DAVIDSON MEETS
STATE IN RALEIGH
Game Carded' for Riddick
Field Under Lights;
Pack Eyes Lafferty

College Station, Raleigh, Sept. "a.
"A heavier and more powerful Dav-
idson team, paced in the backfield by
Teeny Lafferty and in the line by
Captain big Six" Johnson, meets N.
C. State here Saturday night at 8
o'clock in Riddick Stadium in
game that has all the trimmings of
a mid-season tilt
The Wildcats have the heaviest
team they have had in years and
Coach Hunk Anderson of State says
it is the best defensive team he has
seen developed at the Presbyterian
school. Captain Johnson is the ace
man in the line and is considered by
Doc Newton of Davidson the finest
guard he ever coached.
Coach Anderson saw Davidson bat
tie Duke almost to a standstill Sat-
urday night in Greensboro and he
marveled at the power of the 1886
Davidson team. He liked the entire
club, especially the line play of John
son and that of Williams, powerful
left end.
The State coach considers Teeny
Lafferty the best back Davidson has
had since he has been in North Caro-
lima and Anderson came to this State
in 1884. Anderson says Lafferty runs
fast and as hard as Johnny Macko-
rel, Davidson backfield star of a few
years ago. Lafferty also is an excel
lent passer and kicker.
Anderson is looking for a great bat
tie here Saturday night. He expects
an even tougher game than last year

RED RAIDERS ARE
VERY GAY DRESSERS

Halton, N. Y, Sept 24-When Col
gates Red Raiders trot out against
the Duke Blue Devils in Durham
Saturday afternoon they will be wear
ing new suits-suits that have never
been worn before in a game.
The pants will be red, striped with
white. The jerseys will be white strip
ed with maroon and the head-gears
will be pure white and enameled a.
new just before the game.
Most of the shoes will be new
and those that aren't will be espe-
cially polished for the occasion.
Manager Bill Baker of Norfolk has
had assistant managers working
nights this week to have all the equip
ment in perfect shape, for Bill, like
most of those connected with football
at Colgate, is proud of the appear
ance of the team. He wants the play
ers to live up to their reputation as
"the dudes of the gridiron."

from the two sections together.
Of course, the non-betters can see
that those Red Raiders and those
Blue Devils are going to put on quite
an afternoon of football In Duke Sta
dunn Saturday. 1t appears that the
two teams are just about evenly
matched. The battle Of the fragile
dazzle" VS. the orthodox" sizes up as
some scrap.
There is a news reel circulating
through the theatres in the state that
may bring big drop in the stock
of the Blue Devils. It did with a lot
of folks in Durham when shown in
a local movie house.
The reel pictured the Red Raiders
at top speed with their laterals and
many of the people in this city who
saw it left the theatre agreeing with
the Colgate press agent who says
the Blue Devils will be chasing
ghosts" in Duke stadium Saturday
afternoon.

Duke And Colgate Teams
Stack Up About Even

Durham, Sept. M-It's q odd thing
how football games stack up to the
fans-even more peculiar when two
teams, geographically far apart, meet
as early in the season as Duke and
Colgate.
For instance, folks up New York
way like very much the Red Raiders
so much, in fact, that they are will
ing to spot from to Is points or will
give mighty fine odds that the razzle
dazzle boys, who have turned in one
of the sweetest records in the east
since 1929, will board their train Sat
urday night on the long end of the
score.
Now, these southern fans are just
about as optimistic about Duke. They
figure they can safely give seven
points and they may stretch it a point
and give some good odds.
That's what's rather odd about the
situation. Maybe some means should
be figured out to get the partisans

j. N. c. BACKS SHAPE
UP FOR DEACONS
Tom Burnett Likely To Start
at Half With Little,
Cernugle and Hutchins

Chapel Hill, Sept. 24-Unless the
Carolina coaching staff has reason to
change it's collective mind, the back

rade Saturday in their opener with
Wake Forest in Charlotte's Memorial
Stadium at 2:3O o'clock will he COM
posed of Crowell Little, quarterback;
Tom Burnette and Tony Cernugle,
halfbacks, and Jim Hutchins, full
back.
Prior to Monday this quartet hadn't
teamed together in a single practice.
Brunette had been alternating with
Dashiell and Little at the quarter
posts, and had worked in the No. 1,
and backfields.
But a 1ull-length game between
Teams No 1 and Saturday apparent
ly convinced the coaches that Bur

