They turned to see whopping

and missed, Wilson tossed a rock
for ball two and then Burk con-
nected with another rock to stop
the critter.
He was big game, too, weighing

Lansing Will Play Mountain

Meet at Mountain City. Lost
Game Last Friday Night
To GalaX, 10 to O.

The Lansing Skylanders meet
an old gridiron rival, the Noun
tain City crushers, tomorrow af-
ternoon on the Mountain City
football field.
In spite of defeat last Friday
night by a strong Galax, Va,
eleven, the Skylanders are favor
ed to win tomorrow.
The galax game was original
ly scheduled to be played at Lam
sing, but the school officials de-
cided best to move it to Virginia
after receiving an attractive fl
nancial offer to make the change.
Playing at night was. a partial
handicap to Coach Morphis' boys
and Galax scored in the first few
minutes of the game when
"Bung" Sutherland, Galax half
back, hurled a 40-yard pass to
Coomes, left end, and on the next
play, Adams went over for
touchdown. Leonard's kick for
the extra point was good and the
score was to 0 until near the
end of the second quarter when
Adams again went over for an
other touchdown.
The third quarter was score
less, but the Grayson boys regis
tered six more points in the fl
nal period.
Lansing made several splendid
gains, but were unable to crash
through for a score. They made
8 first downs to Galax's three,
A number of tough breaks cost
Lansing victory against Marion,
Va, high the previous FRIDAY
when the final score was 0 to 0.

chuckled pleasantly in relating
how, in 1867, group of unionists
came with their flag to stage a

had taken most of the able bod

people became afraid of what the

Josh Baker, a former sheriff OF
the county, tore the flag down,
stamped up and down on it and
ordered the invaders to leave.
They left without further activi-
