Shelby Highs Run Up Heavy Score On Lowell ; Vli Swain Capt. Wilson. Barrelt Lead In 45*9 Victory. Logan Breaks Leg. The Shelby Highs finally hit their stride here Friday after noon and galloped to a 45-9 vic tory over Lowell. The visitor* turned in their only score in the second half when Coach Morris had his shock troops in the game and hi* regular* on the bench. The victory, however, proved cosi ly to the Shelby eleven a* H. A. Lo jgaft, husky center, had his right ley i broken in the second half. On a jLowell line charge Logan was caught ! under the pile of players and his | leg snapped under the "weight as it wa.-, in a twisted po: itlon His bro ther, Evans, remained at his tackle post atjfl ployed for the remainder of the quarter. The glory of the galloping day was pretty well divided between four or five ahelby backs although McSwain and Capt. Wilson turned In the most yardage. Eskridge, Con nor and Purp Barrett made two touchdowns each while Wilson crash ed the line for the seventh. “Red Brown played his usual stellar game at tackle, hut Stroup, the lanky cen ter, rah him close for line honors. The tackling and defensive play of Eskridge and Wilson featured. Mc Swains passing was tip-top. and a rnong the shock troops sent in the pass catching or Bill Harrm and the running of R. K. Wilson and Bar irett featured. For Lowell Hand, the 300-pound fullback, was tire out standing performer. In fact, the blgj boy who could not be stopped with out five or six Shelby players on his back, was about 75 percent of the visiting aggregation. He appeared to be big. fat and clumsy, but hi; could hit a line, block and tackle like nobody's business. Rfteves, * speedy little halfback, proved a great help to Hand, and it was Ueev es who galloped across with Low ell's only touchdown despite the fact that, several Shelby regulars had been sent back in to prevent it, Shelby started a touchdown march j with the opening whistle. McSwaia: shot around end for 15 yards, Wil-! son plunged across tackle lor no more, and the ball was in scoring 'distance, Connor, with a fine exhibi tion of twisting, squirming and twirling, wound his way through the Lowell secondary defense for the touchdown. Eskridge kicked the ex tra point. Coming back the big ornng'e-je'r • eyed eleven, with its confidence re stored. started another march. The jtow-hettded MeSwain reeled off an other 30 yard run and then Cnpt,. Wilson drove his •'13” numeral through the line for another 20 cards. With the ball in scoring dis tance Alf Kskridge hurtled through the line, behind Wilson’s interfer ence for a touchdown. Connor fail ed to kick goal. From that point on Shelby cross ed the field time and time again on short end runs, line bucks, and crlis cross plays hi which every back fea tured more or less. The third touch down came when Shorty MeSwaim sipped one of his perfect passes in to Eskridge's arms and the big quarterback stepped over for the marker. Connor kicked the ball through the bars. Again the Shelby eleven battered' its way across the field and Capt.j Wilson plunged over the goal linej for the touchdown Eskridge kicked! it. i In the closing minutes of the first half Eskridge whipped a pass to the wiry Connor for another touchdown. The try for extra point failed. In the second .half Coach Casey Morris sent In his entire scrub team with the exception of Capt. Wilson who remained to hold the boys to gether. Just a few minutes after the second half play started the Lowell outfit blocked R. K. Wilson’s punt behind the goal line for a safety. From that point on. with Waldrop. Harrill. Evans Logan and Barrett playing great ball, the scrubs held tight. Capt. Wilson intercepted a Lowell pass ran 15 yards and seemed near loose for a long touch down. but he dropped the ball, re versed himself and recovered It. R K. Wilson. Devine, Capt. Wilson and Barrett carried It near the goal line, and Barrett rammed himself over for a touchdown. A few minutes later R, K. Wilson and Barrett reelr ed over two more long runs, and Barrett wriggled through for an other touchdown. With big Hand hitting the line with a crash on evei-y play Lowell started a come-back in the final quarter. Hand finally battered his way to the five-yard line, and al though Shelby rushed In three or tour regular line players the speedy little Reeves, running behind the blocking Hand, skirted Shelby's right end for a touchdown. Hand plough ed bis way through the line for the extra point. As it was the scrubs made 12 points to Lowell's mm In the last half To win the orange-jerseyed first-stringers did not need their ?s points ( Members or the Wake Forest frosh eleven and of the Bolling Springs college team viewed the game and were particularly lmprevi ed, Judging by their comments with J Shorty McSwain's passing and run I nlng.

