Oxford Favored
To Defeat Jax
Here Tonight

The visiting team from Ok :
ford is expected to be a two-to-
three touchdown favorite here
tonight, when the Roanoke
Rapids High School Yellow Jack
cts clash with Oxford High
School at eight o'cloc kat Sim
mons Park in a non-conference
football game.
The local Jackets have been
"beefed up" somewhat this week
by the addition of IA of the top
men from the winning junior
varsity team and have been look
ing a little better in their prac-
tice sessions here this week.
Coach Dan eagle said he
would like to pull an upset over
the favored visitors, but said the
Oxford team has complied "a
good record over the season..
eagle will be hampered by the
injuries which have dogged his
squad most Of the season and
several of the regulars who, if
they see action at all, will be
working under a handicap of
having been in light equipemnt
most of the week.
Earl Rook, the Jacket end
whose pass catch was the dif-
ference between a victory and
scoreless tie with the Elizabeth
City Jackets in one of the two
games the locals have won, will
probably not even get into the
lineup because of a knee injury
her received here last Friday
night against Washington.
Co-captain Vance Stewart who
has been carrying the brunt of
the Jacket attack most of the
season, has been forced to take
it easy this week because of
bad shoulder which he received
in the Washington game. Billy
Clemmer, another regular start
er in the Jacket backfield, still
shows signs of the wear and
shows signs of the wear and
tear he received in the game
with New Bern, and Dwight Eli
ing, stellar line player, is still
bothered by a recurrent ankle
which has given him trouble
most of the season.
Oxford seems ready to roll to
another team victory which has
already won them games over
such stalwarts as Oxford Orph-
anage and Henderson High
School in the strong North Caro-
lima Conference.
Prospects are for a wet field,
fact which should hold down
some of the high scoring and
should move the heavy Jackets
into position to pull the upset Of
the season.

Enfield Downs Aurelian Springs 1913

Aurelian Springs - The En-
field High School football team
turned on a hgh-powered at
tack in the last quarter here
today to run their undefeated
victory to nine straight games
and drop Aurelian Springs from
the ranks of the undefeated in
a 1918 triumph.
The locals were holding a
third period lead and seemed
to have an upset victory within
their grasp until Enfield started
a sustained drive and a few
minutes later recovered fun
bled punt deep in Aurelian
Springs territory.
1t was hard-fought game all
the way through, and both team
went all out to win it. The En-
field team was hard-pressed to
keep its record unbroken and it
was the hardest game of the
season for each of the squads.
Enfield started things off in
the first period by scoring on
a pass play which went from
Eddie Hickman to Stan Viver-
cite, for a touchdown. they
were unable to hold the lead
for long, however, because Aur-
elan Springs fought right back
and got well into the ball game
when Coleman Best threw
a long pass to Linwood Carter
to net 40 yards on the play and
come up even in the touchdown
column.
Both teams battled up and
down the field all the way
through the second quarter with
neither able to push over a
score.

Headlining the All-Star week.
end card is the battle at Cha
pei Hill between the un-beaten,
united North Carolina Tar
Heels and the twice-beaten, but
still hopeful William and Mary
Indians. 1t will be do or die for
the Indians, who won the 1947
conference crown, but who have
been in and out all through the
1948 season.
Sharing the spotlight will be
the Duke-Wake Forest fracas at
Durham. Both the Blue Devils
and the Deacons still have a
chance to bring home the 1948
conference championship. Only
tie with N. C. State spots the
Duke record inside the circuit,
while the Deacons have lost one
in four outings.
Undefeated Clemson tangles
with Furman in another Satur-
day feature. The Tigers are
heavy favorites to keep their re-
cord unblemished against the
punchless Purple Hurricane.

That is precisely what the
Virginians have in mind for

pal, fullback Hosea Rodgers,

Cloud.

BY the Guessing Ghost

Well, the Ghost got through a
little more luckily last week,
with winning teams holding
fairly true to form even this
late in the season. The guessing
was thrown only by three miss
es, including one by the Roa-
noke Rapids Yellow Jackets who
were beaten after having been
made pre-game favorites by the
Ghost. Still, the average round
ed out for $3.50 for the week,
which will have to do until
something better comes along.
There are plenty of games
: promising action this weekend
including one here in Roanoke
Rapids and with nine major
teams in college circles still un-
beaten things are looking like
they will level off. If those
whose records show they are
good keep on in their level the
Ghost has a chance of getting
through without failing COM
pletely.
Anyhow, here goes another

Tar Heels Seek Fourteenth Triumph
Against William And Mary Indians

Chapel Hill, Nov. 5-(AP)-
Having ridden out the 13 jinx
with it's 18th straight victory
last week at Tennessee, North

Of asserting itself in the South

Starting with tomorrow's
game here against William and
Mary, the Tar Heels have three
Maryland and Duke following
in order.
Carl Snavely's team, ap-
parently Sugar Bowl-bound,
has good reason to be up for
this one. A year ago the Tar
Heels, after dropping two of
their first three games, found
themselves against the Indians
and registered 1877 victory,
the first of the 13-game string.
But despite that conquest of the
Virginians, the men of SnaveIy
finished behind them in final
conference standings. William
and Mary, playing more con-
ference games, had final II
record. North Cardinals mark
was Al and, on percentage, the

when another pass play from
Best to Carter put them ahead,
with Carter catching the pass
and scoring for the second time.
Enfield was still determined
however, and in the fourth quar-
ter, they started sustained
drive which the Aurelian Springs
defenders could not halt. The
more-experienced Enfielders
drove down the field and scored
on an end-around play with
Wood carrying for the tally.
Later in the period near the
end of the ball game Arthur
Wollett went back deep into
his own territory for a punt and
fumbled it to set the stage for
the final and winning touch
down for the visitors. The eli
max came with Alton Gossett
taking the ball on an eight-yard
line play which moved into pay
dirt.
1t was Aurelisn Springs first
setback after five straight vic
tories during their second sea-

was their ninth triumph in a