Tarboro boy was classed with the IL
backs who participated in the scrim-
mage session.

quently for long runs. His punting
surpassed that of Crowell Little, field
general of the No. club and his pass

of Titles, nevertheless was creditable
Brunette turned in the feature play
of the game. Late in the second quar-
| ter he received Titles punt on his
own 80, cut to the sidelines, eluding
Bershak and Buck, ends; and raced
| 70 yards for a touchdown.
The addition of Burnette to the No.

punting. Little and Burnette are triple

both block WELL Hutchins rates with
Dixie's best as line-buster, and Ger

Coach Wolf has another backfield
ready to relieve the No. 1 crew. It
consists of Dick Dashiell, quarter;
Bob Stewart and George Watson, half
backs and Art Dit, fullback. Stewart
and Dit were particularly impressive
last Saturday. Stewart scored one
touchdown by intercepting a pass and
running Is yards for touchdown.
Dit topped all backs with reference
to ground gaining and was regular
demon on defense. He stopped the
No. 2 backs for frequent losses.
Advance seat sales indicate a SELL
out for the Charlotte game, although
plenty of good seats were still avail
able today. The stadium seats b.

ton every seat is about as good as
those on the SO yard line.

TWO WEEKS DRILLS
PUTS BOYS IN SHAPE
Tommy Jenkins Slated AS
Starter at Center; Guard
Post Still Disputed; Nit
chell and Vaughan at
Tackles; Roanoke Rapids
CONSTANT Winner From
Locals

Latham l.. "Bing' Miller new ath-
letic director at Henderson high
school, will send his 1886 edition of
Bulldog gridiron warriors into battle
tomorrow afternoon in Roanoke
Rapids in opposition to the strong
Yellow Jacket eleven from the banks
of the Roanoke.
Miller has been working his charges
for the past two weeks, whipping
them into shape for their opener. The
mentor worked his boys yesterday
rather lightly after hard scrimmage
session Tuesday. The grdders went
through their PAGES in punting, pass
ing and signal drills with stress be-
ing put on kickoff formations, return
ing of kicks and snagging of passes.
A signal drill today ended prepare
tons for the coming tilt.
Constant shifting of the boys from
the first string ineup during the
past week has enabled Miller to get
slant on the best talent for the
starting call.
During the week, Tommy Jenkins.
$50 FOUNDER, has won a first string
berth at center, replacing the lighter
Robert Rideout, hard fighter.
In scanning the prospects for the
starting lineup, it appears that Billy
Aston and "Hink" Stewart will start
at the flank posts, while Billy Vaug-
han and Jack Mitchell, two of the
heaviest men on the squad, will be at
the tackle posts; Gene Patterson will
handle one Of the guard posts with
Billy Dennis and Alex Davis fighting
it out for the other Hunk" Coghill
was tried in that position, but Miller
saw fit to hold him as reserve back
field material leaving that berth open
for a big fight. William Windley and
William Gambler are candidates for
end jobs, and are giving the regulars
a tough time to get the call against
Fridays foe.
In the backfield, Captain Lefty
Ayscue will be at his regular half
back post with Sammy Nichols call
ing the signals from quarterback.
Durwood Turner, one of the deadliest
tacklers on the team, will be at the
other half and Mule" Peace, the
heavy boy that plows line like a
furrow, will be at full. Held in re-
serve for the backfield will be Cog
hill, Billy Dunn, Linwood Lewis,
Sonny Cooper and w. Haithcock.
In past years, the Yellow Jackets
have defeated Henderson rather con-
sistently, but the Bulldogs are out
this year to avenge previous defeats

