Lincolnton and Stanley high

beaten records when they clash in
a non-conference game on the
Stanley field Friday night.
Each have played two games to
date. won both. Stanley racked up
Mt Holly. 1876. in their opener
and polished off Maiden. 27-0 last
week. Lincolnton took TaylorSville
in their first game. 1876, and fol-
lowed up with an upset over their
arch rival, Cherryville, 26-6, last
week. BY comparative scores, this
lives Stanley an edgc of Z points
extensively. and points defensive
ly.
Lincolnton is member of the
Glass AA Southwestern Confer
ence; Stanley. a member of the
Glass A CASTOR county loop.
Coach Frank King of the Line
WOlfpack isn't taking the STAN
ley game lign.sy, and figures his
team will have to play on a par
with their performance of last
week if they expect to win. He
has high respect for the heavy
Stanley line and their triple
threat back, Handsel.
The game probably will develop
into a duel between the top backs
of the two elevens - Dave Nc
Cullough of Lincolnton and Hand
sci of Stanley. Handsel has been a
"one-man team in the two STAN
ley triumphs to date. Mccullough.
