CHERRYVI^LE SERIES
We've still been unable to com
plete the history ol the Kings
Mountain ? Cherryville high
school football series but, as our
efforts to complete the case his
tory progress, we keep learning
"things."
Such learning tho' doesn't make
the best of reading, as far as
Mountaineer fans are concerned.
Some of the facts are:
Barring a Kings Mountain vic
tory tn 1941 (no score available),
Kings Mountain has not been a
ble to as much as tie a Cherry
ville team since 1934. Old-times
contend that Kings Mountain has
defeated Cherryvlll? in football,
but no one has come up with the
year or the score.
Kings Mountain ^hasn't scored
on the Ironmen since the 1945
Don Parker coached eleven lost
6- 19. Bill Cash Ion cracked over
after passes to R. Smith and Dett
mar (by Cashion) set the. tally
up.
Kings Mountain dropped a
close game here in. 1944 in the
first game played at "beautiful"
City Stadium by a score of 6-7. A
game scheduled for Shelby's field
was rained out and was never
played.
The 1941 game was played at.
Shelby, on neutral ground, be
cause of the keen rivalry be
tween the two teams (or should
we say town's fans). No score a
vailable. The 1945 game was also
played at Shelby. . ?'
In 1935 it was a close one ?
Kings Mountain lost 12-13 in
Coach Paul E. (Pete) Moss' first
year. The 1950 coach of the Iron
men, Hense Quinn, br-oke away
for a "dteofflf ~T?T~ pulF Th^rryfffce"
from behind late in the game. |

"Love Can End i
War"? Cashwell
"Love, operating from a hu
manitarian standpoint, not nec
essarily the Christian viewpoint,
would end all war," Rev. T. L.
Cashwell, Jr., pastor of Fiwt Bap
tist church, told members of the
Kings Mountain Lions club at
their meeting Tuesday night.
Speaking on the subject "Some
thing More Powerful than the
Hyrogen Bomb," Mr. Cashwell
pointed to the inconsistencies of
war involving Christian nations
and developed his theme with the
liberal use of Biblical quotations, i
Declaring himself "not a pad- 1
fist, far from it," Mr. Cashwell
said, '"We must separate the doer
from the deed, and we must cease
to hate. A chritian nation, like a
Christian person, cannot hate.
"We must see those we consid
er evildoers and Jesus at one time
ahd hope and pray that they can
come to know Him."
He reminded that Jesus, on the
cross, said, "Lord, forgive them,
they know not what they do,-'
and, yet another time, said, "Pray
for them wha persecute you."
The philosophy of the press, ra
dio, and many churches of today,
he charged, is "Love those around
you and fight our enemies." Re
viewing the recont history of this
nation, Mr. Cashwille pointed out
that World War I was supposedly"
fought to preserve the world for
democracy, and that World War
II was fought to finish the Job.
Yet only five years later, he said,
we're fighting again.
He doubted, h declared, that
any lengthy peace could ever
come from the policy of loving
one's neighbors and hating one's
