The announcement caused q
great deal Of curiosity from To-
cal football enthusiasts, and
the letters streaming in to the

just an indication of the wide
spread interest.
Fans are requesting contests

The Tileston pigskinners concen-

Quarterback Charles Bordeaux, re-

kept the Beach boys we'll out of

all-important conflict.
Tileston clinched the county title
midway in the final stanza when
another long drive placed the ball
on the Carolina Beach six yard

Batson and Bordeaux paced the

Carolina Beach under the tutel-
age of David Sparks, is not the first
eleven to find the Tileston defense
