But be fore the game was over, _ the Red Skins had practically fallen apart as they lost 18-7. Quickly rolling up five first downs after the kick off, the Red Skins were finally stopped by Central on their five yard line. In the second quarter Coy Tillett Jr. intercepted a Central pass and raced 65-yard for a touchdown. Randie Houstin added the extra point, but these seven points were the only scoring done by Manteo. A few plays later Coy Tillett, the Red Skin’s first string quarterback and ace passer was injured and taken out of the game. This slowed down Manteo’s attack somewhat. Even though he tried to play later in the game, Coy had to come out and it was later learned that he had a chipped knee. He will be unable to play for the rest of the season. Manteo had the lead 7-6 at half time. Late in the third quarter Man teo’s big fullback and great line backer, Allen Dough, was injured and came out of the game with a broken leg. Central scored two touch downs in the third quarter which gave them the 18-7 win. Tillett and Dough wlil both be out of action for the rest of the season. In addition to these two Randie Houston received a head injury and will be out for a while, Ephraim Midgett 220 lb. tackle and Hughes Tillett, half back are lost due to ineligibility. It is the opinion of many that the game Friday night was unneces sarily rough and that the referees did not call an accurate game. This week, Manteo faces the strongest team they have faced this year when they play Hertford at the Manteo field. With three of his first string backfield in jured, Coach Ayers will have to use St. Clair Basnight as quarter back and use freshmen Jack Wood and Jeffrey Midgett in the back field. He will also possibly use .Ronald Cox, tackle, at the full back position. Game time is 8:00.

Presentation of this award will be made in November and Morris will go to Chapel Hill to appear on the program for this ceremony at the request of Trail mobile and the ATA Foundation. The editor of the Index started his career as a front page column ist for the Coastland Newspapers, owned and published by Victor Meekins of Manteo. His column, The Old Country Store was a front page feature of the Coastland Times, the Hyde County ’ Herald and Belhaven Pilot for a number of years. He took the job on the Index, July 15, 1950. His news paper career has been strictly self-directed, he said, as he had no previous experience before coming to th» Index. He said last week that his big gest success was his regular week ly column, Human Interest, which appears on the editorial page of all four papers of the Parker Bros. Inc., group. In 1955, the In dex was third place winner in press photography in North Caro lina for weeklies. Morris went to Chapel Hill last January to re ceive the award from the North Carolina Press Association. Gov ernor Hodges made the presenta tion on live television. He does all jf the photography for the Index, [ shooting, developing, printing and , jngraving all pictures. Since of his news paper career, his editorial policy has been simply “help the needy” and promote highway safety. He •has literally raised thousands of dollars to help the less fortunate in Gates and adjoining counties. To promote highway safety, he went out on North Carolina high ways with State Patrolmen day and night for several weeks and covered all wrecks and fatalities with pictures and stories. He cov ered the Cates County Safety Campaign of last May which re sulted in the county winning first place in the nation for counties under 25,000.