Using Canned Foods

Using Canned Foods
The entire contents of cans contain
ing fruits and vegetables is placed
there for use. 1t would be wasteful to
throw away even the liquor. The min
eral salts and the other soluble sub
stances which the peas, beans, and
other vegetables possess partially es-
cape into the water while cooking, so
that the flavor and SAVIOR Of the vege-
table is impaired if the liquor is dis
carded. Cook the vegetable in it's
liquor, use the latter for making the
sauce or dressing; or, if the vegetable
is to be served in some way not re-
quiring sauce, reserve the liquid for
a soup, salads or sauces. It becomes
difficult at times to find variety of
ways to serve canned goods. The fol-
lowing recipes are suggestive of diff
ferent methods.
Carrots Baked
Butter baking dish. Put in lay
ed of diced carrots. Season. Cover with
medium white sauce; add a layer of
bread crumbs. Dot with butter. Con-
tinue until the dish is full to within
one inch of the top. Bake 80 minutes in
moderately hot oven.
Peas and Cheese
cups canned peas, tablespoons
chopped parsley, 1 cup grated Ameri-
can cheese, 6 tablespoons cooking fat,
10 bread squares about 21a inches,
thick, X teaspoon salt, 4 teaspoon
paprika, 1-6 teaspoon pepper.
Cook peas in their own juice until
partly dry, add chopped parsley and
cook until almost dry. Add half the
fat, cheese, salt and pepper. Scoop out
centers of bread squares, brush over
with the remaining fat and brown in a
hot oven. Fill centers of bread squares
with peas, replace in oven and heat I'M
til the cheese is melted. This will serve
five to six.
String Beans, Sour Sauce
2 cups canned string beans, table
spoon butter or cooking fat, 1 table
spoon flour, 1 tablespoon vinegar,
egg, salt and pepper.
Heat the beans in their own liquor,
add the butter and -four blended, also
vinegar and seasoning. Simmer several
minutes, then add egg, well beaten and
serve Immediately.
Tomatoes with Baked Beans
2 cups baked beans, 2 cups canned
tomatoes, 1 onion.
Place the beans and tomatoes in
layers in a baking dish, sprinkling
each layer with the chopped onion.
Bake 20 minutes in a moderate oven.

LIVING LESS HAZARDOUS
NOW THAN 20 YEARS AGO
Steady Improvement in Staying
Qualities of Babies In State

Babies who select Maryland for their
place of abode find the business of liv-
ing much less hazardous than it was
for their predecessors of twenty years
ago. There has been steady improve
ment, year by year, but the young
sters born in Maryland last year estab-
lished a new record for the staying
qualities of these young citizens-the
best they have ever reached.
A report issued by DR.. R. H. Riley,
Director of the State Department of
Health, gives these figures, taken from
the records of the State Bureau of vi
tai Statistics in 1916-twenty years
ago-one baby out of every eight born
that year, died before it was year old.
Last year just half that number-one
in 16 born-were unable to survive the
perils of infancy and died before it
had rounded out the first year of life.
In 1916, 27,305 births and 2,745 deaths
of babies under year old-121 deaths
in each thousand born alive-were re-
corded in the State. Last year there
were 1880 births and only 1893 in
FAINT deaths in the State, that is, 62
baby deaths in each thousand born
alive. The records show that fewer ba-
bies were born in 1885 than in 1916, in
proportion to population, but in each
thousand born alive twice as many
survived.
Speaking of the significance of these
figures, DR.. ]. H. M. Knox, Jr, Chief
of the Bureau of Child Hygiene
of the Bureau of Vital Statistics, show
US that very encouraging progress has
been made in conserving the lives of
little citizens of Maryland. But they
reveal other things also. If we look
more deeply into the figures we can see
where the greatest gains have been
made and where only a little has been
accomplished.
"Of the 1893 deaths under a year
old in the State last year, 924 occurred
in the counties-or 68 among every
one thousand infants born alive. AL
though this proportion is lower than
that recorded for any previous year
it is still unnecessarily high. Of these
infants, 143, or more than Is per cent
succumbed to diarrheal conditions
which are largely preventable.
"The number of infant deaths pei
1000 born alive varied among the coun-
ties, from 40 to Ill. In five counties OF
the State the rate was in excess of 100
That is, out of every ten babies born
one died in its first year. 1t is evident
that in these areas more united efforts
on behalf of mothers and infants must
be made"
