It appears that South Point’s. Red Raiders, who have taken great strides in athletics since Jim Biggerstaff took over as athletic director and head grid mentor a few years back, are the class of the league. The Raiders lost only a few players and should field one of the top 3-A clubs in the slate. Heading the Raider attack is junioi' quarterback Doug *'avis and the Raiders will own one of the league’s top runners in Wayne Fcwell. Dennis Grier heads up the de fense from his guard position and is on'- of the lop jier- formers in the state. The most interesting part of the ’73 season could bo the fight for second place. The conference’s top two clubs will earn a berth in the WNCHSAA playoffs. The teams wo see fighting for second are Shelby, Fast Gaston, Crest and East Rutherford, and possibly Piurns. That’s right. . .Burns. The Bulldogs found out last year what victory is and with their highly capable coaching .staff and their entire offensive line returning, they could surprise a lot of people. Shelby lost most of its players off last year’s VVXCHSAA championship team but the Lions are always tough. That’s a much-overused statement but it’s true. East Gaston’s one of three new schools in the league. P’s a new consolidated high school which combined the teams from Ml. Holly and Stanley so they have to be good. Some Clubs Unpredictable Another interesting sidelight about East Gaston is that the team runs from several formation.^ SWCt schools who have not been accustomed to playing a Dick Thomp son-coached team will have a lot of trouble adjusting their defense. Crest is coming into its own under Ma.\ Beam and could be in the running and East Rutherford came a long way la.st year under Grady Pope. The Cavaliers lost only to South Point, Shelby and Kings Mountain. The remaining seven positions are unpredictable. Since teams are not playing every team in the league, most small schools have much easier schedules than the bigger schools. Kings Mountain, Lincolnton, R-S Central and North Gaston appear to be unpredictable. All show promise of fielding good clubs but could have poor seasons if injuries interfere. Kings Mountain's facing a serious injury pro blem right now and if some of its players don’t get back into the lineup soon, Bobby Jones could suffer through his first losing .season. Lincolnton, like Kings Mountain, is young. Von Ray Harris says this is the smallest team he's had in quite a while and Lincolnton clubs of the past have been known foi their size. North Gaston, another SWC newcomer, has been strong in 2-A circles in the past..Coach Joe Eller says he’s defeated SWC teams before so he’s not scared of any one. But the team North Gaston has been defeating has been Cherryville and Clu-rryville’s not a true indication of the SWC’s strength. Cherryvillo, Bessemer City and Chase should bring up the real. Cherryville’s said to be much-improved and the Ironmen own one of the leagi\'’s top runner.s—if not the top one—in Tommy Summers. With a healthy Sum- mera, the Chei-ries could have a decent year. Picking The Winners Bos.semer City's not yet ready for the SWC and Chase has been laltering since Bob Bush stepped down as coach a couple of years ago. Don't hold me to them, but here’s the prediction of finish for the ’73 S'WC clubs; 1, South Point; 2, Shelby: 3, East Gaston; 4, Crest; ."i. East Rutherford; (5, Burns- 7, Kings Mountain; 8, Lin colnton: 9, R-S Central; 10, North Gaston; 11, Cherryville; 12, Bessemei City; l.'l. Chase, And, now, let’s take a look at the Friday night open- KINGS MOUNTAIN AT BESSEMER CITY: With Johnny Byers and Dale Harlsoe out with injuries and several other KM players playing despite injuries, this game could go either way. If Goldie Byers is ready to play for th2' Yellow Jackets, the five-mile ride bi’.ck to Kings Mountain could be a long one for the Mountaineers. But, assuming Byers is not ready, we’ll go with the Mountain eers, 12-6. EAST GASTO.N AT CREST: This will be the best game of the night and could go either way. Crest fans leel they have the conference’s top quarterback in Dennis Sinkler but they'll be highly itr.pressed with young Mack Green of East Gaston. We ll pick the Warriors in a close one, 14-13. R-S CENTRAL AT McDOWELL — McDowell, or Marion if you prfeer, is always strong in the Noi'thwestern Conference and R-S Central isn’t the power it once w-as in the SWC. We’ll pick McDowell, 21-0. SOUTH POINT AT CHASE: The Raiders show their strength earl.v, 42-0. WATAUGA AT AVERY COUNTY; Should be no trou ble lor Watauga, 28-7. NORTH GASTON AT CHERRYVILLE: Could go either wav, but we’ll take the Wildcats in a close one, 13-7. ALEXANDER CENTRAL AT WILKES CENTRAL: This .should be the best game in opening night action in the Northwest Conference. We’ll give it to Wilkes on the home field advantage, 7-0. GRANI'TE FALLS AT HUDSON — No idea. We’ll flip a coin and it comes out heads . . . oops, Hud.son MAIDEN AT NEWTON — Maiden, a 2-A school, has everything to gain. We’ll say 21-20, Maiden. ^ TEMPORARY RELIEF OF MINOR PAINS ^ For Guarantatd Relltf wMh ^ PRUVO Tabs or Your Moim/Bode On Sot* cA. kings mountain drug CO. ^ Mountaineers Open Friday At Bessemer City Mounties Rated Slim Favorites; Byers, Ont With Injury Mountain'.-; .M 'iiliurotu.s.

Hamrick starts at tackle on offense and Rose- boro sees duty ct tight end on offense and tackle on defense. The Mountaineers open 1973 play Friday night at Bessemer City against the Yellow Jackets.

State Keeping Football In Family RALEIGH — Wlien N. C. State's footbaU team leaves the practice field, it usually heads for a cafe teria meal. For a numbi-r of rea sons, it would be nice if the food was M-rved family style. Family style is i-e.-tainly the ftishicn in the \VoII;)a:k camp this fall with no le.ss thtin nine individuals having a relative al- .so involved with with the State grid pragram. No matter how they eat, this year's Wolfpack features the heaviest and liglit- est sets of brothers ever to don the red and white—and the only- twins ever to play f(,r,t:ball at State-.