At the beginning of the season we stated that Bill Murray, of Duke, h: our opinion, was one of the best hall carriers in North Carolina ancl the South. Since then Mr. Murray has done more than hu; share of licking Viginia. Davidson. Navy and Wof ford. Big timers who saw him slip bv players on the Navy team rated him as one of the best backs ever seen in action against the midshipmen. That's saying a mouth full. Three or four 'ears ago Maxes Welch played fullback for Gaffney High against Shelby. At that lime he and Earl Clary were among the greatest high school backs we nail ever seen. This year we said Clary would be a great college player. On Wednesday of last week he made three touchdowns ior the South Car olina frosli in a game with the Clem son first-year men. Watch his smoke yw.x. we waiUH’U Maxey Welch pass, punt, run ends and smash the line against State col lege. We came home to say that 're was as good as any backfield man in the South. Are wo wrong? South Are we wrong? South Carolina beat Duke. Duke licked the Navy, ani Glemson. thanks o Mr. Welch, de feated South Carolina. All Welch did was to throw a 30-yard pass '.or one touchdown, to-s a 38-yard pass for another, and then run 60-some yards in three play', for the other. Put Maxey Welch and Johnny Branch behind that Georgia line and they would be All-American backs The line must be there. Wouldn't It have born groat to sco Matey Welch, ,Farl Clary and Milk Gold In the same back flold? An opposing tr:vm could not have figured out in a thou sand years which of the trio was going to get the ball, and what the heck they were going to da with it. All three can pass, punt, run or anything else you happen to think of. - * * » Nest year on South Carolina lair j week Mr. George Blanton, the old Wake Forest quarterback, this de partment and several others, who j do not claim to ac South Caxolin- i tans, are going to'sec that Clemson South Carolina game, just because It will be well worth the trip to see Maxey Welch and Fnrl Clary work ing against each ether. Want to go along? Over at the Shelby High park'' Casey Morris has a kid team prac tising every day which will in a fete years show Shelby some real loo* batl. Honest-to-goodness football players, with a few exceptions, star from the ground up. meaning tna., they learn the game and all of it ■ ■ tricks early in life. This kid eleven a Shelby High knows more football now than a number of high scho< 1 teams we’ve seen in action. Ole Timer, the best foul ball writer In the South, who tells his story In the Atlanta Journal, says that the Georgia team this year has stopped two of Amer ica’s greatest backs—Booth, of Vale and Branch of Carolina. But wateh the Georgia sport-writers pass up Branch when they go to pieking their mythical elevens. ..Ole Timer blundered once again ' when he paid tribute to Collin;, Enright and Cerney for the light pur I up by the inexperienced Carolina iuie against Georgia The line coach at Carolina. Mistiu; Ole Tuner.. & a fellow by the name of Bob Fetter, j brother of Bill. When North Caro lina gets the Fetters out of her ay - tem. football hereabouts will not be what it once was and is. We stick to it—over at Shelby High this year are two or three foot ball players, including “Red" Brown 1 Wake Wins Over B. S. .Junior Baptists Lose Hard-Fourh s Game To Wake Forest i Frosh. i I 'I I .'I With two subs playing out standing roles in the attack the fast Wake Forest frosh eleven defeated the Boiling Springs junior college team 13 to 6 in a dose, hard-fought gridiron tus sle on the Shelb.v field Saturday afternoon. The battling Bulldogs fron: Cleveland county’s junior college turned in eight first downs to three j for the frosh eleven, yet the visitors tmade their first downs count for more and that was the game inso ffar as the details are concerned, but f the details fail to tell of the fight j the Rackley eleven staged, or of j the thrills sideline spectators re ceived from long. twisting jaunts i with the ball and from desperate j