearly tussle between the two county elevens is always 'on eldered one of the two big ba ties of the season and a victory Frida / will go far In helping the boys to forget those affrays in which thev have been outclassed. Should Pe Close. However, the Morrbmen have nc cinch in anticipating: a victory Fri day. Coach Christenbery has a .'is*, ate ping eleven at Kings Mountain this year, and Kings Mountain, sel dom a winner over the county-teal town in football, has high hopes oi paying a few old debts here Friday afternoon. It is the best opportunity in vears that the Mountaineers have nad of sending Shelby from the field with the short end of the score rnd Coach Christenbury will “shout the works" Friday to do Just thn‘. The game will more than likely develop into an air battle with Kings Moun tain hoping to complete many passes in Shelby's rookie backfleld. Court Morris' charges will in all hkell hood pin their scoring hopes on Hat Farris’ line plunging and a passing attack with Hippy starting the pig skin and “Shorty" McSwain "Tab bing for it. Go Down In Mud. Last Friday the highs went down again and this time in the m id as they were defeated by Llncolnton at Lincolnton on a mud-covered, soggy gridiron. Cornwell scored two of the Un colnton touchdowns and Captain Armstrong the third. The game was marked by repeated fumbles, due to the mood and slippcryness o' the pigskin, and-by intercepted pass"' and ball toters who slid and kid - ded about the field when they at tempted to run. Shelby's lone nope of scoring in the game lay in the aerial route and so slick was the field that would-be receivers found themselves unable to get near the past, and when they did get there usually slipped and fell In Jumping for the ball. It was the eightn vi tory of the year for Lincolnton, which thia season has one of the atrongest elevens in the history of the school.

Going down 21 to 6 before Campbell college Saturday at Buie* Creek, Blainey Barkley’s Bolling Springs eleven lost its opportunity to go into a tie for the junior college North Car olina title. Had the Baptist de feated Campbell they would have been deadlocked with Weaver college, which has not bren defen ted but was tied by Campbell. Buies Creek, Nov. 18.—Campbell college defected Boiling Springs her® today, 21-6. scoring ail of Us points in the last half. Bolling Springs counted its score when Boney ran around his own left end for 40 yards in the second quarter. The first, half, 'outside of Honey's run, was minus thrills, being devot ed chiefly to punting and pity be tween the 30-yard lines. However, after the in ter miss ion, Bob Hays’ men came back m the field and started the fireworks o f by scoring a safety and touchdown early in the quarter. The Campbell backs worked the ball down to he ten yard line and Vestal hurled a pass to Myers back of the goal line and Captain Harrington, of Camp bell, caught It for the first marker when a Boiling Springs back Knock ed it out of Myers reach. Wilson counted in the fourth quarter for the winners’ second touchdown on c two-yard plunge after ho and Taylor had worked the ball to that point front midfield. The last Campbell touchdown came oy the pass route. Vestal threw a beauty to Myers back of the goal a few min utes before the game was over. Ves tal counted extra point. The playing of Taylor and Wilson in the backficld and Captain Har rington In the line featured for Campbell, Boney and Waters in the ball-carrying department, and Coble Cccile and Kelly in the line looked best for Kackleys Boiling Spring' outfit.

GRIDIRON GAB Itfnn Drum Shelby's moit colorful football battle for years will be no more. Word from Charlotte has It that the Charlotte highs have drop ped Shelby from their schedule and have replaced the local lads with Gastonia. The news comes right after the worst drubbing ever handed a Sbe' by team by Charlotte or any other eleven, and It leaves fans here won dering somewhat despite the explan ation given. Walter Skidmore, athletic dtre' tor at Charlotte, says Shelby was dropped because by the new Stats athletic ruling Shelby is in Class V> while Charlotte is in Class A and will play Class A opponents. There is no disposition here to term the Queen City athletic officials "High Hatters'' as South Carolinians said of Chuck Collins football eleven due to a schedule change, but we won der If the Charlotte schedule maker thought back over the outcome of past Charlotte-Shel by tussles before he dropped (he IVlori'lsmen',* To begin with it Is admitted that the Queen City Wildcats had a soft lime of running touchdowns over Sheiby this year.' But this year Casey Morris had a group of t w boys on his eleven with not enough veterans to shake a very smell stick at. Because of the bare fact that the material Just wasn't thero t was one of the weakest elevens »ver to wear Shelby high colors, rhcy failed to give Charlotte fans \ thrill, surely, but in bygone years Morrismcn and Gurleymen have jiven Charlotte and Shelby Ians aoth thrills and tears, and come an other year with Morris’ kid eleven developing it will be just another nne of those old-time Shelby elevens hard for any team to lick. Naturally the Charlotte game has for years been the big Shelby game. Casey Morris hasn’t mentioned be ing dropped as yet. but fans regret R. They’re not storming about it; they just hate that such is the case. And they are somewhat mystified why it was done when they recall the great Charlotte team which Shelby’s greatest eleven sent back home licked five years ago, and the Shelby eleven which repeated the dose the following year. Charlotte has won more than has Shelby, but the games have always been close and colorful. It was just two jeRrs ago that a Shelby end. “Milky” Gold, who later became %n All Southern pick and is now at Oak Eidge, almost single-handed held one of Charlotte's mightiest teams to a mere six points. Surely that lanky youth gave Charlotte fans their money's worth that day? Shelby fans discussing the matter arc prone to lay the blame for the dropping by Char lotte to the new system of class es for the high school athletic teams of the State. Therein the writer agrees with them. First of all, the fact that Shelby is in Class B and Charlotte is Class A is not within itself enough ex planation for 'the switch. Carolina in the Southern conference plays Davidson, belonging to no confer ence, and so does State and Duke. Any number of great grid teams go out of their class for games, and Charlotte might have used Shelby for an early season try-out—Y know the records fail to show very nanv —in fact, only one—69-0 licking given a Shelby team. This class arrangement for high school athletics is all the bunk, if you care to turn to past records.

OFFICE WITH CLEVELAND RANK & TRUST CO. every school in the section play each other on an equal basis. In criticism of the class reg ulation, our wager is that more of the modern so-called Class B teams in all sports have gone to Chapel Hill to battle lor State titles in by-gone years than have Class A teams. Check up on it and see. We'll stand pat. The Shelby highs have travelled to Chapel Hill three times to com bat for the State baseball title and have returned three times with tne title. A Shelby high eleven has played one time in Chapel Hill for the football crown and has been in the western finals on two other oc casions. A Shelby high baseketball quint has been in the western finals a couple of times. How many of the Class A high schools can beat that record? It was just a couple of years ago that eight of the 22 players in the annual battle between Carolina and State were Shelby high products. Very few of the major college elevens in this State have trotted on the field within a 10-year period without a Shelby high boy on one of the two teams, and In six years five Shelby high boys have been picked on All-State elevens. All these things indicate that it casions. A Shelby high basketball which assures athletic prowess—it’s the coach and the boys, some of them, in a small town, scrawny, some fat, some lightr, some just so so. Shelby hates It very much that Charlotte-Shelby tigssles are over. They meant much for Shelby be cause it is always great sport to see an under-dog in an athletic scrap, particularly so when the “under dog” has always managed to give a rather good account of itself in battle, He Fessed Up.
