Let me start off by saying how nice it is
to be in Perquimans County. Everyone
that I have met has been most firendly and
in many ways, helpful as I moved into this
beautiful area.
The Recreation and Parks Department
is located on Grubb Street, beside The
Little Hint. The building sits on the corner
of the vacant lot where, within the next six
months or so, construction will begin on
what will be a beautiful park.
The Department will have an open house
on Sunday, Sept. 18 with all citizens of Per
quimans County invited. Try to take time
Sunday between 3 p.m. and 5 p.m. to drop
by the Department and meet and talk with
me. In order to have a successful program,
I will need both the ideas and support of
everyone in Perquimans County.
I want to plan a program with you, not
for you. Again, hope to see you on Sunday
at the Recreation and Parks Department.

Annual Grudge Match :
Aces Hand Pirates First Loss
The Hertford Business
and Professional Women's
(BPW) Club has agreed to
sponsor the Perquimans
County Girl Scout
Neighborhood formed
earlier this year.
As a sponsor, the club has
donated $25 to help with
operational expenses. One
of the members will be
registered to be a link be
tween the two groups.
Hulda Wood will be
assisting with registrations
and retainment of adults
and scouts. The BPW
members will also be
available to share their
skills with the girl scouts.
The two groups plan to
compliment their ac
tivities. As an example, the
' fij BILLY WOOTEN
; Recreation Director
John A. Holmes High
School of Edenton rolled to
their first victory of the
season Friday night
thrashing the host Pirates
of .Perquimans High School
by a score of 38-12.
The. game was over after
just the first half as the
visitors scored; 25 points
and held Perquimans
scoreless with just 45 yards
total in offense.
Edenton kicked off to the
Pirates to open the game.
Charlie Sutton ran for two
on first down, followed by a
three-yard gain by Mike
Flythe. Flythe again ran on
third down, this time find
ing a hole in the right side of
Edenton's line for 19 yards
and a first down. Sutton
carried for seven on the
next play, but the promis
ing drive stopped here as an
incomplete pass and a loss
of one on third down forced
a punt which traveled 40
yards before being downed.
The Aces then marched to
their first score. Quarter
back John Felton mixed his
running game with Kelly
and Michael White doing
most of the damage. A 14
play drive produced a one
yard touchdown plunge by
Michael White. The PAT
kick was low and Edenton
led 6-0 with 2:11 left in the
first quarter, y
Perquimans started their
next possession on their
own 40. Flythe lost four on
first and an attempted
screen pass lost one. Sutton
picked up six off tackle on
third down, bringing on
another Marvin Hunter Jr.
punt which traveled 34
yards. A 25-yard run back
put Edenton back in
business though on their
own"45-yard line.
An eight play, 55-yard
series, brought Edenton's"
second score, another one
yard run by Michael White.
The point after kick was
good, pushing the score to
13-0. :,jfi-,v..
Perquimans missed a
touchdown on the next
series, as the third pass, the
first two were incomplete,
was dropped.
The third Hunter punt of
the night took a Pirate roll
to the Aces' 25-yard line.
From there, the visitors
marched in 17 plays, 75
yards, all on the ground.
With QB Felton going over
from the one-yard line. The
kick was no good leaving
the score at 19-0.
Perquimans then fell one
yard short on a fourth down
try, giving Edenton the ball
back at midfield with 21
seconds left.
On the first play, Felton
found Donald Rankins wide
open over the middle for yet
another touchdown. The
kick was blocked with the
score Edenton 25, Per
quimans Oat half time.
The third quarter was
exactly like the first half
with the mobile Edenton
defense, keeping the Pirate
offense bottled up and the
Aces offense moving the
ball all over the field.
Edenton scored once on a
75-yard pass to Kelly White
and missed another op
portunity as a field goal at
tempt was blocked by the
Pirates. Perquimans' only
threat ended when an over
thrown pass was in
tercepted by Edenton's
Bernard Benbry.
Edenton scored its last
touchdown seven plays
after the interception with
White again going in the the
score. The kick was again
blocked giving Edenton 38
points for the night.

quested to contact the Town