aerial attacks which both elevens j staged. Wilson and Stagg. sub backs, and i Edwards, a pass-grabbing end, were \ the stellar performers for the Wake (first year men, while Stroud, Wall land Boney performed best on the Bulldog offense with Falkenberg, husky and hard-hitting tackle, and j and Capt. Hubert Wilson, who would ! have been stars r,n some of those | teams Shelby had a half decade «r | so ago. Give that Shelby line some 1 of the so-called Layir.on warn scrap and the team us it is would be hard to stop. How many of the old fans remember when Beam played his t first game five years ago at Char lotte? Shelby had a big. husky line of boys from 180 lo 200 pounds There was some question about the eligibility of Caldwell, one tackle Casey Morris was told about it. “I can beat you Sper.rgr guys without Caldwell,” Casey answered—and he did. Fred Beam, 200-pound brother of Laymon, was shifted to tackle. Laymon then was only a kid and tipped the scale at just 130 pounds, but he went in at the guard posi tion next to Hany Grigg. Remem ber how that game turned out? Spencer was doped to beat Shelby without taking the wraps off. The score was 40-sometlring for Shelby and Spencer didn't cross the last white line. Every lime the Shelby line squatted for a play big Fred Beam would ease up behind his 130 pound brother, kick him a mighty wallop in the south end and say, “look-a-here. you’re little, but you're; loud. Let’s get 'em/ And on seven i plays out of ten the Beam brother.;, the little one going side by side with the big one, broke up the Spencer plays, before they *ot started. Ladies and Gentlemen—and the rest of you. that's what it takes tc. win football games, and that's what it takes to bring out a bunch o' rabid fans. Give old unlucky “i3" Hubert Wilson and Red Brown five fighters like that and they’ll net lose another game this year. I — 3apt. Howard Moore, playing a , great game at end. showing up best ion the defense. When the visitors .directed their attack to the leftside [of the Boiling Sprirg-. line, where ‘Moore and Falkenbe g waited, the | attack failed and fai’f ; a.;ain materialize into ya"'s air! the frosh I outfit hunted otiic.- .p- t., 'n w-icch ; | to do their ball advancing. | The junior Baptists started of; 'with a mad rush, which might have proved disastrous for the freshman i team had it not been for the latter’s i aerial attack and stubborn defense near their goal line. On the first iplay Zeno Wall dashed across left tackle and sqmrmed for 30 yards to put the visitors on the defensive. * Stroud tossed a pass to Wall for five yards, and then the big lull back tore off 10 more yards across ; the Wake line. But with the ball on ! their own two-yard line and four ; downs in which to make it. the i fast charging Wake line braced and ; held like a stone wall, the ball go ing over. To and fro across the field the two elevens battled through the first and second periods, and on into the third period. But it was in the third quarter that the Baptist youths, tired of battling each other by land without success, took to the air. And what an air attack both outfits threw up, frequently inter cepyng me neaves or the opposing team. Finally the frosh got in hit ting distance of the uprights ant Tucker slung a long pass to Wilson for the first touchdown. The try for extra point failed. Undismayed the Bulldogs took to the air them selves and within a few minutes Boney whipped one of his portside passes to Wall for a touchdown. Try for point failed and the score was again deadlocked. The frosh start ed passing again, and then on a fake play that clicked with perfec tion Wilson swept around end be hind a wave of interference for the second and final touchdown. The extra point was made on a forward pass. The Bulldogs battled valiantly to come from behind once more. Wall flipped a pass into Stroud’s arm for a 30-yard gain. and the junior Baptists seemed headed for another marker in the final min utes, but again the first year men held and soon the game was over.
